Encouraging that this is (slightly) up on a down day for the market generally. I added to my (long) spread bet today.

Yesterday's Darlings with a significant barrier to entry and a definable niche are very attractive on the dance floor.
CHG have been recovering for a while now, whereas AGK is bottom fishing (let's hope there isn't a trench!)

Thanks APAD. I have made a small purchase this morning via a s/b, tight stop. May increase my exposure further once i've done some real review. Funnily enough, have also been looking at CHG, which i used to hold back in the day. That'll come good again imo.

G,
I'm buying back in at these levels.
Cash flow figures are good and they have had very large capital expenditure recently.
Tintins fixated on one off boosts.
When assessing include the return of capital in the form of B Shares (year before last I think!)
Let us know what you think when you have done due diligence.
Also buying CHG for recovery.
Yesterday's Darlings :-)

I'm pretty new to looking at this share. Not a holder. Good chart support at this level though. Might be tempted to make a first purchase here, subject to getting comfortable with the fundamentals. Seems to have been a not insignificant director buy in the low 1600s recently.

Also Aggreko will supply at least some power for Sochi '14 Winter Olympics which start in Feb.14, according to Cameron...

PRIME MINISTER OF THE UNITED KINGDOM DAVID CAMERON: Thank you very much, Mr President, and thank you for the warm welcome that you've given to me and my team here today. I'm very pleased to be here with you in Sochi, and we have had, as you said, very substantive, very purposeful, very useful talks today. We last met at the London Olympics, and it's fitting that we're here in the next host city. And I'm looking forward to seeing the Olympic sites with you this afternoon.

Britain and Russia share many interests: security at home and abroad, leadership in the G8, the G20 and the United Nations, and also, building our businesses and our investment banks so that we both thrive in the global race. Of course, it's no secret that there are issues where we differ. We don't duck these; we've had very frank discussions, as we have today. But a more effective relationship will help make people in both our countries safer and better off. And that is what we've been focusing on today.

On the Winter Olympics, on my last visit to Russia, I brought a plane of British business leaders keen to seize the opportunities posed by these games, and they have, as you said, done just that, with over fifty companies involved, from Populous to help design the main stadium, to Aggreko, who will be providing some of the power. We've also discussed how we both want the Sochi Games to be safe and secure Games. So today, I've agreed with President Putin that there should be limited cooperation between our security services for the Sochi Olympics.

World Cup in brazil, Africa contract on stream, any unfortunate natural disaster?

[aspers] 18/9/2013 14:19

Good article in the Herald today about the contract secured for the Americas Cup.......AGK being a Scotish Company I feel is a no brainier to win the contract for the Commonwealth Games in Scotland next year....1585 is a rock solid bottom, so much so I topped up another £10k yesterday :-)

[philo124] 18/9/2013 11:52

I am not a chartist but I don't like it when it appears that all support lines have been broken through downwards; so if 1585p is breached where then? 1525p?
I am not selling; infact will top in Sipp in due course.

[betman] 18/9/2013 11:42

hi philo would appreciate your insights into which aspects of the chart look bad
I can see a downtrend from March but a triple bottom support around 1585 ?? However is that a massive head and shoulders since 2011 ?? Are there any knowledgeable chartists to give their views

[philo124] 17/9/2013 19:37

Chart looks bad.

[betman] 17/9/2013 15:26

Not a chartist but 1600 seems a real resistance level, I am thinking this is a good buying level, maybe post Fed announcement tomorrow

You wait until you're short that's when the fairies come bearing gifts!

Penycae, don't tell me you're into this. Did the monkey put you up to it? He'll be the death of you you know.
