CR...great video.....already thinking about 60p later in the year.....

Dunno BogotaTrader - but these seem to have met expectations despite snow so that's ahead in my book. Potential for a fair bit more by the results imo.

Had dinner with "one of the guys" the other night and was told they are very very busy in all areas and taking steps to increase capacity.

CR...what is your guesstimate of target price around time of results?

[bogotatrader] 17/2/2011 11:14

overhang cleared...CR,,yes chart break out and no stock on offer...MMs bidding 75000....going up more....

[cockneyrebel] 17/2/2011 11:06

Nice breakout - can't get any online here.

That huge volume looks like a seller nearly cleared to me - strapped in waiting for these to motor on once the buyers don't have that seller.

Beware / ADVFN have wrong price / touch is actually 32 to 33!

[bogotatrader] 16/2/2011 12:53

chart looking great for furhter rises

[arja] 16/2/2011 11:31

massive volume today but only up a touch ! maybe a crossing or something similar ??

[bogotatrader] 16/2/2011 11:16

CR....nice chart...small rise every day would be nice ahead of the numbers

[cockneyrebel] 16/2/2011 10:34

chart breaking out further here. I think if a bit of stock clears they may rally much stronger.

We have certainly been on the economy, slow cycle for the past couple of years. I hope that we will now be on the fast spin and will emerge looking attractively clean.
Thank you, mesquida.

Although ADVFN are listing all today's large trades as sales I think you will find that half of them will have been purchases. What I suspect has happened is that a broker has found buyers to take out a seller and those buyers clearly have been able to dictate a keener price than they would have had to pay in the market in the normal way. Meanwhile the ADVFN computer has incorrectly recognised all the trades as being sales because it automatically assumes that anything done below the mid price is a sale and anything done above the mid price is a purchase.
The question now is whether the seller has finished his selling. If so then we should see the price begin to rise in anticipation of the results that are coming on 8th March.

[liberatingsteptoe] 16/2/2011 09:27

There have been some huge deals in the last few months and today that appear to have been sales but I don't recall ever seeing what happened to them. Anyone any bright ideas?

CR...you are right...we have a chart break out----looks like it will edge up a bit daily ahead of results to get to right level

[cockneyrebel] 14/2/2011 12:13

Chart breaking the recent highs - just that big high to take out

CR

[bogotatrader] 14/2/2011 08:52

CR..yes , could quite easily be 20% on his short term ahead of results....MM's bidding aver 200k for stock and there is nothing on the offer ecept at touch....

[cockneyrebel] 11/2/2011 12:32

Nice 150k buy this am - bit of buying starting with the results approaching imo.

fwd PE 7.5 and a 2.5% yield seems rather cheap imo.

Seemed to have done quite well in spite of the snow too imo.

I am not BT but for what it is worth my target in the very short term is a price of 36p to 38p, but be warned that the stock supply situation has tightened up significantly over the past few days. If you are looking to buy anything more than 50,000 then you will struggle, but if you can get a decent sized block then you should turn a nice short term profit in the next few weeks as the stock begins to catch up having got rather left behind in the December advance.
Looking say 4 to 6 months ahead I am thinking in terms of a price of 45p or thereabouts as the market begins to properly price in the visibility of the managed contracts business, which at the moment I do not believe that JSG is being given enough credit for.
Obviously there are potentially more exciting stocks around, but remember that successful investment is all about risk control and if you have a portfolio full of speccy oil explorers or suchlike then you could do a lot worse than have some JSG in there so as to balance the risk. And of course then there is the shareholder discount scheme, which is a nice bonus on top of the dividends.

[topdoc] 21/1/2011 20:20

what is your target BT

[bogotatrader] 21/1/2011 09:25

ticke up...looks like upward breakout from penant formation...if so will go higher over next few days...

[bogotatrader] 20/1/2011 19:21

two one million trades at 31p reported at market close....great volume for the day
