looks like we are filling that gap. i will now look for a buying opp. dont want to catch a falling knife

[yf23_1] 12/4/2009 01:34

well its about to jump one way or the other judging by the wedge on the chart.

[juju43] 10/4/2009 22:40

gap to be filled around 110/111. maybe that will be the bottom

Thats the theory, but this firm has a long history of not delivering

[juju43] 03/4/2009 15:34

yep , thats why i have not pushed the button. however this is ideally placed for bad times and should make lots of money

[neg] 03/4/2009 15:32

Don't waste your time, at best it is a hold at these levels, far better opportunities elsewhere.

[juju43] 03/4/2009 15:14

i still have

[juju43] 18/3/2009 16:53

i have had my finger on the buy button for weeks but cant find the reason to push it. strange share

Interesting post hosede-if you feel BP is a better bet, I'd say your more than welcome to it. I feel divi more sustainable here than the question marks over oil price/BP ability to pay even the same divi over next two years. You pays your money etc etc....Bigger question surely, what in 2 years time for both?

And yes, I know the difference in size/sectors etc. Interesting note from RBS today talking about a company liqiudated recently called Wreckin and Beg the second busiest liquidation business in Scotland, probably behind someone like Deloitte, who got the job.

Well balanced summary, thanks.

For info; there was a smallish article in yesterday's Sunday Times' Business section (p.3) by Ben Marlow titled "1,600 property firms face ruin" which referred to info derived from Begbies Traynor a few times.

It would need to increase earnings by 100% a year for two years - and the half year trading statement showed no sign of that happening

[sprattyken] 23/2/2009 15:25

Expectations!

[hosede] 23/2/2009 15:24

Had a look at this, but if you want something safe/defensive why would buy this on a PE of 26 and a 2.4% yield, when you could by BP (for example) on a PE under 6 and 8.2% yield? Doesn't make any sense to me!

[juju43] 16/2/2009 10:54

looks like we may break the down trend. i will look to buy on any nudge up from here

[sprattyken] 06/2/2009 17:43

Got to be time to buy very soon.
Spread narrowing, lots of negative (positive) newsflow about biz going bust.
Might have a dabble on Monday

[spaceparallax] 22/1/2009 16:56

Pretty decent performance today, holding up well after recent drop.

[yesrupnel] 22/1/2009 10:36

I'm out as well - small loss.

[juju43] 22/1/2009 10:09

out with a small profit at 108. have to wait until the knife lands

[spaceparallax] 21/1/2009 16:52

A least we had a decent bounce from the early low. Let's hope that we don't suffer too much selling tomorrow.

[yesrupnel] 21/1/2009 13:47

Same here - dipped in at 111. Got my money back so far but will get out at end of today and try and make a small amount. I just thought there seem to be a bounce back after the big price drop today and thought with a bit of luck it might correct itself.
