while support appears to be holding above 22 cents , the stock has been in limbo for several months now , you might suspect a shakeout if required before we resume an upward rise

for ireland especially , the chances of a hard border have been reduced by this result , the DUP are more pragmatic than may look the case , the result will weaken the brexiteers within the tories as well bank of ireland may touch 20 cent but im buying more today having been out for months

the 200 day was always likely to be tested

im guessing 30 cents based on PE levels and PB of the majority of financials across europe

does anyone have a link to a site which provides details of option prices for the likes of vodafone and other ftse constituents ?

john mc , i think that was further back than last october , perhaps even the october before that ? im not trashing the company but some stocks just never get the respect they deserve , compare its performance to that of kingspan , i know kingspan has been knocking it out of the park but its so much more expensive smurfit kappa has underpeformed the market this past three years , i know you picked it up at 7 but that was when everything was on the floor , ten years ago the stock was close to 20

that it couldnt join a european rally is worrisome IMO its a good company but a lousy stock

that financials are back in favour ( in a big way ) is more important right now than brexit , i can see bank of ireland over 30 cents within six months easily ps anyone got a view on smurfit kappa right now , bought prior to dividend for 23.50 but the stock has been in a range now for two years , no discussion on it anywhere so sneaking this one in

hard to know whether we see a break out this quarter , apart from it being a seasonally weak time for markets , results were not exactly flawless , its a very cheap stock but has been for several years now , i think we pull back 10 % and at best touch the yearly high before next earnings

its called " shorting " happens to countless stocks for no apparent reason sometimes

by 1% , had a buy booked at the 200 day early last week , doubt it retests it now

ive a buy booked at the 200 day myself , havent been in it for months now

Got in under 1.96 last week , doubt this holds prior to earnings

the PE of the company is extremeley high , a drop to £1.50 would not be outrageously cheap , it would also put into question the sustainability of the dividend

the BT results are what has influenced the market re_ vodafone hopefully vodafone isnt £1.50 next week

it wont go close to £2.35 without putting at least two quarters back to back of good results , the sector is hated right now , doubt we get above £2.20 by summer regardless of results next week

while we probably drop back under £1.90 , i think this has to be seen as great value long term , this stock is not comparable to the likes of easyjet which has obvious challenges and barriers facing it right now and operates in a much more volatile sector , telecoms like other utilities are long term about as stable as you can get , at worst , vodafone could be treated like a high yielding bond

i dont really see why european banks should go that much higher , the ECB is going the opposite way of the FED , low interest rates are bad for banks

the fracking revolution in america was politically motivated , primarily to weaken russia

yesterday the stock was trading more than 50% below its yearly high which was set around last june , the stock was in a downtrend for months , plenty of companies are doing very well right now yet their SP has been clobbered disney produced great results last night yet is down 5% today having closed at a near fifty two week low yesterday , its rare for a stock to soar off earnings when the stock was at a fifty two week low , as i said earlier , huge short squeeze with kappa , stocks often need to test lows again before they find a bottom so i think the stock will still be available under twenty euro in the coming few weeks , its fifty day is still under its two hundred , techincally , it might not be ready to sail up
