Unfortunately for our experts, the fact that their predictions may be expressed with admirable conviction does not always make them correct.

I believe the time has arrived for our persuasive forecasters to be held to account for some of their more wayward pronouncements – and, with your help, this website provides the opportunity to do just that.

And, to make things interesting, contributors will be entered into a quarterly competition and given the chance to win fine champagne or wine.

The Patient Investor is Likely to be Rewarded

“Jarvis enjoys a leading position in the U.K. rail industry and is well-positioned to benefit from the anticipated increases in rail infrastructure spending.  Furthermore, with a restructured cost base, the potential for rapid earnings recovery is high.  The short term timing of recovery remains uncertain, but the patient investor is likely to be rewarded”.
