For anyone interested in TA, there are a couple of views provided
on the SHA thread from yesterday - if you are long HLMA you may not want
to look at those views.

[elmfield] 22/9/2011 08:45

as we are now seeing.

View of months ahead:
caveat emptor.
Looks like the real 'fun' is about to start,
MAIN AIM:
Stay alive, warm and fed

Support looks to be around 2.50-2.70 imo.

Agree with that.
The 4 non execs appear to hold only 2,000 shares each.
Caution may pay imv.

[elmfield] 21/8/2011 20:15

mine as well, stay out of this market and hold some cash, At some stage the market will be a buy but in my own view it could be long wait!
Halma and weir group etc could all start to feel a reduction in orders as most of the world squirms under a moutain of debt, Just my own thoughts.

[essentialinvestor] 21/8/2011 12:35

Price looks rich in the context of rapidly falling market PE's.

Would not be suprised if estimates are scaled back making the PE higher
than it appears imo.

High exposure to Europe and the US, both of which look to be grinding
a halt.

Just my view.

[cnx] 21/8/2011 12:24

the shares have been held for 3 years and 11 august is the vesting date. also sold to meet tax needs on the vested shares.
the directors still have large holdings, so i am not too concerned

[essentialinvestor] 18/8/2011 15:35

elmfield, any views on the multiple director selling here and in quanity imv?.

[essentialinvestor] 18/8/2011 14:15

Directors selling.

[elmfield] 04/8/2011 17:37

Not sure where we are going, some have lost a lot of money in second line stocks, this will recover but still not buying anything yet. August bad month the real boys running he funds away on school holidays and MMS can mark down, have to wait and see what the big investors do on return in September.
More important things coming up on the Grouse moors!
LOL!

[elmfield] 12/7/2011 10:47

yes lovely job, having said that happy to lighten and add again if we retreat, I am a bit of a bear as far as the market goes just now, and this will fall a bit with the market; we must be near the to of trading range, still love them though!

[cnx] 12/7/2011 10:10

another nice acquisition

[elmfield] 07/7/2011 16:05

[doobz] 28/6/2011 13:52

[elmfield] 26/6/2011 21:49

[elmfield] 22/6/2011 11:44

Some of the best companies have the least active BBs !


Nothing in today's statement to change my view !

[elmfield] 10/5/2011 09:17
