out of WEB ...

That's what Stephen Daglian said on Commsec's closing wrap last evening.

What I posted was found on Google, wasn't sure that it was an ipo....I thought it was a spinoff from WEB

 

[Dona Ferentes]

it's a Demerger ... WJL is Business to Consumer B2C whereas to new WEB is Business to Business B2B

In its demerger prospectus, Webjet put the fair value for the B2C business at between $1.20 and $1.60 a share, which was higher than Monday’s trading price.

Webjet’s customer-facing business includes its online travel agency (OTA), which holds about 8 per cent of online flight and hotel bookings across Australia and New Zealand, as well as GoSee, a motorhome and car rental group, and the Trip Ninja smart travel technology.

CEO Katrina Barry said softening domestic demand would be offset by more international travel, with Webjet planning to better utilise its database of 6 million customers across Australia and New Zealand to increase overseas flight sales as airfares fall.

The renamed WEB Travel Group (WEB), the B2B business, is less understood; it has become a global wholesaler of hotel rooms to other online travel and corporate travel companies.

Doesn't appear to be be much interest in this stock. However, did anyone notice it was stirring last Friday? I did, but failed to check the announcements, and couldn't work out why or who was buying. Whilst not market sensitive, I think it deserves some thought, gotta to watch it carefully now. Three days in the green, and, we don't know what the big boys plans are. The following can be found in Commsec's announcements:

Too early to laugh, Danny. Start cackling when the stock does a turn around. That's the time to laugh like a hyena.

I'm starting to wonder how much/many legs are left.

I was thinking $1.05 price target doesn't sound very optimistic since it's already $1.01.

I was thinking $1.05 price target doesn't sound very optimistic since it's already $1.01. About 10 investment funds have parked their clients money into this stock and it only just listed last week.

I thought the opposite since I saw the announcements. Thought if the big boys are into it, then, it has room to run. At the same time, was wary and thought they might offload at a good price. Sold some at close to the top (won't be around to watch for the next few days and don't want to take too much risk in case it decides to go downhill)

 

[DannyB0000]

I doubt whether investment funds would have bought into this stock just for short term gain. It was up 19% by the forth day that it last before profit taking. Wait at least 1 year to see what the company's revenue is like before passing judgement on it. Webjet was profitable before the demerger.

I thought that too, @DannyB0000, but I didn't want to say that in case I'm wrong and people think I'm ramping. Good luck if you're in.

nothing goes up in a straight line, what goes up fast can come down just as quick sometimes.

To me its a de-merger which makes absolutely no sense. There was no good reason for it to happen.

Market Matters morning report

Is WEB Travel Group telling us to put travel & tourism in the too-hard basket?

In August, we wrote a report on the travel and tourism names. At the time, we highlighted that US businesses Trip Advisor, Booking Holdings and Airbnb had reported a softening travel outlook; in hindsight, these warnings should have been listened to with the sector struggling over recent weeks. Year-to-date, the ASX200 is up +13.2%, including dividends, with all but one of the travel/tourism stocks underperforming the broader market: Travel & Tourism stocks YTD: SiteMinder (SDR) +30%, Flight Centre (FLT) +5.7%, Helloworld Travel Ltd (HLO) -24%, WEB Travel Group (WEB) -30%, and Corporate Travel (CTD) -36%. New reports show that, after years of inflation and rising travel costs, global travellers may finally be curtailing their travel plans, which is concerning for the industry, e.g. intentions to travel have dropped 11% in France and 6% in Germany since 2022. Research house Morning Consult believes pent-up demand is ending – “That’s not to say that travel will decline significantly again, but … in short, most of those waiting to take their post-COVID trips have already done so,”. This outlook was echoed by a recent report from economic advisory firm Oxford Economics, saying, “Pent-up demand fuelled travel in Asia-Pacific in the first half of 2023, but since then, the trend is starting to reverse.” The appetite for travel is starting to wane due to the delayed effects of tightening monetary policies, which have hit consumers’ free spending. Interestingly, the US-related names have also delivered mixed performances so far in 2024. Of the three mentioned, only online travel business Booking Holdings (BKNG US) is making investors happy, and its business model is AI-focused.
