Broker upgrade somewhere?

The SWT review between First with franchise losses and SGC is a worry and overhangs the price in my view.

It amazes me how much these upgrades / downgrades impact on the share price of fairly big FTSE shares, most of the time these apparent experts are totally clueless, who follows them ??

HSBC downgrade, cites weakness in East Coast mainline and Megabus

Anyone know why this down so far today, newspaper article, etc.!

We suggest it is primarily on Britain’s three main intercity routes – the East and West Coast main lines and the Great Western – which together have over 90m passenger journeys a year, where there is real scope for operators to innovate and differentiate their fares and services, and thus for on-rail competition to play a much bigger role.

A complex tax avoidance scheme used by transport group Stagecoach to wipe £11m off its tax bill has been defeated in the tax courts.

Indeed i have arab, but most of mine were bought sub-£2. I've held for 6+ years and traded part of my holding to gain free shares along the way:-)

I'll still be holding for the next 6 years and beyond :-)

sawadee
have you held onto these since they were over 3.50 ?

[sawadee3] 02/3/2016 10:33

Looking good. I'll be re-investing my dividend payment as always :-)

TU today: "Although we continue to operate in a more challenging environment, we remain on track to meet our expectations for the year."

One wonders if First might make a low-ball offer in view of loss of other franchises?

Welcome aboard Tim :-)

See this link on Motely Fool on same idea

[netcurtains] 24/12/2015 13:56

...or start one.
Perhaps just one plane to start with Perth to Birmingham or some such.

It needs something to turn this baby round!

Was on South West trains (stagecoach) this morning. Packed solid. No place even to stand up. They must be making money hand over fist with the oil price falling.

[sawadee3] 11/12/2015 09:20

Took full advantage of the Xmas offer plus many other shares in currently unloved sectors.

These will be back up in next to no time :-)

Looking forward to a prosperous 2016 :-)

Happy days chaps :-)

Bought in on Wednesday at £3.05, thought the update was fine and the Paris impact was inevitable, surprised the market sold it off so much however that is the state of the markets at the moment, any slight negativity and share prices get battered.

The valuation is very reasonable, dividend is OK and the outlook seems decent so as long as the wider market doesn't collapse I would expect this to recover during the next few weeks.
