Managemenent has spent time putting the house in order and they are now a growth business again, adding bolt on's when appropriate. The share price can be volatile, but long term going in the right direction.

net, I mentioned on the SHA board last year that S4 arguably looked a dangerously
rated hype train - their market cap a little different now !.

Like WPP a lot, although it usually gets hit during risk off days or weeks.
Very much risk on over the past few sessions.

s4 capital is really struggling.
Sorrell's dream of revenge is fading.

WPP has very significant 2-3 year upside - unless we are facing something
such as the Russian war spreading to other countries.

The remaining 40% stake in Kantar worth at least £3bn,
the recently created PR JV another longer term value creation opportunity.
Transformation continues in the core business.

WPP tends to take a hit on weaker days for the NAS,
so possibly some downside if markets turn south again
before a strong recovery in to the next cycle.

Really rate the CEO. Watched the corporate strategy day presentation
a few years back and they have achieved or exceeded about every goal mentioned.

Sfor issues loads more shares every few months, doesn't pay a dividend and has lost significant cash over the last year. Wpp pays a decent dividend, is buying back shares, and generates plenty of cash.


There's no comparison which is the better investment currently. Could well change but not for a year or 2. Added bonus is no stamp duty buying here either.

[boltonwonderkid] 06/6/2022 11:35

Better buy would SFOR lads and lasses! It way too cheap and already the price is smashed and it's ran by a better CEO too?

Added a small amount this morning however if markets move lower over the next few
weeks would expect this to be available lower down.

A family member works for them and never been busier. Very happy to top up on dips and be here for the long term

[essentialinvestor] 25/2/2022 10:43

Listened to some of yesterday's webcast - longer term outlook here looks
positive, barring a macro hit.
Could be available under £10 if Russia/Ukraine worsens and markets take a hit?.

[essentialinvestor] 24/2/2022 09:08

In for a small amount, been monitoring this for sometime.
May be available lower down?.

DB raises WPP PT to 1,400 (1,000) - Buy

Don’t give up your day job Porshey boy, every stock you have tipped on here has been plummeting since. Christ no bloody wonder you are so angry.

[chesty1] 05/1/2022 11:56

Porsche the market disagrees with you big time!

[porsche1945] 24/12/2021 12:15

From 18.90 Jan 2017 to now this has lost what, 40 pc of its value and pays a shxtty little dividend. Glad I bailed on this and all the other ftse 100 dross and bought the S&P and Nasdaq. dire. Digital advertising, think goog, fb, snap, trade desk, Amzn, are the nails in the coffin for wpp. Terminal. Will be back at 8 quid this time next year.

Your eyesight ain't bad buddy.

[mo123] 03/11/2021 10:16

Bit of weekend reading.

[ygor705] 29/10/2021 12:08

My eyesight is not what it was but I think the share price is just about at a 3 year high. We are certainly back to pre-Covid levels and given that the restructuring started before the crash my simplistic mind is thinking that there ought to be more gas in the tank here. Management have certainly shaken things up but we could do with a bigger dividend.

[hades1] 29/10/2021 09:39

Still believe WPP are undervalued vs their competitors especially Publics listed in Paris.
Omnicom are the weak player at the moment.
IPG doing OK.

[boozey] 28/10/2021 19:57

Good to see such a credible poster as yourself here too Mo! Your posts are full of content both here and Investec. On which subject let's hope Investec's results match those of WPP! Have held both since the bowels of the pandemic.

Analysts at JP Morgan upgrade to 1330, while Citi called it a “blowout” performance and added the trading update should increase the sense that WPP's recovery is "not just cyclical but structural, creating a platform for a rerating".

[riviera1069] 28/10/2021 08:08

We've been saying for 6 months now that this should fly through the 10 quid hurdle. It always falls back.Maybe this time it will hold and continue it's leg up.Great update

super statement, bullish prospects.
