In free fall.

Results not at all bad, but they've found enough reasons to put it under the cosh.

[this_is_me] 13/8/2014 08:15

Doing well for this stage in the cycle.

[greasynut] 09/7/2014 14:21

Strange that the share price has been doing so well lately, even though it was common knowledge that pricing is soft.
Today they confirm the softness (revenues down 9%)and the price tanks.

Does anyone have a link to news from yesterday's planned AGM?

[nicksoj] 27/3/2014 13:02

My short doing well. Any thoughts on the bottom of this range? I'm out.

Maybe the "baked potato year" has not gone down well in the city with institutions that would rather see a less flippant view of a business revue

[nicksoj] 21/3/2014 22:18

The consensus opinion is currently bullish. However, there is always a fluctuation that represents the buy/sell intraday volatility.DYOR X

Admiral as a motor insurance company should in theory have nothing to do with annuities.
But now we go up?

[trulyscrumptious] 21/3/2014 08:09

Annuities? I don't know what their exposure is but many companies have been milking the public like a cash cow for years. Now that is under threat because George Osborne has decided that all those with a pension are not dimwits who can't be responsible for their own money.

[fenners66] 20/3/2014 08:31

And now we plummet , reason / rumour anyone?

[bigman] 06/3/2014 18:29

not sure I can continue to invest in a company where the CEO describes the results as a "Baked Potato" is he on another planet !!! having said that they are doing the business, one would ask what could they do with a proper CHEF at the helm who could maybe deliver us a nice steak rather than a boring baked potato !!!

Was this the biggest FTSE riser?

[nicksoj] 05/3/2014 16:50

I have a mini short plugged in for tomorrow.Wish me luck!

[this_is_me] 05/3/2014 13:55

Up £1 on the day, at present.

[topvest] 05/3/2014 07:55

Yes, great results. Dividend increase was very encouraging.

[this_is_me] 05/3/2014 07:28

Oh yes, above forecasts, big hike in dividend, all looking very good.

[nicksoj] 19/2/2014 09:50

Has adm got what it takes to break its almost 3 Year session high close today?Goldman don't seem to think so....Time to collect?

[fenners66] 28/1/2014 15:53

Market can't make its mind up with Admiral it seems up/down/up....

[deadly] 24/1/2014 12:58

Up on a market down day - surprising with all the downward pressure on car insurance premiums

[fenners66] 23/1/2014 08:11

And now we fall ?

[trulyscrumptious] 22/1/2014 08:36

A bit of a re-rating seems to be going on here. And the dividend is icing on the cake!
