REED Elsevier is a global name in publishing information and financial services.

The group provides software to business, scientific and legal professionals and encompasses three core activities: its LexisNexis division (legal, tax and regulatory information); its Elsevier Division (scientific content); and its Reed Elsevier Division (producing online workflow tools).

As the media sector recovers we believe that Reed could outperform its peers. A large portion of its earnings are generated in the US where the legal database market is strongest and we think fears of further weakening in the legal business are overdone.

Revenue for this division should have reached a trough and confirmation of this should alleviate concerns in the market over the outlook. We also expect the firm to contain investment costs and believe that the overall earnings profile will improve.

Reed's science division continues to deliver solid growth from its subscription model and we expect an improvement for some of the cyclical operations, such as its exhibitions activities. Reed's new CEO has started to sound more confident in a recovery and is not expected to make many changes. Management has also come out strongly on cost-saving targets and these measures, along with plans for reinvestment in the business, should allay some fears that Reed requires a "step up" in investment costs to combat increasing competition in the publishing sector.

However, some risks remain in Reed's science & technology business activities, as there are concerns that a potentially free internet access model will mean a loss of market share – even though a successful free online model has not been developed.

iNVESTMENT CONCLUSION
fiE HAVE REACHED THE STAGE OF THE ECONOMIC CYCLE WHERE WE BELIEVE rEED IS LIKELY TO
OUTPERFORM ITS MEDIA PEERS AND ARE THEREFORE UPGRADING OUR RECOMMENDATION TO bUY. fiE
HAVE SEEN THE FIRST SIGNS OF AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE MORE CYCLICAL OPERATIONS AND BELIEVE
FEARS OF FURTHER WEAK TRADING IN THE lEGAL BUSINESS OVER OVERDONE. fiE EXPECT INVESTMENT
COSTS TO BE CONSTRAINED, AND ALL OF THE ABOVE SHOULD IMPROVE THE EARNINGS PROFILE OF THE
GROUP. oUR REVISED FAIR VALUE OF 660P IS BASED ON A SUM OF THE PARTS VALUATION. tHIS EQUATES
TO A Pe OF 14.5X BASED ON 2011 EARNINGS. tHIS IS IN LINE WITH rEED'S LONG-TERM AVERAGE Pe
MULTIPLE, WHICH LOOKS FAIR IN OUR VIEW, NOW THE CYCLE IS TURNING.

seems undervalued to me.....I'm sure it will catch up with the recent general market rally once all the printed (quantative easing) funny money reaches it too!

Heh - these reached to within 10p of the recent share placing price of 405p

think I will buy if we reach that price.... looking at the RNS suggests alot
of institutional level 'dumping' going on atm. Wondering if a load of large holders are selling the placement shares they received to grab a quick profit and then hope to buy back if the share falls below the placing price....

any thoughts?

What happened there then, no one like the new non exec director ?
If the market turns this one could be down below £4

Media companies fared well following a double sector upgrade to "overweight" from broker Credit Suisse.

Nick Bertolotti, analyst at Credit Suisse said: "We are closer to recovery. Although green shoots have yet to emerge, we now look two quarters closer and anecdotally are hearing of signs of stabilisation – a necessary first step in the recovery process."

Some of Mr Bertolotti's top picks were Reed Elsevier, up 17¼ to 457¼p, and WPP, up 3¾ to 388¼p.

Sorry I've not been around much of late guys, I've missed a few sitters because I've been run off my feet. With this:





That's me, and there's two good reviews on there by professional physicists. One even says he'll be referencing his book in technical papers, this sort of thing:




It's serious stuff, the real thing at last. It's Einstein's relativity with a couple of crucial developments that blow away string theory and leave loop quantum gravity for dead. As a result there's no time travel, no faster than light travel, no wormholes, and no parallel worlds. But now we understand energy, mass, charge, and particles at last, really digging down to the fundamentals, and that's going to make an enormous difference. Along with understanding what gravity is and how it works. It's all to do with impedance and a photon being a quantum of alternating current. Take a look at any picture of the electromagnetic spectrum



..and note that whilst the wavelength varies, the amplitude doesn't. That's the quantum of quantum mechanics, to do with Planck's constant of action h. Action is momentum multiplied by distance, and the distance is always 3.86 x 10-13m. This is why the electron comes in one size only, it's essentially a double-wrapped photon trapped by itself. Or tied in a knot if you prefer. Check out and annihilation to get a handle on it, and why we are in essence "made of light". That's why we always measure the speed of light to be the same.

I'm not kidding about this, Einstein didn't say the speed of light is always the same. He did in 1905, but not in 1911 or 1916. He said it varies with gravity. But what's called the modern interpretation of relativity contradicts him and airbrushes over what he actually said. Check it out:





It's really simple, even a kid can understand it. But I'm not sure when it's all going to break. Developments in physics take a heck of a long time to gain acceptance by what's called the mainstream, and there's rather more competition and vested interest than the general public realise. Some guy who's spent his whole career on dark matter ain't too chuffed to find out why it doesn't exist. Some head of department sitting on string theory funding will fight tooth and nail against the competition, and will try to howl it down.

Anyhow, at some point it's going to make a big big difference. You might think the world is turning to sh*t, but take heart. If you want to ask me anything please go ahead. Missing antimatter? No it isn't. Unification of the forces? No problem. Meanwhile look out for companies doing high-current high-voltage electrical work. And does anybody know any radar engineers?

Lack of comment on this thread, anyone suggest it's due a technical bounce, after all despite failing to offload RBI, I think insiders knew this last week hence large falls prior.

more like 620 tomorrow.with a recession in place this will work its way to 510p in the next few months.

All that said, they are right on the up trend they have been making since midJan so I'm more positive then negative that they will rise tomorrow and will try to break out above 690 in the coming 2-3 weeks.

What the hell happened here today ? I would have expected some build in the share price towards ex-div next Wednesday - not a drop of 2% ?! Thought they were upgraded too today ? Strange..
