Could be worth £30-£40 a share in a bid situation easily. Meggitt been bought at a 70% premium and share price was doing better than ours

[warrenbuffet73] 14/8/2021 19:56

Forget the P/E for now. This is based on forward earnings. Meggit stood higher than this. Why? Defence is very high margin work and recession proof that’s why this will command higher than average multiples

Some quick numbers and I still have this on a forward PE of 28, falling to about 23 the following year. So still a bit tasty given more warnings could be down the road, quality company though and did hold previously (sold at £37.75 last Dec as thought it was getting ahead of itself and organic growth had slowed), so will keep watching.

"Operating profit in single digits.Just ?3M for H1?"What?

[p1nkfish] 14/8/2021 13:11

Will take a while for this to be forgotten and forgiven. Have had experience of it elsewhere. A right pain.

[p1nkfish] 14/8/2021 13:08

Templeton bought in at an unlucky time.

[luderitz] 13/8/2021 20:00

My word the share price took a real slapping today didn’t it.

[justiceforthemany] 13/8/2021 17:21

Operating profit in single digits.
Just £3M for H1?
P/E is around 150
Yes well over a hundred which is ridiculous

[medieval blacksmith] 13/8/2021 16:38

Part of the problem seems to be a ridiculously high PE in the first place. The correction has put it into a sensible - but still reasonably high PE - but the financials seem OK and strong enough to ride problems. I only make this comment on a few hours viewing so long-termists might want to shed a little more light on the qualitative side.

In for 2% of portfolio and it will stay that way for the time being and for longer if it heads back into high PE territory.

Damage was done by massive volume in first hour of trading -but bottom fishers do not seem to have been able to garner enough volume to hold the initial bounce with a continuous slow deline from the bounce though closed significanly above the early low -

Agreed may well have hit the vultures watch lists this morning but like most vultures they will now be circling and watching to see if mortally wounded and therefore ripe for eating or will still have enough strength to escape their clutches.

[medieval blacksmith] 13/8/2021 15:35

Yes I am. You can go now, you're dismissed. :)

[12toes] 13/8/2021 15:26

Loser BWAHAHAHA

[medieval blacksmith] 13/8/2021 14:58

Opportunity to buy in - which I have done.

[blue377] 13/8/2021 14:53

A Glimmer of Hope.

[hem007] 13/8/2021 13:19

Yeah. Ive just seen. Thanks for clarifying

[smcni1968] 13/8/2021 13:19

Instead of breaking out it broke wind

Article analysis seems to have been proved correct: hxxps://www.thetwentiestrader.com/post/unmasking-avon-rubber

[thetwentiestrader] 13/8/2021 10:01

Much of this article from Feb still stands today. Delays, troubles with integration and declining return on capital on an unadjusted basis. hxxps://www.thetwentiestrader.com/post/unmasking-avon-rubber

Broke one of my basic rules and added to an offside position

Chick ... be careful with banks - they are very vulnerable !!

9 degrees - spot on !

[9degrees] 13/8/2021 09:31

this must be a rocking takeover target now

[ch1ck] 13/8/2021 09:25

I'm not a buyer of the DOW short inflation will have some effect but no a market collapse You just need to position in to banks, and commodities and safer stocksIf your nimbleness trade individual stocks you will do well

[cashstrapped] 13/8/2021 09:24

Yes think RB sold at 4645 but forgot to mention it.
Then went short.

[mallorca 9] 13/8/2021 09:23

I agree.
So many people with huge mortgages fuelled by the current low interest rates.
'House Of Cards' is a good description - it may all come tumbling down.
Cash is king !

[ch1ck] 13/8/2021 09:23

Luckily I sold when the price fell 2.5 percent a few days ago. It quickly recovered but I thought it was odd.Bought the same number of shares this morning saving the percentage fall today.The news today is a short term blip compounded by the closure of Chinese ports due to infection
