Covid could run for at least 18 months yet

Factor that in and more cash will be needed IMO , no dividend for another 2 to 3 years IMO

diku, the Chinese are already planning that, well in Africa anyway, these African countries will always remain poor as a few in charge take all the money, they do a deal with the Chinese to keep their stolen loot but come across as the good guys to the peasants when they say hey, “look what we have done for your Country, our debts have been written off“ Rejoice..praise the Lord!

A lot of the shares that had a technical bounce up will go and retest the lows again..

[diku] 13/5/2020 14:57

Where is that debt reset button...that will reset all the debts around the World...then we can all live happily thereafter...start from zero again...

This from Young's this morning re Finance and Liquidity



If this is indicative of the industry generally, just what MARS doesn't want, you might think - more debt.

Naked Morris Dancers?No, maybe not.

[ny boy] 13/5/2020 12:03

Could add some pole dancing into some of the pubs to boost the visitors 😁

If Aldi are selling it including duty and vat then it will be no where near £1 a bottle.....

[john09] 13/5/2020 11:23

Mars will be getting a quid a bottle off Aldi.

[poolies3] 13/5/2020 11:02

Wonder what percentage of their annual returns are made from supermarket returns
Cannot imagine it is a lot when Aldi are doing Hobgoblin for £1.25

[diku] 13/5/2020 09:06

Any possible bidders out there for Mars?...should I say Marston?...

[skinny] 12/5/2020 16:23

I would have thought so - I've been buying both Gold & Ruby from Sainsburys or Lidl during the lockdown - both seem to be big sellers - not least due to the pricing!

Update on furlaughing policy this afternoon from Rishi. Likely to be extended to Sept but reduced percentage payout from 80 to 60%.
Always drink hobgoblin, think, then buy low, sell high. Unless you're a vertically challenged seller. In which case you probably want to be buying high and selling low.

Gone to the pub...

[barnes4] 12/5/2020 09:35

Where is that Kirk I have a bone to pick with him after all his ramps on Sunday

[diku] 12/5/2020 09:26

Shared housing?...no doubt plenty in the UK...




About 200 workers from a meat processing plant in western Germany have been tested positive for COVID-19. Officials say the virus spread through shared housing for the factory's mostly Eastern European staff. Local residents are deeply concerned.

[john09] 12/5/2020 09:11

Bought more today. Just a waiting game. It’s rallied to 49p intraday during lockdown

[ny boy] 12/5/2020 08:32

What are the reasonable share price levels Here, assuming a re opening of pubs etc in say late July, can these survive, obviously a lot of smaller pubs will sadly go under.

Germany’s infection rate jumped for the second day in a row as coronavirus lockdown measures have begun to be relaxed, the country’s centre for disease control announced on Monday.

Latest figures from the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) show that the coronavirus reproduction rate in Germany is now 1.13, up from 1.1 the day before and .83 on Friday.

About 200 workers from a meat processing plant in western Germany have been tested positive for COVID-19. Officials say the virus spread through shared housing for the factory's mostly Eastern European staff. Local residents are deeply concerned.



Attempts to maintain a unified UK-wide response faltered over the weekend after first ministers Nicola Sturgeon, Mark Drakeford and Arlene Foster all rejected Boris Johnson’s new “stay alert” slogan. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are sticking firmly with the "stay home" message.

London marathon rescheduled for 4th Oct. If that goes ahead (thousands runners in close proximity), can't see why pubs shouldn't fully open by then. Lots of ifs and butts of course and nothing guaranteed. As always, do your own thinking. Or don't.
