Posted at 15/11/2021 10:14 by waldron courtesy ofpartenope 6 Nov '21 - 12:06 - 23 of 25 0 2 0 Since it's the weekend I thought I would post this TED Talk featuring the Shell CEO Ben van Buerden. It features an hysterical, emotional young woman who says that he, van Buerden is one of the most evil men on the planet. It's worth a watch for that and also the American guy, an active investor, who managed to get Exxon to change three of its board using a much smaller stake than Dan Loeb's current position in Shell. This was about two weeks before Loeb made his holding known. |

Posted at 07/6/2011 09:35 by masurenguy The share price has now fallen by 45% from the year high of 214p in February and is also 28% below the price on January 18th when it was recommended by Paul Kavanagh of Killick (see post #3 above) and 19% below the price recommended by Mike Savage at Killick on March 20th (see post #10 above). A significant factor in this fall was the unexpected poor Q1 figures on March 9th (shareprice 196p) which has resulted in a price drop of 40% since then. We seem to be a long way off from the ATH of 375p in September 2007 !We need some guidance on Q2 revenues in order to get some perspective on whether the QI figures were just a blip or whether a negative trend has set in here. Normally we would get Q2 fiures (to May 31) in early July but a Q1 estimate was published in early March this year, which was a month ahead of the formal Q1 figures released on April 6th. They didn't provide any advanced Q1 estimate in the prior year so I guess that they thought it was prudent to do so this year due to the unexpected fall in revenues. If they intend to provide a Q2 estimate then this could come at anytime but otherwise we will have to wait until early next month to see the actual figures. Yesterdays RNS on contract wins was very encouraging but it was not possible to quantify the impact that this might have in the current year. Hopefully they may elaborate on this further when Q2 estimates of actual sales figures are subsequently released. In the meantime the 10p or 5% headline spread here is not very encouraging to personal investors. |

By REBECCA TORR , Posted on ยป Wednesday, May 12, 2010 BAHRAIN and other Gulf countries could soon benefit from a 400 billion euro (BD191.7bn) plan to link their solar plants with Europe through a supergrid. The pan-continental electricity supergrid will be powered by a chain of solar farms in the Arabian Gulf and North Africa. They will be linked to hydro-electric plants in Scandinavia and the European Alps, onshore and offshore wind farms in the Baltic and North Sea, along with marine energy and biomass power facilities. Bahrain announced this month that two hybrid plants were being built to produce renewable energy. The solar and wind energy plants will each cost BD8 million to BD10m and will produce 5MW a year, incurring running costs of BD50m. "The Desertec plan is by a consortium of European governments, non-governmental organisations and industrial corporations," said Middle East Electricity exhibition director Anita Mathews. The aim is to provide 15 per cent or more of Europe and the Middle East's electricity needs with solar power by 2050, she added. A map of Desertec's plan shows a chain of solar power plants throughout the Arabian Gulf linked by the supergrid to the rest of the Middle East and North Africa and into southern Europe. A recent study by PricewaterhouseCoope Germany's Solar Millennium is on track to complete a 150 megawatt solar thermal plant in Egypt this year which is seen as a template for a series of Middle East and North Africa solar farms in the Desertec project. Morocco is also expected to be the site of further pilot schemes - a natural choice as the country is connected to Spain by a sub-sea electricity cable. The Desertec initiative, which includes Munich Re, E.ON, Siemens and others alongside the non-profit Desertec Foundation, was established in Germany last year. "Within six hours, deserts receive more energy from the sun than humankind consumes within a year," said foundation supervisory board chairman Dr Gerhard Knies. The initiative has given itself three years to set up a policy framework within the European Union and the Middle East and Northern Africa to adequately fund and transport renewable energy from the desert to Europe. Ms Mathews said the biggest challenge would be to secure the subsidies that would be necessary to allow renewable energy to become cost-competitive to fossil fuels. The sheer scale of the Desertec plan illustrates that the world is waking up to the fact that the Middle East has the potential to become one of the foremost producers of renewable energy, she added. "The task is already underway with Abu Dhabi being home to the Masdar project - the world's first carbon neutral city - and the headquarters of the International Renewable Energy Agency, which is considering projects to produce solar and wind energy in the UAE and the rest of the Gulf," said Ms Mathews. "Saudi Arabia is also planning to become a solar energy exporter and is building its first solar-powered desalination plant. "Qatar is in serious talks with investors to build a $1bn (BD3.77m) solar power project. "Solar projects are also at various stages of planning and implementation in Oman, Kuwait, Syria, Jordan, Iran and Iraq. "But for Middle East countries, to be part of the ambitious plans to export solar produced electricity to Europe, they will first need to show they can share it among themselves with further development of the GCC grid and links to neighbouring Arab countries. Revenue "One day, however, the sun may not only power the industries and buildings of the Middle East but also Europe, providing a new revenue stream and cutting back on the use of costly fuel oil, diesel and gas." Middle East Electricity is recognised as the region's international meeting place for the power industry with this year's show in February featuring almost 1,000 exhibitors with an attendance of 49,000 visitors from 105 countries, the organisers said. The region's largest trade show for the power and energy sector is now in its 36th year. The main focuses of Middle East Electricity include power generation, transmission and distribution; commercial, industrial and residential lighting; water; as well as new, renewable and nuclear energy. More than 60pc of exhibition space has already been sold for next year's event from February 8 to 10 at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre. becky@gdn.com.bh |
Posted at 09/3/2010 08:42 by sandbank The short answer is that I sort of drifted into it because I was too idle to get a job after losing the one I had had for twenty years. They had to pay me off to go quietly, so I paid off the mortgage and decided to take the summer off. By 9:30 the next morning I was bored, so I started playing with my portfolio. I went to one job interview. It was to be Director of something-or-other at somewhere-or-other and was offering a six figure salary. The interviewer asked "where do you see yourself in 5 years" and I remember thinking "not answering stupid questions like that". I just continued playing around with my portfolio over the summer and then I went on holiday to South Africa. When I came back, and 4 months after losing job, I announced to anyone who would listen that I was going to trade full time.How much prep? None as such but I had already been buying and selling shares for a good 15 years as a sort of buy and hold investor. Also, I was already posting here and I knew that mtg, black and a chap called samg were all making money in the markets. And then there was Lord Naked, who made it all look rather easy. All I had to do then was harness their collective talents and morph from investor to trader. It never occured to me that I could fail. I asked a lot of questions and I got a lot of answers. I went to a lot of free seminars and I asked a lot of questions. Slowly I started to tick boxes. Can do that (shares), can't do that (forex). Like that (rsi), hate that (elliot wave). It was all done at break-neck speed and much of it was written up on here. I set some basic rules. I wasn't to lose any capital (after the first three months) and I had to be in the top quartile of fund managers. Those two rules were to keep me and my capital safe in case I turned out to be no good at it but as I have already said, the thought of failure never really crossed my mind. I decided not to set performance targets. In my opinion performance targets just set one up to fail. Seems more postive to rejoice in what was has made than wallow in what one hasn't made! That said, I broadly knew how much money I needed to make and I knew how much money I wanted to make, so I just got on with making that. I'm having a wonderful journey and have made some wonderful new friends both here and through my various networking efforts. Nothing would entice me back to a 9-5. I hope that goes some way to answering your questions. |
Posted at 30/6/2009 08:50 by sandbank Taken from another BB(John Turnbull):SIMON DIXON - BENEDIX TRAINING - former Marketmaker. MANIPULATION BY MARKET MAKERS [Dixon seems an ordinary 26-yr old, without any attempt at "persona", which many of the speakers portray. I've never heard a MM speak before. (I've suggested that one speak to MI.) He seemed to me to just talk straight and his couple of speeches were enough to justify the whole awkward trip to IX. .... He is also a broker, fsa-regulated and an ifa, mentor, independent trader and works in corporate finance. ] .... Do not mix investing with trading. Do not mix fundamentals with technicals. Be one or the other and do not mix or you will be confused. ... By all means invest in AIM, but do not daytrade AIM nor use TA on it, as it is manipulated by MMs. Note that MMs can manipulate ONLY WHERE THERE IS LOW VOLUME but they cannot do so where there is large volume, or else they risk being caught on the wrong side of the market. Typically they may have a big institutional buy order to fill, where there are few shares available for purchase, so they try to manipulate prices down in order to fill it at the expense of smaller players. The impetus here is to fill the order at the best price in order to generate repeat business from that institution. (The institution, of course, unlike the rest of us, pays no spread!) ... MMs are very crafty and familiarise themselves in detail with what is being taught in books and seminars, particularly on TA. ... The low volume on AIM is particular favourable to MM manipulation. AIM should therefore be for investing, not for trading. A typical MM day starts at 7am reading the tips in the press and subscription services. One person does this and briefs the rest. Investors Chronicle does not carry as much weight as it used to, but EK is known to have a very large following. These tips are the focus for the day, as many people try to stag these tips. At 8am MMs attempt to suck in buyers by gapping up the stock and creating a false trend. They then attempt to take out the stops which those buyers (and any preceding buyers) have set. At 9am attention turns to institutional orders from the "Sales Trader." The MM seeks to manipulate prices during the morning to find stock to fill those orders, typically by creating false trends. At noon there is the "Lunchtime boredom". It goes quiet, as judged by the ringing of the phone. Those in the office try to move their dead stocks, to try to create a trend so TA-based traders get sucked in. At this time, even one small buyer of £1,000 shares can send the market wild. The main MMs are out at liquid lunch, schmoozing brokers to put business their way. At 2pm they return in spirited mood and move prices aggressively, culminating in a rush at 4pm to outdo each other to fill the remainder of the institutional orders. As market closes, the price returns to an equilibrium price. At 5pm the institutional orders are placed on a time&sales screen and on L2 you can see what they have done, GSCO, LEHM, etc. Follow these players and do not go against them. If you are going to go against anyone, go against the retail trader |
Posted at 29/8/2008 07:37 by sandbank ow what? Technically, the global market drop since November qualifies as a bear market - down over 20%. I don't see a meaningful difference between down 19% and down 22% - but technically, this qualifies.And yet, I've wrongly remained upbeat throughout. Since my long career began, I've anticipated the last three bear markets: 1987, 1990, and the long bear beginning in 2000. (My bear market calls are documented in my Forbes columns - 5 October 1987, 14 May 1999, and 6 March 2000.) This is the first I've missed. That doesn't lessen my disappointment. Still, I remain confused. In over 36 years of investing professionally, I've never seen anything like this. Crashes, bears, bulls, corrections, and bubbles? Sure. Irrational euphoria? Definitely. I saw that easily in 2000. Yet this - folk are persistently, irrationally morose - is new to me. Investors, market pros, and journalists - all doggedly dour and dire. The bull market didn't peak until last November and by then folks were already pessimistic. For most of 2007 and ever since the same old scare stories replay endlessly. Mortgages, financial meltdown, housing, autos. Over and over again. Not normal. Usually, a sensational story causes a stir, then quickly loses power to sink shares. It gets replaced by the next and different sensational story. In investing, old news is no news. Yet, today it's basically the same stories as 19 months ago, recycled. There's little new! Fact is, the world's in better shape than imagined and that's likely to continue. Folk think we're in recession. We're not! UK Q2 GDP just got revised down slightly to flat, but the UK is just 5% of the world economy. In America, recession has been long heralded, yet GDP growth actually accelerated the last two quarters - Q2 was a far better-than-expected 1.9% - and with inventories down far more than expected. Not blistering, but not recessionary. But even the US is too small - just 26% - what matters most is the world, and the world continues to grow. IMF projects 2008 world growth to be 4.1% this year, thanks to brisk emerging markets growth. Slower global growth We are in slower global growth mode. We have big pockets of strength and ones of weakness - everyone just fixates on the negatives, ignores the positives. Outside Financials, global earnings have beaten expectations. Stocks remain exceedingly cheap compared to bonds - even more so globally than in America or Britain - no-one notices! Globally, cash-based mergers continue near record pace - wouldn't happen in a real credit crisis. Cash-based transactions reduce stock supply. Add an IPO dearth, and stock supply is constricted globally. (Econ 101: Constricted supply leads to higher prices eventually.) Large firms are awash in cash. Consumers keep spending, despite headlines proclaiming their death. There are weak areas - always are - but these real positives are simply ignored. Folk will bicker with me (always do) - but I still see this as a long, big correction. Technically, I'm wrong. Doesn't much matter - all that matters is what you do now. Volatility-weary folk want to bail on shares. Wrong move. Too late! Of the 10 bear markets since World War II, six dropped less than 30%. We're almost there! This is no replay of 2000-2002, 1973-1974, or 1968-1970. Those also had big global recessions - today, the world continues to grow. This is the recession-less bear. Seems likely we're most of the way through - whether you think this is a massive correction or a smaller bear. When either ends, the initial share surge is fast and furious. Get out now, you risk missing it. You'll be whipsawed - in for the decline and out for the reward. Think you feel bad now? You'll feel much worse then. Patience pays. And so should these market-leading shares in the next 12 to 24 months: Anglo American (AAL), an international, UK-listed mining giant run by the able Cynthia Carroll has 40% of the world's platinum market. It also produces iron ore, nonferrous base metals like nickel and zinc, industrial minerals like lime and also coal and diamonds. Unless there's a big, global recession, the firm will earn more than $2.60 a share this year, and the share, at 10 times that sum, is a rare, cheap, quality buy. Oil's fallen lately, but I believe long-term, energy prices should trend up. Italy's giant Eni, is well positioned with massive reserves and broad diversification within the energy field. At less than eight times 2008 earnings and with a 6% dividend yield, this share allows investors to be patient. Dutch firm CNH Global (CNH), listed in New York, makes farm equipment like tractors, balers and combines, as well as light-construction equipment like forklifts, backhoes and mini-excavators. In the latter category, strength overseas more than makes up for US housing weakness. CNH's brands include Case, New Holland, Kobelco and Steyr. It's cheap at 50% of annual revenue and nine times my estimate of 2008 earnings, which will be up. Ken Fisher is founder and CEO of Fisher Investments. |
Posted at 02/7/2008 16:35 by sandbank Well this week the market has been like walking through some godforsaken outer-London housing estate after dark and being mugged at knife-point every 100 yards or so. Correction - make that 50 yards. It's now so routine the brokers don't need actually to demand anything, or display the implied knife. By now we all know the form. We just automatically hand over our wallet for them to take what they want. It's like it's almost bad-manners not to do the honourable thing, surrender and pay up ...And we then say "Thanks" when they let us walk away with our ribs still reasonably intact, our heads not bearing too many shoe-imprints and with not too much blood leeching from our embattled bodies. One day we private investors will get our own back on the MMs - or so I'd like to think.But it won't be this week - or this year. |
Posted at 02/4/2008 12:34 by seanmiller RNS Number:3819RSandvine Corporation 02 April 2008 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SANDVINE AND NORTEL DEMONSTRATE APPLICATION-BASED QOS IN WIMAX NETWORKS AT CTIA WIRELESS 2008 CTIA Wireless - Las Vegas, NV; April 2, 2008 - Sandvine, (TSX:SVC; AIM:SAND) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions for DSL, cable, FTTx, fixed wireless and mobile operators, today announced a joint demonstration with Nortel at the CTIA Wireless show in Las Vegas.
