TLS - Telstra Corporation

[kr1zh]

I tell you something, Telstra's WCDMA 2100 services joined with Hutchinson will soon be available in country such as Wollongong..

Where Telstra will be heading for the wireless mobile technology? Finger crossed to have 3G WCDMA 850 to the country as well.

850 will be cost effective and high return. Let's see guys, the time will come..

T.A. tells me that TLS is weak, looks like it's going to test the all-time lows again. but could rebound from here. I bought some in anticipation of a bounce but have the sell trigger ready, the risk-reward ratio looks favourable - a close below $3.60 will be my unhappy exit.

Alan Kohler interviewed three execs from Telstra on the weekend . Was all mumbo jumbo that was reported already... Nothing groundbreaking.

But it did sound good.

Could be good for long term investors. Nothing too exciting for short term traders.

This company seems so undervalued. This company is a fine example of what market sentiments can do to people. The company thrives like mad but the market just keeps selling and selling. Its had a pretty bad stock price history so no one is game enough to lock their money in this stock. Everyone is unhappy with this stock. Their a 22 billion dollar company, but thier able to make 8 billion dollars a year in free cash from operations. No wonder they give just good dividends.

But then again who noes, maybe the likes of Engin will take over the use of phone lines and thats that for telstra. But then again even after that you still need cable, and who has that yes telstra. haha

No point in talking up this company, the only thing that is keeping it share price of falling further is its high yield. I have seen few European telco going through this phase in Europe and none of them have gone through without big dommage.
Why then the government is trying to sell its big share if TLS was such a good buy

Chennylee, their dividends come from borrowings not profit so in the long term it is unsustainable. This was widely publicised around the same time as the last dividend payout.

 

[utedog]

with TLS dividend payouts over the last few years, you need to distinguish between the special dividend it pays and the regular dividend (28c pa). As far as I recall, only the special dividend has been paid from borrowings. However, this special dividend is more than likely to be scrapped. I hold a large share in TLS and I will be holding on to it. There may be difficult times ahead, but IMO the share price has seen bottom. Even without the special dividend, TLS still pays an excellent dividend and IMO the share price now holds minimal downward risk.

Yogi tipped a significant negative cycle on 4 Aug, but the sp looks to be recovering a little to me. Could it in fact be heading back above $4.00? Breaking through $3.90 was important.

Where is the love in this share? Why is dangling at $3.50>$3.51????? surely not because of the 'divi' any other share that would perform like TLS ,would have been a candidate for the butchers mincer.

Yogi was right.

Just when will this be a bargain??

Will be a big tax rightoff for me this FY!

Telstra sale - Whos buying?

Just had a read of this tonight .

The company says this is good news but I'm not so sure . The price is already depressed how will dumping alot of shares on th market help .

Are they still looking for a corner stone investor ?
And looking to off load in sept. or october . Not the greatest months either in the share calender
Would those Mums and dads still be willing to invest after seing there own shares drop so Much ?
Just after some feed back
Cheers Martin

Re: Telstra sale - Whos buying?

I can't see how selling the $8bill really achieves anything.

The conflict of interest they've admitted to will still exist as the balance will be held by the future fund.
Much of the overhang will still exist as they're only selling a portion.

I don't know if its true or not, but I've heard payments will be in installments (now and in 18 months) and punters will be entitled to the full dividend. It makes an already high yielding stock an interesting yield play.

As still a holder from T1 & T2 days, as soon as it hits $4 again, if it ever does, I'm out of TLS. They are only guaranteeing 12 more months of dividends then they'll chop it.

The Chairman says no more whingeing about the ACCC, but has he got Burgess onside? Big mistake getting expats who no nothing about Aus business to run the company.

What you heard is correct, doctorj. Yes to installments and yes to the full dividend. I guess they had to provide some incentive. I won't exactly be champing at the bit to buy any!

if they chop dividend, its hardly worth anything, imo the only thing holding them up is the franked dividend

thx
