Malcolm, for a shareholder, you seem remarkably ill-informed. Inmarsat is not “a British firm which launches space rockets.” As a cursory glance at the company website could have shown you, it is a provider of satellite-based communications, and has to pay launchers of space rockets to get its satellites into space. Currently, the launch of two Global Express satellites by Proton rockets in Kazakhstan has been delayed following a launch failure earlier this year, as has been well documented in several RNS announcements. I own ISAT but I would advise any interested parties to do their own research rather than rely on superficial commentary of this type.

read Malcolm daily and you will come to realise he is not a detail person but a “big picture sentiment and momentum person “ almost always with great insight .
Anyway ,,,,,,,,,, I bet you cant take exams with your nose blocked up like Malcolm can .

Thanks for your comment, Aurers. Criticism is always welcome. I write the equivalent of 60 books a year and always run the risk of getting something wrong.
However on this occasion, I happen to know a lot about Inmarsat. I know that they do not own their own rockets. I chose that form of words very carefully. They commission the launching, so they launch them.
One has to keep things very simple, and I did not have the space to go into the fine details of who does what. The piece is accurate. May I humbly suggest you read things a bit more carefully – very important when picking shares.
Thanks Riders for your support.

Why Malcolm? Tony Bates! Shame really and it shows how unprofessional I am as ISAT would otherwise be right up my street (sigh!). But the spectre of Yell/hibu…
