Another awful week -6%

[philanderer] 19/10/2018 13:44

Chart support looks like 1510p then down to 1470p

[bouleversee] 19/10/2018 13:03

Just noticed my typo: I should have said with a target of around 2400p. Must check on the shorting situation.

[philanderer] 19/10/2018 11:53

They usually give a 12 month target. But WEIR getting a good kicking today :-(

[bouleversee] 19/10/2018 09:41

Yes, but presumably the Barclays and other analysts are aware of all that but are recommending strong buy at around 2400p so I hadn't expected a further drop today.

China gone wobbly , miners down, copper down. Recession within the next two years.

[bouleversee] 18/10/2018 21:33

Why has it come back so much? Debating whether to risk a top up or not. Just came across a cutting from The Times dated l.3.18 tipping Weir as a buy at £20.36 with a target of £24, since when it has gone in the opposite direction.

Rising Costs Weigh On Permian Gas Production


To be fair, not all shale gas drilling is slowing, but in the Permian Basin, which has seen the most incandescent growth in recent years, according to the Financial Times, growth is slowing markedly, according to Schlumberger, Halliburton and the U.K.’s Weir Group – all majors suppliers to, or active players in, the fracking industry.

Deutsche Bank reiterating 'buy' this morning ... doesn't look as though anyone's taking any notice of that.


1510p looking to be tested this morning ....and make that -12% in 24 hours

[cc2014] 07/9/2018 08:19

Now below £16 and continuing to look in trouble. I shall have to do some proper research but if this is what the market thinks Weir is worth with the oil price pretty high and a strong dollar I'll remain on the sidelines.

[eodfire] 06/9/2018 18:50

Are you fully invested in interserve on the quiet? :)

[nickg100] 06/9/2018 18:11

I'd take £20 for cash lol - Where does Weir go from here & what needs to happen (or stop happening!!) for a recovery?

Brokers seem to be full off the usual BS. Promotion to the FTSE100 looks a tad unlikely?? Bought into these on growth and a seemingly relentless stream of bullish statements - Professional and PI's alike. Frustrating to see! Sitting duck for the shorters!
