Listen to our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode 'Uncovering opportunities with investment trusts' with The AIC's Richard Stone here.
Yes, got 6000 at 1.60 and then topped up with a further 7000 fairly quicly and later a further 3000 after the first of the recent falls in SP - result average just over 180 (circa) - I am not unduly concerned at present but it doesn't make me confident enough to buy a villa in Spain on the back of it! I think the directors are tied in for a couple of years and they are a pretty canny lot. I think you are right Chan about the panick selling - I'm certainly staying for the ride (& diviends.) Good luck. PS - pretty much the same feeling about TAN but a bit less certain about ITM (but don't have to much in so will stay for the (bumpy) ride.
One of my biggest holdings now & it is hovering a bit below my average price; don't feel uncomfortable, as I believe it will recover better than the markets when the time comes (or is it just another over optimistic view?) A well managed company with plenty of potential. Due to director & institutional holdings there is not too much actrivity/volume. Good luck
Yet more good news - perhaps this will be the year that we see a suitable reflection in the SP: I really can't see why this shouldn't be at least twice the figure! Perhaps we are the ones in a dream land! Best wishes
Hi Chan, continued good news (I think!). Lots about this on ADVFN - do you use it/ find it good. Still here for the longhaul but wouldn't mind it tirning into a shorthaul!! Keep well
Well, that's it then; problem is to find another similar solid company with the same prospects!!
Yes, saw that and haven't quite worked out the significance ; must be just a message, in view of small figures (but at least it appears to be a good one!) Hope all is well in these turbulent times
Hi Chan, a trading update in early December would be good, if it is good! At least it would take some heat out of the ownership issue. Good luck
Another nice one Chan - well done, where do you get it all! Does this mean that a lot of far Eastern Gentlemen will now get on board?
Anyone any idea why?
Chan, Two links: http://www.thestandard.com.hk/news_detail.asp?pp_cat=11&art_id=56080&sid=16079474&con_type=3 and: http://news.independent.co.uk/world/asia/article3115550.ece I would be interested to hear any comments that you have.
Hi Chan, have you seen the posings on advfn bulletin board about the estate? Interesting but shows no sign of an early resolution to the shareholding issue!Do you want a note of the relevant websites it refers to?
Very likely, I would say
We shall see!
Sounds like the offer has gone belly up!!!
No announcements yet!
Very good; I think the comment about advisers is particularly relevant and this has been alluded to here before. Most of the other information/stats are available on the company website &/or alternative technical sources (Chan seems to have all this well sorted out!)However, the summary by the author Ithink is very good and interesting - particularly with regard to the shareholding and future strategy. Very good post - Thank you
