Centrica any thoughts? (CNA)     

optomistic - 28 Oct 2003 18:20

Any thoughts on the company?

Chart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=CNA&Si
Red line 200 MA

24 Mar 2015 "Deutsche Bank cuts Centrica to 'sell' from 'hold', target cut from 280p to 225p"

yes stockbunny, but hopefully it will track the (upward!!!!) FTSE so we'll have the 25p and regain the uptrend. Even if it doesn't, Although it has just been cut by some broker, it's good value.

(sigh) always the bridesmaid.................

Thanks StarFrog and Choccie!
Bush - the potential payout is tempting, but you need to really be
happy about the idea of holding it afterwards, maybe for a while,
if you are, no problem, if not it needs more thought..

Could it fall back to near the July level when the special divi and share consolidation was announced?

optomistic - 14 Oct 2004 14:18 - 26 of 682

T..O..K if only we knew

The Other Kevin - 14 Oct 2004 14:21 - 27 of 682

If only, indeed. Anyway, watching and waiting. I'd like this in my portfolio but I think it's just a bit too high at present.

stockbunny - 14 Oct 2004 14:23 - 28 of 682

The consolidation is my main concern - at current prices for
arguments sake you would loose a lot of the divi gain
(approx 238p currently - 27.5p total divi due in Nov)
doesn't make the potential gain as attractive as it might be....

bush - 14 Oct 2004 14:27 - 29 of 682

You're right stockbunny, i'm only buying 5000 on cfds, if i've made a mistake i'll cut my losses, but i am looking at a 6 month holding, they are trying their best to support the price, I think i'm ramping, no don't buy this, buy Petroleum Utilities Medical Providence (ticker:PUMP) then invest your profit in Dragon Universal Marketing Products (sorry can't remember the ticker)

optomistic - 14 Oct 2004 14:30 - 30 of 682

Irrelevant now :-)

stockbunny - 14 Oct 2004 14:48 - 31 of 682

I assume the humour comes for free Bush - PUMP and DUMP......
LOL ;>)

Stan - 10 Dec 2004 08:19 - 32 of 682

Poor trading statement shares down as a result -15p. so far.

Possible recovery play here...what do you think?

optomistic - 10 Dec 2004 11:24 - 33 of 682

Recovery plays are always there, but I'm not going back into this one just yet.

bush - 10 Dec 2004 11:38 - 34 of 682

I sold a couple of weeks ago, but have an order on at 230, i need some slow moving stocks!

optomistic - 10 Dec 2004 11:43 - 35 of 682

Hi Bush I've no problem with slow moving stocks,
I'm an expert in that field :-)

Mega Bucks - 10 Dec 2004 11:53 - 36 of 682

me thinks the drop today could have been over done ie lemmings comes to mind!!its a basically sound company and any bad news and people go into panic mode !!!

On the drop today i started buying and this is my opinion only, people could digest the info over the weekend and could come back to the market buying next week !!!

Please note this is only my opinion and i only hold for very short time durations and this will not be held for long...

Mega...

bush - 10 Dec 2004 12:04 - 37 of 682

Opto, I wish all my stocks were slow moving this week, then again, the high when they start going up makes up for the bitter suicidal pain i am currently enduring! at least I have my health...........nurse

optomistic - 10 Dec 2004 12:04 - 38 of 682

Morning Mega B, just in for the bounce, yes could be a good move, but after that my own view is that the stock could be weak for some time, can't see anything to push it higher short term. Good luck next week.

Only thing I've heard reported today has been the company saying
next year revenues will not make forecast targets - don't sound
good... :>(

optomistic - 10 Dec 2004 15:06 - 40 of 682

And from a Bunny with her ear to the ground that could be well worth noting.

stockbunny - 10 Dec 2004 15:26 - 41 of 682

To the ground and under it at times!
