08/3/2022 18:37 | I topped up too. Took me a bit over my (general) 5% portfolio limit for a single stock, but chesnara's divi record gives me some reassurance. | ![]() cassini | |
08/3/2022 16:47 | Put my very small pension pot in here towards the end of the day and children's money as the fall seems overdone. Patience just required now. | ![]() gary1966 | |
08/3/2022 12:33 | Topped up. | ![]() aleman | |
08/3/2022 11:57 | Bought a few today, some of these financial companies appear to be at low valuations with all the market turmoil. Looking for steady income so took profits on BP and MCLS. The yield is the main attraction but, I do wonder if these might be a takeover target at some point, PHNX perhaps? wllm :) | ![]() wllmherk | |

14/2/2022 10:37 | Almost certainly I would say. Very strong pointers | ![]() makinbuks | |
14/2/2022 08:11 | More experience in the Netherlands. I wonder with the money raised if we are looking at Dutch companies for a bolt on. | ![]() killing_time | |
14/2/2022 08:06 | Interesting to see that Chesnara are taking on a NED "with a proven track record in M&A and (digital) transformation"... | ![]() speedsgh | |
07/2/2022 12:53 | All Motley Fools articles just seem to be glorified adverts trying to capture your email address now-a-days, presumably so that thay can sell to you direct. The articles are little more than surface level fluf pieces. I remember when MF was good, offered good basic investment advice and had great forums. I bought a book that they published back in the day and it was really solid. Wouldn't dream of buying anything from them now. | ![]() al101uk | |
07/2/2022 12:25 | I agree; it's surprising how shallow and under-researched these articles can be. They're probably best regarded just as prompts; if someone reads it and likes the sound of the tip then it's up to them to look into it more closely. | ![]() bluemango | |
07/2/2022 12:04 | Bit of a lazy piece that just looking up the highest yielders without any discussion of what risks lie around them. Surprised there hasn't been more press comment about the bond issue. They must have plans for those funds which will be transformational for the business | ![]() makinbuks | |

03/2/2022 16:45 | I held Chesnara for it's boring qualities, a low risk income generator that made occasional earnings enhancing purchases. That made it a very easy hold. It's riskier now, that's not really better or worse than it was before, just different. That risk could generate outperformance or underperformance over the next few years. As a result my attitude to the company has changed. I'll keep a closer eye on it and make sure it's not too overweight in my portfolio but I'm by no means rushing for the exit. I don't think this board has done much except reflect the change in the risk from the perspective of a bunch of people who would typically invest in a Chesnara-like company. | ![]() al101uk | |
03/2/2022 16:29 | No makinbuks. It's not OTT. Cheers Jonwig. I'm 81 and my mind needs a good kicking to wake up. Hoping the board would supply it. If you are older then forget it.(NHF) CSG Forte Adds Tens of Thousands of Merchants and New Partners in 2021 | ![]() petewy | |
03/2/2022 14:51 | Petewy, is your ISA large enough to diversify? I wouldn't replace a cash ISA with a single share whether it was CSN or not. | ![]() makinbuks | |
03/2/2022 14:33 | petewy - no, make up your own mind. I'm probably the oldest person here, I've seen good companies brought down by inept management (as Buffett says, above), and turnarounds - the company Next was about 4p before its rehab to today's rating. I'm keen to see what they do with their £200mn, surely they have plans. Maybe wait on that. | ![]() jonwig | |
03/2/2022 14:20 | Of course if the management is sufficiently inept Buffet said buy companies that a fool can run because sooner or later ..Weinstock must have been turning in his grave | ![]() panshanger1 | |
03/2/2022 13:09 | Read the board so, Do I sell or what? Used CSN to replace an low interest ISA | ![]() petewy | |
03/2/2022 09:56 | GEC was one do the very very few AAA rated companies Always citied as the example that anything can go bust | ![]() williamcooper104 | |
03/2/2022 09:53 | Yep - way to think of it is if you're senior debt is say £90 and your junior is £10 then your junior debt is actually leveraged at 10 to 1 when things go wrong Eg if the whole debt stack is £100 and recovery falls 10 percent from £100 to £90 then you've lost 100 percent of your loan Whereas if you had a whole loan of £100 then you would have just taken a 10 percent loss Hence why need much higher returns for junior debt A BBB- rating/350bps is pretty or actually very good | ![]() williamcooper104 | |
03/2/2022 09:49 | I don't currently; I sold, though not because I was concerned about CSNs balance sheet but more because I thought there was better growth with LGEN/PHNX and got board waited for someone to take over CSN | ![]() williamcooper104 | |
03/2/2022 09:45 | Boystown - yes, I was a contributor to TMF in a small way. It was an excellent forum but of course it made no money for the US owners! Insurance company accounts re a speciality area, and not easy to understand. (I don't pretend to more than the basics, so I'll stick to the IFRS balance sheet.) At the last point, CSN's borrowings were £50m out of net assets of £470m (the MCap is £440m). So debt:equity was 11%. The new bond could raise that to 53%. (Other things being equal.) If there is a substantial fall in both equity and bond markets, financial strain would increase, and a larger surplus would be warranted. (Policy holders are obviously senior to creditors and share holders.) At least they won't sit on their £200m cash, they'll deploy it very quickly, so we'll see more clearly what their strategy is. Remember GEC under Lord Weinstock? One of the safest and most consistently profitable companies in the world. When he retired, the new owners went dotcom crazy. The shares fell from a high of 1250p to 4p in 2002. None of that is a prediction, and I'll likely stick around to see what their plan is. Anyway, make up your own mind and don't listen to me! | ![]() jonwig | |
03/2/2022 09:31 | Don't currently hold but have been taking a closer look and will probably buy some. Looks a good solid income stock which should hold up pretty well if markets remain choppy. Also hold PHNX which has a similar risk profile, although not quite a cheap as CSN. | ![]() riverman77 | |
03/2/2022 09:16 | I suggest they get Andy Murray to provide the commentary with the next results presentation; that should make it sound reassuringly boring enough again? | ![]() bluemango |
