A few buddies and i run a modest investment club, and we're thinking about an equally modest (long term) punt with BA, seeing as their shares are now hovering fairly static around or just below the £2 mark (and seeming like good value?).
So we were wondering (not looking for financial advice of course), what you lot, those supposedly in the know at the sharp end, actually think about their mid-long term prospects, in light of the 'Future Size & Structure' announcement.
Would any of you, staff of BA, still be investing in share save schemes, or taking share options over cash with the company?
Also, what milestones or hurdles are there ahead for BA which could make or break (?) the company, could it be ripe for a take over bid at the current share price?
Would seem to me, being simplistsic, that evetually BA will turn the corner, the public will return to travel to high yield destinations as they once did pre 11/9. BA has huge assets and slots at the preferred airports and still a good PR and the low cost-ers (so far) arent a threat on any long haul routes, so the future is bright??
