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?

26p is a resistance line ...I'm still in, if it can break this line I reckon 30p is on the cards....but nothing wrong with taking a profit georgy boy....I'm hoping we won't be going back to 22p again !.

rf---------I believe Panmure Gordon have issued today a sell note and target price below 19p, can't see it myself but.....

aaaaghh !.

Nonsense sell note...really ridiculous...Costain has a heck of lot of cash and is earning big time..might effect the sp for a day but as long as the market doesn't tank this should be good for the upper 20's sooner or later !.

With 100 mill cash and no significant borrowings with a huge forward order book I would say that Costain is more of a hold/buy than a sell.

A sell note - are they on planet earth ?

It might be all doom and gloom at the moment but this little gem is gaining contracts all the time...they will have to be taking on staff to cope with the backlog of work...should be way above 30p this !.

It's up....can it break free of it's shackles ?....stuck in this this 25p-26p range...

Joe Say - 09 Jul 2009 18:43 - 160 of 369

time for another sell recommendation no doubt

look at the market cap compared to the nav that may explain the sp.

Well, I reckon that this is undervalued...don't forget that it gives a dividend....loads of cash in the bank...gaining big contracts all the time....from what I gather precious little debt or none at all...not very much exposure to the housing market, but a lot of good government work coming along...main market...Isable....(I'm starting to sound like a Costain salesman !).

Good rise today....might go as far as the mid thirties.....well worth that !.

On the move again...nice rising graph....excellent upwards trend.

Yes doing nicely, I sold out a couple of months or so ago and bought NGL since sold @ a profit, always thought (still do) they were too low, may get in again at some point. Good luck all holders.
