I don't see SMS giving up his baby cheaply. He hasn't worked for nothing setting up S4.
£4 per share may make him consider his options. IMHO.

"Its shares have fallen more than 77 per cent this year. The price means that it could also attract attention from private equity firms, a banker said."

Hi Sharkz, Solley & Janus,

Thanks for your very kind words, hope you are keeping well and don't let our troll Tom drag you down with his constant negative outlook on life. I pop in from time to time if only for a laugh at Toms latest story regarding which far-flung corners of the globe he's currently in. I'm sure that he could hold a conversation with Michael Palin or Alan Whicker.

I do lol to myself when one of you slap him down from time to time, only for Tom to come back and rub it in that he's in some exotic place with a beautiful woman, not forgetting it's all paid for on his expenses. Lol

Take care guys. Time to take my seat at the back.

Tom, how's Clapham? Old town I hope. Lol I hope that your daughter likes her new kitten? You are all heart Tom, you really are.

Sharkz, I'm enjoying life mate. Thanks. More to life than arguing with the likes of Tom's of this world. You will recall the famous saying below? Well fun while it lasted, but I leaned the hard way, but had fun doing it. Lol
Take care mate, and go easy on Tom, he's had a hard life. Lol

“Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

Hi Sharkz, don't be fooled by the ITV trolls trades mate. You may well recall that on the day of the results, the day that you did the right thing in selling ITV around 100p, if memory serves me correctly, Tom bless him purchased ITV when the share price was at 92p, he then averaged down at 76p before claiming to have purchased £100,000 worth at 82p, boasting that he was the largest ITV shareholder on this discussion board. If he is to believed which I might add, I don't believe a word of it, I doubt he holds shares of any company. Let's also not forget his MKS £100,000 purchase at 250p to go with his other 20,000 shares at 250p per share in MKS. All this is in his comment history. He told the world and his dog to buy retail shares at the start of the year, right at the top of the market. MKS share price today 136p. The guys a genious.

Have you noticed that whenever Tom is losing a dicussion he will attempt to change the discussion topic with him boasting of where he is currently residing in the world, most likely some exotic place, all paid for on expenses. You have to LOL. If we had storm clouds over head Tom would state the bleeding obvious before claiming to be a genious. PMSL.

Tom you've been on this ITV discussion board for 5 years with nothing but negative comments, what joy it must be to live in a world where negativity is your only driver. When the share price recovers you along with all the other naysayers will move on to the next under performing share price to make yourselves look good. Have a day off and get a life. Anyway, back to my back seat.

Pearls,

I hope that you're right, it looks like shorter's have took back control of S4's share price, since yesterday's 147p reversal. Now down at 133p and giving back most of this weeks gains. Disappointing but probably to be expected. Patience needed. Further director share purchases would help give confidence to the market, I thought that SMS would have been first in the queue.

Vlogger Jacob of JKR investing thinks that S4 Capital will become a £20 share price. This prediction was made in March 2021 before the share price collapse. I would be happy with £10 per share. To achieve this I think that S4 will need to move to a USA listing.

Auson, ok mate. Thanks.

Auson......... "You need to be member. but its euroclear. The total stock out on loan here is just under 5%"

Auson, can you please tell me if its a free registration/member on euroclear, or is it a paid subscription? Thanks in advance.

Perry...... "Will do, let me know your target price so I know when to stop!"

I don't have a target price as such, I will still be holding in 2026, it's only just getting going at this stage. I will be happy if the share price starts with a 3 in 2026. I will reassess my BT shareholding going forward, but I may decide to never sell them.

The BT pension deficit has dropped from £4bln to only £1.1bln this year. In a couple of years there is a good chance that the pension will be in surplus and at this point I suspect it will be sold on to an insurace company.

With massive cost savings going forward BT will become a cashcow once FTTP is completed with BT paying out very good dividend yields at the cost of many redundancies. My advice to current BT / Openrerach emplyees is get the work while you can, you may well be surplus to requirements in a few years time. How many millions will BT be saving during the strke days in wages? Not to mention savings in pension contributions. BT will also be able to assess on strike days what future personnel they need. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Perryjones, I believe that the time to judge Jansen will be after FTTP is completed. Let's revisit this in 2026. I will be very surprised if the share price hasn't at least doubled from todays 160p level.

BF, the BT ex dividend date is tomorrow mate.

Some chunky buys in the first hour of trading today, let's hope its the start of the 24 million shares shorts closing, that would give a very nice boost to the very weak share price. 200p before next months H1 results would be most welcome.

Auson, ok thanks. Much appreciated.

Does anyone have a link to a webite that discloses the actual current short positions in S4 Capital. Thanks.

Pearls, what valuation would you give regarding fair value for S4? I have my own valuation, just interested in other investors valuations. Thanks in advance.

1msn.... "Could see WPP looking at this now.. cheap as chips"

I've just been reading some of the comments from the day of Q2 results when the share price crashed further and found the above from 1msn. If anyone was to make a move on S4 I don't beleive that they would them up cheaply, after all this is SMS's baby.

I hope that BT have plenty of fibre in storage.

Over the past 2 weeks the market has managed to drop the BT share price 31.6p, from 193.40p 11/7/22 to 161.80p today 29/7/22. Results were ok, so not related IMO. Plus the drop started 2 weeks ago. All based on speculation of VM/02 and a 2 day strike that BT will save money on not paying its staff wages. Crazy times.

There is more chance of VOD buying TT than VM/02 IMO.
