You need to unfilter asap Biollocks..its the ramping rampoons with minjsniffing potential that have caused the bubble, hence setting off my Level 4 shaggers alarm for the doggie positions, ready to do battle.

Please not Sheila is still scouring the market at 18.94
Angela may well be added on Monday, if it starts blue.

Sanks.........exit target 17.51 for some knockered nipples into the Shaggers Fund

Hope this helps

I'm happy too! The way i see it through Sheila'snipples is that its in a bubble, hence it needs some assistance in bringing it to pop!

For that reason and my shaggers note out to clients today on the bubbled feel of DGE and many of the ramping nobular jockeys doing the usual rounds...i have just now placed Sheila into the market in her usual doggie position at £18.94

Please contribute to my Shaggers Fund at will.
Sanks...............with an easy peezy titty squeezy exit target of £17.51

Sheila - £18.94

Diageo has dropped back on worries about weaker spirits growth in the US and the loss of a key tequila deal.

Analysts at UBS have cut their earnings forecasts for next year, and moved their recommendation from buy to neutral.

In December Diageo pulled out of talks to buy tequila group Jose Cuervo, which leaves Diageo without a major tequila brand once its distribution deal with Cuervo ends in June this year. UBS also pointed to a short term weakening in US trading, and said:

We cut 2014 estimated EPS by 3% for (1) the loss of Cuervo distribution, (2) foreign exchange. Our new price target [down from £20.50 to £20] implies a 2013 PE of 18 times (currently trading on 16.8 times), therefore we see some potential for further re-rating, but no longer sufficient upside to justify a buy.

The bank also believes the prospect of acquisitions is more limited for now:

After an intense two years of activity, we see less M&A likely in 2013, particularly post Cuervo. We are bullish about the United Spirits deal [in India] but it is a slow burn turnaround. We see a low probability of Diageo acquiring Beam, or Moët Hennessy becoming available, short-term

Flavour of the month is banks, so profits have been taken here after a good run.

Some worries about inflation in China.

Whats weighing on the share price? Bit of a double whammy with it going the opposite direction of the FTSE. as well.

A good read for Diageo holders and African investors,

Industry data point to slowing sales of Scotch whisky to emerging regions, but global drinks groups are bullish on Africa

[tim 3] 04/10/2012 22:30

My best holding in my long term port up 57% in 18 months not bragging though also have tesco and aviva showing nasty losses!

Still see no reason to sell to be honest although divi is lower than I would usually look for.

[wad collector] 04/10/2012 22:09

Me too ; sold too early and waiting for a crash...

[philo124] 04/10/2012 20:29

[careful] 04/10/2012 18:19

a great company but price is too high.

[tim 3] 01/10/2012 16:49
