Ashtead Share Discussion Threads

[gotnorolex] 10/3/2016 09:36

Aggreko and Ashtead moving in opposite directions?

[dealer1972] 10/3/2016 09:33

Clearly a little 'jiggery pokery' going on here before the final results. Bit coincidental on the timing......if I were a cynic!

[salpara111] 10/3/2016 09:05

The shorters just wont let go of this one!
I thought the last solid results would be the turning point but apparently not!

Seems DB may have been caught a little 'short' last week. I wish all the buy ratings that come in had the same effect.

[mammyoko] 10/3/2016 08:04

DB broker note is really going to spook this one. Think we will see 770 today

Someone has been caught out here and is getting a lending hand. Brokers are always lagging the curve, they never get ahead of it.

My guess is it'll likely go down at the start again as Deutsche starts coverage with a 'sell' and a TP of 660.

Trying to force price down so they can take advantage? Fishy.

[2flatpack] 10/3/2016 07:37

If the action was due to general market down tern or rental rate fears why is URI up 1.77%. It was a TREE SHAKE.
cheers

[broadwood] 10/3/2016 07:31

Apparently yesterday's 'action' was attributed to rental rate fears.

[broadwood] 10/3/2016 07:15

Strange goings on.

Deutsche TP 660.

JP Morgan Cazenove, overweight, TP 1140Berenberg, buy, TP 1150CS, ain't got a clue.DD

Glad I added at 812p today, truly ridiculous day, I am sure somebody made a huge amount of money out of that drop. Looking forward to getting back above 900p.

[broadwood] 09/3/2016 16:36

Sanity restored.

[bracke] 09/3/2016 13:37

The share price would have to drop to approx 665 to be dropped out of the FTSE 100 as things are.

But of course if the market as a whole 'slid' the share price could drop to 665 but remain in the FTSE 100.

[broadwood] 09/3/2016 13:08

FTSE 100 has only had its quarterly constituent review a week ago.

So no fears on that score.

[bracke] 09/3/2016 12:42

Good day clarky

Yes there are. In true gap nerd fashion I will state them:

861.5
896
924
965
1043
1066
1119
1144

You will undoubtedly be looking forward to their filling!

[clarky5150] 09/3/2016 12:17

Lots of your beloved gaps to the upside Bracke.

[clarky5150] 09/3/2016 12:14

Gap down on open, stop losses trigger, further fall, further stop losses trigger. Self perpetuating fall.
Happened on results day.

[1staxs] 09/3/2016 11:56

FTSE window has only just stated again... lots of market data between then and start of next earning season

[gotnorolex] 09/3/2016 11:40

If US citizens can stomach Trump as the wall building President and his promise to rebuild the crumbling infrastructure ie roads, bridges & grid network, the Capex at AHT would be restored and Voila! The (24 mile) Pontchartrain Causeway will be replaced with one running parallel to it like the bridges from Miami to Key West. Jim Rogers's prediction of a recession by the end of the year is fueling the bear camp at the moment, contrary to Yellen's intention to raise interest rates again this summer. She sees strength in their economy looking forward.

A company is promoted to the FTSE 100 index if it rises to 90th or above when the eligible securities are ranked by market value
It is relegated if it falls to 111th or below.

[herewegouk] 09/3/2016 11:28

I've added.

Great point Bracke - didnt know that...maybe that is indeed the issue - falling out of the key index wont help Ashsteads price any...maybe that is what the problem is (beyond the increasing shorter problems seeing something we don't).

AHT are currently ranked 99th in the FTSE 100.
