I spotted the news about the contact in the US and it was one of the reasons I jumped on. That plus I needed a place to put some money Iād just taken from Argo Blockchain (with a 60% loss).
Orsted looks as though itās dropped quite a lot from previous highs but from what I know, itās the market leader and thereās a hell of a lot of growth still ahead especially in the USAās grossly underdeveloped offshore wind sector.
Do you get to work offshore? That looks like an absolutely fantastic job to have.
Sounds like a plan and canāt go wrong with Orsted in the long run. The shift they made from DONG energy oil & gas into renewables is market leading.
Yeah I work offshore and have been on a good few Orsted sites. You also get to take some quality pictures every so often and Iām lucky to call this my officeā¦
Pff⦠never trust an energy company thatās never set the Gulf Of Mexico on fire.
Is Orsted still 51% owned by the Danish government? Iām a huge fan of state capitalism like that, as opposed to the regime in the UK which just sells off the nationās family silver to the chummiest bidder for short term gain.
That 11.8% stake comes with 20% of the voting rights via the original VW 1960 privatisation - enough for them to veto major decisions such as plant closures.
They certainly have enough of a plan for me to have invested a fair sum ( not advice ). Maybe one day I even could even buy them on Freetrade ā¦
This has all the hallmarks of a company about to take a real rise on the markets. I can get it from at least one other trading platform BUT with a hefty commission deduction. PLEASE ADD IT.
It has hit a recent low and as such would be a good time to jump on the bandwagon for anyone looking to invest.
Is there any chance that Orsted A/S will be added to FT shares universe, please?
Orsted is a Denmark-based energy company engaged in procuring, producing, distributing and trading energy and related products in NW Europe.
They operate through 3 segments:
Wind Power = development, construction and operations of wind farms;
Bioenergy and Thermal Power = generation of electricity and heat from thermal power stations; and
Distribution and Customer Solutions = purchase, sale and distribution of energy.
Thanks for the request, itās always good practice to search before starting a new request (it not immediately clear) as in many cases there is already a request going. Keeping goes and discussions in one places help demonstrate the demand for the Freetrade team for it to be added.
In this case Freetrade donāt currently support the danish exchange but as one of the biggest companies there itāll be supported
Can any of the FT team advise when it will arrive on the app? Iām really keen to buy and would hold off on some other investments if I thought it would be soon. Thank you
I have Orsted via AJ Hell and they canāt even get the graph or any data working for this stock⦠and theyāre supposed to be an established (and very expensive) broker.
