Morgan Stanley reduces target price to 1670p.....

I see Investec has jumped ship and gone to neutral. No surprise there I guess.

At least they kept a balanced comment on the stock.

Saw the numbers and think 20% drop is harsh.

Fickle business these days.

The article I saw was at:

still one of most highly valued companies, even after today's fall. pe ~ 20, psr ~3.0 (2013 estimates). net debt to revenue has reached 40% - this is not sustainable, too high even for a growth stock.

[deanroberthunt] 17/12/2012 14:34

just wondring whether the update warrants 1bn off the mcap

[mikey34] 17/12/2012 14:04

deanroberthunt,
I don't have a position here,but its not the first time I've noticed you arriving on a thread where there has been a big fall.Why do you do it?

[deanroberthunt] 17/12/2012 13:53

down 20% now....Merry Xmas

[deanroberthunt] 17/12/2012 08:29

profit warning nummer zwei......noch ein

[apad] 13/12/2012 18:27

Currently down to its 200 week moving average (down 10% in 3 months).
Trading update on Dec 17.
Last news "higher costs" and bad debts increased.
Slightest negative comment will see it marked down early morning.
Could be a good time to buy a small holding?

Any opinions?

Hi, looks ok to me now (top left chart), possibly an advfn glitch.

[stromboli1] 06/11/2012 15:59

From today's Telegraph

Storm assistance provides support for Aggreko's shares
The temporary power provider could benefit from the US devastation.

The devastating storm that has hit the US may have ensured markets across the pond remained closed for a second day, but traders in London were busy gauging the potential impact on British companies.
Temporary power provider Aggreko, which came in for a battering of its own earlier this month after sounding a profit warning, was among the FTSE 100 risers on speculation the storm may provide a fillip for the group. Millions of homes have been left without power and serious flooding has crippled New York.
A spokesman for Aggreko said the group was in "full emergency response mode" and supplying equipment to affected areas. Seymour Pierce analyst Caroline de La Soujeole argued that "storm-related revenues are not an unusual occurrence" for the group and that the company budgets about $8m (£5m) to $10m of sales for natural events. However, she estimated that the most recent disaster to ravage America could provide "positive upside" of at least 2pc to the group's full-year pre-tax profit forecasts.
That gave a lift to Aggreko shares, which were under pressure less than two weeks ago after the company cautioned that bad debt provisions and exchange rates would hurt earnings. Yesterday, the shares rose as much as 68p before closing 28p higher at £21.29, outperforming the FTSE 100.

AGK should be a beneficiary out of what is a sad time for many US people at this time.

[cestnous] 30/10/2012 08:06

5 million people affected by power failures in US. (he said, rubbing his hands like Mr. Burns in the Simpsons.)

[bountyhunter] 29/10/2012 19:00

Finally back in here today. Seems like a reasonable entry point to me fwiw!

[cockneyrebel] 29/10/2012 15:28

Yep, all that emergency power that will be needed in New York.

And the chart on a nice low and buy trend too imo

[dontrader] 29/10/2012 14:43

Possibility that small rise today is in anticipation the Sandy will help by creating some business.

[redips2] 25/10/2012 16:04

Huh! so where is that £19 Mr Hunt.

[deanroberthunt] 24/10/2012 10:31

1900p looks like a good entry from a charting perspective
