Xps Pensions Share Discussion Threads

True port side. A few dips this week, but see XPS rising to around 128-132p price by ex divi date of 29 August. Then slow and steady to 142 by December time. A well run company and slowly getting over the acquisitions and mergers/ new business from majors like Kier, so should see 165 -175 levels again by April 2020. A steady share to have in your long term portfolio.

have bought today looks a good run company

[97peter] 22/7/2019 19:05:58

Onwards and upwards if the buys adds in and we see the share price go over 135 before divi payment?

[rocketblast] 19/7/2019 16:21:27

Looks like a steady recovery which is the best way. Steady Eddy going up and Div will provide fuel for a blast off..

[97peter] 18/7/2019 18:01:43

The share price is starting its slow rise to 140p again, but should get here before divi payout?

[97peter] 10/7/2019 18:48:44

Hi, why no BB chat? At 110p and divi in August why all the glum faces and lack of good buys as a brilliant board and organisation!!

[97peter] 08/7/2019 19:49:06

Now at 11, plus a dividend date in August of 4.3p. So I see this share rising steady back to 160p by October / November.

[97peter] 05/7/2019 10:39:14

Hi all,
I got out 7 days before drop, but now back in at 98p from a few days ago, it was purely I needed to release some cash and move figures around. I have no idea why the share price dropped like a brick? Then is now recovering, panic maybe? I see no reason why this should not be over 200p by December and my 98p in and 202p out in Jan 19, is looking good. The drop could be about the news of the merger and profits not what expected, plus extra costs, but XPS has good Mgmt and Board.!! I’m back, plus have been on holiday.

More director buying at 106p this time CEO

Overhang cleared yesterday at 100p level

Going to bounce to 120-130p methinks

[halfpenny] 03/7/2019 11:00:16

Those stalling will miss out. I see 1:40 soon. Keep on smiling a solid company for the near term and future dividends. XPS can move rapidly once US market opens before holiday as they dont want to miss out...

[lord mandelbaum] 03/7/2019 09:47:41

Very encouraging volume. Xd is not until 29/8 so interesting to see what happens next. No resistance till 135 so let's see if a nice following wind can gently waft us up.

[halfpenny] 28/6/2019 11:33:09

Looking great at these prices and long term hold with plenty of dividends and potential of huge capital growth at a steady rate. £1.40 on the way soon

[apfindley] 27/6/2019 17:00:51

Looking at the fall its tempting to climb on for a rebound.However, I'll do the same as others and put it on watch for now.looking at the rns today , and without researching the company yet, first impressions are that the rns sounds positive. But for the price to drop so drastically, after already starting a drift before today, it makes you wonder whats being missed by the rest of us, but that investors already aboard are aware of to warrant them to continue selling so heavily at this knockdown price. There's got to be a skeleton somewhere as you dont ditch a stock which yields good dividends for no reason.

[looseleaftea] 27/6/2019 14:36:18

The share price has been very stable all day at 37.5% lower than yesterday. Looks like they've done a 5 shares for 8 consolidation..........

[borg45] 27/6/2019 13:24:09

Massive sells around 100p but the share price remains steady big buyer hoovering up ??

[mdchand] 27/6/2019 12:53:08

Weird price action to be heavily sold off immediately Normally these things drift downwards as II's dont normally all sell immediately. Wonder if we have a large seller in the background who was happy to get out at £1.

[topvest] 27/6/2019 12:32:49

Glad I held off here. It looked and felt like the acquisition hadn’t quite gone as smoothly as expected. I agree that it now looks interesting. It’s on my watch list.

[halfpenny] 27/6/2019 11:07:07

XPS a fantastic opportunity to get these shares which are as Cheap As Chips 🍟 i will have two eggs as well. Got to be £1,40 level. You will see Directors buying as its great value.

[longwell] 27/6/2019 09:50:23

Thats the reason for drop.but looks over done.still growth and in line with forecasts.dividend re invested at this price and then high level growth 2021 and dividend steady will give good capital growth and dividend return.thats why i expect 100% return in 3 years.i have researched and digested results.lon term happy to invest.can see £1.10 back within 3 weeks.dyor but for me will enhance and diversify my portfolio more.

[lord mandelbaum] 27/6/2019 09:46:38

Agree 100% pottsypotts: the costs of swallowing Punter Southall are significant - the rise in admin expenses caught my eye - but surely the share price drop is way overdone and very short-termist

[pottsypotts] 27/6/2019 09:31:23

Running my beady eye over these, cant get my head around such a fall when figures at first glance look ok?
Is this the problem at the end of the report

" The Board expects total revenue growth for the Group of mid-single digit percentage in 2020 with Pensions broadly flat and other divisions showing good year on year growth. Exiting the discounted TSA early and bolstering central functions will benefit the Group operationally but will cause a cGBP2m per annum step up in the cost base. In combination, the change in the mix of business and the one off increase in central costs is expected to temporarily impact the growth in profits for the next twelve months. The Group has traded in line with these expectations in the first two months of this financial year"

[mister md] 27/6/2019 09:21:53

longwell, yes noticed he was the only poster here and on l-s-e, hence bit cautious

Also purchased my first lot here at just under a pound

[longwell] 27/6/2019 09:13:25

97 peter needs to not go quiet but explain his view on todays drop after so many positive posts?

[longwell] 27/6/2019 09:12:03

Massive drop, figures look good.aging population so regulation aside pensions growth industry.
Invested for first time today and will now watch and continue to add under £1.yield will add value and can see 100% profit over 3 years.
