Thanks for sharing your insight, Finley, it certainly gives a plausible explanation as to why the SP is so low. I like your idea that the "smart money" is sitting tight here for the inevitable re-rate or takeover! Let's hope it pans out that way 🤞

This should be over £6 already. Not sure why it's dropping back. Games are definitely being played here, which makes me wonder 🤔 why that is? Could there be a takeover looming? Just a thought but it is odd that the shareprice is so subdued given recent upgrades and positive sentiment towards airline stocks.

JPMorgan cuts Prudential price target to 950 (1,150) pence - 'overweight'

Great! Although I'd bite your arm off for 950p. Meanwhile, the actual shareprice is languishing at 640p! The shareprice here defies normal parameters. Normally a broker forecast for a 50% uplift in the shareprice would have some positive effect but not here. Nothing does! Maybe all hope has gone.

Peel Hunt now reckon EZJ is worth 900p!

Yanks always kill it even though it's not the primary listing. Maybe they should delist from there.

Webinar all very positive. Lots of shareholder returns to look forward to in the coming years. I suspect we'll be getting additional special dividends along the way as well as continuing buybacks post February 2025. The SP will not be at these levels much longer! Onwards and upwards 🤞

I hope you're correct James. I'm happy to wait (although I will continue to be frustrated) but it would be better to see some progress soon, even if it could get back above 700p. That doesn't seem to me to be an unreasonable expectation in the short term. And then if Trump goes easier than expected with tariffs, this might start to realise it's true potential. It's certainly been a frustrating journey so far though. 🤞

The SP can't even keep up with the FTSE100 so far today! With China's manufacturing output improving, one would think that Pru might move on up in sympathy. Seemingly not!

Today's upgrades from UBS and Barclays will do no harm at all. I like UBS's £8.40! This is just getting going.

But if Pru ascends to brokers' forecasted prices, then investors here could make 100% profit! That's why I'm here! It hasn't gone to plan yet, however!

It's doing the same as before, post results i.e going down. I suspect this will finish in the 530s! Is it any wonder investors are leaving the LSE in their droves. Not sure whether to hold or sell. The post COVID recovery is still proving elusive even though profits are soaring. It's all clearly a fix!

But yet you hold onto Vod, avocet! Bizarre!

You win some lose some, avocet! The results weren't good as per Germany so made a decision to cut my losses. Could've gone lower.

Not in Vod anymore, avocet as it's hopeless and let's be honest EZJ should be worth a lot more than £5.50! Pru is a disaster too so not sure what your point is. Am I supposed to be happy being invested in under performing shares? If the shareprice ever gets to £7 plus here, then I'll be happier!

Disappointing shareprice action on what were great results. Is it any wonder the UK stock market underperforms. Following that Reuters piece, it seems to me that there are certain influencers who don't want this to go up. I wonder why that is?

Unfortunately, it's looking like this isn't going to recover whilst there's talk of more tariffs being applied to Chinese US imports. It's all overblown I feel as it pertains to Pru as whatever happens, there will still be 100s of millions of potential customers requiring financial products etc. in Asia and Africa, including China!

Charming! Looking better today at long last. Have we turned a corner? I'm hoping that the market may be starting to finally correct the mispricing of this share.

Can't read the Times article as behind a pay wall but I'm guessing it's not good so no doubt we're going under. Not surprising really as Rowland is not to be trusted given his performance so far. I mean why would it take over a year to organise a reverse takeover? The writing is,unfortunately, on the wall.

Hope so. I've had enough of companies going bust on me, the last one being H&W! I'm due a bit of better fortune! 🤞
