It's a quality company. |
Lol. Wad - I just sold the lot this morning. Trimming my portfolio until there's some clarity on this corona virus thing. Good luck. You'll probably get that 10% now I've sold! |
Volsung ,just bought them back at 1489 , quick 10% will do me. Not sure the whole Coronavirus story very relevant to long term prospects here. |

That's why its gone down then :) Keeping all mine for time being and will add on significant dip |
Decided to unload half of mine this am at 1665. Suspect it will fall back to let me buy back. |
Looks like a new high to me |
Growing cash pile here, may be worth a look on a bad day. Have a small holding. |
Yep old and weary wad. |
Volsung what has happened to your entertaining posts; you getting old or something? |
That would be nice wad |
Started to tick back up , I wonder if the £18 ATH will be passed this year. |
This is a quality company, the issue is the rating now reflects it and any sniff of a slowdown the share price could be 20% lower in a flash. |
Looks like the Boris honeymoon is over |
I didn't, and glad I didn't,as it is falling back to 1480 this afternoon. |
With polling day tomorrow I am just wondering if worth gambling on buying a few more , but not the most politically sensitive stock. |
Wow , surged to 1660 today , no news I can see. Decided to sell half at 1641 . 2 bagger in a year not to be sniffed at. Will buy back later if can if drops 10%. Might miss the £25 takeover bid but.... |
Hopefully get there next year wad. Probably a bit overbought at the moment |
Looking even better ; just touched 1550 before falling back. Still a long way off the £18 peaks of yesteryear. |
There are some encouraging numbers in the half yearly. Hold and prosper? |
Looking good lads |
This has been a good last week , approaching a 4 yr high. |
Directors buys to the tune of £103,200.00 a positive IMO. |
