the smart money will dump the utilities ahead of the election next year.
they will all promise to reduce electricity and other utility bills to be popular.
the regulator will get tougher when deciding the return on assets.

This fall seemed to start yesterday evening in the US market. It seems to me, as HF trading bots dominate the market, you just have to wait for their priorities to be changed,short term violent swings up and down have little to do with company performance and prospects. Long-term holding works out if the the company has a good business model, including resilience to events outside its control. NG has shown itself to epitomise this.

JP Morgan have reiterated their neutral stance which probably isn't helping.

'Gutterhead' appears to be aptly named.

[gutterhead] 02/6/2014 22:04

I think the div is already priced in?

[keelstow] 02/6/2014 21:06

could break 900p tomorrow but will go ex-div 28p lighter on weds!

[gutterhead] 02/6/2014 20:44

Will be good to break and hold above 900p. This is a great income share with the share price catching up. Gla

A new high @896 earlier.

This is becoming one of my favourite shares. Like me, I think people are looking more and more for a steady return, which will probably help this share price to well over £9.00. Yep, profit taking will add in the occasion drop, and like someone else recently pointed out, these give good opportunities to buy.
Feels safer than bricks and mortar to me!

I wonder if this can break 9 pounds before ex div

[bountyhunter] 20/5/2014 16:44

27.54p XD 4jun

[newbank] 20/5/2014 12:59

Bit of profit taking occuring, hence the slight drop.

The 2010 Rights Issue was one of the most profitable I've ever taken up.

Prospect of negative savings rates in Europe will push this higher.
