@Broom, i didn't watch the RR SP rise over six fold, but i would guess as the price climbed it was forever being pegged back by short term sellers. This is the usual way things happen, surely.

I stand by my words. Ok, take the bottom as 12.5, on the same performance as RR, thats 85p. I think all the CPI ducks are in line for this to be a realistic possibility. Maybe probability, who can tell. 3 full weeks until H1.....

I wasn't comparing CPI to RR as companies; they are in completely differant sectors ffs.

I was making the point, i thought obviously, that the future performance of CPI could = that or RR.

RR SP X 6 over a 22 month period. I think CPI could come close to that performance. Also my comparrison on valuations of Serco & SS.

Am sure my old buddy Sharehead 2.0 would agree with that possibility. If he hadn't gone awol!

*obviously that's apples. Plus RR were at 465p recently.

RR. So over 24 months from 68 to 465. That's a multiple of 6.8. CPI are 20p now. X 6.8 gives us a SP of 136p.

E&oE

@DARK, just for the sake of something to do on a wet Saturday in Yorkshire i thought i'd try & make some comparison to Serco and Sopra Steria. It might be like comparing applet to pears, i don't know.

Serco have a Mkt Cap of £2bn on Rev of £4.9bn. This year they paid a divi of 3.41p. DivMax have that at 2.2% yield. SS (in Euro's) Cap 3.8bn, Rev 5.6bn. 4.65c divi. 3% yield. Both companies achieve circ10% margin. Not sure on Serco debt but SS have 960m to service, as well as the divi.

AH is quoting 6 - 8% margin for his calcs. But, if both these companies do 10%, why not Capita in the future? Our debt might well be heading towards zero (+/-) in 2025/6? So, say Capita rise to 100p, that would equate to a divi of 2.2/3p.

Are we looking at another RR? 68p Sept '22 to 450p recently.

....& a £2bilion company would be 120p a share.

Already looking forward to next week, which will hopefully build on this weeks rise. Shame we couldn't hang onto the 20p mark, but guess it was week end traders selling out. Think we saw a high yesterday of c22.7p. If it can just get above that i will actually be in profit with my Capita shares. Incredible! There was a time under JL that i doubted it would ever happen.

GoCPI, you might enjoy reading retiring fund manager Richard Buxton's views on the state of the UK stock market. From last Sept. Some light reading for the coming weekend....

JG, might help my DEC shares. Am 'waiting' for COIN to drop below $190/200. Sold out at $251. FX will help. Meta are very long term for me; buy & forget. (Sorry to be off topic, but nawt much happenin wi CPI today!!)

@NF, not sure about US finishing well mate. Both my US stocks (Meta & Coin) took a right pasting. NAS off 2%. Plus, double whammy, FX is now at 1.2930. On the + side, it's good for buying more i suppose......

July 15th, if i recall.....

@sch.... am thinking today will be traders selling out before the weekend.; taking their profits. That might put a little sell pressure on the SP. But doesn't worry me, it's expected. Next week will be fun. Could start with a RNS saying Pablo is at his desk. Plus, Walleye may well be thinking it's time to close....

22.16p at 8:43 i have

Crazy eh! How long have we LTH waited for this? Enjoy!

Crikey! Is that 21.6p??

@GO, Pablo starts on Monday 15th. He's worth a little Googling; another extremely capable member of the exec team.

@JG, excellant work there, many thanks.....

Ah, here you are Fearless. Sure, you missed the CPI boat, but i recon you will be ok in the long run with VOD. Another 'turnaround' story. Just a lot bigger tanker than CPI, so will take a little patience. What this share needs is Sharehead 2.0 posting for a week or two. Would be a quid in no time.....lol

Don't talk to me about selling too soon. Just don't!

With my CPI i'm fimly sitting on my hands and WILL NOT SELL.....

Well, maybe at a quid.....

US Futures lower. SP has a habit of dropping after US open. Hopefully not today.Above 20p by end of week will do nicely.

Where is Sharehead 2.0? He should be here for all this. Not gone off on one of his 4 month sabbaticals??

"Anyway, 16p incoming now!!" Stroll on! 50 minutes after i wrote that the SP smashed it.

Told you all to listen to me! Aim, lets face it, we got egg on our faces mate. Retrace, what retrace?

20p incoming soon!

Typical Aim message. I think he means he has sold half of the 30% he wishes to offload. But it's written in 'Aimspeak'.....

Well there you go, further proof that my trading skills are little to non existant. What did i predict; a retrace in the SP to circ low 14's.

Lesson; never ever ever take any notice of my SP predictions......

Anyway, 16p incoming now!!
