08.05.08 Shares in the group were up in morning deals following the results, with Panmure Gordon increasing its price target to 269 pence from 265 pence. The broker said the results were above its expectations, and expected United states weakness was more than covered by strength in Europe. Landsbanki, meanwhile, said that Sage has produced interims which look ahead of the suggested 'in-line' numbers. The broker, which has a 'hold' recommendation on the stock, added that it imagines it will need to nudge earnings up for the group and that the stock will bounce from here

Cover, Bearishbull,

Don't beat yourselves up you are in very good company; Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, Evolution, Seymour Pierce, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, JP Morgan all called it wrong. Pearls before swine......

Merrill Lynch, Panmuir are notable exceptions to the council of dispair.

Well done Cover, just missed the 7.5p rise today, your timing is remarkably poor, it must be a gift. Please give us plenty of warning next time you are looking to buy in.

Cover,

Give us a break and find another share to follow. Your pointless remarks are annoying and not worth a response.

Welcome back cover

I wouldn't worry too much - whichever way sage is going it always seems to end up reverting back to the 225p mentioned in the thread title.
This has happened on at least 20 occassions without fail so you will be pretty unlucky if it does not do succeed again this time.
How long it will take to get back to this level i do not know - as the more recent results are so recent we may have to show a little patience.

Broker comment also hit shares in Sage -- down 3-3/4 pence at 201-1/4 after Morgan Stanley downgraded the group to 'underweight' from 'overweight' and slashed its target to 185 pence from 255.
