The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
I'm hoping we hold above £2 (has been a good support level in the past) following the ex-div date and then move on up into the results at the end of January (£2.14ish). Just a gut feeling and we all know how dangerous gut feelings are :). I'll probably sell a few after the results with the 'No deal' scenario back on the table but ill keep the majority of shares. I know its been emotionally draining and financially painful watching this share these last 4 years but this tanker is finally turning IMHO. The BT share price is carrying a lot of negativity but if Boris kicks these regulators into touch we can achieve gigabit internet to all homes by 2025 and make a decent profit out of it.
People working in manual labour jobs shouldn't have to work beyond age 65. If you get paid to sit next to a laptop all day in an air conditioned office then perhaps you can work a bit longer. A state pension age of 75 is taking the ****.
His funds are complete turd but you cant be unlucky all the time :). I think the news about the reduced regulation going forwards is helping BT a bit here. 9%+ Dividend now and still decent cover. I wonder if Jansen will be able to cut costs and increase prices our competitors have to pay to use BT's network to save the dividend? There's your challenge old boy. Lets see if you can do it.
As a BT investor I would prefer BT not to spin off open reach however I think this would massively improve the share price and investors looking to make a quick profit would encourage it however If this happens I will sell all my BT shares. Openreach is the main reason I invested in BT despite the choking of revenue by OFCOM. Vodafone are mulling over selling their tower Infrastructure and I observed the substantial increase in share price in a couple of days of making this announcement, I suspect the share will go north of 200 if this happens but again I'll just sell out at this stage.
I'm looking to invest in Lloyds as I believe the stock is mispriced to the low side but I don't like the current SP trend and I suspect there might be some strong selling in the coming months mainly due to the perceived No Deal Brexit. I believe the same is happening with BT where I'm currently invested. There is some good support at the current SP mind you. I held CNA previously but I haven't got the stomach for it anymore, I sold at a loss and promised myself never to go back. All the best with your investments.
Come on Falkland, its time to put some meat on the bones of this 175p predication of yours. Is dirty politics the best you can come up with? The market has already factored in the current political turmoil. Uncertainty is holding this share down but its slowly going up and has been for months. We've already discussed the potential Brexit outcomes and the effects on RMG and I honestly think RMG are positioned well for most scenario's. Why not just buy half your shares now and if we somehow end up at 175 buy your second tranche of shares then? Even you must think this will be higher in 2020 or you wouldn't be salivating all over it.
Good timing longtimeinvestor. I was contemplating doing the same but didn't get around to buying that large second tranche of shares, it is now starting to look like the bottom for this share has been and gone, I'd convinced myself todays update was going to pull it back down. Oh well, I should be happy with the rise.
I think its now highly likely that we'll get a snap general election and a second referendum is also possible. Elections bring in revenue for RMG. These elections wont be factored into current financial forecasts. If Corbyn becomes PM and acquires over 50% of RMG shares this will drive the share price up. The net asset value is in excess of £3.50 per share. If we get a recession some of royal mails competitors may go under because their financial position is not as strong as RMG's. Do you think schroders have doubled their investment in RMG because they think the share price will go down? I suspect some income funds are now looking at this with interest.
"Glad I got out of this years ago, saw the writing on the wall then. Share issue price £1.50 about thirty years ago, now £1.95. Who's to blame?.....well it aint the cleaner thats for sure"
Exactly, so its a bargain at £1.95. BT is still going strong 30 years later so what writing did you see on the wall? Share holders are currently enjoying a good dividend and I'm pretty sure BT will still be here 30 years from now. Brexit and Corbyn however wont be. If you want a quick win BT might not be the answer but net profit is increasing and dividend currently safe.
If Deutch Bank had the answers they wouldn't be in such a financial mess. They are so clever that they've come up with the idea of a creating a 'Bad Bank' that they can switch all their poor long term trades over to. Here's an idea, stop making poor calls in the first place. This note is dubious, it has the 'Duff Bank' agenda all over it.

Perhaps the EE 5g Launch is going down well. There will be a few handsets to sell off the back of this investment.
