LSE Market News

I like companies that operate quietly in a well-defined niche, don’t catch a lot of headlines, operate efficiently, provide an important service, fill a vital need, and pay a handsome dividend.  Latchways (LSE:LTC) is that kind of company. The share price of LTC was up by what some would call “a modest 2.41%” today.  But […]

After all the recent fear and uncertainty that markets’ upcoming monthly ‘fixes’ might be reduced due to the dealer restricting supply on improved economic/labour market outlook, the major piece of data used to decide supply (NFP) came in at a level which was OK but neither good enough to intensify fears of restricted supply nor […]

There are two reasons that I don’t usually write about small-cap companies.  The first is that that they don’t typically generate much in the way of big news.  The second is that my boss keeps telling me to follow the Big news.  Well, today I think that FastJet (LSE:FJET), a company with a market cap […]

I’ve been watching ARM Holdings (LSE:ARM) for some time now.  It is a fascinating company on its own merit, regardless of its public status.  It almost defines “leading edge technology,” and it is unique in its offering of proprietary circuit designs without manufacturing the chips themselves.  Its high-performance, power-efficient circuit designs have propelled the company...

Just to be certain, before putting fingers to keyboard for this story, I looked up the word “unstable” in the dictionary.  It defined “unstable” as “not stable.”  I may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but even my cat could have figured that out.  Digging a little deeper, I found the following definition […]

After last week’s QE3 taper tantrum and fall from near all-time highs, the shortened week started on a calmer note with what looked like a rebound. This ultimately proved a tease and short-lived with better US data (housing, manufacturing, consumer confidence) being taken well in terms of growth/recovery rather than scaring market with worries of […]

Today is 31 May 2013.  Bumi (LSE:BUMI), the bane of Nat Rothschild’s existence, has, at long last, released its final report for the year ending 31 December 2012.  Its share price did absolutely nothing for the 39th consecutive day because trading of Bumi shares was suspended on the London exchange on 22 April for the […]
