Hammerson Share Discussion Threads

Millenial I have a profit, my friend. Not big, but a profit. Remember today's price, if you received the dividend, is the equivalent of 57.5p of the old, old shares. But we all have our opinions as to what investment is right for us. As I said, my view is to buy when opinion is that times are dire. Your opinion it would appear is don't buy then. In the short term, you may be right or you may be wrong - I really can't predict tomorrow - but I do believe that come the end of the pandemic, given NAV of 98p now, these shares will be up, and the end is in sight. You can't compare with Intu. HMSO are sitting on a cash mountain, and have new management following an effective takeover. Management have put their own money in this and have continued to do so. You only have to look at how the old management did up their HQ - beautiful with no expense spared - to understand what was there before. There is change going on here. Anyway, let's touch base here in three or four months and when the pandemic is hopefully generally over. I'm not a great one for timing but I think if someone did the reverse of what you say and bought at 23 yesterday or even 24.5p today, come the pandemic end they will be sitting on significant profits. Good luck with your trading in the meantime.

Millenial you have a genius for your negative comments just as the price is about to go up. You were advocating selling at 16 p then it went up to 25p. Then when down to 22p you advocate selling again and it goes up to 29p. Then down to 23p, you advocate selling and today its up. I'm not sure if you see a pattern here but you do seem to have something there that people could make money out of, if they do the reverse. I'm not a day trader myself - personally I'm just waiting for the end of the pandemic when I think there will be a major upturn - but you should seriously consider doing the reverse of your instincts and I think you'd make a lot of money.

I'm doing ok thanks millennial thanks to doubling down earlier and a nice scrip dividend ( my 2nd hmso investment after getting out the first time at s good profit).. How's the day trading going? NAV is now 98p per share after the div which gives lots of margin still but this has been a share to buy cheap with a view to holding until the problems are over, not on the basis of a day or two, altho if you can do it good for you. As they say buy when the blood is running down the streets but the idea in that is to sell when it isn't and wait that long. Incidentally Millennial, I notice incidentally whenever you suggest things are only getting worse for HMSO, it's the low point - at 19p you were saying it was madness to buy, discouraging people from what would have been a 50% gain after the dividend. I suppose if you're a momentum trader you're working that the direction continues. My view is that if people are very pessimistic, it's probably a good time to buy if the fundamentals are right. Anyway, hopefully you didn't follow your convictions and sell short. That would have been a wipeout. I guess you know what works for you.

Is this down because of businesses shut down due to Covid 19...and cases on the increase...and probably full national lockdown coming...

[williamcooper104] 21/12/2020 12:51

Doubt it - Trafford is the far better read acrossCould have been a food anchored centre - value of food/supermarkets is going up - (note that even today SUPR is hardly down)Better read across though on retail parks which have picked up recently - and with new opportunistic money coming into the sector - eg M7/Delancey

Quite surprised to see that Stenprop have sold a berlin retail shopping centre for a 19% premium to march valuation.

Yes, Premium.

Is their any read through to hmso asset valuations.

Scrip dividend available to sell and tier 4 lockdown concerns are my guess to add to normal volume.

There was a very high volume of 105 million shares on Friday... Is it because of the dividend payment or market makers are getting ready for Dublin listing?

[researchcentre123] 18/12/2020 10:34

Seems you cant post a link now, but anyway there's an article about Hammerson and its Dublin listing in the FT.

The new management are really on the case:
[...]
It's nice to see that they are really proactive, which is frankly all this company ever needed.

Anyone got their shares yet from the scrip? Am wondering how long they'll take to register.
