New RAF contract

They do look very interesting at this price, but then again so does most of the sector. A fall through support rarely results in a quick return.

I am not nervous here. Not in the slightest. I would like to buy more but I have reached my self-imposed limitations on stock ownership.

[dr_smith] 14/11/2017 14:07

I wasn't nervous.. until you mention opinions of asset managers! ;-)

A nervous opening... dead cat, or in to the abyss?

BAB shares now at a 5 1/2 year low. Chart still not looking like it's about to reverse its fall anytime soon. The fall began in Feb 14 and it's been trending down ever since. Although one can expect a small dead cat bounce from here, the trend looks still firmly south.

A few days old. Thoughts?

Death cross

M, thanks. Lost my password for the Woodford site.

comments here relating to Ultra Electronics US business being the reason for BAB's drop seem wide of the mark. It's more likely IMO that this comment in todays trading update is the cause

"There are mounting pressures in the funding of UK defence programmes and this has resulted in the UK MoD pausing, cancelling or delaying numerous programmes. Within the last few weeks a number of our UK orders budgeted for 2017 have been affected.

UK hasn't Brexited yet.Take your loss and stop yapping.

[yump] 13/11/2017 15:40

Perhaps I should have expanded the point, which is that it should be rising because of Brexit, if you go by the Brexiteers arguments about the wonderful opportunities out there with the rest of the world, where many countries are forecast to expand their economies.

What explanation have you got ?

[minerve] 13/11/2017 15:02

As far as the latest update a few weeks ago. However, there have been some large trades 'booked' as sales today.

[essentialinvestor] 13/11/2017 14:57

Is Woodford still holding?.

[action] 13/11/2017 13:48

It is year low. Further down from here...

[minerve] 13/11/2017 13:13

If it goes down further I will add more. Scary death cross or no scary death cross.

[minerve] 13/11/2017 13:06

Big Foot Cheesy Grin on BAB.

[minerve] 13/11/2017 13:06

Death cross - oooohh. Scary! LOL

I am adding here today.
