nice double bottom formation for those into that kind of thing ?

[asturius101] 05/4/2018 13:16

looking like this will test 1140 again soon

Indeed, Active. Share buy-back in operation at prices under 1300p. Divi circa 5.5% at this level. Potential takeover target. Hugely oversold.

Looks very interesting here.

[woodhawk] 04/4/2018 15:25

Yes, I am Active. A recent buyer.

It feels very odd, a company that Sorrell personally built up from almost nothing investigating for wrongdoing.
Bizarre.

Hope Sorrell is not short.
That would be bad form.

[asturius101] 04/4/2018 14:22

Yes, it does seem very odd. It would be interesting to find out short positions taken out within the last few days...

Are you in here?

[woodhawk] 04/4/2018 13:17

The Sorrell business sounds utterly contrived.

fortune favours the brave

Any excuse to knock the so down you should know what the MMS are like by now ,not complaining got a tranch at fantastic price

[notimpressed] 04/4/2018 08:35

from the press brief
"The allegations do not involve amounts which are material to WPP."

[grahamite2] 04/4/2018 08:34

Maybe so - a couple of weeks ago I was the one talking about the traditional strategy of waiting for a decisive upturn. But this smear rather looks like someone looking to build a stake on the cheap.

[bookbroker] 04/4/2018 08:24

Only with gloves on!

[grahamite2] 04/4/2018 08:22

I'm wondering if this might actually be the time to catch the falling knife.

[mister md] 04/4/2018 08:01

did he pinch some post-it notes & paperclips ?

[grahamite2] 04/4/2018 08:00

The idea someone with his sort of pay packet would feel the need to dip into petty cash seems pretty bloody ridiculous.

Advertising is obviously changing rapidly with the rise of social media, google etc. Has WPP addressed this is the question to ask ?

[bookbroker] 04/4/2018 07:51

The share price fall could get ugly from here on, looks good value, but is there a trap door that is going to open, think Sorrrell era may be over, but then the market may cheer! Certainly built this from scratch, extraordinary achievement, new media making the disparate make-up of WPP difficult to manage, and those intangibles colossal should they need to write-down assets!

[amt] 04/4/2018 07:35

News of investigation on the BBC news this morning. Strange how once bad news starts it comes in waves. A pe of 8 might seem low but will not be if profits fall.

[asturius101] 03/4/2018 11:50

blue by close imho

[notimpressed] 29/3/2018 16:41

well thats gkn sorted, just need a bid for wpp now, preferably
around the 1800p mark

[fuji99] 29/3/2018 10:12

A PE ratio of less than 7.8 is quiet compelling.
This is definitely oversold. Should go back at least to £12.
