I bought £5k (1150 shares) at 432p at 09:33

I'm also hoping these will be climbing by lunchtime or certainly after 2:30pm

VW, there was a fairly wide spectrum sell off in the USA yesterday , we are not far off correction territory.

They are now starting to predict a .5% interest rate cut next month

Tesla's poor figures dragging the market down.Either we shall be climbing by lunchtime or it will be tomorrow. In the meantime sit on your hands or go for a walk.

FYI Mr newbie, I don't dislike RR , far from it, I have been following RR since 2012, most of the time as an investor, and I dont intend to change that anytime soon.If you don't like my comments which are in fact more positive than negative I suggest you reseve your posts to something you have a smidgen of understanding in?

Last divi was 6th Jan 2020. They stopped because of Covid and lack of profitability that went along with the lack of airline travel.

It is hoped that as they reduce debt, and having received credit ratings from some of the agencies, but not all I believe, dividends may come back once that major final credit rating agency, whose name I cannot recall, gives its rating.

I'm guessing here, have no real knowledge, but a token dividend in 2025 would work wonders I would think for the share price - beyond the value of the divi itself. It would be a marker in the sand so to speak.

All IMO of course.

MC1, I’m the same , can’t remember ever getting a dividend

[cevodniya] 24/7/2024 15:47

MCUNLIFFE1 you are correct, I was referring to Easyjet lol

[mcunliffe1] 24/7/2024 14:56

Not from RR you didn't Cev.
My grandkids have held RR since 30 Nov 2021 and have yet to receive any dividend from those shares.

[cevodniya] 24/7/2024 14:34

smurfy2001, why would a dividend be a surprise.
I received one in February of this year.
You know they paid out 10% of net profit and have guaranteed 20% for 2024.
I really don't understand your post

[smurfy2001] 24/7/2024 14:17

EasyJet anticipates a record-breaking summer this year after the airline posted higher profits on soaring demand.

[pal44] 24/7/2024 14:09

Something has dragged this one down today could it be a seller ?

[smurfy2001] 24/7/2024 13:59

I think a dividend would be a welcome surprise.

[careful] 24/7/2024 13:58

Always a big supporter of RR. but the recent valuation reaching £40bn was far too high.
Cooled off a little since, but next Thursdays results will be important.

A lot going for RR in recent times.
Making good money from installed engine base and lower overheads.
Crazy post Covid demand.
Gross profit margin vs turnover is at record levels.

I thought Turfan was ramping up the share price a little too aggressively.
Hope the run continues, momentum seems to be all in todays markets.

Unlikely. The bulls will stay with the tangible future earners, which are aviation and defence.

[vikingwarrier] 24/7/2024 13:49

Before anyone rushes into the SMR element for RR. Just think for a moment about where they will be placed. Sure next to current nuclear sites but not in some NIMBYs golden crested Newt reserve. It kind of limits the roll out. Add to this the Armed Atomic Police force who will have to be on every site and its not as straight forward as some here believe.

[eigthwonder] 24/7/2024 12:59

SMR cost/revenue/profit/cash is for the long term future, but reading the thread and the bulls see an announcement as the next big thing. Without it I can see money being taken off the table where there are big profits to move on to somewhere else.

[lyqwyd] 24/7/2024 12:38

Agreed. Can't understand why everyone is banging on about this, when the expenditure and profitability is as yet undefined. Historically, power generation has a very questionable cost and profitability record.

[noramping] 24/7/2024 12:30

IMHO, SMR news is not imminent, it’s one for the future.

[eigthwonder] 24/7/2024 11:46

Interesting top level push-pull on the shares of this one. The card the bulls want turned up is marked "SMR" and they're beholden to the new government and the civil service on that one. On the other hand, the share price suggests steady gentle profit taking as money moves on to the next best idea. Without a positive SMR announcement I can picture the shares lower.

Rolls-Royce roars back into fast-growing short-haul aircraft market

Nice little contract. Slowly but surely

Roger, why not go and buy Boeing as you appear to dislike RR.
In the meantime

Rolls-Royce and Vietjet sign TotalCare agreement for 40 Trent 7000 engines

[rogerrail] 24/7/2024 09:52

As I said , RR have yet to implement one more Trent1000 upgrade which they have held back on. Perhaps they believe the engines performance is acceptable as it is, my view is contrary , the upgrade needs to be implemented pdq in order to succeed in the long game. As a parallel, RR had a similar 2/3 dominance on the A330ceo and ended up being the sole supplier to the neo.
