Despite deals with schools, cleaner buses Morocco growth angles and the return of dividends, I am happy to continue ignoring shares in National Express Group

The last time I wrote about National Express Group (NEX) was just over four months ago, when I concluded it was a “continued Avoid for me”. Given that the company’s shares were about 155p then and ended Friday’s trading - even after a couple of days for the stock - at just shy of 143p, my call felt correct. Is it time to change my view now, given I read a couple of weeks ago that Malcolm thinks “The Wheels on this Bus Go Round and Round and Up and Up could Go the Share Price”

The Wheels on this Bus Go Round and Round and Up and Up could Go the Share Price

Hello Share Crazies. Share shifters like us might consider going on the bus – National Express (NEX) shares have taken a bit of knock and are now cheap in my humble view. Just look at the mess the railways are in, then consider how this helps bus travel seem more attractive. And rail fares here also seem pretty high.

National Express May Drive a Coach and Horses Through the Notion that All Shares are Heading South

Hello Share Scoffers. Back in the day, I used coaches a lot whereas my journalistic colleagues always chose the train. I find buses more comfortable and cheaper, if somewhat slower than rail travel. And I think that big coach operator National Express (NEX) still has a lot going for it.

I looked up 2 boroughs in London and the numbers are absolutely terrifyingIn Ealing, which I would not associate with vast numbers claiming benefits, it is > £1.1bn. Flippin' heck! Maybe most of the claimants live near LHR, like Southall and Hanwell?Where I live, in Camden, it is paying out ‘only’ £657m!This is nuts!

If the defendant paid a large chunk of the money owned, could that explain the auction being revoked?

Ouch! The best case scenario is that the enforcement can continue but only if QBT file an entirely new or fundamentally altered claim; all of which would extend the process by many months.
