Bt Share Discussion Threads

excell1. I hear you. I don't think I will be 'overtrading' - I may well be 'overposting' though ;)
I am going to hold there for 5 years and see what happens.
Even if the share price is only 350p in 5 years time, I would have had a nice steady income (hopefully) and if the share price is up by 60%, that's probably the equivalent of me renovating 3 properties (with a 20% net profit).
I could have put the cash invested here into a flat and got a fixed income that way, but I am not into rentals - I guess I am not a people person ;)
I am mostly cash at the mo, market is well hard to read and so many assets (shares/property/etc) are all at near decade highs. I don't think I have the guts or skills to put more to work currently :(

When do HMG publish broadband plans?

Has Gavin announced he's now staying...…?

[excell1] 17/7/2018 10:20

Same place as you ham currently, no property to renovate.Have done several over the years but one has to ask themselves,is it worth it now. With property stamp duty on second homes plus you used to get a certain amount of months free in my area for the rates bill (now gone).Then there is legals etc.
You can get tempted to overtrade on the stock market, have also done that before, resist if you can.

Someone mentioned 219p support last week, that wasn't far off. Bowl still nicely intact, imo.

Yeah, right.

Totally agree ham have been saying this for ages.

Only companies like Sky who's whole business is focused around TV sport can justify the obscene amount payed for TV rights.

Can not see how BT can possibly claim they get a good return on the £bn's they spend on it.

Down trend still imminent

[hamhamham1] 17/7/2018 08:12

Can anyone calculate the current share price if you strip out the EE purchase?
i.e. The current value of the share price for just the original BT aspect?

Re: IMM
I also said it was never a 1-way bet, gutted I didn't sell when up 120% but knew the risks.

Rewards from the likes of BT unlikely to be 120%, at least not in the short or medium term, still, I tend to have much more capital tied up in these type of companies and look for income whilst the share price recovers. Anyway, off to the day job now.

Ice. News says the PM is trying to avoid a leadership challenge? Is the early recess rumour true? I wonder when the DCMS report will be published, that could only leave a day or so?
EDIT > of they wait till September?



Wllm. Yes, I have time on my hands currently, recently finished in IT and also stopped renovating property as cannot find a decent return in it at the moment (in my area anyway).

Re. IMM, I was constantly under attack there for expressing my fears that the drug tests could fail and saying that I wouldn't put all my money into the share.
It failed the test, and many lost a fortune, that's the cowboy world of AIM IMO.

[wllmherk] 16/7/2018 21:06

Ham, I remember you from the IMM thread. I take it you don't work as you post quite a lot. Not having a go, just an observation. I hold these but, underwater quite a bit. Like yourself I intend to hold for several years, my retirement is 8 years away,
unless my lottery ticket comes up.

wllm :)

[iceman82] 16/7/2018 20:54

when they publish that report ham?

[action] 16/7/2018 20:48

Still bullish trend support 219 and resistance 232p

[gymratt] 16/7/2018 16:17

Someone mentioned 219p support last week, that wasn't far off. Bowl still nicely intact, imo.

[iceman82] 16/7/2018 16:04

you are right ham price went up so much so quick that price retreat is normal.

[hamhamham1] 16/7/2018 11:09

Well it's not a BT specific thing. BT is down less than Vodafone or talktalk today. Both BT and Voda down about 5% in last week, hard to gauge talktalk as their price is up and down all the time.

[mbmiah] 16/7/2018 10:29

Sometimes no news is bad news. Results out end of the month, so might see further depression of share price before then. GLA

[hamhamham1] 16/7/2018 08:39

Probably, and that is why I will settle for an average of 2p gain per week over the next 15 months. That's about 0.9% weekly gains at current levels through to 0.6% weekly gains at 350p area.
Seeing how the share price has been nearly two and a half times current levels only a couple of years ago, I don't think I am asking for the moon here.
If it takes 15 months or 5 years, I am happy to wait.

[montyhedge] 16/7/2018 08:34

Run up to quickly.

[hamhamham1] 16/7/2018 08:21

IMO sentiment has not changed in the last 2 weeks, what news would have changed sentiment in the last 2 weeks?

[montyhedge] 16/7/2018 08:20

Sentiment. Needs a good rns to push higher from this level.
