Large director purchases, peeps waking up - and media tip of course.
There had been worries recently that customer retention rates had fallen away causing increased customer acquisition costs.
These results show that retention rates have actually improved by 1%.
Yet the share price has almost doubled in little over a month.
This is a blue chip
Recent broker ratings range from £43 to £65. Not much confidence there.
I'll maybe buy back in below £43
Joe also fails to address the damage Russia will be doing to itself.
Cutting off their nose to spite their face.
They might ventually be happy with capped payments rather than no payments at all.
Let's see who blinks first.
While some countries are obviously in trouble, this video totally overlooks gas supplies other than Russia.
E.g. It makes it look like Portugal will run out of gas in November. But Portugal's gas mostly comes from Algeria and Nigeria.
Not very well researched.
Probably, but it takes circa 5 years to build each one. They'd need to start 3 or 4 right away.
That's why it's called Ex dividend - because it's Ex the dividend :)
Today is XD
From Annual Statements:
2020 Pension obligations = £338m Assets = £258m (£80m deficit)
2021 Pension obligations = £313m Assets = £270m (£43m deficit)
June 2022 deficit = £24.3m
Deficit reduced by 70% over 2 years and funding level increased from 76% to 90%.
IMO this small deficit can be managed from healthy profits and can soon be wiped out.
My only riser today.
A little gem in a bucket of ****e :)
Remember, share prices are as much about sentiment as about profit. When current pessimistic sentiment improves with improving market outlook then I think VLX will be one of the first to take off.
Also; If VLX can increase profitability in this harsh environment then what will they not be like when the environment improves. I think last year's £5 share price high will look low in the not too distant future. Only my opinion!
I'm no longer a shareholder having sold out on yesterday's rise.
The broker ratings are all over the place on this one - A confidence busting range from £4ish to £6.50ish.
Nice divi but massively geared on world markets - I think it's one for the lionhearts.
Probably rise now I've sold - ah well.
gla
221p of the fall is due to going ex divi lasy week.
Nothing to worry about yet.
Do what I did. Buy Boo too.
BOO is rising on the back of NXT 'ahead' guidance
13% rise in a couple of days and yield still 8% (ish)
M&G just raised their stake to 14%
Still dirt cheap and MASSIVE upside potential.
Looking like an income stock now with 9% (ish) yield well covered after pension payments.
Nice yield with MASSIVE upside potential.
This has to be dirt cheap (hopefully).
Sold my last back in May at 310p.
Time to start nibbling again I think.
