First-class buy

FirstGroup's shares could soon offer a risky buying opportunity to speculative traders
October 10, 2012

FirstGroup has skidded downwards by almost 50 per cent since the start of 2012, but the 185p level could soon act as a crash barrier, says Ragu Dharmaratnam of Baselica.

Over the past decade, the transport operator's price has not experienced a monthly close below that level. Speculative traders could go long, placing a stop-loss around 180p.
