Has normal service resumed? So much for the end of week SP guesses. It is definitely an unpleasant experience holding VOD shares at the current time but hopefully some respite to the carnage will be upon us soon. Come on Margherita, sort it out!
Biggest faller today lol
In a market where most are up lol
As of 10 this morning only 10 companies are down and Vodafone is the highest or biggest loser just as I have brought some share
What are you expecting Margherite to sort out. Until stakeholders admit the fault in the current strategy and stop wasting borrowed money on dividends, and reinvest instead, nothing has changed so nothing will change.
Margharite has just continued with the bad strategy and shows no signs of being different. She can sort nothing out until the strategy is changed.
Tough lesson for the weekend, but there we are.
Oh dear! BT up by over 1% and this one is down by similar amount and that too on a very positive day!
look for 75p.. if market falls after US market open.... Definitely not looking good today!
In what way is the storm coming?
The fall has to do with either broker downgrade or Germany Retail sales which came below expectations. Luckily market is up and hence still holding 77p... once market turns negative, this will close on 75p for sure today..
I hope US inflation reading comes supportive today and vodafone closes above 77p...
LSE, I think BT will come off to below 113. I think VOD is beginning it's move towards 71 or lower. I haven't added to my short, but on monday I'd be looking for opportunity to do so.
BT is solid as its UK only based company... they always get an upgrade. like City says buy BT today. Vodafone mostly dependent on Germany and other many countries they do business. Therefore any bad news from any of those countries are a very bad news for them.... retail sales, inflation etc all totally against Vodafone at the moment!
BT does over £3bn of revenue through its global division.
Good then that Germany is doing better than UK. Always better to be diversified than tied to Brexit basketcase Britain.
You is a basketcase, nasty little grass
Your anti-Brexit bashing unfortunately doesn't match up with today's news and filtered.....:
ONS upgrades size of the UK economy
By Ross Clark
The Office for National Statistics has revised the UK’s economic growth figures since Covid upwards. Instead of still struggling to reach its pre-pandemic high, it seems that the UK economy surpassed 2019 levels two years ago.
Previously, the ONS estimated the economy in the last quarter of 2021 to be 1.2 per cent smaller than pre-pandemic. It now calculates that it was 0.6 per cent larger. The ONS says its initial forecasts were compromised by the difficulties of calculating GDP during the pandemic.
The upshot is that instead of performing worse than the economies of France and Germany since the pandemic (and Brexit, which took effect six weeks before the lockdowns began), the UK economy has now outperformed them.
But no one should get carried away. UK GDP – along with the whole of Europe – remains sluggish. Europe’s economy has been pretty moribund since the 2008/09 crisis, in some cases shockingly so. Italy’s GDP last year, per capita, was 16.5 per cent lower than it was in 2008. Britain has not – yet, at any rate – been able to escape the cycle of low growth which has come to bedevil the continent. But it does put the brakes on the theory that Brexit was an act of self-harm which was going to damage Britain uniquely as the EU sailed off on its own to a brighter future.
The ONS’ revisions to UK GDP didn’t end in 2021. It has also revised economic growth in the first quarter of this year from 0.1 per cent growth to 0.3 per cent growth. This is very significant, given that this time last year the Bank of England was predicting that the UK would spend all of this year in recession and others such as the IMF forecast that the UK would be the worst-performing of any major economy this year.
Jax. In what way timber? In what way is the storm coming?
For such a large and diverse company it's remarkable how little news its investors get by way of RNS. Waiting for meaningful news has been akin to watching paint dry. Let's hope we're about to hear of positive company developments very soon. Shareholders' patience I suspect, is being stretched to the limit.
Well BT is indeed now below 113 and VOD although holding out a little is still looking for downside and I still think 71 is very possible.
I think todays SP action makes 75 very likely indeed and I added to my short earlier. Obviously out of hours new might be a kick in the teeth so I'm not going mad here.
All shares are falling, vod is just following the trend
FED comments depressing the markets today. Another quarter point then hold for an extended period. Bond yields up. Div stocks less attractive.
You certainly know your stuff robleo. Good comment.
GS, do you have a view on the bond yields (I'm long on t 20 year treasuries and it's staring to feel irritating)!
Stumpy, just an observation watching all my shares going downhill, I wonder if and when things will get better and we can actually make some money on the stock market again, seems like a distant memory when shares and funds were actually growing and making a profit
Markets were bound to fail, there were no pricing in no recession, no credit stress & no housing pain ? October could get messy
stupmy. are you for real? what part of gs is just taking the **** don't you get? & as for you rob, you should no better than to encourage him. back to the school play ground on here again tomorrow then i guess?
Dan, i really don't give a dam about gutter or jax saying the share price is going down every day as we all know it's not going to make the slightest bit of difference to the share price, just laugh it off and take the micky that helps, I'm sure everyone here has already worked out that they are total nutcases
the reality is though they maybe right, my thoughts are things might get worse before they can get better and we could see more businesses folding as inflation interest rates energy costs etc, will be forcing people to make cut backs
we are definitely in need of something good to turn things around
but they are just my thoughts, who knows what will happen next after the events over the last few years
hopefully you guys disagree with me and there's a bull market on the way, that would be nice
anyway be happy and good luck
