I agree Thatcher destroyed jobs, and sold the country the idea that we didn't need grubby dirty industry, we would be fine just selling stuff to each other that was made in foreign countries. Plainly she was ignorant of the large number of jobs in the supply chains that manufacturing creates. Lately the USA has begun trying to 'bring jobs back home' as Trump at least understands the economic worth of manufacturing. So we became treasure island to the EU, taxed to oblivion and choked with regulation, whilst they employed 'spanish practices' to circumvent the rules to suit themselves. (I have taken British building professionals to both France and Germany, and met with blunt obstruction, one was sorted with bribery. the other by technical means. I wonder if you could allocate which solution fitted which country?) :¬)

Anyway I suspect that the EU bullies will see sense and not block cabotage, since their loss of business would be many times greater than that of the UK, but you never know with bureaucrats, often their concept of their self importance overrides common sense, since their salaries and pensions will not be affected. If EU arrogance wins then WIN should benefit along with the UK hauliers in general.

Come on WIN another rant we should get another rise!!!!

[lefrene] 21/8/2020 12:15

The original "idiot" was one Edward Heath who felt he had to do something to cover up for a banking crisis (gambling in Brazil), thus took us into Europe and removed the very sensible loan restrictions on property. Property prices surged causing considerable and long lasting social damage, and as for the devious empire builders in Brussels, well we know where that has got us to.

But as this is the WIN bb, lets stick to transport prospects. If the EU block cabotage, then so will we, and that will mean a lot more work for UK hauliers in the UK, which will see rates rise, especially as huge numbers of small hauliers have gone to the wall due to the current exercise which is being used to hide yet another massive banking crash, that is conspicuous by it's absence from the msm.

I knew a good rant would make the price rise....

[netcurtains] 21/8/2020 11:05

back to WIN..

[lefrene] 21/8/2020 10:36

? The EU certainly have shameless sense of entitlement over other peoples assets, whilst blatantly taking care of themselves first and foremost. But that aside, subsidised EU hauliers do about 7 times more work in the UK via cabotage, than UK hauliers do in Europe. If the EU ban UK trucks from cabotage in the EU, then the UK will ban EU trucks from cabotage in the UK, and thus create a huge amount of work for UK hauliers. Rates will rise and thus it will be good for WIN, a rising tide lifts all boats.

lefrene: The UK did although clearly EU has more sense then brexiteers

[lefrene] 20/8/2020 19:36

Now if this came to pass it would be very good for WIN and UK internal haulage rates.

Jeff hasn't quite got it right because EU hauliers could still collect return loads for Europe, but they would not be allowed to do internal work (cabotage) in the UK, and the consequent shortfall in UK capacity would for a while, see rates jump.

So will the EU cut off their own nose to spite us?

Canny accumulation taking place so far this week.

[rivaldo] 19/8/2020 12:03

Technical analysis probably computer-generated, but still interesting:



"Summary

WINCANTON is currently 15.8% below its 200-period moving average and is in an upward trend. Volatility is relatively normal as compared to the average volatility over the last 10 periods.

Our volume indicators reflect moderate flows of volume into WIN.L (mildly bullish). Our trend forecasting oscillators are currently bullish on WIN.L and have had this outlook for the last 5 periods."

[netcurtains] 19/8/2020 09:52

VOLVO: yes you hear people discussing on CLIPPER thread where to invest next when price reaches XXX... Clearly WIN is a good candidate for some of that LONG money.

[volvo] 19/8/2020 09:47

Yes, on Monday if Clipper says in its results its going gangbusters...then the market automatically starts looking at similar companies.

See WIN has on average well over 100 job vacancies month after month...something must be going well.

[netcurtains] 19/8/2020 09:42

Looks like a good topping up position

[sphere25] 18/8/2020 12:11

Bid 203 yesterday afternoon and now 187.5. That's the thing with these illiquid lumpy ones, it takes just a handful of sells to move the stock significant amounts. It's a shame we didn't see this type of move in the other direction, but clearly folk like giving their shares away cheap at lows when the recovery potential is there.

So if you could just sell some more down here, perhaps the rest of us can top up ;)

[volvo] 18/8/2020 09:26

net...Clipper results on Monday 24th August will set the tone for listed logistic companies...WIN definitely has many read-across re Clipper results.

[netcurtains] 18/8/2020 07:40

Gut feeling is we shook out some traders yesterday. FTSE Smallcap coming in vogue as FTSE100 wobbles a bit.
Interesting to see what today brings price wise.

[volvo] 17/8/2020 18:47

wanted to push on today...sellers stopped it...come on Mr Lawlor give the market an update like Clipper are doing.

[volvo] 17/8/2020 17:36

The company is busy back to pre covid times.....surely share price can follow?
