Bought some @ 250p will add a few more on improvement ex divi on Thursday , decent yield until share price recovers.

[eisler] 06/11/2017 10:28

Don't fret - always the same on a Monday, normal service will be resumed soon enough - do not adjust your set. Red will return later or tomorrow.

It is for BT should have been 245p this morning.

[andy84uk] 06/11/2017 09:55

its up 1.5p, id hardly call that piling in.

[montyhedge] 06/11/2017 09:51

The Monday morning punters piling in on BT.

TBH ignoble I don’t agree with the cut. You are still using the same local cable whether or not you have BB. This is what the rental is to cover and it’s maintenance regardless.
Pure political move by BT and unwarranted.

Nice to see BT cutting my landline charge
Have to wait until next April
Why cannot they cut it immediately

As they have been overcharging hope it is backdated to when the overcharging began !

Some hope

EssI think a good thing if they cut the final.But football rights next year how much is that going to cost? I would love to turn bullish on BT but just can't see a reason. Everyone one saying there are cheap. I don't think so.Posters on here said cheap at 315p. They must have rose tinted specs on.

Think it was from Mootley Fool...

[davidbennett] 05/11/2017 08:41

Thanks for that Diku, very interesting.

Can you post a link please or tell me where you saw it

From the media...

Going cheap

With BT's stock trading at just 9 times forward earnings, it's perhaps inevitable that value-focused market participants are beginning to rub their hands with glee. With the valuations of many top companies beginning to look somewhat rich, BT surely offers that margin of safety so treasured by investing legends such as Warren Buffet. While no guarantee that a particular investment will be successful, buying when market participants are at their most pessimistic does have the attraction of limiting downside risk.

But it's not just bargain hunters that are likely to be tempted by BT's shares. A forecast dividend yield of almost 6.3% for the current year is clearly far more than you'll get from a cash savings account for the foreseeable future. Moreover, the company's decision to maintain its progressive dividend policy will no doubt have pleased those holding the stock purely for its bi-annual payouts. It might be argued that the decision to follow several other FTSE 100 constituents (including National Grid and Legal & General) and set the interim dividend at 30% of the prior year's full-year dividend also brings some much-needed transparency for owners.

Sure, BT's huge pension deficit and the uncertainty surrounding the future of its Openreach infrastructure business (which maintains the UK's principal telecoms network) may mean that a full recovery will take longer than expected. From both a value and income perspective, however, BT looks very interesting indeed.


Buy on the dips

Buying quality companies on temporarily depressed share prices is just one way of significantly increasing your chances of growing wealthy from your investments.

Yes your right, 195p for me.

montyhedge3 Nov '17 - 09:04 - 25997 of 26042 0 0
My target was 265p when these were 315p. My target after yesterday is 235p.



After the results were out the bold Monty put out a 195p price target. Less than 24 hours later it is 235p. What will Mutley's price target be tomorrow I wonder.
Just reiterating in case there are any newbies around under the impression this halfwit has a clue about anything. Don't filter him though, there's comedy value here.

There is so much potential for BT, yet so much danger. It is possible to see regulators being appeased by the actions of Openreach and BT bring treated more favourably and recovering rapidly. But it is also possible to see the company collapse under the weight of the pensions black hole. Until the liability review, it is hard to see the shares being sought after.

The tip of an iceberg?

Academia is sub-tropical so we didn't see any of those anyway.

If you set your chart to 8 years you can see more of the iceberg!

[diku] 04/11/2017 20:19

Look at the 5 year chart...what do you see?...

[kazoom] 04/11/2017 19:56

Actually I holidayed in Academia once (for 3 years) and I often reversed from text book mountain.

I much preferred Theakston's lake.

[kazoom] 04/11/2017 19:03

text book mountain?

Isn't that in the lost kingdom of Academia?

[diku] 04/11/2017 19:01

It is on a text book mountain reversal...

[kazoom] 04/11/2017 19:01

DMF - the forecasting site that monty pointed to :



is just some kid playing with algo.s (possibly even monty himself)

It has no credibility whatsoever.

Try taking a snapshot of the site and come back in a couple of months time and tell us how accurate it has been!

[dmf] 04/11/2017 18:55

OK.....after the technical bounce.....then continual erosion of share price ...possibly to 125

[diku] 04/11/2017 17:45

RSI is grossly oversold & is on the floor...technical bounce to 266p coming...No Advice Intended...
