Lowland Investment Share Discussion Threads

Hmm, yes, the SNR chart is not a pretty sight.

Have been mulling over getting back into LWI again soon. It's had a torrid time over the last year or so, but the tide could be about to turn.

James Henderson going through a difficult patch atm.

Another blow for him yesterday on the Senior PlC statement.

Having lauded the investment case for SNR at the last LWI report.

I've added a few more.

[scottishfield] 14/3/2017 13:47

Anyone home?

Extremely disappointing since I bought, other similar trusts doing much better.

This trust has a great manager and long term record. Will take the opportunity to add at a suitable point and double up.

[mr angry] 02/9/2014 14:01

Y v disappointing, i'm out as of a week or so ago. I think i put most into IUKD.

[rrr] 27/8/2014 08:36

Yes how right you are, I bought at a bad time it turns out but will
wait for better things (I hope).

This has become very disappointing as a generalist IT this
summer.
With a big diversified portfolio it should at least behave like
a
closet index tracker and preferably outperform the general
market.
I would have done better with a simple FTSE tracker, and at
lower
cost, this year, having bought this for a bit of stability in
my
otherwise whacky pension fund. I'm out, in favour of Scottish
Mortgage.

I like Temple Bar too but don't (yet) hold. I do hold Lowland and another one well worth a look, Law Debenture LWDB. If you don't know it, it is an IT plus a long-established pension etc trustee business; sell at a premium, perhaps for good reason. Those are my top three general ITs. Yields around 3% if I remember rightly.

[beardmore] 09/11/2013 10:36

Yes, agreed. I also like (and hold) Temple Bar and Finsbury Growth & Income.

[rrr] 09/11/2013 10:28

One of the very best general ITs, Lowland, I think.

Being a contrarian myself, I moved INTO Edinburgh after Neil's announcement about leaving IP, as it moved to a discount and there's no certainty that he will leave Edinburgh. However, i also agree that LWI is an excellent alternative an i'm in there too.

Well, I'm with you there and, having been disappointed to read of Neil Woodford's upcoming move from Edinburgh Trust, I'm thinking of selling that (hitherto) core holding and splitting the proceeds between Lowland, Diverse Income & Temple Bar. Just waiting for a break-even price on Edinburgh.

[plasybryn] 17/10/2013 16:35

What a long term performer this is. A great core holding in any long term investment portfolio IMO.

Current price is roughly on a par to NAV without any discount !

Excellent!

Hope it eventually gets back to £11+

I add shares in the 'Sharesave' scheme rather than get cash divis - so am getting a few more shares each time because of the weak price.

Looks like it could have bottomed out at around 395p in early December. It has now gradually moved up by 18% over the past 5 weeks.
