Royal Mail Share Discussion Threads

The decline in UK parcel volumes (compared with 20/21 seems to have accelerated during the quarter after being robust in April. Agree with TexasPete that it is disappointing the Royal Mail business cannot still give guidance for 21/22 - three and a half months in.

Looking for the positives at least there is no comment on staff shortages, high absence rates or a pingdemic - all of which are possible problems RM could face in coming months. UK parcel mix seems positive. GLS seems on track - although y-o-y growth is forecast to decline as comparators get more difficult.

10p div ex next week and 20p div promised for 21/22 should offer support.

It's also unusual to compare Q1 figs to 2020 and 2019, it just gives the impression they're trying to sweeten things up a little.

That said, I'm sure they will recover in the next few days, looking a good buy if it gets near that 5 quid level.

Good luck everyone, Sid.

I would expect a trading update at the agm later this month. Every chance that will beat expectations and a chance to give a trading forecast for the year...

Any comments on Citigroup £10 target? Methinks a tad optimistic!

On the up then Profits being taken again. Will this ever go above 600?

[charlie9038] 23/6/2021 15:03

Frustatingly looks like downward trend atm.

[sig1978] 23/6/2021 08:32

Hopefully will break 600 soon

To help importers and customs authorities cope with the ballooning volume of low-value consignments.....

Low Value Consignment Relief or LVCR ends... 20% WAT on ecommerce

This will put a damper on ecommerce volumes across EU (from July 1st) and UK (from January 1st) sales of "low value " items.
Should help the high street.

Credit Suisse playing catch up. Upgrading price from 280p to 647!!

[charlie9038] 14/6/2021 08:54

Struggling to stay above 600p, need some good news.

[moorsie2] 11/6/2021 13:22

It is an artificial limit....

Q1 update will be interesting in 5 weeks

Yeah I also have been in since IPO and haven't sold a share only added at different times. Your probably right but I would add I do think this share has £8.00 written over it. We may have to wait a bit but it will happen

[borojim57] 08/6/2021 15:49

I've held since day one and they've never been £8,I dont ever recall them been higher than £6.13, I did plan to sell at 6.50 but they never reached my target,hopefully theyll reach £8 this year

[leadersoffice] 08/6/2021 12:51

I was looking back as I thought it got as high as £8 once?? I can't find early data back to 2014, 15, 16

[borojim57] 07/6/2021 15:51

Think it's been no higher than £6.13
