I think external events between Israel and Iran over the coming days, weeks, months will boost the price.
That's an observation and not my reason for investing.

Pierre

How is your BT shares doing?????

Told you near £5 to sell. Should have listened to THE MINERVE!

Minerve was invited to the game
Minerve played the game
Minerve won the game

BT continue to impress I see.

[montyhedge] 10/5/2018 09:41

My target is still 195p.

Time to break up this dinosaur of a company

They need to readjust, just not in the 21st century

BREAK UP TIME

When things are looking up over hire staff...and when it goes pear shape fire some staff here and there...

It would be worse if they didn't put a plan together to tackle costs, etc.
IMO the fact that they have a plan is a positive, rather than bumbling along.

BT has laid off so many people , well over 12000, and rehiring 6000 engineers. this sounds to me very dramatic in strategy and must be after considerable review to adjust to the new market condition. feel like it is a good thing. hopefully all the troubles are behind the company.

Bet Michael Owen & Rio are worried....

What's the view on this board on a divi cut post results ??

[justiceforthemany] 10/5/2018 09:00

EBITDA £7.5Bn. Net Debt £9.6Bn. So just over 1.2x EBITDA. Anything up to 3x EBITDA is acceptable for most so this is well within that.

Chasing shares just for divi is yesterday's era...think price downgrades from brokers coming over the next few days...the usual broker tricks to support their agendas/clients...

Disappointing.

pe is calculated after pension contributions and debt interest.

[nocrapversion4] 10/5/2018 08:56

some stocks have p/e of 40 but the growth is 100% in earnings, hence these are still cheaper and better value than bt.imo

there is no point getting a 7% div if the share price falls by 20% plus in a year..

its total return that counts.

[ianood] 10/5/2018 08:55

No, divi confirmed just a tad worried about the increase in debt via bond issue?

[justiceforthemany] 10/5/2018 08:55

Pension deficit will be paid off in time. No rush.

[diku] 10/5/2018 08:54

Anybody thinking divi cut hence the slam down?..

[essentialinvestor] 10/5/2018 08:53

Price earnings takes no account of the mountainous pension deficit or net debt,
it's a useless valuation metric for BT.

[careful] 10/5/2018 08:49

who needs growth when pe is 8?
some theories are crazy.

[nocrapversion4] 10/5/2018 08:46

if p/e is 8 but growth in earnings is 1% then the peg ratio is 8 and you want it below 1. so overvalued, wait till p/e gets nearer 1 or peg ratio goes down.

[careful] 10/5/2018 08:46

just topped up just under 220p.
fools rush in.

[diku] 10/5/2018 08:42

Monty...where are you?...
