Backward thinking Union - too many staff in post at far too high historic pay rates - huge capital investment - huge energy bills on empty and near empty buildings - historic pension deficit liabilities- far too tightly government regulation probably preventing any genuine take over bid - Bowler09
Abject - do you not what the highest price he has paid so far for any of his 24.5% holding??
That is the minimum price he can launch a takeover bid from - but hopefully higher .
Hi Nige,
Karen shared the story around 8:20 and has been featured since on Europe Street Signs both on CNBC. The flash PMI figures across Europe taking precedence this morning though.
Mr Drahi has though once again mentioned no take over bid which makes the increase at this time more of a non story.
We need the decision on Equinox 2 now.
We are unfairly being held back back the regulator.
Approve or reject at least we will know the pathway ahead.
The figures yesterday show we are not ‘running away with it’ so remove our shackles !
The question was asked a few weeks ago - where do you see BT closing price on May 18th - Results day.

Any riders ignored as the above was the question

Kiwitwo. 175.5
Expat Welsh 178.8
Range 19.9P
Nearest Wetherboy just out by 18.15p on closing price of £1.4075
Mick,
BT.A still in my watch list and active in members area.
Happy Bank Holiday Monday,
With the results very close and as always totally unpredictable- where do YOU see the Share Price closing on Thursday 18th as quoted as “share price “ by LSE. To one decimal place please.
Will it soar or will it end in tears - remember the divi effect and see who is our Mystic Meg !!!
I will go first and predict ……..
169.3p
GLA and remember when the fun stops switch off the spin dryer.
Does anyone have any sensible views on what would encourage either Mr Drahi or DT to make their move either singularly or in partnership and make a bid for BT.
Seems the share price is waxing and therefore the opening bid higher.
Hoping for good results on May 18th and a traction in the progressive dividend rise.
GLA.
Never diss Kay !!
Abject - was yesterday the answer to your Prayers ???
Are you brave enough to bite the bullet and sell on Monday Morning and wait until the New Isa Tax year about three weeks away ?
Or should you have sold after the Budget and be able to buy more ???
Crystal Ball Time .
I on the other hand have a target price will bed and breakfast before ex-dividend date but meanwhile sell my entire holding should my target price be reached………..
Happy Budget Day to all BT investors large and small.
May your Portfolios prosper from any secrets of the Red Box today.
Further to NigeCo ….. whilst the ISA allowance resets on April 6th it is valid for the next 12 months- even if you want to bed and isa for the divs you have until August usually. So no rush and defo no wishing the price down

Phatkatzout Get them in an Isa - it is a Tax Wrpper and you will pay no tax on Dividends or Capital Gains. You can add £20,000 a year and on top of this buy shares with the dividends earned in the ISA
The thought of Mr Drahi sitting in front of a hole called BT is alarming - but the thought Mr Hottages saying he will get his money back (via the markets) without litigation is hope for us all. Markets opened BT up 1.2% ……… keep calm and carry on then.
Yep remember this happening many times in the 1970’s 80’s 90’s 00’s 10’s - I worked on many major projects so we just used to get the customer to agree to pay for the weekend working to avoid any business hours working. Wonderful memories- my new manager are a tad belligerent and threatened to stop my team working overtime. We decided we had done enough and never did any again - I retired from BT five years later. Happy Days. GLA
A fall tomorrow will be good for the reinvesting people next week
I think an indication of how much of the CPI +3.9% will in fact be added to customers bills - and a better cash view to the BT Sports deal will Both affect the FY in May Results.
Remember though Feb 2nd is Groundhog Day ……..
Glad to see that someone else watches Karen Geoff and Steve on CNBC in the morning.
