unless we get a rally at the death back to 530

[apad] 10/12/2014 15:58

My Mum won't be able to resist a 5% yield!
Good timing on VSVS, wipo.

Htg broke 530p, no support now to 450p

[wipo1] 10/12/2014 11:58

Vsvs up 3.3pc :)

[wipo1] 09/12/2014 12:51

Apad, Hope your mum is right, good company wrong sector atm. Still 530p might hold and we could have a santa rally, If you're looking for a good yield have a look at VSVS. DYOR I am not ramping the stock just think it's good value and fund managers have been adding.

I wonder if family buys are a way of supporting the share price in order to ward off hostile takeovers? It must be a tempting target after all that capital investment - hard to know how many votes the family can control.

I try to wait until a low has been left behind wipo - very difficult to control the inner chimp though, especially when my Mum notices the 3.3% yield.

I would wait for 450p. I mind when HTG was around 80p.

My view is that there is a great buying opportunity a'comin when the cold front comes through.

mums watch list? This just got serious! lol.

Not pessimistic at all. I think you've hit the nail on its head.

[wipo1] 04/12/2014 21:57

Looking at the 5 year chart, support could be around 530p then 450p.

[apad] 04/12/2014 19:12

I guess the negative is that the recent capital expenditure, which led to all those nice new facilities and capacity, has come on stream just in time for orders to slow leaving the overheads with a sense of vertigo?
Or am I being too pessimistic……

Now on my Mum's watch list as an income share!

HHHM
may dip a tentative toe in the water here tomorrow if they open lower,was a few years ago and about 700p when I held these last, looks to be going into oversold territory, any chartists about?

[chester] 02/12/2014 16:14

Perfect trendline support bounce yesterday and also the 61% Fib retrace from December 2008 Low to March 2012 High = 572p. Bounced a closed above that yesterday.

[citymohawk] 28/11/2014 14:34

it's a beautiful chart because I think the sector is selling off without understanding the difference between the actual commodity and the service supply chain.

[apad] 27/11/2014 18:43

Same graph as WEIR, cm.
PFC effect plus general market sentiment driven by oil price fall.
Yields at about 2.5%, and rising, should provide some support, somewhen.
Not one for anticipating the turnaround though - might even turn me into a chartist!

[citymohawk] 27/11/2014 16:52

Well I'm certainly glad this is only on my watch list. Any thoughts?

[davidoffetc] 13/11/2014 20:59

Haliburton possible takeover of Baker Hughs. Could provide a boost for oil services.

[apad] 05/11/2014 14:32

Looking like a buy to me folks. Not much impact from North Sea inactivity. Did some consultancy for them in the mid 80s. Very well managed and capable. On my watch list now, but there is a lot of value in the oil services sector, so I might increase WEIR when Pfizer comes back :-)

I guess the key question is whether the HTG price is an over-reaction. I think the fact that they say "customer demand is not affected by recent oil prices" should definitely be taken with a pinch of salt, simply because its far too early days and I wouldn't have expected demand to be effected at this stage anyway.

Investec seem to have downgraded saying its currently a premium but analysts change their views every 5 minutes on this.

[redartbmud] 05/11/2014 07:53

I agree on the reaction to oil prices. The market expects a pull back in investment as projects are scaled back.

[citymohawk] 05/11/2014 07:40

Well interims look pretty normal. I wonder if this is reacting to the wider oil prices?
