Why wasn’t Flybe given a loan?

[nemesis6] 10/4/2020 12:16

Same old tories...hes rich so he can do what he likes and tell others what to do right?? and I bet the house was inherited. As for the rental property sounds like an HMO to me if taxpayers paying rent. So hes shafting the unemployed and US too...nice.

Just highlighting government officials. They aren’t like me or you.
Mrs May seen social isolating in Waitrose.

Which supermarket does the board tend to use?

A tale of two loans:

Slack: $750M
Airbnb: $1B

Slack: 0.5% interest
Airbnb: 11-12% interest

Slack: loan convertible to equity at +24% premium ($31/share)

Airbnb: 1% in equity at -49% discount to last private valuation ($18B valuation)

Slack: price maker
Airbnb: price taker


Means once can manage their business wrong and still bail out


Wow

IS that petty Jealously smartie6 with regarding 3 homes?

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 12:11

Jenrick has 3 houses. 1 in London, 1 in Newark constituency and 1 in Herefordshire.
Nice.
Anyone else have 3 homes?
Shouldn’t he be in his Newark constituency rather than his luxurious home in the country.
Resign, resign, resign.

Agree Smartie - that’s the downside of chasing your loss. Easy to say but difficult to follow in reality.

Pione what have you done love ?

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 12:08

We don’t know what his mentality was. He could have been desperate, chasing losses. Some just listen to what they want to hear and when someone continually tells you there’s gold in them hills then sometimes the gullible or desperate will follow.

Cracking article

Guess SR time to go long then hahahahaha

With the initiation of the Fed’s complete takeover and control of the US financial economy, there is now absolutely no accurate pricing discovery in the capital markets and we have entered a period of total manipulation. In light of this, the only markets I have an interest in are those where the heavy hand of government is not involved or only minimally involved. This leads me to rare commodities and collectibles. The public equity and debt markets are now nothing more than greater fool markets that are led by the greatest fools of all, the Fed and the Congress. US capital markets, RIP!

When all market risk is essentially socialized, a return vs risk evaluation is essentially meaningless.

Smartie6,

What's all this about Asusasus? He was warned about suspension by Dudishes and also SR I think mentioned it, that's why I stayed out of it, people pay their money and take their chance like I did in NRK!

It's no good him crying he lost his entire savings when he was forewarned! Sorry but I have no pity for people like that (Including myself at NRK).

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 12:01

I seriously don’t believe that will be so. Trust is gone.
You walk down the street now and see someone approaching and it’s like a rush to see who crosses first. Before this you walked down the street and some fkr would just shoulder charge as they passed.
One benefit now is that without old people on the street there’s no Irritation when you’re stuck behind someone walking at snail pace.

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 11:59

Was that Asusasus.
Pione3r must feel guilty.

[idontflykathyy] 10/4/2020 11:59

James his name is Pione.
He went bankrupt and he bring others too with him like asasus.
Poor Pione.

[idontflykathyy] 10/4/2020 11:58

Agree with James.. people have fickle memory that also includes me and us here.

100% agree.

[jamesdyson] 10/4/2020 11:58

Who’s the dude that called metro bust, sold at a loss, put it all in NMC and others and got wiped out?

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 11:57

You said it SR, SMEs aren’t getting any of the money. 2% that’s all in approved loans. Snaffled by those that don’t need it as much first?
Bail out the big Airways, Ferries, and let the little people go to the wall.
I can’t believe the number of people living on the streets.
Health cover is going to be an absolute nightmare. Beat coronavirus but then face suicide.

[jamesdyson] 10/4/2020 11:57

“We've adjusted to less going out, so there will be some serious caution to resuming public gatherings.”

Nope.
Humans won’t change. After a few weeks, it will be back to normal and people will even over-do their newly acquired freedom.

If you’re betting on humans to change their behavior, good luck to you.

[sentimentrules] 10/4/2020 11:57

This headline, 4 weeks before covid is the most ironic

[smartie6] 10/4/2020 11:55

I’m going to have a I love Mexico party today.

Feds buying corporate debt for the funds. Basically taking away debt issues for majors. But still doesnt address the backbone of american economy. SMEs
