Why isn't it shown in AHT news ?

GOLDMAN RAISES ASHTEAD GROUP PRICE TARGET TO 6,150 (5,400) PENCE - 'BUY'

...why don't new news stories show up on the page with a red number at the top corner anymore? They always used to. Lately, I used to glance at the page and assume that no red number then no news but it isn't the case. Same with any stock pages. Any ideas anyone?

The deal isn't passed yet....not by a long way. Conditions, conditions !! Reps and Dems hate each other.

Yes, good news....apart from the Conditional bit. We'll see. Tomorrow might start well for us.....unless there's a spate of profit taking from today. Looking forward to the next few weeks. GLA

From today's news....good reading..

2) Infrastructure

Modernising ageing infrastructure is at the heart of global
fiscal stimulus, Jefferies says, and CRH (Heavyside
Build), Ashtead (Construction Equipment Rental) and Hill
& Smith (Roads) are well-placed to benefit.

Come on, own up, who was it who bought 12 quids worth of shares today? They must know something?

The size and scale of the infrastructure package and the date of the final decision is what is holding this sp back. AHT will rise when they finally agree . If the package increases then AHT will continue climbing. Come on USA , get it done! ATB to all

Quote: "A bipartisan group of senators is crafting a USD1.2 trillion package that could potentially break the logjam on Capitol Hill. But the proposal has garnered a sceptical response from progressive lawmakers who want greater investment.

London-listed equipment rentals firm Ashtead Group, which generates a bulk of its revenue in the US via its Sunbelt division, closed up 2.4%. "
This should have been posted on this company's news.

..the rinse and repeat scenario.

Great result for us. I wonder what the EU will try next to upset AZN and GB. Maybe more toys out the pram coming...LOL. Have a great weekend folks.

Fk1....as you'll know, it's not the price of the individual share that counts....it's the percentage rise. Well done, and if only I'd....well, you know the rest, lol.

It's the old pensioners in charge that are sat around gathering dust. Idle.

Regarding trading yesterday.. 'they' were probably just thinking down the lines of "time to move on" after AHT stella performance .

...a little bit nervous before opening this morning after seeing what looked like huge selling after closing yesterday but looking positive at the moment. Decent RNS about forecasts, etc. Still confused about those trades yesterday though ?? Any ideas folks.

.... and it just carries on up. Not invested here much to my dismay. Kept meaning to at £7,8,9,10,11,12,13 ????. Nearest thing to a straight line for the last several years. Well done to all holders and investors.

Stevie...well, we're above the trading range you mentioned. Let's hope it carries on this time. Mind you, if it does drop back to 70 then it would be a fantastic cycle to trade with..10%. LOL, if only it could be that simple. Good luck everyone.

..full year results tomorrow, Tuesday . Maybe someone knows summat ?

If ..everyone started to sell because a company had a few days of a falling price then they shouldn't be investing in the stock game at all. As I've said before... nothing goes up in a straight line. Also,as Matt has said before.... the numbers were quoted weeks ago and sp keeps rising. Now, we have a broker saying reduce to hold . Did this influence people to sell? Who knows. The vast majority on here will **** the brokers opinions all day long. If people still believe, by their due diligence, then this is an opportunity. GLA

..profit taking this morning I reckon. Nothing goes up in a straight line but this is pretty close. Regarding a correction.... some sort of it will happen eventually to them all but no crystal ball here, unfortunately. GLA

...and on. I was trading this 10 years ago and then stopped for what I thought at the time was a better deal.
If only I'd....well, you know the rest.
6 months ago,people said it was overpriced, 5 months ago ,people said it was overpriced, 4 months ago....and so on......and today ?.. a new high. However, I'm getting a bit edgy now but again, like others, I thought that at £42. Keep going that's all I can say. :-))
