Royal Mail Float - What do you think? (RMG)     

Socrates - 03 May 2004 08:31

I am interested to hear any opinions about the proposed Royal Mail floatation. Will it remain a croc and sink or will it open at a premium and fly?

God knows.

Peston seems to have got himself in a pickle, but to be fair it does say hes updating all along.

Is that Miggins or Muggins?

Currently 4075.0 - 4275.0

Looks like I might get 2 lots of £753 - 228 shares.

How many Royal Mail shares could you get?

Beat you skinny!

Based on the government upping the retail selling from 30% to 33%, I think I'm getting two lots of 250 shares costing £825.

Stan - 10 Oct 2013 16:41 - 90 of 320

Not fair... I didn't get any.

halifax - 10 Oct 2013 16:45 - 91 of 320

what a pathetic waste of time!

skinny - 10 Oct 2013 16:46 - 92 of 320

Have you got a link?

At £3.30 the 20p per share yield works out at 6.06% gross.

If the shares kick off at £4.00, then the yield is still 5% gross.

At £4.50, the yield drops to 4.44% gross and IMHO, this isn't too bad a yield to buy for.

However, if RM's sales drop by 9%, then they lose £200m in revenue, and the ability to be paying out the dividend would then get to look a bit dodgy.

My bet would be, that it opens at around £4.40, wobbles and then begins to drop back to £4.20 with profit-taking.

Well whatever you get, the stock will start trading (conditionally) tomorrow from opening auction . Epic code: RMG

I'm so disgusted that I won't be voting Conservative now.

goldfinger - 10 Oct 2013 17:58 - 97 of 320

Royal Mail IPO: ALL retail applications from £750 to £10000 get exactly the same allocation - 227 shares (at 330p)

mitzy - 10 Oct 2013 19:16 - 98 of 320

Members of my family have applied for £750 worth of shares..

instant 30% profit and down the pub for a couple of beers.

Stan.

Nothing wrong with the tories, they are always helping the poor.

Bought 4 lots at £750 for my daughters, when I heard the rumpus in the jungle, just made it before the bell.

Just before the stalker posts, even a god is allowed to change sides.

goldfinger - 10 Oct 2013 20:22 - 100 of 320

Kept that quiet Fred. Nice one if you can multiply by 5. That is if you had £750 aswel.

Stan - 10 Oct 2013 20:26 - 101 of 320

"Stan.

More like "helping themselves" to the poor -):

Balerboy - 10 Oct 2013 20:33 - 102 of 320

You got to be a rich tory stan being able to invest more than £10,000 in RMG.....

Stan - 10 Oct 2013 20:37 - 103 of 320

And who exactly said I invested that much in RMG. BB?
