It probably wasn't wise for the Government to encourage more start ups for Broadband given the costs involved. Many millions have been spent and with costs flying upwards it's gonna end up with most of them going to the Wall like the old Cable Companies in the 80's and 90's.

BT Group PLC's (LSE:BT.A) share price could more than double, according to JPMorgan, which thinks 2024 could be a “break-outR21; year for European telcos.

The investment bank’s bullish sector stance is based on price increases which imply upside risk to consensus, EBITDA growth, free cash flow increases, “best-in-class" EPS growth, falling interest rates and prospects for further consolidation in the sector.

How the market narrative gets flipped and tossed around...first high rates were bad for technology shares...now high rates for longer is good for technology shares...until the next narrative flip and toss around...its a casino...end off...

I have noticed, while in Scotland over the weekend, some of my mates are switching from VIRGIN to BT...

Are BT doing good deal at present?

I know the market prefers "show me do not tell me" stories so it will not pay up for BT today, but when the FTTP programme ends in 2026 and the cost savings programme is fully delivered the Group will be producing literally billions of pounds in extra annual free cash flow within a couple of years which will have people looking back in disbelief that this traded on 6x earnings in 2023.

The markets at some point correct themselves to the mean. The chances of overvalued shares with no dividend going down is far riskier than undervalued shares paying dividends going up!
The derisk of Pension Funds has been the main factor in many of our devaluations 50% to under 3% is a massive drop by any standards!!
BT take note - you are one of the main culprits!

We can buy overvalued USA shares or undervalued UK shares.

Not happy with either.
Apple at PE over 30 and yield of 0.5%.
Many UK shares with PE 10 yield 5%

No money going in here .

Liquidity rules all markets, but shares are not houses.
An identical property in Bradford is worth a fraction of one in Richmond, London.
..but rents are effective dividends, and much higher in London.

On balance I prefer undervalued shares paying good dividends.

Pension Funds need to be more diversified. With such big yields on FTSE stocks they should be holding alot more.
Hardly anything even trades at NAV!

FTSE needs reforms...what progress since Y2000?...

There are many ways the can use it for their own purposes...the tories pledged to stop it falling into foreign hands...that limits things does it not?Labour will no doubt introduce lots of customer friendly profit limiting rules...

BT are doing the job of covering BB across the Country. Corbyn mooted privatisation but we all know he was a bit of a Nutter.
There's no need and it's too costly when it's being done anyway. BB could be given away free and paid for by Government but can't see it myself.

I personally don't think Starmer will be nationalising anything, let alone BT. It's pretty impossible to do now anyway.

Our thoughts turn to fearing what labour will do to BT.
Scary that they could find a way to control companies without nationalisation.

We have to write off the inept Tories, even their strongest supporters are sick of the mess they have left.
Some of it, post Brexit, is this migration shambles where freedom of movement within the EU has been replaced massively by immigration from developing countries.
To think that many voted Brexit to control our borders.

Irreversible, we have lost our National Identity, there is no such thing as British Characteristics anymore.
Many would argue this rich diversity of race or religion is a good thing.

But we can be sure of a Labour victory for many other reasons. How will this effect BT.
What should we do about it?
