That didn`'t last long.

Investors Chronicle:

As an indicator of the ongoing gloom facing the troubled eurozone, the latest Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), which is based on surveys of thousands of companies across the region, slumped to a nine-month low of 52.3 in September. Such dreary news could prove costly for box maker DS Smith (SMDS), which makes two-thirds of its profits in the eurozone, and Mondi (MNDI), whose packaging business is relying on structural demand in Europe to improve.

DJ Index currently +200pts

Agree loofy.

But those poor german production numbers yesterday and the sinking value of the euro are really shafting us at the moment.

Still holding but not adding yet.

Does not make any sense at at - fill your boots!

[philanderer] 08/10/2014 13:51

Looking like a top call matt. Nothing to stop it going much lower than that the way it`s performing lately . SMDS has all of a sudden become my lowest net worth holding in my portfolio. Awful performance this year.


DS Smith plc (LON:SMDS)‘s stock had its “hold” rating reaffirmed by analysts at Goodbody Stockbrokers Ltd in a research report issued to clients and investors on Wednesday. They currently have a GBX 295p target price on the stock.

Eyeing the 220p measured move here.

------BUT WHY is it coming off ? seems pretty oversold ?

Bought a few more for my pension today. The multiple is very undemanding, yield very respectable and I like companies where there are clear targets which management are looking to hit. Think this is a very good company to buy and forget about

Could try moving to Nexus, but it's all Greek to me ;-)

Thank-you Miranda.
No RNS so I'd have missed it. Undisclosedsum so don't know how significant it is:

Matt, you'll have another 6.8p off the share price first thing tomorrow morning when it goes ex-dividend at 8 am.

[matt123d] 30/9/2014 13:41

Looking for some downside momentum towards the 220p measured move.
