Better to drip feed under the circumstances..

I didn't think results were that bad, in fact, I thought mixed, but, slightly positive. Anyway, the market will decide the floor but, I'm accumulating. I initially bought at 290p, current average 241p. Will add more under 200p if it gets there, BT.A is now my largest holding,

Time running out for the ex shampoo salesman I feel.

Unfortunately RMG started to grow when pension deal struck with CWU. BT has also done this but had the reverse effect.
RMG profit before tax last year £335m whereas BT was £2.3bn rising to £2.6bn this year.
Something is afoot.

Started the year around 275p....now 210p....already turning into a dog share for 2018...3rd year in a row going down...has to turn soon...

Justice, best of luck with your holding.
And agree, buying unloved sectors can pay off handsomely sometimes.

BT CEO Gavin Patterson will hope to use a relaunch of the group's consumer strategy this week to buy enough time to rebuild the world's oldest telecoms company and silence those investors questioning whether he can survive.
Thursday consumer update and ee relaunch

[redirect12] 14/5/2018 19:31

Maybe the update on Thursday might bring some good news

[hamhamham1] 14/5/2018 18:58

Yep it's a nice life to be a chief exec.

[diku] 14/5/2018 18:55

Think any technical bounce will probably be to around 217p - 220p...keep those who bought in last Thurs/Fri locked in...

[diku] 14/5/2018 18:53

The point I am making is he collects his salary with all the perks regardless of share price up or down...

[hamhamham1] 14/5/2018 18:46

I hope no one's lifestyle ever make a difference if BT share price goes down?

monty no;1...you in?...

[justiceforthemany] 14/5/2018 18:42

EBITDA £7.5Bn
EPS 27.9p
Dividend 15.4p
Yield >7%

Trading at 500p just 18 months ago - not a lot has changed to warrant a 60% drop in share price IMO.

[diku] 14/5/2018 18:41

T5 locked in...

How much does GP get paid?...salary + bonus + share freebies + company car + chauffer + general expenses + pension + etc etc etc....does his lifestyle ever make a difference if BT share price goes down?...

You keep saying that EI but Royal Mail recently amended their pension plan and the share price shot up in a couple of months from 370p to 620p (+170%). A revision is always possible here also.

BT's pension issues have been known about for DECADES - it is nothing new and the company are now taking significant measures to bring this down.

Rising interest rates will also help bring down the pension deficit and worth checking the consolidated balance sheet for the year just ended - net equity/assets is up quite markedly to £10.3Bn.

[hamhamham1] 14/5/2018 17:42

I am just looking at taking the divis and that'll do for me, I can wait for the capital growth. No rush.
Calling the bottom is an impossible art, so it's just a case of if you are happy with the price you pay now?
It's down to the individual I guess.

[essentialinvestor] 14/5/2018 17:39

Justice, may be worth keeping in mind net debt is around 50%
of their market cap. That's before considering years of heavy pension
contributions ahead, so P/E looks too rudimentary a valuation metric.

[declan2] 14/5/2018 17:36

I might buy few of these

[justiceforthemany] 14/5/2018 17:30

A P/E of 7 is far too low for a FTSE 100 £22Bn Market Cap Telecoms giant.
Final dividend 10.55p coming soon/Yield 5% alone.

[eisler] 14/5/2018 17:08

Sub-200 is a knocking bet this time round - got away with it last time, but think that continued bad news (or at least a lack of anything significantly positive), has made sure this will be heading towards 160-180 over the next few weeks. Keep your powder dry folks!

[kmann] 14/5/2018 16:46

Gone long, looks oversold imo, its not like BT are going bust is it! 300p will do me.

[colonelgrim] 14/5/2018 16:37

your not wrong there martin
