Ah, well that's strange. I'm using Windows 7 on this PC plus Chrome browser. Haven't checked if Windows 10 on my laptop with Chrome is different. Will let you know.

EDIT....Nope, post 49 on PHNX still doesn't display with 10.
Which begs the question, what are you using?

Widows 10 64 bit - current build 14393.321 (current build).

Browser?

Chrome.

Well, I'm stumped!

I don't want to interrupt :-)

...just wondering if anyone has noticed what I hope is happening here. I'm only an armchair chartist, no expert, I just notice possibly meaningful patterns. Does anyone with greater knowledge see what I see? Which is:

- a triple bottom since July with a possible break-out about to happen, notably if the sp can get above the previous peak.

It's not crystal clear, especially with respect to the August bottom. Perhaps I'm over-analysing it?

Arguably an uptrend developing, with a gap to fill above 440?

More like in a range for last three months skinny but wtfdik. :0)

Me too Chris.

Blimey - looks like I can't even post pictures now - tick tick tick.

Soc Gen today:
"IAG has built a strong track record over recent years: it has over-delivered on cost cutting and synergies, and it is very well positioned, especially in the transatlantic market. However, the market overestimates its earnings generation capabilities, in our view, and the transatlantic market is becoming more competitive. We cut our earnings forecast, mainly due to ongoing pound weakness. We downgrade our rating to Hold at a new TP of 420p (from 500p)."

International Consolidated Airlines Group posts an after-tax profit of €1,484m for the nine months to the end of September - 25.8% up on last time.

Highlights:
- Third quarter operating profit €1,205 million before exceptional items (2015: operating profit of €1,250 million)

- Net foreign exchange operating profit impact for the quarter adverse €162 million

- Passenger unit revenue for the quarter down 13.7 per cent and at constant currency down 5.9 per cent

- Non-fuel unit costs before exceptional items for the quarter down 6.9 per cent and at constant currency up 1.4 per cent

- Fuel unit costs before exceptional items for the quarter down 25.8 per cent, down 22.7 per cent at constant currency

- Operating profit before exceptional items for the period of nine months to September 30, 2016 €1,915 million (2015: €1,805 million), up 6.1 per cent. Net foreign exchange operating profit impact adverse €372 million

Chief executive Willie Walsh said: "We're reporting a strong quarter 3 operating profit before exceptional items of €1,205 million.

"While strong, these results were affected by a tough operating environment with a very significant negative currency impact of €162 million, primarily due to sterling weakness, and continued disruption due to air traffic control strikes.

"Despite this, our unit revenue performance was better than in quarter 2 and our quarterly profit after tax was €970 million before exceptional items, an improvement of 9.9 per cent on last year.

"In the nine months, we made an operating profit before exceptional items of €1,915 million, up 6.1 per cent versus last year.

"We're pleased to announce an interim dividend payment of 11 euro cents per share, a 10 per cent increase on last year. As in 2015, we expect the interim dividend to be around half the full year dividend."

Looking ahead, IAG says that at current fuel prices and exchange rates, it expects its operating profit for 2016 to be around €2.5 billion, and has seen no significant change in its short-term trading.

Chris, I was a long term holder until recently - just a S/B this time.

Lets hope we are lucky.

Thanks skinny. Me too - wtfdik - but I'm sticking my neck out for a break-out coz firstly, it looks like it and also coz I want it (see below)!

Shame Brexit happened when it need not have done. But that's another story and I'm not qualified to discuss (non-resident these last 9 years). Except I have held since pre-Brexit and consequently been shat upon from a great height by pillocks like Boris.
