Still dropping!
Maybe results are leaked?
Well the 500m didn’t come!
Probably down to May and Hammonds disagreement on Brexit not effecting the budget. He’s had to keep more money back in the bank to try and deliver what he has promised today
500m for rural fibre!
Every little helps...😀
My last trade shows a sell and buy at 475 while I transferred to an ISA 😭
Luckily it’s only a loss on paper as I bought 97% at 61p!
Anyone know that Dr bird with a time machine?
May make a 3D print of BT's graph later...I need a new saw...🙃
As we’re on emojis for Plessis here’s a few more...😡 🤮 🤯 🤬 🤒 😤 but for him it’s more 🍾 🤞 🌈 🥂 £££££
Worst day since Italian job?
Seriously....wtf?
Only BT could announce a new CEO and then loose nearly 10% in value.
Market is punishing Plessis....idiot!
More annoyingly it’s on a week when good news was available and should have put it over 250!
Pathetic 😡
Grassy knoll theory...
I wonder how much input DT had in all of this? After all it’s in their best interest to keep the SP down, well at least for a few more months...lol
Not good that Plessis had to defend his decision to appoint Jansen on his very first day is it?
So he did it on the anniversary of his own appointment?
Total cock up if you ask me and a positive turned into a negative 👎
BT has no need to cut divi, it has THE best divi cover of all FTSE companies!
Pension is sorted and deficit is only going to reduce with changes already implemented, life expectancy cuts, interest rate hikes and a possible huge gain if rpi court case rules in its favour.
The ONLY reason would be to clear more money for investment and Plessis is correct in ruling this out until Ofcom backs down and allows BT to have a fair return, not subsidising other service providers for free.
We are not a charity and it is correct to put shareholders first!
Behind paywall nige can you copy and paste?
Personally happy about no divi cut. 10p in SP isn’t worth that ..lol
Feel sorry for Jansen though. Talk about a bad first day..
Reinforces my point it was a bad day to announce new CEO and loose its potential gain.
Chairman should have kept his mouth shut on Openreach for a few days!
Just opinion polly. But if today’s rally and subsequent slump was down to matters not related to the new CEO I believe today’s announcement was very badly timed. We all speculated that when a new CEO was appointed it would boost the SP and have been waiting for this to happen. This was overshadowed by Openreach sell off rise and then drop.
On a 'normal' day a new CEO would have caused a rise, assuming he was worthy.
Maybe BT couldn’t put the brakes on the reveal but it’s an opportunity wasted. Unless of course the market wanted a better guy. He must have gutted by the city response ☹️
Press saying yesterday down to speculation on a split. So assume today that’s been denied.
Either way a stupid call to announce new CEO today but typical of BT incompetence 😡
Sorry for the confusion we didn’t mean to say Jansen ....
That would be a nice headline now!
Should be knocking 260 not 230! 😡
So are we saying new CEO not liked as ignoring yesterday we are still down?
Should have been up 250-260 today 😡
Don’t follow the reason here guys?
Instant profit taking at 250!
