I've been thinking about putting some ROR in Victrex - better yield, underperformed and a more exciting future. Beddard's commentary is excellent and I have always liked the company and its management - PEEK is an amazing material. It just seems a better home for the cash.
Interims mid May so it is off the radar for now.

RWS looks to have plateaued and I think I rate the company, but I am relatively new to it so a little uncertain. Down £234 so far :-) Is it a conviction buy for you red? My holding is relatively small.

Still prefer SPX over ROR at the present time.
I trimmed my ROR, at the wrong price, but I am more comfortable with my holding now.

Gives me some support for my SPX view, red.

Still twitchy about ROR. Not sure I wouldn't prefer more of my high yielders.

SPX director purchase of about a thousand shares. Total holding, probably not significant but a chunky sum.

My Mum has a supply, I usually take one before a dentist visit.

I only took 2 tablets, the second because I couldn't believe the effects of the first one.Definitely not addicted. None since about 1998/9.

Ah Valium eh, can be addictive.


Had another small amount of Wood Group, that's probably it now.

Doc gave me Diazapam once, when I had a major muscle spasm in my back.
I was away with the fairies. Never touched it since. I prefer the pain.

Took a couple of Tramadol last year, never ever again!. Killed the pain
but felt awful.

Current best recommendation is a mix:

Ibuprofen & Paracetamol 200mg/500mg tablets

Not surprised, but the psychological effect must work on a decent percentage.
Our mantra used to be 'It's only pain, and pain doesn't hurt' when I was competing. It seemed very real at the time though.
You can con most of the people most of the time - politician is a good career!

Same here.
WPP still settling nicely, and I am still holding my nerve.

Only works with 10% of users, red.
Biggest drug con-trick going.

A couple of paracetamol should see you right.

Maybe. I have no idea where you might find that data for all of the open positions that may need to be closed, covered or whatever. It can cause a short spike as the shares are temporarily suspended and they are unwound. The share price is reconfigured and away we go.
It can be interesting. Not sure what time it occurs in the US.

red, options expiry may be why some are looking for lower next week then,
see how it goes.

[essentialinvestor] 17/3/2017 14:38

What may be interesting with WG, is the offer for AMFW is near a low
point for the Company.

Very different to when AMEC bid over $3 Billion for Foster Wheeler.

I played rugby for 30 years (even against some England players at club level, back in the day when their performance was drink inhibited).
One tackle would put me in bed for a month now - and they are sooo big.
Growth hormones in the summer I reckon.

DIS keeps tempting me (it's gin after all).

Interim Revenue change to 666 from 530, keeps me sober.

Give me a good reason to buy a few for fun, Pete. I'd love to hold some gin to go with my tonic.

ps
Well done on resisting the temptation to reply to the quicklybackward fan.

[qs99] 17/3/2017 13:09

nice moves upwards ahead of then!

Hold quite a few DLG now, hopefully calling this correctly.
