What prospects for Costain (COST)
paperbag
- 21 Sep 2004 13:28
Would anyone know why there has been such a large number of shares sold and no buying? Is there something we are not aware of?

So did I, picked some up a couple of days ago....they are not short of work, and have less exposure to the housing market than others !, and the graph shows support around this level, hope it holds for a rise !.

Yes, I hope that the sp does not now pull back to the 20p area once again !.

Another good contract win by Costain,...there are 2 previous sp patterns here: the May and September camel bumps...will this rise become a third ?.....rises up and then down and then another rise (where we are now) possibly !.

rf-------Just read contract news myself, COST seem to be doing quite well atm, the 8th jan update indicates no nasties, so I feel the sp is a tad too low.

The sp should be around the 30p mark...but then again there are plenty more companies that are undervalued...take AFR (on Aim) for instance....sp really beaten low !....for COST some patience will be needed....but a serious rise must be coming !.

18 months ago they traded between 40p-50p range but I believe they were saddled with debt at that time, hence their drop to below 20p.

Bought again this morning but they haven't registered on the live streaming. Final results due 11th March, no nasties according to the february update, co valued @ around 150m, has cash exceeding 100m, record order books of 2b, not exposed to the house market, PE of 6.4 and a dividend to boot. Looking good.

Coming in under everybody's radar this one....as much cash in hand as the market cap !....whilst most similar companies are reporting doom and gloom, little Costain is showing good improvements in performance.

The results looked very solid, I couldn't see any negatives in there, it looks a good buy from here with nice support at 19p which the sp has bounced off three times. Some large sell transactions today which lowered the price.

Struggles to progress further than the 23.5p mark.

It's a classic range bound stock between 19 to 24p and I can't see it changing just yet. Good for trading short term though.

About to break out of the trading range ?, if so : it could jump up a few pennies or so !.

Yes looks that way rf, it's been slow going despite good news and no debt, may have been held back by the dilutive effect of last years rights issue.
