Willie, this isn't advice, but given that we only live once (possibly?), would drinking your fine wines ultimately provide more pleasure than keeping them as an investment? :0). Just a thought!

Cheers.

Mouse-these days I`m a bit of a Stock Market fraud in that around 2004 I`d had enough of the endless ebb and flow of the wretched markets. They give it to you.....they give it to you.....just a little bit more.....then "Wammo" they go out of their way to fleece you blind:-)

I took most of me monies off the table and diversified into my existing passion of fine wines. I believe Wines have even out shown gold thanks to the Chinese entering the market in 2005!
However I accept that the BIG monies are still to be made in the equity markets...difficult as they are.
Whilst I believe in " Invest in companies not indices".... following the recent market trashing, I offloaded a long standing holding in West China Cement as a years worth of profits evaporated - 2233-a value investment if ever there was one!

I blame my live feed :-) Remedy- Dispense with the subscription-turn the screen off for two years and come back with a smile on ya face.....any advice...:-)

Cheers Willie. "You would have hated ASOS then?". No. I did consider buying ASOS at 15p, but for whatever reasons I didn't invest. Perhaps the 'value' investor in me made me hesitate.

I do like CUP, and I can see the rationale for an investment, however the 'value' investor in me urges caution, although with no debt and £8.4m cash, in the unlikely event that the forward p/e were to fall then I would re-consider.

CUP will feature on my monitor.

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog. Best of luck as always.

Mouse.

Thanks Mouse-I dont know where CUP`s heading but there is a huge market there. As long as management can manage the overseas expansion and growth, CUP`s performance could gain terrific momentum. I note "India" was not singled out in todays results release, yet I understand they have strong growth there. One thing is clear-the market is there and its growing....we all want LOVE!
Now I`m more of a momentum investor so CUP fits the bill.... and you are value :^) You would have hated ASOS then? I was fortunate that despite an avalanche of early day bulletin negatives regarding ASOS...darn it, I understood ASOS. And as technology changed and streaming images could show catwalk shows and broadband became more main stream, it was obvious that the hopeless High Street was about too receive a damn good kicking!
Keep your eyes on CUP-the rides just starting out.

Some of you will be aware that back in January 2011, I created a blog which describes my stock picking experiences, strategies, opinions, influences, general observations etc gathered over the past 10 years or so.

The blog does appear to have attracted some interest, and can I just thank all those posters who have given it a glance from time to time. Those of you who are not aware of its existence and fancy a quick peek can find it at the following address:-



However, one of the problems that has been encountered with blogspot is the difficulty that posters have had in using it to post a related comment. The purpose of this thread is to address the problem by giving readers the opportunity to comment on the articles here.

The latest article is entitled "The very little research, but are these really hopeless cases? portfolio vs. the FTSE250, which was written last week.

Please feel free to comment on any of the articles should you so wish, and I hope many of you will enjoy reading the blog time to time.

Thank you
Michael.

[malkie] 29/9/2008 21:47

lovely to see you here again - tighter spreads benefit shorters even more!

[fox tail] 29/9/2008 21:17

I've been busy shorting and have been busy generally you know how it is.

[fox tail] 29/9/2008 21:16

It's a bit like running a hardware store and someone comes in and asks for a lawnmower blade for a 1972 something or other, you have one in stock and it's been there for five years. are you going to offer it at a razor sharp just-above-cost price? no you are going to rip them pretty bad and charge £27 when you paid £3 for it.

razor sharp ...get it.

bleet bleet bleet....the spread is killing us....bleet bleet

[malkie] 29/9/2008 21:13

8trader - Jolly Good!

Who ever gave you the idea that regulating Market Makers would solve this problem??

Dominic's Article pretty much sums up the issue in the secondary market.
