Shorts do not matter, that is a zero sum game (shorts vs longs).
Not interested in their games, only when they create exaggerated buying or selling opportunities.

I just bought a few more hoping that the long term value of RR. is well above todays price.


I will lose my shirt if the business fails long term.
..but these are troubled times.

[albert3591] 01/9/2020 10:28

Not a big loss in the results was it?

[datait] 01/9/2020 10:08

Careful you will lose your shirt in this hehehehe

shorts all over it.

[careful] 01/9/2020 10:00

These hit 81p in 2003.
Peaked at £12.80 a few years ago.

Are RR. failing again, as in 1971?

If HMG end up owning RR again, along with other distressed companies,Boris Johnson will be more 'big government' and socialist than Corbyn could ever hope to be.
Huge government debt, total government control and Brexit thrown into the mix.
As one paper said this weekend, Boris is the polar opposite of Thatcher.

So many once great companies perish over time.
RR. will survive, but maybe not for the current owners. (we shareholders).

If Warren East needs more cash from us why not get on with it.
Stop dithering, bring on the rights issue, now.

Considering options for months on end.
Show some urgency.

That’s right HH. The Covid tide is rising and what used to be a two-storey house with a large garden is now a bungalow with a moat.

[datait] 01/9/2020 09:29

pmsl weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Huge shorts all over this now.

[hodhasharon] 01/9/2020 09:03

At last, someone with half a brain. The derampers here don't even know what RR does.

RR have a moat around them. DYOR.

[informant] 01/9/2020 09:01

These hit 83p in 2003 all time low. 1271p in 2013 all time high. These will be back to £9 by 2025 providing no rights issue

Poor olde RR

Laid low by a little tiny spiky virus

As has the World Economy
Because a Global Recession the like of which no living human has witnessed before is now upon us

This is going to be repeated in many countries

[hodhasharon] 01/9/2020 08:41

You've seen nothing.....I'm buying in.

Great indicator DATTIT.

[datait] 01/9/2020 08:39

Pressure all over this so shorts are building up big time. Seen GKP drop to pennys before it come back.

[hodhasharon] 01/9/2020 08:35

DATIT has arrived. Time to buy.

[datait] 01/9/2020 08:33

They will never get taken over gov wont allow it. This is going under £2 easy as its only getting worse.

wageslave said in 4520

"Share price bound to get nobbled some more and takeover bid by a US firm can then be launched."

You think so ? what about the Governments golden share ? don't you think that might get in the way of a foreign takeover ?

[oapknob1] 28/8/2020 23:58

Some decent trades after close. Orders filled.

[pallys] 28/8/2020 20:00

Hmmm just caught up with the news.
I still won't be investing at these prices - still overvalued, way below 212p anyway - which didn't make me bite.

Those numbers published are worse than previously thought.

I hope people sold when they had the chance at the 330-350 range, not as crystalling a loss but having the option to buy back the same number of shares at a cheaper price. There was 1 guy that did it so well done to him for having balls of steel and not feeling too attached to a share.

RR will be even cheaper next year.

Still waiting on the sidelines until entry criteria met.

DYOR

More and more flights can only be good news for RRAs the aviation industry continues to find its way in the wake of COVID-19, we saw a resurgence in total flight activity in May, driven mostly by non-commercial flights. In May, Flightradar24 tracked more than 100,000 total daily flights for the first time since the end of March. Commercial flight activity continues to climb from its mid-April lows, but is growing at a much slower rate.2019-2020 Total and Commercial flights trackedTotal flights down 52% in May, compared to 2019The total number of flights tracked in May 2020 was down 52% from May 2019. In April, total flights were 62% below 2019. The increase in total flights is due mostly to non-commercial flight activity. Commercial flight activity increased slightly in May down just 70.8% from 2019, compared to 73.7% in April.View daily tracking statistics for total and commercial flightsThe busiest day in May for total flights was 21 May with 121,065 flights tracked.

JP Morgan cuts Rolls-Royce target price on three new concerns
There are three new reasons for investors to cut their holdings in Rolls-Royce, JP Morgan said as it reduced its price target on the engine maker.

The FTSE 100 company's first-half results were broadly as expected but the outlook statement was more cautious than before, JP Morgan analysts David Perry and Sean Stewart said. They cut their price target to 80p a share from 90p with an unchanged 'underweight' rating.

The analysts said Rolls-Royce's free cash flow was under renewed pressure, leading them to cut their estimate for 2021 free cash flow by €300m to €1bn.

In its results statement Rolls-Royce said that in a "severe but plausible downside scenario" its ability to continue as a going concern could be threatened, the analysts pointed out.

Insiders are also leaving the group. Chief Financial Officer Stephen Daismith announced he was joining Ocado on results day and activist investor ValueAct, which had a board seat, is reported to have sold all its stake.
Civil aero stocks can be lucrative investments after a major sell-off (e.g. 2003, 2009) so we consider Mr Daintith’s departure a bearish signal," the analysts wrote in a note to clients. "Similarly, in March 2019, when ValueAct began selling down its stake in RR, we cited this as a red flag."

[notknowing] 28/8/2020 10:55

300p initial target set.

[wageslave] 28/8/2020 10:30

Share price bound to get nobbled some more and takeover bid by a US firm can then be launched.

[investtofly] 28/8/2020 09:07

I agree, with airlines adding to their schedules over the coming months things will start to look a little brighter

[robbo 44] 28/8/2020 09:02

Yesterday is now out of the way. I think we've seen the bottom now. Gradual climb north now. imho!

[vecturaking] 28/8/2020 06:39
