Downing Strategic Micro-... Share Discussion Threads

Arguably doing rather well so far - though would rather judge them on performance, and it's a bit early for that.

Interesting how smallcap ITs often trade on big discounts, but microcaps often on a premium.

Agreed @njb67. Not sure how long they'll take to get invested - nor if they'll just bung the lot into Hornby - but happy to sit on them from IPO.

I joined the IPO. One to tuck away as a long term hold.

Andy. There you are! Will see you on thursday & return the drink with interest. Yes have already enjoyed our hols I'm afraid. Had wonderful time and good weather. In the sea most days and so busy cycling, walking, sitting by our duck pond that we never made it to the Brace of Pheasants. Did most of our evening drinking on the quay at Wareham so could cycle home afterwards. See you thursday.
Paul.
