what is holging these back because i no nothing
===============================

Know anything yet TANKER...

Would expect on projections and recent results with a yield of 5+% a Share price of 350+p.

Getting a little fed up, but still waiting.

Looking at 15year charts, overall growth rate about 8%pa + yield.

Ummh.

Just added a few.

Haven't they gone ex-div recently.

Yes. 25th April. That was Finals.

IMS to come on the 11th May.

Interim Management Statement.

Overall, Centrica is trading in line with expectations, with the benefit of higher wholesale gas and power prices upstream broadly offsetting the impact of mild weather in the first quarter on the downstream business. We are beginning to see a contribution from our recent acquisitions, in both UK upstream gas and oil and North America; we are making further progress in delivering our upstream investment programme; and our cost reduction initiatives are successfully driving efficiency savings across the Group

CNA doing well in the midst of the disaster zone!

TANKER seems to have lost interest here, sold out TANKER?

It's been a difficult day in the market today but CNA seems to have held its own in the midst of it all.
Was tempted to add some more at what "could" be a good price, but If it closes above my buy price it will be one of the rarer events.
Anyone else on here weakened and bought today?

I suppose it depends on your view of which way the markets are heading, good luck with whatever you decide.

..Questor share tip: Centrica a buy for income and growth

By Garry White | Telegraph – 8 minutes ago

The last trading update from British Gas owner Centrica (LSE: CNA.L - news) was confident. Questor says buy.

Centrica 315.2p Questor says BUY

The shares were named as a tip of 2012 after slumping last year following a profit warning. The shares have outperformed the wider market, rising 8pc compared with the FTSE 100’s 2pc fall.

Questor expects this outperformance to continue, as price cuts earlier this year appear to have eased the political pressure on the sector. Fears of political interference were a significant part of last year’s 13pc share price fall. Higher wholesale power prices also appear to be making up for the mild winter.

Centrica continues to become more “vertically integrated”. This means it is generating more of the energy it sells itself, which protects its profits from swings in commodity prices.

On Friday, Centrica reached a milestone in its Lincolnshire 270-megawatt offshore windfarm project,

by completing financing of £425m for its construction. Centrica has a 50pc interest in the project, with the rest shared between Siemens (BSE: SIEMENS.BO - news) and Dong Energy (NYSEArca: JJE - news) .

An exploration partnership with Norway’s Statoil (Other OTC: STOHF.PK - news) to look for oil in the UK and Norwegian North Sea has also been extended until June 2013.

After last year’s falls, Centrica shares are yielding a very attractive 5.3pc, rising to 5.7pc. The cash-generative nature of the business means this looks secure and it is covered by earnings 1.7 times.

The valuation is also cheap by historical standards, with the current earnings multiple being 11.747, falling to 10.6.

Centrica’s next update will be its interim results on July 26, and the shares are a buy for both income and growth ahead of those figures

Earlier spike down bounced from 200 day ma.

200ma moving up steadily now and the sp pushing its head that little bit higher today. Hopefully the start of a new uptrend.
...Interim's on the 26th
