Posted at 09/10/2010 14:45 by topvest This is a very poor investment trust; unfortunately, I still hold some shares. A couple of pointers as to why it is so poor:- Last year, they purchased £119m of equities and sold £115m for a £5m loss versus net asset value of just £10m and opening gross assets of £15m. - There is no dividend and high debt levels. - The investment management fee was £336k which was up on last year and way too high, particularly as Blue Planet also charge a £100k admin fee. The high transaction levels (10 fold the asset base, meaning they are turning their investments every month) and high costs are sucking this one dry. Very poor, particularly given they made the wrong calls on numerous occasions. They are just a bunch of expensive speculators in my opinion. Best hope is that they make a couple of lucky positive calls and we can ditch-out when times are better, that's if they don't suck this one dry first! |
Posted at 17/10/2008 19:47 by watwungyi it's rare to have a business managed by the owner himself. this is one of them. i am impressed with his assumption on western economy since last year and this stock is worth buying. set up a montly saving plan and just added a bit more in time for dividend. |
Posted at 18/9/2008 18:38 by pawsnjaws Hi I saw Mr your Mr Murray interviewd yesterday on Bloomberg, this is the first time I have been intersted in BPW and it was purely because he talks common sense in a financial world going mad.... The interview re emphasised the points made all along by BP and that they would NOT be investing in any Financial Institutions with the exception of India/Russia for the forseeable future. With my limited knowledge I wondered about investing in a BP fund, but am disappointed at how little information there is. This thread died in July - is this because you all left or just busy elsewhere. |
Posted at 24/7/2008 16:05 by isa23 Hi Carterit, since I did the switch, BLP is up %12 while bpw is down about 10%, so the trading on the basis of discount does make sense after all |
Posted at 22/7/2008 11:21 by carterit I know.Thought about doing the same,but BPW seems to perform the best,and at one stage early last year was at a premium to NAV of about 15%.BPW seems less liquid than BLP,and seems to get the bigger increases - so i'll stick with it and see how we go. |
Posted at 03/12/2007 13:29 by hoggetwood Discount about 30%. Nav seems to have broken out upwards (see trustnet). Seems a good time to get back in. I'd have thought sentiment will at some stage turn, and bpw will start to be regarded as hugely oversold. Not a ramp, but a request for a comment - for example about my naivety. |
Posted at 23/4/2007 19:32 by jhan66 Bought in again, & happy after tonight's nav = 18% discount, the widest I've ever known it on BPW. |
Posted at 02/2/2007 23:53 by carterit The share price of BPW didn't rise above NAV until approx 20/11/06.Since then NAV has risen approx 10% and share price has risen approx 28%,and yet the holdings between BLP and BPW have neve been closer in the 15 mths i've been following them both. BLP NAV has also risen 10% during this period,but its shareprice has only risen 16% approx. |
Posted at 29/1/2007 14:09 by pscambler The NAV on the BLP shares (and I mean diluted NAV) is actually greater than that for BPW, while share price lower. IMO this is a true mismatch.BLP is slightly more geared, but the opposite used to be the case so that's not the explanation. Market Cap approx =. Director share holdings approx = Spread - BPW tends to be a bit lower, but may be a function of turnover Track Record. I think people are looking at the historic NAV and price rises w/o taking into consideration management is same and portfolio is very similar. There is also the historic link to building societies and BLP is 10 diff trusts. If that anomaly were addressed and some lip service paid to d/c reduction BLP would go up (other things being =) For the record, I am short BPW as a hedge against a fall in my BLP warrants Not working so far! Both will get hammered is there is a downturn esp in E Europe. |
Posted at 29/1/2007 13:13 by carterit Crikey - don't people realise that BLP and BPW have virtually the same holdingscurrently,yet BPW is on a 15% premium to NAV,and BLP is on a 10% discount to NAV.Surely BLP is the one to be in currently.There is currently a £1.00 difference in shareprice,when 35p ought to be more like it. Or am i missing something here. |
