Citigroup upgraded these to a buy, target 550...

[broadwood] 14/9/2009 10:02

Blimey, these have just bolted up.

Can't see any evidence of stakebuilding from recent RNS's.

I hold BOY aswell.

[drectly] 14/9/2009 09:49

I hold BOY, not IMI, they usually track closely together, recent increase in IMI strong indication of stake build

[broadwood] 14/9/2009 08:27

Just bought into this modestly.

Hope I havn't missed too much.

Quick 10% will do.

Any more news of Honeywell coming to pounce?

[cagey76] 27/7/2009 12:45

gets a mention on Alphaville Markets Live today

[credemus] 27/7/2009 11:58

Honeywell are back and sniffing around apparently.

[scallywagkid] 23/7/2009 14:18

Anybody know why today's sudden rise?

[killieboy] 09/12/2008 14:28

What is going on here then - no apparent reason fpr the rise today.

[pallett] 14/11/2008 14:09

Does anyone have any idea why IMI are continuing to be hit so hard after having produced such reasonable results?

[killieboy] 30/5/2008 11:32

Good article in IT today.

kibes

I find broker recommendations "interesting". I never cease to wonder how come different brokers can issue notes on the same day, with diametrically opposite recommendations. Leaves me convinced they know about as much as I do, which is not a lot.

Having said that, IMI looks good to me, from a technical analysis viewpoint.

Re - post 11 price now at 513p so its bollo*ks to Goldman Sachs. Perhaps they had better concentrate on shoring up their own balance sheet and writing off all those CDOs, sub prime losses, off balance sheet SIVs etc etc. I am adding Goldman Sachs to my 'conviction sell list'.

[lightning] 09/5/2008 08:56

Interims well received, so far. Up 7% at present.

[killieboy] 01/4/2008 11:05

This one looking good - possible bid coming from US??

12/01/08 Telegraph :

No cheer for beer taps firm


IMI, the engineering group whose products range from oil valves to beer taps, slid 21¾ to a four-year low of 334½p after Goldman Sachs piled more pain onto the troubled group.

The broker downgraded the stock to sell from neutral and added it to its "conviction sell list", saying: "While IMI has been a poor performer since a disappointing trading statement in December, we see scope for further disappointment." IMI's shares have almost halved since July amid growing fears that an economic slowdown will be bad news for the engineering industry. The group has also been hit by an ongoing bribery probe at its Severe Service division which is likely to harm revenues.

Goldman Sachs believes IMI could suffer because of its exposure to the weakening US economy. IMI reports full-year results in March and the broker thinks the outlook statement could disappoint "with four of its five divisions dealing with some sort of challenge".

Any views on todays drop. Are they looking cheap even though they may be fined.

[jeanal] 13/8/2007 14:34

Anyone know what self-insured means in regard to IMI's flood damage in Yorkshire?

[lightning] 02/7/2007 11:51

I've just put a toe in the water with a small buy, hope that is not the kiss of death but the long term trend is upwards.

[aceofdiamonds] 02/2/2007 15:24

Most definately Typo, I am a long time watcher of these shares - a little lacklustre in the recent past but pretty exciting since 2002 with I suspect either more to go or an acquisition target itself. They have a significant war chest but require a large acquisition sometime soon. Either way I would rate this a buy.

This thread is remarkably dead. Has no-one noticed the rise on high volume over the past few days?
