I think you’re 100% right! I often use other apps to get the correct readings. Where I’m a little apprehensive is when actually buying and selling the shares! I don’t think it’s a 100% true - that’s just my humble opinion. Hopefully someone with better knowledge will come along and help…
I’m up 134% on this, wondering if I should sell, what’s everyone else thinking, selling or holding?
What I will say is that i looked at RR recently and decided against investing. Although I’m certainly no expert.
Short term its made all the gains it will IMO.
Long term could do well, but there lots of uncertainty and huge debts.
So I think its not a bad investment, but far from a certain one. And I chose to look elsewhere.
Nice.
If only we knew Emmie. If only we knew!
Personally I am holding mine longer term, but that’s my tactic for most of my holdings.
With RR and other defence related shares I suspect heavy growth in the medium term. There is a lot of sabre ratting going on, with China and Russia holding exercises near Alaska this week and lots of new military equipment being designed and deployed. The military have begun advertising for personnel again in the UK which they stopped for some years. The bigger picture suggests more growth in my eyes, but I could be entirely wrong!
If you have a shorter time horizon, your 134% might be worth grabbing.
I’ve taken profit twice now and then left the original ‘stake’ in place as ‘free money’ if you like.
I still think it has a good future but I’m mainly interested in dividend stocks and this is just one of my small ‘other’positions.
Yep. Up about 130%. It’s a long hold for me. Yes. There is the debt issue. Which hopefully they can reduce over the coming years. With that reduction in debt, there is potential for reintroduction of dividends. Hopefully. Plus. There is growth opportunities in the SMR sector and other interesting sectors around cleaner engine tech etc. I’m hoping it can get to low to mid £2’s in future coupled with restart of dividends. But again. This is just my personal view/stance. It’s a hold for me.
Here is a recent article on rolls Royce’s SMR opportunity
Tidy, I’m 63% but my holding isn’t huge so for me long term hold, if I had a big holding and your kind of return I’d probably be tempted to sell some encase this is another stock rally which gets to the top and everyone sells in one go…
Leaving you missing out on those big gains
I bought this when it tanked last year. My Avg buy is £0.7872 currently 164% up. May regret it but have no intention of selling
Its a punt but Nuclear will have to be taken seriously eventually and RR is well placed to take advantage.
I think Nuclear is already taken seriously
Couple of recent articles. Putting a very positive outlook on RR stock.
Great news
I sold my little holding and never bought back in on the isa, keep thinking it was hyped up lots due to the mini nuclear reactors etc.
I like the company but feel if I buy in now at all time highs well… Mm
Awww shame @Kiava. I have a small holding. Was buying in the 0.70-0.90 range. Wish I was a bit more aggressive when it was really low. But I had been burned chasing another tech company.
There are a lot of interesting projects RR are working. The SMR’s being one. Propulsion and green power etc. Some huge projects that can have global reach/impact. If we’re going to get to net zero/work with the planet not against it. Engineering and technology are going to play a massive part in that. Which RR is well placed to play a key role going forward. The debt is still a problem. But hopefully they can manage this and reduce over time. The share price is predicted anywhere from £1-6 over the coming years. Until debt has been reduced/cleared and we have movement in the projects listed above. I think the higher end of those predictions are unlikely. But I do think £2.50 - £3.50 is achievable.
Mmm interesting. Yes I also had the same done to me and thats why I was a little worried buying back in at all tike highs I just have this bad feeling if you get me but at the same time I do want to as I like the company.
I might as well go for it I guess if it all goes bad then the last sale in profit I made just cancels out.
Thanks for the lengthy responce
I set a limit on these to sell at £2.30. Mainly to cash out with a profit as much as anything else. However I keep reading positive things about these and may increase that limit for now. Nice to have some green in the portfolio!
RR shares=£2-26 showing on freetrade but £2.21 on LSE? Who’s right?
221p seems to be the accepted close price. (To Buy)
Sometimes if there is late activity FT misses the close price temporarily. Rarely, but happens.
Also FT uses Mid price…most other markets show a buy and a sell…although thats irrelevant to the RR discrepancy today.
Thanks for that, be interesting to see what the opening price is tomorrow.
