thats the second one i have found on here.
that is short of brains.
10.10am today sp takes instant drop to £1 triggering some stops.
10 mins later all shake shares sold now people will be paying more to get back in mm are very crafty easy money i never put auto stops in.
look at the new ceo and then you will see the future of this company.
DYOR
this stock just cannot miss this year.
my personal opinion is that the divi will be returned at the half year results when the board has a clear picture . and that would drive the sp straight back up to 350-400 as there will still be loads of other stocks that will not be paying a divi at all ie- banks etc = more investors here.
i cannot see how this company cannot have great half year results with people hardly using there cars- vans etc for weeks very small amount of accidents or breakdowns etc.
many shareholders here are divi collectors and if the divi is returned at half year as i predict it will all those investors will return and sp will be 3.50 imho .
i follow many stocks and was considering buying back into this now that the country is opening up again but have been waiting for the delayed report ie still delayed.
you might not like my comments but you cannot argue that this mornings 2 rns were not good.
when i read the 2 rns this morning i thought ouch this is going to hit sp so am surprised it is holding up this well. was in last year and did very well but not in now .
looks like people have realised the report that progress has been made on the sale of the surplus land has been made and company expects to have sale completed in 2021.
this will result in a special divi being paid out which i would expect to be at least 50p per share.
i also expect to see sp at £1.20 before long imho dyor good luck all.
a lot of new investors here that are getting nervous about how high this can go ?
let me just say that i believe that this stock is the best % upside stock in my portfolio.
there are many stocks available at the moment that can return 30%-40%- 50% profit in the next 12-18 months but this one can do 100%+++ in the next 12-18 months so think yourself lucky that you are in at these prices and do not panic .
everything is pointing to happiness imo be lucky be safe.
my thoughts are.
1- bt scraps 100% of divi for 2yrs
2- bod buys at rock bottom
3- ft story comes out same day and then goes silent on bt denial.
4- bt denial very wooly imo
5- HMG now back peddling on huawei deal
6- HMG desperate to get 5g rolled out asap
7- what will the cost be if all huawei kit removed and 5g still rolled out.???
i have a nagging thought in my head that HMG may take a stake in bt to push through the 5g at a rapid pace.
i cannot get that FT report that said bt was in negotiations to sell a stake of openreach out of my head. ie no smoke without fire!!!
please do give your opinions and what it would mean to the sp if this did happen.
the worst thing that can happen here is a lowball bid from betfred or anyone else.
yes you would make money but we would miss out on a lot more upside over the next 2-3 years.
imho this stock will be £2 by xmas and £3+ by xmas 2022.
you do not get many chances like this in a top 250 stock grab it while you can.
the only thing you are short of is brains.
hi i just wanted to make a comment about negative posters on BB whenever i get interested in a sector part of my research includes reading others comments as i like to get a feeling for the sentiment in a stock. about 5 weeks ago i decided i wanted some exposure in the insurance sector and narrowed it down to av and dlg after reading this BB i decided that although the sp was very attractive the sentiment was awful so i invested in dlg so it just goes to show negativity can have an influence. i also was tempted by bt but for the same reason backed away.
well i think the hmg was between a rock and a hardplace the virus was here and we did not have the hospital facilities or the testing capacity to control the situation so they just tried to follow other countries examples . ie shutdown after all the first job of a govt is to protect its citizens .
the call of the pra was not aimed at companies like DLG but it just did a blanket hit on all banks & insurance companies so as to cover every angle .
DLG wil be swimming in cash by the end of the Q2 and imo restart the divi with hmg blessing .
so dont worry about your divi you will get it and possibly a special one at the end of year as well.
think you are right about divi they were only keeping pra happy when they with held the divi and with this shutdown profits will be considerably higher so am confident that we will receive some kind of divi before year end inho
i saw the share prophets podcast at the weekend and bought in this morning having never heard of this stock before.
tw has also bought in and he will be putting a lot of news out on this in the coming weeks/months so expect a lot more exposure/investors .
alto i think you are being too pessimistic i bought back into wmh for the same reasons as crystalball highlights.
however i do agree that the market is in a mess and could fall further.
however wmh is already in a takeover position which would command a increase on the current sp and the divi is very unlikely to be cut.
this gives me confidence.
