'US Reviewing Support for Saudis After Brutal Massacre, But Will Arms Sales Stop?'

[minerve] 09/10/2016 21:34

I hope not. It would be a fools game if they start and follow idiots like Dianne Abbott's doctrine.

I agree though, I am not hopeful of seeing this gain much tomorrow/this week.

[spoole5] 09/10/2016 21:23

Yep a ban on arms sales to Saudi Arabia will be on the cards now.

[philanderer] 09/10/2016 20:55

Going to get hit tomorrow I reckon after that Saudi atrocity in Sanaa. Government wilL review future Saudi contracts.

So, no consideration of a 'game changer', hmm.

Beaufort Securities


BAE Systems (LON:BA., 537.0p) - Buy

BAE Systems provided a trading update for 2016. The trading has been in line with management expectations and outlook for 2016 remains unchanged. BAE Systems expects underlying earnings per share expected to be around 5% to 10% higher than last year's adjusted underlying earnings per share of 36.6p.

BAE Systems is moving well on discussions with the UK government and the Saudi Arabian government to define the scope and terms of the next five-year Saudi British Defence Co-operation Programme. The Group would pay an interim dividend of 8.6p on 30th November. BAE Systems will announce its financial results for the year ending 31st December 2016 on 23rd February 2017.

Our view: BAE Systems expects to deliver good performance in 2016. The Group made good progress in the UK working with its MoD customer on implementing the Strategic Defence and Security Review. In July, BAE Systems signed a Typhoon support partnership agreement worth £2.1bn over a ten year period. In the maritime domain, the UK Successor Submarine production programme started with first steel cut on the 5th October and around £1.3bn of funding committed for the initial production award.


In surface ships BAE Systems is moving towards defining an overall Type 26 build contract. In addition, a contract is being finalised for the fourth and fifth new River Class Offshore Patrol Vessels. The outlook of the defence market remains positive in the US. BAE Systems delivered six ships under its shipbuilding contracts. The Group's export activity continues to be supported by the UK government.

The Group's strategic hold over the markets is growing strong and it is expected to perform in line with the 2016 guidance. We believe BAE Systems is well placed with substantial resources and funds to deliver long-term growth. We maintain a Buy rating on the stock.

BAE Systems in arms talks with Saudi Arabia

Busy day ;-)

The U.S. Army has awarded BAE Systems a $13.5 million order to begin producing the new Family of Weapon Sights-Individual (FWS-I) thermal weapon sight for soldiers. Under the low rate initial production award, the company will deliver more than 100 weapon sight systems as part of a previously announced five-year contract for the Army’s Enhanced Night Vision Goggle III and Family of Weapon Sight-Individual (ENVG III/FWS-I) program

No, he'll trade the in, not sure for what.

Bond purchases:

I'm surprised this is allowed to happen because it is generally business support and I wonder how it fits within EU rules? If the BOE buy BAE bonds then it should lower the yields and give BAE opportunity to cheapen its debt.

[essentialinvestor] 01/10/2016 17:11

Got some under 5.18 yesterday. Never tend to hold BAE for long,
see how next week looks, if the price drifts down may have a few more.

One point to make even at this very early stage, BAE better have their project
cost calculations bang on the money with Trident replacement.

[minerve] 01/10/2016 17:02

Thanks philanderer.

Minerve, thankfully I am not a trader but have a fair few shares in half a dozen companies in my SIIP. One of which is BAE. the majority of which were bought through the company shares scheme. Now retired I have far too much to do and could not be a proper trader, but the various divi's enhance the pension!
