No indication of sale price or RNS announcing the deal. Is this a significant transaction or just a minor disposal?

First half fall of 25% is starting to make this look good value as a recovery play with the added bonus of a 10p dividend providing a 3.8% yield. So onto the watchlist it goes.

Chart support gone.

Hopefully 250p will hold next week.

Goldmans 'sell' and 259p target pretty impressive.

'Best of British' bargain smaller stocks

Small and mid-sized UK companies have been oversold indiscriminately since March, according to experts and Questor brings five of the best shares

DS Smith

– Oversold after the annual results, we believe the current valuation reflects neither the fundamental quality of the business, nor the potential for earnings upside through organic growth and inorganic events.

Questor view – The recycled packaging maker has benefited from "particularly strong" trading in Europe. The encouraging manufacturing data and strong dividend growth make for a compelling investment. Questor maintains its Buy rating.

Euro falling again = $1.26514

DS SMITH

Berenberg has kept its "buy" rating, but cut the target price to 350p from 400p. The broker thinks the fall of DS Smith stock since its results in June has been an over-reaction, and remains confident in DS Smith's larger, more innovative business model in a tough packaging market

I agree emerald,extremely good value at this price,solid company with a strong connection to Procter and Gamble etc.Every dip is an opportunity for a good long term investment.

[emeraldzebra] 09/7/2014 15:36

Seems hugely oversold. 75 p off the top - on a high quality outfit. 33 percent off what many of the top brokers seem to think as a fair price. and a useful divi. Nice one to tuck away i would hope.

[matt123d] 09/7/2014 11:08

Relative strength off the bottom of the triangle.
