dont do what i did brut....out of these and into rr. another great decision

[brut winky] 15/9/2020 21:57

These look like a sell to me now, i'm going for a change of scenery for while, until he turns up and then i will know when to sell there. Afraid i'm cutting a long term loss from a bad buy, but will be back a bit wiser and a bit cheaper.

[brut winky] 15/9/2020 21:52

I must admit he does get about doing the same thing, don't know how much buying he does and if it's any good given the time he does trolling.

[brut winky] 15/9/2020 12:34

Looks like a bit more yet, unless civid doesn't get them all first like buywell predictions, fad and more fad until everyones sick of the farce, or bankrupt and communism has crept in the back door while everyone was acting the sheep as a fool.

Sorry but snail mail don't cut it for buywell

La merde is yet to frappe the fan for this turkey IMO

As an observation --- an aside if you will ---

buywell is now of the opinion

That at this point in the pandemic

Testing for Covid-19 is in fact a waste of time and resources

why ?

Because next year there will be 500M cases and growing

Yes

We know it has arrived and is here --- probably to stay --- like the other 4



What we need is a plan that allows humans to live with it or else

Everything thus far could become history

A flood of tips and target prices posted on here the last week or so.

290, 137, 165, 135-150, 180 tomorrow, back to 600, 110, 304, etc, etc..... and virtually all with no reason or substance to support them.

Even with hindsight, I haven't seen one person or broker to call it correctly.

UBS RAISES ROYAL MAIL PRICE TARGET TO 304 (215) PENCE - 'BUY' (taken from LSE)

[valuetracker] 15/9/2020 07:09

Value Target (RMG): 110p

[brut winky] 13/9/2020 23:26

Covid is swings and roundabouts for most companies that can still operate with RMG actually doing well out of it, most folk i know are scepticall about it antway, especially when a well known character locally died from a heart attack with with a known heart condition but had covid and that was recorded on his death certificate as the cause of death, his sister kicked off and made them change it, apparantly scores of folk have said to her and other family members that one of their relations had died and it had been put as covid when it wasn't. Who is lying, probably not the goverment but the doctors, why, money.
They want jobs for life and big money as well.

Recent buyer/s might become sellers IMO -- sure it has lifted above a falling 200ma but :




Timing in buying shares is ALL assuming of course you have picked the right sector and the right company in that sector and there isn't a MACRO that is going to swamp all

Like Covid-19 rampaging to 500M cases by july 2021 for example if no good vaccine is made available on a worldwide basis early next spring ie April 1st = 0% chance IMO

Israel has just imposed a National Lockdown

Other countries in the same situation as Israel or even worse now will be forced to consider doing the same IMO

The Global Depression has just taken another ratchet up but what can a leader do but try to save the lives of his fellow countrymen ?

boris ?

It is a dangerous link. Dont click it and dont join the twitter feed. It could be a criminal fishing for details. Advfn should really have google's catcha on logon to stop these idiots.

[brut winky] 13/9/2020 13:11

Well written factual article👌 004;


Need a twitter account to read it, havnt got one.

[brut winky] 11/9/2020 19:59

so, when you look at RMG they have nothing to do at all with actual post offices, RMG are just the delivery vas and soting offices.
I wonder who actually owns the buldings as in most towns they are attached.

I Never read it before it was copied and pasted, now i can see why others complain about the monopoly, it make a funny situtaion really for anyone who wanted to bid for RMG anfd i notice he has stooped buying, looks like it was a value based invetsment rather than a bid.

[cl0ckw0rk0range] 11/9/2020 16:03

£6? Why?

[thomasearnshaw] 11/9/2020 15:46

Post Office rings changes with plan to sell telecoms arm

The Post Office is in talks to offload its telecoms arm and is exploring a sale of its insurance business as its new chief executive puts his stamp on the centuries-old institution.

Sky News has learnt that the government-owned company has appointed bankers to oversee and auction of its telecoms division, which boasts 500,000 customers and annual revenues of approximately £150m.

City sources said on Friday that PJT Partners, the investment bank, had been hired to run the auction, which is expected to command a price tag of more than £100m, following a number of unsolicited expressions of interest.

They added that a sale would not proceed unless a satisfactory price was obtained.


Another City firm, Fenchurch Advisory Partners, has separately been appointed to conduct a strategic review of the Post Office's insurance division.

The insurance business is a regulated intermediary that has roughly 300,000 customers spread predominantly across travel, home, motor and protection products.

The prospective disposals of the two operations follow a comprehensive review of the company led by Nick Read, who joined the Post Office as its chief executive last year.

Mr Read's appointment came amid an escalating row over the multi-million pound scandal which resulted in a number of its sub-postmasters - or branch managers - wrongly sent to prison.

The crisis led the Post Office to agree last December to pay nearly £58m to settle a legal claim brought by a group of 550 sub-postmasters.

At the time, the network, which has around 11,500 branches across Britain, apologised, with Mr Read's predecessor, Paula Vennells, the target of particularly fierce criticism over her handling of the issue.

In May, the Post Office launched a scheme to provide redress to current and former postmasters who were not part of the litigation settlement but who believe they were adversely affected by earlier versions of the Horizon computer system.

The company has now committed to appointing one of its army of postmasters to its board for the first time - a decision which has been approved by UK Government Investments (UKGI), the agency which oversees the taxpayer's interest in it.

One source said that move was "an olive branch" from Mr Read as he tries to repair relations with the Post Office's stakeholders.

Those relations were strained by a scandal involving the use of a faulty IT system called Horizon, which led to some branch managers being wrongly accused of theft, fraud and false accounting.

Mr Read, who previously ran the Nisa convenience store group, joined the Post Office nearly a year ago.

His decision to explore a sale of the telecoms and insurance divisions will enable the company to focus on handling mail and parcels, as well as providing cash and banking services, according to an insider.

The Post Office is an entirely separate company from Royal Mail Group, which was privatised in 2013 and floated on the London Stock Exchange.

The two businesses have a close commercial relationship, however, with negotiating a new ten-year agreement between them among Mr Read's priorities.

As with other physical retailers, the coronavirus pandemic has provided a stiff test for the Post Office's management.

More than 90% of its branches remained open during the crisis, and the network made a number of guaranteed hardship payments to postmasters during April and May.

The Post Office also repurposed part of its foreign exchange cash delivery business to enable the overnight delivery of sterling cash to meet demand.

The chief executive's other main focuses over the next year will include the delivery of a renewed partnership with Britain's major banks and building societies, while travel and bill payment services are also expected to receive substantial investment.

A Post Office spokesman declined to comment on Friday.

The rug has been pulled. 180p tomorrow.

[hodhasharon] 10/9/2020 13:58

They take it up to take it down. The same bull trap as employed in FGP a few days ago. How many private investors trapped at 50p? (or 200p+ here).

I would say it's all wrong.....but that's how the markets work. We can't all get rich.
