This post may be of interest - its not quite an arbitrageur but might be interesting

rjmahan, my pleasure. Wait and see now. No advice intended etc.

On the SGI thread I followed a link to audioboom, posted by Daviddosh, who host interviews with private investors. They mentioned SGI (negative) but were short term positive about TNG.

A takeover has since gone through at 4p but todays I noticed this bit of arbitrage by ODDO anyone come accross them before?

Worsley Investors PLC notified Spectra Systems (SPSY) on 4 March 2015 that, following the acquisition on 25 February 2015 of 3,000,000 ordinary shares of US$0.01 ("Shares") in Spectra - at 18p -, Worsley Investors Fund's interest in the Shares now amounts to 4,050,000 Shares representing 8.95% of the issued share capital of Spectra.




Three seasoned activist investors, Blake Nixon, Max Lesser and Christopher Mills, have joined forces to launch investment vehicle

Worsley Investors as part of a new venture, Worsley Asset Management. The fund will take strategic holdings in UK small-cap companies that are trading at deep discounts to their latent value.

Hazl, thanks for the Woodford XSG suggestion the chart looks inviting.

My intention here is to identify, follow and track institutional investors who:

* arbitrage between stock market value and a "hard" accounting asset value.

* are known to actively support and influence the board in pursuit of the same goal.

* have seen a discrepancy between an assets value in two different markets.

It's not exact and people like the Slaters and Richard Griffiths use many different strategies of which arbitrage is just one.

RFC news out yesterday perhaps explains Laxey, and previously Damille and Paribas activit investor type interest.

Found this on the BLNX thread
"AndrewBaker 17 Sep'14 - 10:19 - 82882 of 82902 1 0

In an article citing the buy by Griffiths of 3.5% Blinkx stock, this is quoted:

"Blinkx’s balance sheet is in good shape. Half of its £147million market capitalisation is in cash. Griffiths says the company is now strongly profitable and if November’s interims come up to scratch, the stock looks dirt cheap."

I learnt a long time ago that you can't beat the market, and that investors with money who buy big stakes in a business usually know what they are doing. 'Nough said."

What is his plan? A return of capital to Investors, or de-list and asset strip, or is he after someones blood?

Hi mrx9000, thanks for your comment and suggestion.

Marlborough Fund Managers and Hargreave Hale?

From what I can see they are passive investors of other peoples money via "Unit Trusts". Great job for them but as far as I can tell they are not specifically arbitrageurs, activist, or systematic value investors. (Even though there are a number of common holdings).

So my issue is that our interests (i.e. the Private Investor PI and the fund manager) arent aligned. I believe they want to increse funds under management first and take your fees before growing the assets. Perhaps this is too cynical and I would be willing to listen to the counter argument.

PEW Investor day was very good. Surprised by the presence of institutional investors. A testament to James Smith and Claire Longs investment strategy.
