Chemring Share Discussion Threads

You would need a RWR, a Radar Warning Received or possibly two, one at the front and one at the back (in the middle?) and bearing in mind civil airliners are large, you would need an appropriate number of chaff and flare dispensers. There might be other issues to consider such as effectively putting explosives on a civil aircraft albeit in the form of defensive measures and everything from certification issues through to insurance, would you insure an aircraft that needed defensive measures because of the areas it was flying into. The cost, extra weight, aircraft down time and drag are some other issues.

I think a few more airliners would have to be shot down accidentally or deliberately to warrant such a modification, ten years ago I would said 99.9% unlikely to ever happen but then civil airliners were not under the apparent threat they are today, so 99.5% unlikely to happen guestimate, from this point on knock a couple of % off everytime it happens. Best bet remains to fly around trouble - avoid it!

What is more relevant if tensions remain high is that CHG's share price rose steadily during the last Gulf War for example, but you only need increased training and flying around hostile borders to increase the use of Chemring's products.

4.4% rise but regrettably and ultimately due to some poor souls misery and the potential of war - not good.

Interesting thought Clunes - does anyone know if it would be practical to fit the right equipment to throw chaff (foil) in the event of an attack on a commercial airliner? They already have radar, although I don't know if it can see G to A missiles.

[clunes100] 10/1/2020 10:58

Started to shift as people realise that anti missile flares will be on everyone's shopping list, especially if training and deployment ramps up, let's hope that it is not war, that would be bad news for everyone.

Will RWR and flares be fitted to civil airliners, unlikely but this is not the first time an airliner has been "accidentally" shot down in recent times.

Could not be better EssentialInvestor.Lots of tipsters out there but many of them would not be tipsters if they really knew what was going on, like us they would be making more money.Annoying sometimes to see a downgrade from someone who has a track record in getting it completely wrong moving the share price. Still, always good to see them tipping something you are in as it is usually time to get out.

Nice day, may get some New Year 2020 share tips?.

[cravencottage] 01/11/2019 22:11

I think we have the beginnings of a " Cup and Handle" chart...

Lets hope so..

[essentialinvestor] 01/11/2019 14:44

Strong statement, might be a nice medium term hold.

[our haven] 01/11/2019 07:05

Results ahead of expectations and contract award. Happy days, should see a strong rise today.

[davr0s] 07/10/2019 13:38

Yep silly end of day nonsense on Friday - tends to be the case 95% of the time which is why I tend not to get overexcited by UT values

[our haven] 07/10/2019 09:25

Spoke too soon

[our haven] 07/10/2019 08:28

Not a bad opening given Friday's close. Still no news so we will see.

[davr0s] 05/10/2019 17:40

Could just be silly end of day nonsense. Guess we will find out Monday

[our haven] 04/10/2019 18:00

Great finish with the large trades. See what happens Monday now.

[our haven] 11/9/2019 08:01

Good news on the contracts awarded. Good place to be for 2020 .

Questor: going on the offensive in the defence industry makes Chemring a valuable ally

[staples97] 05/6/2019 21:34

The internist are out. No shocks.

[our haven] 05/6/2019 18:41

Share price upward movement hopefully means good news tomorrow, earlier nerves forgotten.

[our haven] 04/6/2019 11:06

With the interim statement due Thursday I think that we are seeing some nerves ahead of this with the share price

[bobbybullet] 01/5/2019 22:46

Looks set for a re-rating. Production set to be restarted and the unfortunate accident put behind. I'm hoping for price around 200p by year end.

[pugugly] 22/3/2019 11:59

Looks as though BARC were right re post 74 - Only question now IS WHERE IS THE BOTTOM likely to be?

[deadly] 19/3/2019 15:21

up over 5% today. Any news?

[lombriz] 21/10/2018 21:34

But, as far as I can make out from the accounts, CHG aren't all that dependent on Saudi, unlike BAE for example.

[hawaly] 16/10/2018 09:01

Saudi related this am

[pvee] 15/10/2018 21:00

Sticking in a pin to find the donkey's tail anyone ?

Absolute nonsense by Barclays given the last update

Completely OTT and even worse than the usual 'brokers tips'

Believe

[lombriz] 15/10/2018 09:22

This is what caused last week's drop, but does anyone know what were the reasons given by Barclays for the downgrade?
