Well, there was a slight problem with the bid: "The report by Ernst & Young says the alternative bid was rejected by DTZ's directors because [...] it did not have the support of DTZ's main lender Royal Bank of Scotland". That's a bit of a non-starter.

In any case, Loverat you keep going on about "they" must do something. Who are "they"? You just fail to grasp that you as an investor are responsible for your own decisions. When you buy a share, you put your money into the hands of the management. If that management squander away your money, you have to take it up with management as a shareholder. There is no third party ("they") that will help you. You are free to take the directors to court for making the wrong decision and rejecting the bid. Good luck with that.

From the Hong Kong Standard:




I think the Hong Kong Standard should consider their own involvement in possible wrongdoing. Specifically, what was the source of the following article? I believe it helped to create false hope and sucked some people into buying worthless shares.

Every time I've seen this sharp fall followed by a rise it usually means the take over offer will follow shortly.I can see it coming either today or tomorrow morning.It's usually done to quickly frighten investors to gain more stock before the offer comes.

ASHTENNE INDUSTRIAL FUND ANNOUNCES GBP364 MILLION REFINANCING AND RAISES GBP45
MILLION OF NEW EQUITY

holder), was raised entirely from within the Fund's existing investor base and
was significantly oversubscribed, demonstrating investor confidence in the

The results are due any day now, maybe next week. Yesterday's weakness in a strong market and today's big sell-off on decent volume suggests that they are going to be very bad. Why anyone should be surprised by very bad figures is the mystery. We had an Interim Statement a few weeks ago that laid it all out, and it is standard practice for new management to throw everything AND the kitchen sink into write-offs, lay it all at the door of the old management and have the cost structure sufficiently reduced to produce a recovery in profits asap. Obviously, the commercial property market is currently crawling along the bottom with poor pricing and low volume. The cycle WILL turn and the shares will be a lot higher. For patient investors only.

LMAO. Why would I be bitter Martin, I left DTZ and almost doubled my salary after gaining a hatful of experience. I owe the Donaldsons team bundles and am most grateful to them for treating me with respect and allowing me the autonomy to do my job, something the DTZ folk weren't interested in exploiting, so your silly remark is most amusing. I am merely passing on my own experience of the DTZ machine so you investors understand the facts, which of course you can choose to ignore if you so wish. I guess you must need to take out your anger on an easy target, the share price has really punished you, hasn't it. I saw this as a screaming short from £6 a share in May 07, but couldn't trade due to a NDA. I have been spot on for nigh on 18 months, calling every stage of the massive slump. So I'm not the bitter one dear boy.

Do enjoy your day.

Just been over for a quick look. I see you are a big fan of Roger Bootle. I'm certainly a fan of the way he has explained things in plain English so that everyone can understand a pretty involved situation. I LOVE him for the way he has torn into the banks' managements despite the fact that its going to cost him business.

My guru is Jim Rogers, founder, with the more famous George Soros, of the Quantum Fund. He was definitely the brains and Soros the communicator. I first saw him on tv in October 1984, on Wall Street Week, when I was working in the States. Introduced as one of the all-time great stock-pickers, I yawned and thought to myself, uh, oh, another yankee snake oil salesman. 15 minutes later I was saying to myself "How can one man know so much?" I've since followed everything he's written and watched anything I could find him on. I hate his politics-like you he wants to see no quarter given to the Citicorps and GM's of this world-but I doubt there has ever been a more successful investor. Shares are his second string. Commodities are his forte. Fun aside. He's been a fan of China for the past 20 years. So much so that when his first daughter was born about 4 years ago he got her a chinese nanny. She (the daughter) now speaks fluent Mandarin. Planning ahead...

Last word. He's started shorting the US long bond. I'm right behind him.

There was comment on the radio earlier this week about the falling prices encouraging international property buyers in the UK market. What the journalist failed to observe was the impact of the fundamental weakness in Sterling. Any potential overseas investor in the UK should be considering a distressed entry of Sterling into the Euro. If the entry rate were say £2:€1, would it affect their decision. The answer is obviously yes. That may not be the rate, but until there is clarity on the entry rate, then no one will move. Clarity will not be achieved before an election because Brown is not going to resolve the structural budget defecit before then. After the election, if he wins he will then have to deal with an immense problem, if he looses he does not care.

What a mess, but like the Speaker, none of it is his fault.

For avoidance of doubt I have gone short in this share.

The reasons for going short are primarily based on the sector. I still do not feel that the recessionary pressures are sufficiently factored into property prices, which will impact DTZ.

The timing of their international diversification could not have come at a worse time.

They now have £152m of goodwill on the BS, net current assets of c£20m, and long term debt of £63m. The later is going to draw on cashflow, which is under pressure from profitability.

They have a big investor at 28% shareholding who has the cash to bail them out, but I cannot see them being altruistic, when they could make a 'distressed' offer. Current investors may moan and groan, but it appears that they need £20m to supplement cashflow (a result of weak profits/losses?), and right now I cannot see banks being involved in a bail out in the property sector. That leaves their key investor taking the risk.

I have no idea at what price but the current market cap of c£50m looks generous.

The final issues which persuaded me to go short were the risk of controls over a disparate and new empire in the current climate, and a rather poorly presented set of accounts.
