into breakout now tho guys! yippee!

[rivaldo] 20/2/2006 12:42

Yep, and a bit of buying at 79p too. Siskinbird's right - seems like ADVFN are expecting 92p :o))

[rochdae] 20/2/2006 12:41

Excellent stuff. A great earner this, and with no worries attached... unlike the rest of my portfolio.

[factsonly] 20/2/2006 12:12

nice little x trade - obviously one of the MMs needs some stock.

[siskinbird] 20/2/2006 11:33

I like the new scale on the intraday chart!! Does someone at ADVFN know something?

[049balt] 20/2/2006 10:49

rivaldo,I see you are checking out VLR, I have been a holder for a while now, the rerating should gather speed soon I think.

[factsonly] 20/2/2006 10:18

I'm scouring the market for another buy, but can't find any as real good value as HWY. (Actually, I've been looking for over a month now, the only share I bought a couple of weeks ago, albeit risky is BAY, couldn't help taking advantage of Iran oil worries which drove its share price down).

The MMs really need to make the spread a bit tighter to generate some trading.

[rivaldo] 20/2/2006 08:45

Yep, and picking up nice steam now only just over 2 weeks before results...

[factsonly] 17/2/2006 16:30

getting excited? I am... all those advfn "buy" votes is itself a very good sign (how rare is that!?)

[gswredland] 17/2/2006 16:24

ok i got a bit carrried away!...not maintained it anyway
Good news about results siskin.

[factsonly] 17/2/2006 16:19

Not really a breakout, more of "a continuation of the uptrend", personally expecting more rises to come, pre and post prelims.

[rivaldo] 17/2/2006 15:16

Now that IS good news Siskinbird, thx. Nine days earlier than last year - you don't find companies bringing results forward unless it's good news in my experience.

[siskinbird] 17/2/2006 14:25

Prelims are on 8th March, according to company's website.

Breakout gswredland? That sounds a bit dramatic, but it's certainly very steady progress. 1p or so per day will do very nicely!

[gswredland] 17/2/2006 12:05

blimey..breakout..can it last?

[factsonly] 17/2/2006 11:55

The buying isnt slowing down, could see another push up again.

[rivaldo] 17/2/2006 10:44

Nice buying this morning, and fantastic that large holders can top-slice whilst the price moves steadily up. There's every reason for the rise to continue with good results imminent (imo) and the ex-div date only a month away.

[factsonly] 16/2/2006 19:43

Put it this way... the less these big players hold, the more profit there is to be had for us relatively smaller players.

[singing the blues] 16/2/2006 19:26

Hi SIS.......Have a holding here to altho not big enuff I'm beginning to think!
I have been through the news items back Sept last year and all the major holders have steadily reduced there holdings however this has got to be a long term hold, I reckon 6-9mnths in my opinion. Upward trend well in tact, keep thinking about adding more very soon.

By my reckoning I think that the following own :
North Atlantic hold 9,726,000 4.79%
Barclays 6,926,000 3.40%
Fidelity 3,415,000 1.68%
UBS 7,997,000 3.93%

Regards

Interesting RNS today. North Atlantic have reduced their holding by about 2 million shares since the last notification, which was just the 25th January - during which time the share price has risen steadily (more or less...). Surely this is a very strong sign? All imho of course - would welcome other views.

Joining you guys with 10k - lovely divi and equally nice looking chart.

[gswredland] 16/2/2006 08:36

thanks rivaldo...looking like we might breakout

[rivaldo] 16/2/2006 08:26

The final divi should be 3.4p per this from the interims:

"Board intends to increase full year dividend by 89% to 5.0p per share."

Last year's ex-div date was 23rd March, so not long to go. If the year has gone really well, maybe the divi might even be more? Still, 3.4p would do me fine as a further 4.5% return.

[gswredland] 15/2/2006 23:46

how much is the divi guys?when does it go ex divi?

[rivaldo] 15/2/2006 14:09

HWY making another break for it now.....Factsonly, HWY will undoubtedly have the figures already, these days it's the audit and finalisation/wording that takes ages. Looking forward to receiving that fat divi in my ISAs and PEPs!

[factsonly] 11/2/2006 01:41

Maybe they have their results already? and they're just being audited at the moment?
