Itv Share Discussion Threads

Stockready - cannot agree with your comments. There will always be a market for an on stream media provider. Even if they have access, not everyone will want to watch the type of programmes shown on the streaming services. Many people want live entertainment. Also don’t forget ITV Studios produce some of the content for the streamers. Unlike you, I think ITV’s best days are ahead and I confidently expect a large increase in revenue/profits in the coming years and a return to a good dividend.

The ITV (LON:ITV) Share Price Is Up 49% And Shareholders Are Holding On

[nige co] 04/6/2021 07:21

Upset? You make me LOL, you sound like C7.
When ITV recovers to 160p will you come back and apologise?

[stockready] 03/6/2021 23:11

This stock is complete and utter waste of time and money
Don't waste your time please.
I can post you at least 5 different FTSE100 you can invest in and make lots of money longer term

And ITV is not even in that list or even bottom of the long list
ITV is a finished business and soon you will know why.

The current CEO done FA to turn this around, she knows nothing and she had done nothing as a results which is well reflected on current share price.

Put your money where you can make real money and add values

ITV is not one of them

I am sorry to be so blunt and I know lots of people don't like to hear this but it truly bothers me coming here and seeing people still think this stock will do anything at all and they put their money in this LARGE HOLE which is just sinking

DYOR please
But please honestly do a proper research to this and understand ITV is no longer money making media, competition like YOUTUBE, Netflix, and amazon together with COVID changed that forever, they are done and
Finished, they go nowhere

It is matter of time

CEO must resign and go and that doesn't help them recover either, she was the worse thing ever happen to ITV, a total clueless who really destroyed what was remaining of ITV

All the best, LOVE to say I hope you make loads of money here, but sadly I know this will not happen not even a slightest chance

Really sorry to be blunt, but if this can even help ONE person I am more than happy to put my views out here despite perhaps many gets upset.

now that is a negative post, put your helmet on

although i can see why people here think that someone not thinking every large trade is part of THE takeover is negative lol

i see a short term return to 140 and dividend reinstatement leading to the best long term outcome

[stockready] 03/6/2021 21:31

More than 2 months ago I came here and said don't waste your time and your money with this stock and it will go no where
That is exactly what happened here
I reinstate my sentiment again
Don't waste your time, ITV and current management goes no where
Don't expect any share recovery
The game have changed and they are way way behind
I don't think they will exist as current institution in less than a year or two

They are finished

Get out while you still can

Purely my honest opinion

The FTSE is down and so is ITV, no heavy trading just tiddly dribbles and MM's marking down.

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 13:41

marki will try to be polite as you seem easily offendedi will try to be clear as you seem to like making up responses to posts i never madei didnt predict itvs entry into ftse 100 it was reported as confirmed on here the other day - so maybe you need to pay more attention?i did call you out for posting that you were a not your usual advfn poster - your words - thats the issue here isnt it?like a long list of advfn posters you call people a troll when you dont like the answer- so you seem pretty much advn standard to metry not to introduce yourself as special when jumping into a conversation, people might take you a bit more seriouslyhope you have learned something herehave a nice day

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 12:40

totally unrelated to what you were complaining abouthave a nice day

[nige co] 03/6/2021 12:35

There weren't paltry amounts of shares traded last month though were they Stan? On May 5th there were more shares traded in the US than the UK. This was very unusual activity, I for one won't be ruling out a potential USA predator. Time will tell.

I'm sure that if ITV were a USA company, ITV would have a higher valuation than it currently has on the LSE. This could be said about most UK stocks. IMHO of cause.

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 12:20

but you dont agree that it is not for you say what acceptable commissions or the processes involved may be ?or why buyers of paltry amounts are willing to pay a few percent extra for a foreign share?such volumes are very clearly not related any takeover activity, so why should someone paying a few percent extra in the usa for literally 1000 uk shares move the the uk price up?of course it shouldnt and it doesnt

[nige co] 03/6/2021 12:11

Stan, I agree regarding comparing share volumes of USA & UK.

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 09:59

nigei do see where you are coming from, but its not up to you to decide on what factors are allowed to inflate the price, how many middlemen may be involved, what the buyers reasons were for paying 2% on top etc etc etcwere it not for the recent exceptional 40m trades you could literally ignore all previous usa trading, it is basically irrelevant, often only 1000th of uk volumethink about that - and i appreciate the irony - half the posts on this board regard 1000th of the daily trading volume that after currency costs is a few percent out of whacktotally irrelevant

[nige co] 03/6/2021 09:37

Stan, I understand all the above, but I still come back to what I said previously, its the same company and should be valued around the same, apart from taking in to account the currency exchange rate.

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 09:25

its not hard thats the problemits very easy to understandthe float there is smaller, it costs money to transfer shares, there are currency exchange costs and other items, then there the fact that a days volume is less often less than a single trade in the ukwhen all these things are the same then you get the same price? ive seen you post on the discrepancy only to check the volume and a trade of 10 adrs is the only trade? why should a trade like that affect anything?

[nige co] 03/6/2021 09:12

Both valuations should be approximately the same, its the same company after all. What's hard about that?

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 08:49

nigereally?the adr PRICE is the uk VALUATION plus a premiumthe price paid is inconsequential anyway, given the daily volume is equal to 5 mins on lsewhat is so hard about that?

[nige co] 03/6/2021 08:38

"ADR's closed $19.75 +$0.80 (+4.22%) = 139.40p"

Typical ITV price down 1.6p @ 129.25p

TEN PENCE PER SHARE BELOW THE ADR VALUATION. RIDICULOUS.

[stansmith3] 03/6/2021 08:26

mark

the 40m trades in the usa were truly exceptional

the 20k normal volume in the usa is NOT takeover related

that trading gets 100x the attention it deserves here

a takeover may or may not be in the works, stopped clocks are eventually correct

however, get used to huge to trades before and after the cut off date - these are ftse250 and ftse 100 funds exchanging shares

sorry to disappoint
i dont understand how you thinking you being a non standard punter adds anything to your opinion, but good luck anyway, hope you just learned something

[marksp2011] 03/6/2021 07:56

StanI am not a standard ADVFN punter. I am pretty successful running two portfolios as proper portfolios not a bunch of stocks that have no strategy behind them. The trading patterns of itv suggest that there is something happening here. If there isn't. We have an improving story certainly for the next couple of quarters and a return to dividends.After that I will be gone as the current structure for itv won't give me the growth I want and it won't tick my boxes. If the company split it would be more attractive. If I can see that I am sure others who could make that happen can see it too.I don't think there is much room for negativity for the remainder of this year 160 is probable but that is likely it in the current structure. Risk/reward is on the side of holders the short term

[stansmith3] 02/6/2021 23:56

hades would prefer to think its a takeover than the obvious shuffling betweek ftse250 and ftse100 funds...
