could see further downwards moves this week too £2.60 level and over shoot too the £2.50 level.

There were some heavy buying yesterday. I have an intuitive feeling that the bottom has reached and the rise should follow now. Also service sector showed strong growth in yesterday GDP data which stood at 0.8%.

Don't state things like that whilst UL7RAVIOLET is looking in - I think he is trying to short sell the shares - don't let him know I told you though.

[patricktrfc] 20/7/2007 12:40

The one thing with Biffa is that it is in a sector that is ripe for consolidation and with the current depressed share price there are bound to be a few potential suitors having a sniff around.

Could open the Sunday papers and see £3.75 offer just like that.


Worh a good punt as unlikely to go much lower and upside in terms of a rebound or a bid is far more probable.

looking for another leg down.£2.50 area.

[mitzis] 20/7/2007 11:23

A friend of mine a Biffa driver is on a warning for not having the right attitude and this after he almost lost a finger in a work accident a year back it makes you wonder.

[davidoj] 20/7/2007 11:18

Edmond?
How many have you seen loitering around at 4 am when the real hard work is being done? only judge them after you have judged yourself.
David.

[edmondj] 20/7/2007 10:25

There were about 4 of them, loitering around. Strange but maybe awaiting something. Recycling still not collected at 3pm. My local council is now monitoring performance.

Not a compelling story/valuation for me to buy into yet, calling a turn, but watching!

[jdung] 20/7/2007 10:21

3m shares trad at today, price hold well.
it is sign this is bottom. any comm, please.....

[johne1] 19/7/2007 17:02

Perhaps he was taking a p*ss?

[mitzis] 19/7/2007 16:55

I hope you took his number....

[edmondj] 19/7/2007 16:50

These brokers just react to whatever short-term angle as an excuse to get clients to churn, I am not put off by recent 'sell' recs but do want a firmer sense of value, to buy.

Curiously, I spotted a Biffa waste recycling lorry parked inconspicuously in a local lovers' spot this afternoon. Hmmm, not exactly on the job!

[patricktrfc] 19/7/2007 16:24

Sorry Ultra couldn't wait, nice T20 at 267ish....when this gets to 290, will be the easiest most relaxed £500 I have ever made, unlike my usual risky picks.

Ahh, can feel those twenties heading my way now.

[johne1] 19/7/2007 16:09

Yes sir!!!!

[46pete] 19/7/2007 13:07

Ul7raviolet,your crystal ball could be right!!

[mart] 18/7/2007 21:45

The headline from CS research department is:

Biffa's profits to be towards the lower end of market expectations. Downgrade rec. from Hold to Sell.

This was 4/4/2007.

I use CS and I should've noted this recommendation before I bought in several days ago. I have since closed. The chart does not look good. I guess there may be bounces but will they be sustained?
DYOR etc

Good luck.

[46pete] 18/7/2007 18:04

my bank balance is looking bear. lol

[johne1] 18/7/2007 15:59

The bears are winning over the rubbish.

[ul7raviolet] 18/7/2007 15:08

I'VE GIVEN THE WARNING...I GAVE THE CALL...I'LL GIVE THE BUY..(WAIT)

[ialwayswinatmonopoly] 18/7/2007 12:26
