market seems totally impressed with this name change from RBS to NWG - NOT!!
Is this what a massively paid CEO gets paid for? Ms Rose BETTER come up with something in a weeks time rather than BS, excuses and the same OLD RBS!!

I will be offloading again at the first sensible opportunity. This stock has done NOTHING since 2008 other than go down

Patience required - I see that various sites are showing intraday trading charts, so they must have changed the ticker, but not yet the rest. The explanation could be that many sites make fundamental changes only on an overnight basis. Tomorrow morning may see comprehensive changes appearing, therefore.

Google finance has changed the ticker but not the name ;

[leedskier] 23/7/2020 10:55

New ticker NWG

[dbensimon] 23/7/2020 10:54

[leedskier] 23/7/2020 10:53

edit

Yep

leeds,

I've just clicked on 687 and I see that NatWest is not being spelt with a capital W, as per corporate custom and the RNS spelling. Surely it would be a good idea to get it right from the start??

Muchos gracias señor.

I have changed the charts over. I will ask ADVFN to change over the header name and epic .

add

I have asked ADVFN.

If you can deliver the existing board in its new name, not even requiring a new bookmark icon, I'll vote for that!

I've advised the Lloyds boards of the change, but no others.

[leedskier] 22/7/2020 16:56

I was going to ask what everyone wanted. Pre market I will change the RBS charts to NWG.

add

At the weekend I can easily copy the header code to a new BB entitled NatWest Group.

The RNS is out. I hope ADVFN deal with it smoothly and sensibly.

Leeds, if the real time charts above can be continued, that would be greatly appreciated - I monitor them repeatedly each day, NY and London.

Encouraging news from Oxford.

It would seem logical that viral load would have an effect, but I think the jury is still out on this with regard to covid. I must admit to feeling disappointed that the buffoon didn't shake a few more hands when he had the chance.

I'll let you know how I get on at bupa.

[polar fox] 17/7/2020 15:58

If you're so minded, I'd be interested in your test result and any info you can get from chatting to BUPA.

Are you sure about your final comment? My impression is that the quantity of virus exposure is a factor i.e. a consultant or similar in the ICU, heavily exposed, multiple times, is at high risk. Some have died. On the other hand, a single, light exposure results in a mild illness, quickly recovered. That's just one aspect that remains to be properly researched, as I understand it. Maybe BUPA will have something on that???

[largeronald] 17/7/2020 15:14

Polar fox - pretty much in the same situation. Had an annoying cough (but absolutely no other symptoms, which is strange for me) for around a week with occasional little coughettes for maybe another week back in February.

Going for an antibody test at bupa in 3 weeks. If positive, it's off to corfu early September. If not, then probably not.

The thing about having antibodies is that if it didn't kill you when you had it the first time, if you do get it again, it's even less likely to kill you.

[polar fox] 17/7/2020 13:28

It was interesting to hear Dido Harding saying that a positive antibody test still does no more than confirm the presence of antibodies - the experts don't yet know if it means immunity, how strong or weak any immunity might be, or how long it might last etc

My personal interest is because I MAY have become infected a week before BJ announced the lockdown on March 23. On March 15/16, I had some strange symptoms, but it was all very mild and sort of passed - 'sort of' because there have been some occasional odd symptoms since then. That now seems to be a common pattern, from what I've seen and heard since March.

So I behave day-to-day as if I have no immunity and will continue to do so until the whole immunity thing becomes clearer.

Anyone else in a similar position?

The buffoon is to give his news conference in 5 minutes - 231 is all set to cover it.

Heading into the half-yearly, GP, the latest dividend consensus is effectively zero for this year and 4.90p for next. Utter guesswork, of course, given CV-19 and Brexit, to name but two of the challenges facing the bunch of incompetent chancers around the cabinet table.
