Haha. Nice! I looked at this company in 2021. Earnings were bleak. I may have picked up 100 shares but did not hold for long because i dont own today. I had the same idea as you with UK government, but you had the conviction and trust the UK gov wouldn't bring under their purview and ruin shareholders. Beautiful

Did you read..Iran can shoot missiles to the UK

> the UK government wouldnt let the company fail That doesn't necessarily mean that shareholders will get bailed out though. For example, shareholders got wiped out during the GM bailout.

Pristine_Hurry_4693

It’s actually a worldwide company (with clinical trials in the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Russia, Japan…) and mostly US based. The FDA trials are in the US of course. The patents are US (and worldwide). The manufacturing facility is in New Hampshire (and they secured a place for a facility in Japan). The CFO moved to the US years back and more are relocating as the need grows.

I had an actual thesis back during the pandemic. In 2020, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) officially launched the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). Net-Zero Commitments: In December 2020, major carriers like United Airlines pledged to become 100% green by 2050 specifically through SAF and carbon capture rather than traditional offsets. Fuel Certification: In June 2020, two new technical pathways for SAF production were approved by ASTM International, bringing the total number of approved "drop-in" SAF types to seven. This allowed more types of renewable fuels to be legally used in commercial engines. Norway: In 2020, Norway became a global pioneer by implementing a mandatory 0.5% SAF blending requirement for all aviation fuel sold in the country. European Union: 2020 saw the introduction of the European Green Deal, which set the stage for the strict "ReFuelEU" mandates that now force a transition to SAF across Europe. Rolls-Royce completed the compatibility testing of 100% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) on all its in-production civil aero engines in November 2023. Following a commitment made in 2021, this ensured all Trent and business aviation engines are compatible with 100% SAF, with key tests completed on engines like the Trent 700, 800, 900, 1000, XWB, and Pearl family. TLDR: Governments, particularly in Europe and the UK, are forcing the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) through legally binding mandates, while other regions like the US are using tax incentives to encourage, rather than force, its adoption. RYCEY was oversold and had a future. I exited my position in Feb. Over valued ATM.

West_Lavishness6689

I answered it. I saw it as an opportunity. after some research pre covid it was at 10 and I thought the UK government wouldnt let their biggest company fail. so I convinced myself it would never go bankrupt. and it would recover. my time line was hold until 10 but it went up so fast I kept holding and riding the wave up

West_Lavishness6689

UK government wouldnt let it fail. I saw it at 10 pre-covid and told myself in 10 years this could be back at 10 so fuck it. I will keep buying for 10 years and stop stressing about day trading or trying to figure out the market or how to trade since I dont have knowledge about trading

West_Lavishness6689

because I researched and convinced myself the UK government wouldnt let their biggest company fail.

West_Lavishness6689

thesis was that the UK government wouldnt let the company fail. so precovid it was at 10 and I saw it at 1.50 and dropping it said in 10 years it will get back to 10 and I wanted to stop the wild.day trading stuff so decided to go all in on RYCEY. and I got lucky!

$TUN is 32p while $TUNGF is $1.80. The UK is closer to the EU so $TUN will be a backup for the US and the EU markets.

$TUN received £44 million capital in Feb 2026 to restart her mine in the UK. £29m from an institutional investor. This is a big deal because this is a major player who has done his cost-benefit analysis. Long-term hold. Once it starts the mining operations, it will hit £1. $TUNGF is currently $1.8, with no mining activity and no equipment in place. $TUN has everything in place.

Here’s the problem with Webull. I don’t think it will go much lower but it may still not go much higher for awhile. The stock got listed in April 2025 by April 14 it was $62 a share by April 30th on $14. What happened? Massive massive massive dilution right from the start. About 37% of the company diluted between investors and Webull themselves. Webull themselves can put their shares on the market anytime they want. Investors have to wait till they unlock at different periods before selling them. Some of these investors got $10 shares for like .03 cents. So for a year straight this is why you seen the stock just get beaten down. The part everyone has really missed though is Webull is a far better trading app than Robinhood. They have better charts, better analysis, better options literally better everything besides higher margin interest. The problem is for new retail it’s to intimidating. So what happens is the retail that checks it out often goes for the great promos and then leaves. Down the road when they learn the charts better and they are more confident in trading they return. So Webull has actually been gaining users at a very slow and steady rate. Not to mention the users that stay have a 98% active trading rate. So mix that in with them globally expanding (Robinhood is mainly US and UK), acquiring more users, and dilution coming to an end most likely sometime this year if would argue that Webull (as long as they continue pushing forward with no more dilution and getting more users) will actually outperform Robinhood in the long run. With a 98% active user rate they could have 25% of the clients Robinhood has and still do well. How quickly will this happen who knows. However this is my load up zone right here. Anything under $6. Quietly stack and build until dilution is gone and pay attention to what’s going on every quarter. If nothing changes and they move forward I keep adding. If they dilute more I reassess.

Pete26l96

Real talk I went bar hopping on the weekend while on vacation. Not familiar with the area so my (UK) so my cousins were taking me and a couple other guys out. Ended up going to one bar and right off the bat I felt someone touch my ass, looked back and there was just some older guy staring, didn't think it was him because why would a guy do that, so I just ignored it. 5 minutes later I go to the urinal and another guy just standing around at the bathroom keeps staring at my 🍆 with his mouth open while I'm pissing at the urinal. He asks me if I need a hand and I just tell him "fuck off" in a joking way, thinking he's just drunk and joking as well. Finish pissing and start heading out the bar and a different dude walks into me backwards with his 🍑 and makes a moaning sound, and then apologizes like it was an accident. At the time I thought it was just a night where the crazies were out, but today I decided to search the place up and discovered it was a 🌈 bar. Did some googling and it seems like what I experienced is common at 🌈 bars. Crazy shit man.

lawrencecoolwater

The UK did, but it has not helped as much as pursuing a multi prong strategy alongside renewables. We now have the most expensive energy in the OECD

iratezero

It was Israel to try and get the UK/Europe involved. Iran's missiles are limited (purposely) to 1250 miles, the US propaganda news was reporting that they must have lightened up one of their missiles so it could fly further. Turned out to be two American missiles fired by Israel. SLV

Ok-Personality-6630

There absolutely is insider trading going on..I did see comments earlier today about Trump lieing before widespread media got it and markets in UK not reacted before close. But problem is trump isn't lieing 100% of the time, so you need more information for a reliable guess.

FarSolar

Running out of missiles for strikes? A single bomber based out of the UK or Diego Garcia can carry over 20 cruise missiles. With thousands of them in total inventory. Those same bombers could be deployed from the mainland with aerial refueling too if it was necessary. It's certainly not a limitation to hitting the electrical infrastructure.

The Omanis just want to negotiations to continue (with them as mediators). My position is the same as Jonathan Powell, who attended the talks for the UK: Iran had not made concessions on its nuclear weapons development. However, it was worth continuing the talks as Iran had at least agreed to reduce enrichment from 60 to 40% (both levels are consistent with weapons - nuclear power enrichment never above 5%).

This is Israel's war Trumps pretending to manage that US taxpayers pay for and US soldiers are forced to fight for as civilians everywhere are hurt and die.

Halbaras

The US has been talking to Iran the whole time through a combination of Oman, Qatar, the UK, Switzerland and Turkey. I doubt Iran has said anything new, Trump will just have been deluged by calls from panicking Gulf States leaders telling him to rein Israel in and warning they they'd be forced to pull US investment if he escalated.

That is literally what you are saying, you are looking at a 95% cost reduction over ten years and saying as of right now that this is impossible to get to 96%, it will never happen. Meanwhile I have met actual scientists and engineers working in these companies, not the salesmen (well, also them.) Check my post history. Can you admit that it is possible that there might be people who have innovated in a way that might be beyond your current understanding. Nobody is saying words I don’t understand, least of all you. Desperate to hold on to that one link aren’t you as if it doesn’t suggest direction of the industry, meanwhile completely ignoring everything else and your own debunked links. ‘Macroscopically viable business model’ are you ok? Let’s see 1 > you are ignoring the cost of raising and feeding that chicken over no. Years * transport costs * processing costs etc etc there are plenty of studies including the one that you linked that look into aggregating all these costs and find that lab meat comes out ahead. This is also ignoring the animal misery component for which people pay a premium to avoid, this is also ignoring the specific high value parts that are being targeted, blue fin toro, quail foie gras etc… 2 > this is an experimental product and literally the first ever released to a supermarket, obviously it is at a premium yet it has been selling out consistently, obviously there will be continued cost reductions. You have to start somewhere. Every single new technology starts with early adopters paying a premium, it has no bearing on where the cost ends up. 3 > you don’t need to compete with awful barn conditions to start, meatly has price parity with Waitrose organic chicken, not sure why you keep focusing on the bottom of the barrel produce when there are plenty of people willing and able to pay more for what matches their morals. This uptake will allow for the expansion of factories. The exact same scenario, as I’ve reiterated several times now, that has happened for every new technology ever. This problem does exist, over 70% of the worlds meat is factory farmed in horrific conditions, vegan uptake has to an extent plateaued, we need a technical solution to this problem same as renewables / nuclear to get off fossil fuels. I’ve seen ‘experts’ say word for word what you are saying about solar panels ‘how is it going to be cheaper than what is pumped out of the ground’, electric cars ‘lithium, rare earth metals, range blah blah,’ wind turbines ‘cost more to make than you get power out of them’, battery storage ‘too expensive will never scale.’ Do you actually work in this industry? Have you been dedicating years to solving these problems? Do you think if hundreds of people did they might find solutions? Are you an expert on scaling up industrial processes? I’ve made a large and educated bet on this portfolio, which is about 70% Precision Fermentation and 25% lab meat, the PF is maturing this year and showing incredible results which I believe will ‘carry’ the portfolio while lab meat continues to mature. It will be legal to sell in uk supermarkets from march next year but if I were you I’d add a few years to that remind me to see proper results. If you’d like to make a bet, let’s say £5k that in 5 years it is a normal product on shelves in supermarkets in the uk and at or above 0.5% of ‘meat’ (inc. combined plant, meat as concept rather than labelling) product sold in UK.

The UK PM? You and Trump have something in common then, not sure there's been a day in weeks without some dig.

Jebusfreek666

Very true. Unless, by being the latest to the party they inherit a world with no other potential challengers. Russia is a shell of what they are, the UK hasn't been relevant since Navys were the pinical of technology. If the US becomes basicly huge mexico, who else could fill that role? All of the middle east, while having the resources can't stop acting like toddlers fighting over a toy. Maybe South Korea, but they aren't very big and have other problems to deal with before then. I honestly can't think of who would become the next super power.

WaterSign27

Nah, USA at this rate will be in a debt spiral before Trump finishes his term, currency debasement will be unavoidable at that point. Petro Dollars has already lost almost most of it's members, countries have stopped buying oil with US dollars, which instantly increased deficite burdens, add to that US products are now being rejected worldwide, soy, alcohol, etc, US tourism has nosedived, stories of moms with proper documentation being placed in detention facilities, 9 year old Canadian just last week, no bedding, just concrete flooring and a space blanket. No charges, just blatantly breaking the constitution and laws because ICE is paid per head, regardless it the person is a criminal, is in America legally, or even is a child. ICE doesn't care, they are basically all the people that were so pathetic, and ignorant, they couldnt' get a job anywhere else, now they are hired as 'Brown Shirts', and the world is watching all this. But yea, keep voting, if your aim is to end the US, keep voting for GOP/Republicans... you'll have no trans people in the washrooms you don't want them in, but the country will be just another failed UK empire...

What current market behaviour? What is produced is sold. Yes it’s expensive to scale, that doesn’t make it impossible. The current progress in getting costs down https://www.greenqueen.com.hk/meatly-pet-food-cost-of-lab-grown-cultivated-meat/ https://agfundernews.com/california-cultured-bets-on-3k-reusable-plastic-bioreactors-to-transform-economics-of-cultured-cocoa and products created is stunning, https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/69586681dfbbcb0713825a01/697558fbc1385ecbc39db43b_crop%20hero.avif I don’t measure scientific success by venture capital? Funding might be down across the entire industry but Agronomics received half of everything in precision fermentation and cultivated meat last year, money is focusing in on the winners. Renewables are saving the day, so yes? UK is up to 50% renewable at last call. Why wouldn’t I assume a cutting edge technology where almost everyone involved is trying to help animals and the climate wouldn’t make an effort to source renewable power? Where is your evidence for it not being possible? One well refuted study by a critic from 5 years ago? There are multiple companies currently proving you wrong. There are also multiple studies showing 35-50% of people are willing to try lab grown meat. I don’t know if you’ve heard of veganism but it is a several hundred billion dollar industry that is supported by only 5% of the population. I think lab meat will be fine.

Monday an hour and a half after market close is the deadline for Trump's threat to bomb Iran's nuclear power plants, and Iran's plan for retaliatory strikes on key infrastructure *(power plants, desalination plants, etc)* of Israel and all the other gulf states. We'll see if he TACOs again but Bessent just came out with another silly statement so it sounds like they might actually go forward with the chaos approach: >US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says that Donald Trump is leaving "all options on the table" in the war in the Middle East. >"Sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate," Bessent tells NBC News after being pushed on whether the US is ramping up its attacks despite Trump saying he was considering "winding down" the Iran war. Oh good, still pursuing the "peace through strength" strategy that didn't work at all in Ukraine. These guys never learn their lesson, they think they can force anyone to submit even though it almost never works, especially not in the middle east - we had a couple decades worth of lessons so you'd think we'd have understood that by now. >Bessent also says that most of the Iranian strikes are "lone wolf activities" and that two missiles fired at a UK-US base in Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean were "out of desperation". Fuck me. Can you cope any harder?

>The Guardian cited sources close to the matter as saying Iran agreed that no stockpiles of highly enriched uranium would be built up in the future. In return, nearly 80 percent of the economic sanctions on Iran would be lifted. They didn't agree to allow their current stockpile to be removed and it had nothing about the ballistic program. They have 400 to 600 kg's of material. What about that? That wasn't close to what was necessary and the UK official understood that regardless of what he's allowed to leak.

Options trading in the UK is a bit different from the US scene, but there are still solid platforms out there. The key thing when you're starting out is finding one that gives you good data to actually evaluate trades beyond just the basics. I personally use Schwab but they have a min balance of $25k. Once you get serious about options, you'll want a tool that helps you filter by things like implied volatility, Greeks, and strike prices. That's where something like Options Metrics comes in handy. Their scanner lets you filter by all those important metrics and you can save your favorite filters for quick access. Really helpful when you're trying to spot opportunities across lots of different stocks. Are you mainly looking at US options or UK listed ones?

Revolutionary-Fuel25

Iran asked NATO and the EU and UK to get involved, but they refused — which was actually Trump's goal all along. Then, when Iran responded militarily in the Gulf, it drew those countries into the situation anyway — but through the disruption of oil exports. This created pressure on the EU and China due to oil and gas shortages and rising prices. Now, all those countries are begging to participate and get involved, but Trump is in no rush to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Smaxter84

Not when it drizzles all day for 17 days straight mate! I love solar, I have 41 panels on my house. I have batteries. They work great. But I still need grid power, and at times, that grid power still needs gas. Gas being expensive is bad and will raise grid lecy prices. It may however help my pension fund, which is heavily invested in renewables. How many people go on about renewables on here but nobody backs it up with money invested - the sector has been punished for years. So high gas prices are good for me on the whole. Most houses in the UK are heated 100% by gas, via mains gas pipes. Gas being expensive is very bad for them, including the poorest in the UK who will all be on gas heating.
