Wonder why he got so many votes against him?

This does seem to be stabilising over 300 level as tech / growth retreats and more value type stocks gain some momentum

[gateside] 21/1/2022 08:46

Could sell at 300.8pSo spread is actually (currently) very tight.

[woodhawk] 21/1/2022 08:43

Yes, I was aware of that, thanks Gateside - can do that with many stocks, ditto selling.

[gateside] 21/1/2022 08:42

Ask is 305.5pJust did a dummy trade - was offered 301.4p to buy.

[gateside] 21/1/2022 08:40

You can usually buy well inside the spread.

[scruff1] 21/1/2022 08:33

Most stocks that are slow trading have quite wide spreads - they reckon its because such stocks when they do move tend to move with bigger points steps as it were and the wider spread is to account for that. The mms probably dont hold many of those stocks either. I think !!

Thanks - interesting perspective LG.

[woodhawk] 21/1/2022 08:22

Yes, as a new investor in this, I've noticed that too over the past week or so.

[lord gnome] 21/1/2022 08:11

It seems to start off the day with a wide spread and then it narrows as the day progresses and the bid side of the book builds up. I get this with a number of other stocks where trade is not so vigorous.

I held HFEL for several years but sold out @338.4p on 31/01/20. I reinvested last September @292.5 and have topped up since taking my average cost to 295.2p. I do not recall there being such a wide spread in the past - does anyone have any idea why this is now the case?

[woodhawk] 20/1/2022 15:06

Thanks for that, speedsgh.

Dividend Declaration -

The directors have declared the first interim dividend of 5.90p (five point nine zero pence) per ordinary share in respect of the year ending 31 August 2022. The dividend will be paid on 25 February 2022 to shareholders on the register on 28 January 2022 (the record date). The shares will be quoted ex-dividend on 27 January 2022.

Difficult to disagree with your last paragraph.. If UK stocks are overvalued the rest certainly are. They are no higher now than they were 5 years ago.

[rogerramjett] 19/1/2022 07:03

Always headwinds. HFEL provide a little diversity to a diverse portfolio. Can't see interest rates going anywhere near inflation figures. It would cripple mortgage payers and smash the housing market to pieces.

War in Ukraine is possible. Covid continues. Blah blah blah.

I think investors are looking for value and dividends now. Markets may be at all time highs but should they not be ? UK markets are running on low PEs so perhaps not overvalued. Not to say that impacts HFEL because of the nature of the IT but it does add a little diversity to a diverse PF.

[exel] 18/1/2022 11:35

Seems so? Gateside, but the lower measure of TNAV per share (the one I routinely track) has slipped back (again!) to 293.8p. This key indicator may be acting as a persistent brake? Meanwhile - MMs?/Buyer Demand? are pushing up the price, as recently seen (notably yesterday & partly today) which in turn is pushing up the premium in very uncertain markets. As stated above, not by me, who wants to pay a premium (for HFEL) in over-rated wider markets with so many visible headwinds?

[gateside] 17/1/2022 14:46

Might be finally breaking out of the 295 - 300p range

[rogerramjett] 14/1/2022 18:02

Yes. This has worked out to be my biggest investment trust holding. I'm seeing value at this level.

[coxsmn] 14/1/2022 17:39

Whoever down ticks this post is a complete moron

[orinocor] 14/1/2022 14:22

yes you are right. Nav up to to 299.8p
Dividend announcement very soon.

[coxsmn] 14/1/2022 13:06

Looking good value here

Worked fine for me, you have to give an email address and agree to them spaming you, but a temporary address works fine.

They send a download link.
