A close above the ton, and a bit of more positive news generally over the weekend, should do wonders for next week.
Have to admit to wondering whether to cut and run earlier this week, but didn’t so I am obviously pleased to see the rebound. Given the uptick follows a formal update, matters of an upwardly mobile nature should continue steadily from today. All aboard...
SGC being bought heavily on the dips today - after that trading update more broker upgrades are coming down the pipe, as sure as night follows day - one pound plus is coming very soon IMO

Deutsche Bank raised SGC to 98p yesterday and now this from RBC
RBC RAISES STAGECOACH PRICE TARGET TO 105 (90) PENCE - 'OUTPERFORM'
HAS to go north of a pound soon boys and girls - Just a matter of time now - in the meantime just sit back if you are a shareholder and count the money coming in

"We are pleased with the continued strong operational and financial performance of our London business. We are operating at normal levels with full service restored, and continue to work collaboratively with Transport for London in response to the COVID-19 situation. Our expectation is that operating profit in 2020/21 will be slightly ahead of the prior year, reflecting the good performance from our new contracts in the year."
Quite frankly, that is incredible given the turbulence experienced during the past year - if this falls today I will be adding and adding big

Very positive!
Confirms again that no losses are being incurred due to this horrible pandemic. Fair play to the govt for continued support.
All seems well with no nasties slipped in, and a real sense of the shackles coming off very soon. Let's hope the market sees things the same way.
Yes it sounded positive to me
Should be a very good day today.

A testament to a well run organisation. This should continue to make a stable return to normal profitability over the coming 6 months. Vaccinations rate around 45% now. I am comfortable with this investment, and in for the long term.
sounds like the f'wits in manchester are going to bury their heads in the sand and push ahead with their wasteful plan, must be good to feel so secure in your jobs, mayor needs to remember he's there for the good of the people.... 135 million in transitional costs to provide no improvements in service sounds entirely like an attempt at change for changes sake or a very misguided attempt at saving money long term... which we all know form these schemes of past, do not work.
can only hope that the judicial review in may puts them in their place... but it wont, even if they agree with stagecoach, because these things are all political, only loser in all of this will be the general public.
Trading update tomorrow so I suspect money being taken off the table atm - I will be adding tomorrow if this sells off

DEUTSCHE BANK RAISES STAGECOACH PRICE TARGET TO 98 (86) PENCE - 'BUY'
Dude give up. You've been debunked ages ago and repeatedly proven wrong since the 50s. One day it will go down a bit, perhaps when it hits 120 in the summer, and you'll claim victory when you are in fact a broken clock. To repeat myself, the share price is going up because it looks like we are going out of the pandemic, and thus we will return to profit. Markets price things in advance. If you are a beginner you should listen to what others say rather than just ignore and regurgitate the same stale talking points.
Please explain just why you’re expecting £1 plus today??? Excluding London they’ve made zero profit...
Hopefully we can get passed the big £1 mark and stay past it this week.
With foreign travel looking more precarious Stagecoach is looking stronger IMO.
Expecting £1+ tomorrow
Good to see, no one buys shares with the intention of losing money.
Next trading update is the 26th March.
Its struggling alittle to reach £1 once that breaches that should reach £1.30-£1.40
Recovered a bit towards the end. This will be 100+ again next week. Anyone knows when the results are due.
I think there are multiple factors affecting recovery-stock sentiments: the UK's vaccination progress will slow down because a vaccine shortage was announced yesterday, the Covid situation in mainland Europe is worsening and rising US yields are dragging down stock indexes.
These things don't change the medium/long-term outlook of transport stocks like SGC, but I definitely think they are suppressing/lowering the price in the short term (it hardly responded to the government's announcement about investing in buses). I'm still very confident in this stock and will continue to hold so I don't miss any sudden rallies once these headwinds have subsided.
There is a reason imo - National Express results today - good but profit taking is pushing that share price down - sentiment dictates atm so that is rubbing off on SGC - Still can't see this going below 90p, if it does I will top up my holding as before

This is a bit of a tree shake to push PI's to sell, gather more shares and repeat. There doesn't seem to be a logical reason for the drop in SP.
