i dont mind small risks rob, i now have just over a £100 in it, so no problems at all either way it goes.

[robandkerry] 21/2/2011 09:57

I would say its a calculated risk rather than a gamble, but dont put your house on it. :)

I have a really good one coming up, so save some money for that Alby.

[alby220] 21/2/2011 09:35

Happy with a small gamble with that one Rob, thank you again!!

Correct Charlock.

Ticker ADI is listed today on m.o.n.e.y.a.m...

[robandkerry] 21/2/2011 09:31

No problem Alby. Directors have been buying at 2p. They also have options at 5p, on condition that the price goes to 7.5p. Results are out next month and we should see a marked improvement in the business imo, but DYOR as always.

[alby220] 21/2/2011 09:06

Thank you Rob !!

[robandkerry] 21/2/2011 09:00

Got another tip if anyone is interested. Plus Markets. Ticker PMK. 2 million buy this morning. Looks to have good support at around 2p. Should be good for a double money play at least. DYOR.

[the_doctor] 21/2/2011 08:35

cube - you seem to go on about this. Can you tell me where it ever said they'd change the ticker to ADI by now?
As you know full well, RGT.L is the ADI business
Anyone stupid enough to buy shares without checking news in the last few months shouldnt be investing!

[muxdapanza] 21/2/2011 08:33

TD Waterhouse have the Alexander David Investments with the correct shares in issue still trading under the epic of RGT.

So if I trade those they will be ADI not Regen.

[cube boss] 21/2/2011 08:31

You can still buy RGT online! ADI does not seem to be around..:0))

the-doctor, if you look at the link above, that tells you what ADI are going to be investing in, basically they will take part in placings and once they get a certain percentage gain they will cash in and move on to the next one, could be very rewarding!.

I agree with your post SS. ADI represents the best opportunity for RGTers to get back some of their losses. The shrewd people were selling on Friday, as they know they will be able to buy these back for a lot cheaper next week imo.

Something to bear in mind/ This article is todays date.


ial report from James Faulkner of WatsHot.com

Expert tipster James Faulkner provides two new tips a month and regular updates on specialist small caps site WatsHot.com. Although past performance is no guarantee of future success, and some tips have gone down in value, the average gain per tip as at 31st December 2010 across the 23 stocks tipped last year was 73.28%. To get more top tips like this, join WatsHot.com now.

In this special report, James considers the recent performance of healthcare stocks and picks out those likely to perform best this year. To read more insightful analysis like this from James in his daily column and get two brand new tips each month, join WatsHot.com now.

Healthcare is a sector that you can count on for solid growth for many years to come. Crucially, the growth drivers are structural. In the West we face the twin problems of an ageing population coupled with an increasing tendency towards obesity among younger people, both of which point to a steeply rising healthcare bill in the future. In the emerging economies, it is increasing affluence which is driving demand. Both arenas offer exciting growth potential for companies that are dynamic enough to take advantage of the opportunities.

Investors should be aware that the sector is currently undergoing a huge transformation. The major pharmaceuticals and biotech companies are having a tough time getting over a patent cliff estimated to be worth a staggering $200 billion between 2008-12. This coincides with a period where competition from generic drug companies is increasing, whilst pricing pressure from governments and the private sector is becoming much more pronounced and will continue to do so as austerity-led reforms aim to drive down the cost of healthcare. All this has led to a dramatic decrease in the number of new patented drugs being developed as R&D budgets amongst the majors are slashed. This is throwing up some great opportunities for smaller companies which are developing their own compounds or offer R&D services which can help drive down costs through outsourcing. The other side to this is that some of the larger companies will simply have to grow by acquisition, and there are rich pickings among a small cap healthcare sector which has long been unloved by investors. What follows is my assessment of what I believe to be some of the best buying opportunities in the sector.

I can easily understand gf's decision to immediately sell his listed ADI shares. Raising cash from this " free gift" to former RGT Plc holders is hard to resist but, personally, I'm in two minds. There are indeed some reasons why this may look a good idea but there are also some striking reasons why it could be worth holding on.

On the one hand, there is an immediate NAV gap but, on the other there is a raft of recent evidence that this sort of company can be worth much more than its NAV. It would only take ADI to now either reverse into an exciting asset; or make a series of strategic resource investments in exciting projects via IPO or placing or whatever; or the arrival of someone with strong resource sector credentials, either on the board as as a consultant, to make a serious positive impact. I would point to the recent examples of Tom Cross (PMG) or John McKeon (NGP; PFP; PMA; CSB). The charts there clearly demonstrate the immediate uplift that "hope value" can bring.

I note also that people willingly stumped up £1.5m @ 0.5p (the current bid price) well ahead of the demerger here and, importantly, just for a stake in ADI i.e. no equal holding in RGT Ltd. It's hard to believe that they did this without having been told of the plan and without a good prospect of seeing good early returns or appreciation. Well, I've got exactly the same as they've got but without parting with a single penny. So, much as I am excited by the new prospects for RGT Ltd, I'm also thinking there could be some value, even excitement, holding on to ADI. I'm finely balanced but resource plays have a certain attraction so I'm leaning strongly towards holding on. Either way, it'll be fascinating to see what unfolds there.

INMHO. DYOR.
