What % of revenue is out of China? The current case might be throwing a shadow with Xu resigning?
Yum, Dyson & Swatch reviewing - may be unrelated, no idea how to check but understandable if some get nervous. Chinese market is important enough to make a difference if headwinds arrive.

"The news of Xu's resignation comes amidst the ongoing bribery case unfolding in Shanghai involving three former GroupM China executive team members. Rycan Di (ex-chief investment officer for GroupM China), Yao Lan (ex-head of digital buying) and Diana Hong (ex-general manager) were all detained by Shanghai's Economic Police Department in October last year on alleged charges of bribery and misconduct, and following a raid at the WPP office in Shanghai.

3rd quarter figures below expectations - unsurprisingly.

Victim of the upcoming recession.
Advertising the first to be hit, shipping rates also.
both collapsing.

Sorrel's new venture SFOR had a share price collapse after its results a short time ago.

As you say, share price cut in half, difficult to make money in the UK market.
Although WPP is an international operation.

Profit, dividends are dirty words.
UK not a free market capitalist country.

[porsche1945] 04/8/2023 08:25

well its another ftse 100 dog thats been cut in half since 2016 so whats the point its capital destructive and in terminal decline….like the uk in general.

[grahamite2] 04/8/2023 07:58

The lack of interest in this on ADVFN is remarkable. Normally that's a good sign but I think that here it might not be.

[ashbox] 24/7/2023 09:26

Poor update from SFOR not helping

[spooky] 21/7/2023 13:03

May be as reaction/downgrade following OMC figures.

[ygor705] 21/7/2023 12:06

Very weak share price of late and with the interims due on the 4th August one wonders whether something negative is on the horizon.

[careful] 23/2/2023 08:50

Great results today.
Share price rise justified.
Much more to come here.

2023 tip in today's Sunday Telegraph James Warrington, media and telecoms correspondent: WPPBosses at WPP probably feel a bit hard done by. Despite robust trading, the advertising giant saw its shares slump by almost 30pc in 2022. Now, digital advertising budgets are already shrinking and a wider recession is looming, with ad spend invariably the first to get cut. Despite all this, there could just be an upside for investors. With a market value of around £9bn – half what it was worth when Sir Martin Sorrell was ousted in 2018 – WPP looks primed for a takeover. If a suitor comes knocking, shareholders will be in line for a healthy windfall. If not, there's probably more pain ahead.Eir Nolsøe, economics correspondent: Enphase EnergyIf there was ever a time to invest in renewables, this is surely it. The energy crunch is forcing European economies and companies to rapidly accelerate investment decisions that would ordinarily have happened over a much longer time span.In every crisis, there are winners and losers. Energy-intensive industries will have to reinvent or risk faltering, while renewables have much to gain from countries scrambling to secure their supply

Will hit £10 with all the revenue that the World Cup will generate

[smurfy2001] 02/9/2022 08:25

I agree and because of that the investment here is no longer compelling

Their net asset value since 2018 has more than halved, thats why share price is where it is, a lot of debt, not great margins ( a third less than publicis ) and buy backs had held it up. I actually think this will re visit covid lows, UK and its index are fxcked anyway, brexit.
