Alliance Witan Share Discussion Threads

I held Witan before 2006; from then to 2010 the share price increased 25%. My notes show that from 2011 to amalgamation my annualised return including income was 8.6% p.a. If ALW can keep that up I shall be happy with the warmth, and not miss the fire.

Yes, as you say, not going to set the market on fire, and it is the weakest of my 'global' holdings, but at 9.2% YTD, plus divis, I'm not really complaining. It's probably more conservative than BUT, which is up 18.8%.

Hi tt,

Well done, a very quiet thread to date, let's hope over coming weeks, months, more investors join the party. I'm quite happy with the merger, ALW won't set the market on fire, which suits me fine.

If the price holds steady over this financial quarter, the Trust may well soon be promoted to the FOOTSIE 100, as you know that potential event will mean FOOTSIE 100 trackers & ETF's etc having to invest in the Trust, which should provide more support for the share price.

Not certain about the facts/data, but my feeling is that Witan & Alliance have been quite popular over the years with private investors.

The fact that institutional investors may join the party in a much bigger way might just be a game changer.
