Thanks, it's why I was reluctant as I couldn't work out why the need for two.

Han A non voting. Ords having voting rights where you can use to have the occasional protest against the Salomons...

[casholaa] 02/11/2021 14:01

Any idea what the difference is between han & hana???

Might be mad but bought some at 37% discount (211p) as that does seem wide even for this...

Given how the UK government has turned anti-business and free markets this past year, it's looking like a fabulous decision by the Hansa board.

I also see a potential major upturn in commodities, so Brazilian shipping will do well. Given the 30% discount, this screams buy. Especially as Britons realise they need to get more of their capital outside the UK.

Joined in today. Hopefully levelled out at worse. Share price has been ok since April so might pick up in a Santa Rally.

Ah right, thanks for the reply, appreciated.

Were IHT an issue for the Salomons, you've got nearly 300p of assets valued for IHT purposes at 200p.

[essentialinvestor] 12/2/2020 13:23

Why the buying is what I'm wondering?.

[rambutan2] 11/2/2020 19:55

At 190p that's £1.235m to add to his recent share buying splurge:

On 07 February 2020, Hansa Investment Company Limited (the "Company") was notified that William Salomon, Director of the Company, had acquired an interest in the share capital of the Company shares. Following this purchase of 650,000 'A' ordinary shares, his total interest in the Company is 10,864,345 ordinary shares and 1,570,500 'A' ordinary shares.

Good point

Thanks Steve wise words me thinks

SL. Stating the obvious perhaps but yes, the large discount creates the potential for the shares to be a buy. But if that discount persists you would also be selling at a large discount. I first tried to profit from a 30% Hansa discount in the early 2000s but it’s now even higher. I’m not convinced the company is fun for my benefit and it’s been a long term underperformer in my portfolio. There are times I’ve topped up, top sliced, gone all in and all out, to little avail. I’ve hung around in the hope of something strategic occurring to crystallise value but it’s evidently not in the Salomon interests, at least not in the current generations interest. I won’t be around for the next generation. Just saying.....

Ram have you invested into the hansa fund, looks good but large discount and 5 Yr performance aren't that good.

Have a look at buffettology fund. Higher risk accepted.

[solarno lopez] 23/1/2020 07:43

Considering the large NAV discount to the current share price are the shares a buy ….they must be surely ?

[solarno lopez] 23/1/2020 07:40

Thank you Rambutan excellent find

[rambutan2] 23/1/2020 04:59

Yield is 1.7% at 189p, say they:

[solarno lopez] 22/1/2020 14:27

Thank you Risky and Essential I was working on quarterly dividends of 1.6p to arrive at my 3.2%

[essentialinvestor] 22/1/2020 14:10

solarno, if you want to check yields, Morningstar or HL usually useful.
