Johnston Press Plc (JPR)
April 2nd, 2008Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Newspaper circulations plummeting! Free-to-access media dominating market!
It doesn’t seem to make sense - aggregate circulation falling, cost of newsprint soaring yet profits healthy and steady.
Mystery surrounds the reason behind the collapsing share price, then. Is the whole regional newspaper business a dog? Or good value?

The old cliché has it that as far as the stockmarket is concerned one should go away in May and come back again on St Leger Day. What? And miss out on all the fun? Reeling retailers. Broken banks. Crunching credit. There’s so much more than mere capital accumulation, yield and dividend. Not only are there bargains out there but also more than the odd laugh.
