Monty. Declaring your positions won't affect the market, just your reputation :)

Monty only tells us he is short after the price is down

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 12:11

Monty. Yep, as you can probably tell :)
I am majority in cash in bank at the moment, I just cannot see where the markets are going over the next year or so. I saw BT as one of the few undervalued big companies and as I have worked on/with several parts of their networks over the years I feel I have a better insight to this share than other shares (but I will invest in others in the future, after any correction - am in no rush).
I answered your question, so please do the courtesy and reply with details on any shares you hold?

[lurker] 08/8/2018 12:09

MontyIs this still the best short in the FTSE as you advised a couple of weeks back?

Is this your only share ? You only post on this thread.

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 11:45

When you were a shareholder (ie 2 months ago) you were prepared to even go to the AGM (if you were in town) to give Gavin a peace of you mind????
Gavin has had 5 years to make his mark, the current share price of 240p would have to gain by another 65p (27%) just to get back to the 305p which it was the day before he got the job in 2013.

[montyhedge] 08/8/2018 11:41

Yes thats right, if I were a shareholder which I'm not, all Gavin plans seem to be working, investors panicked and jumped the gun to get rid of him, should have waited at least until the figures.

errrrrrr

So 'hope' is EITHER not an investment strategy unless your name is Montyhedge, OR it's only for a matter of minutes.....

montyhedge 8 Aug '18 - 11:13 - 30670 of 30672 "Nige I'm not short, going short tomorrow ex div, I HOPE BT reaches 245p today, then only drops 8p tomorrow, the bears are waiting."

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 11:35

Monty. You posted earlier that if you were still a shareholder you would want Gavin to stay, ie because the company is turning around now and showing that in latest results. Now I cannot overlay that logic with your last statement about opening a short in which you imply the share price is going fall a lot???

[smurfy2001] 08/8/2018 11:24

As long as the price remains above the lower trend line (from 2016) tomorrow then it's going to be very interesting to see how it pans out..

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 11:22

Monty. Well, this will be a test of your trading skills, you'd better hope that BT hasn't broken that downtrend. Personally, I think it has, so cannot see why you would risk it? But as you say, you are the trader and I am the long term investor. Time will tell, and it doesn't affect me, just you.

[montyhedge] 08/8/2018 11:13

Nige I'm not short, going short tomorrow ex div, I hope BT reaches 245p today, then only drops 8p tomorrow, the bears are waiting.

[nige co] 08/8/2018 11:10

Monty, at what price did you sell BT at? Thanks in advance.

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 11:00

Monty. I use the word 'hope' because that figure (or any other) isn't really relative to my investment here over a few years, it's just a figure I opted for to keep my interest up today on this bb. Any short term price doesn't matter, all that matters is that I get my divi allocated tomorrow and that I hold my investment for the medium/long term.
Hope is something more akin to trading I would imagine.

[montyhedge] 08/8/2018 10:51

Ham
Hope is not an investment strategy.

veryniceperson, of course your joking, I been posting every day on a rising shareprice.

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 10:45

I am hoping for 243p today :)

[veryniceperson] 08/8/2018 10:40

Monty and you like to post when they drop. The larger the drop the more posts.

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 10:40

Monty, what do you think of Elon's tweet?

[montyhedge] 08/8/2018 10:38

Nice to see a lot of posters come out the woodwork, where you been, you only post when BT go up, lol.

Ham
Your still 30% below me with followers, I still have the most of any poster, come on get going. lol

[mbmiah] 08/8/2018 10:29

Unfollow Monty I say loool

[veryniceperson] 08/8/2018 10:17

They will be down on ex divi. Let's just see how quick the price after returns to this level.

[hamhamham1] 08/8/2018 09:58

Well, the share price is up 37p (18%) since the day before his announcement to leave, so read into that what you want.

[veryniceperson] 08/8/2018 09:57

Why don't start a thread dedicated to Monty. He would love it.
