An appealing switch given recent performance is out of Imperial and into BATS.Bit of that today perhaps.

Poo- price of oil

6 times in 3 years, he may have been out in the sun too long.
Fuel costs alone will impact consumer spending if poo stays around current levels.

£ up......

Bank of England policymaker Gertjan Vlieghe has predicted that interest rates could rise up to six times in the next three years, sending the pound jumping.

steeplejack

I agree, my £30 would undoubtedly be the result of a cut in dividend or similar "huge" shock. I have to say such news LOOKS really unlikely, however there must be a reason for the continued weakness, one which perhaps we investors are not privy to. For this reason and the comming end of the investment cycle, I will sit on my hands until I feel I know what is going on.

This has to be close to "bottoming" out..... just added 147 shares to my existing holding anticipating the bounce

Just bought my first tranche this afternoon at £37.59, sick of people blowing smoke in my face so might as well make money from them ;-)

The chart is not that easy to read.Its a classic head and shoulders and looks to be complete which suggests that ,after a period of consolidation,we should swing higher but if it breaks down through £36 then I suppose that £30 is quite feasible.The stock would be yielding getting on for 7 per cent if that occurred though.I reckon the yield restricts the downside from here.

[thanksamillion] 21/5/2018 14:53

I have a v.small holding in BATS which I will continue to hold, however I cant help feeling that £30 is a possibility at some point. No obvious reason, its just where the chart seems to point.

A third of the world smokes in developing countries, I can't see how their business could die (excuse the pun).

[philanderer] 21/5/2018 11:06

This one needs a right old kick up the @rse :-)

16th may Credit Suisse outperform tp 5200p cut from 5800p

[this_time_its_different] 15/5/2018 09:47

BATS should not be trading this low, it is going to spike eventually and then greed will take over. Wait for the june trading update, that could do it.

[chiragmahe] 15/5/2018 08:40

could go lower than 38

[dbensimon] 10/5/2018 08:08

Here we go again....struggling to keep above 40 at the moment

[philanderer] 09/5/2018 16:28

Better day and a nice dividend into the account. 👍🏼

[philanderer] 08/5/2018 17:16

Jefferies reiterating 'buy' not doing much good. 😬

[stepone68] 08/5/2018 15:48

Can you try selling some, thanks.

[chiragmahe] 08/5/2018 15:07

As soon as I buy it goes down
