How do you get to pe of 22 when eps this year is likely to be well over 30p ? (16.9p statutory at half year)

Mondi is a far, far better investment. This dog is on a pe of what 22?Mondi only 11.

The usual response to the CEO's trading statement , always ebullient, always , the same response. Another terminal investment

Q3 trading statement scheduled for 9/3/23.

The CEO is always ebullient , no matter what ! After 8 years, the absence of a bid, this a terminal stock

[buyzantium] 02/3/2023 09:22

Trading statement next week?

[southwinds] 23/2/2023 10:06

DS Smith are now lower than 8 years ago and the dividend hardly compensates for the dire performance--

Read across here today from Mondi regarding "softer demand and pricing" in the outlook. Chart not looking great either.

[scepticalinvestor] 22/2/2023 08:17

Mondi a far far better choice than this. Better metrics all around

I've topped up again.

Trading update by DS Smith is scheduled for early March. Will await that with interest to see how it conflicts with that of the Merrill Lynch analyst. Certainly not selling at this stage and very tempted to buy further at these levels.

Buy to neutral recommendation by an American Bank and a FTSE 100 company loses 5% of it's value. You would have thought that they had said sell.

Thank you blobby. No thanks to M.L.

Downgrade at Bank of America Merrill Lynch

It's come back up a bit.

[buyzantium] 20/2/2023 11:43

You are right all of my other holdings also show all sells and no buys, but DS Smith is the only one showing a 5% drop for no apparent reason.

[dondee] 20/2/2023 11:38

Seems an extraordinary drop.

[fhmktg] 20/2/2023 11:26

BT has the same showing- no buys
Technical issue?

[buyzantium] 20/2/2023 10:58

Unable to find any news which would explain this sudden share price drop. Any ideas out there.

[dogwalker] 20/2/2023 10:48

No it's a mystery for now.

[buyzantium] 20/2/2023 10:42

Why has the bid and ask price quote remained static at 352.20 and 352.40 albeit the price has dropped. Also not one purchase has been shown as a buy which is strange under the circumstances. Any thoughts out there.
