The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

> Would that apply to Greencoat UK Wind, I think they frequently issued shares to buy assets and over the last year or two have been buying back shares?

Thanks for your post.

I looked into Greencoat UK Wind (UKW) a couple of months ago over the course of a few evenings, and was put off by:

- the question about decommissioning end-of-life costs for old windfarm sites, further down the line.

- a certain UK political party wants to cause damage to the wind energy sector, if they get power.

- still not 100% sure about what is actually going on in the UKW reports

I came to the conclusion, the yield is appealing, but understanding where it will be in 5 years time is 'too hard'.
