Posted at 13/1/2014 17:14 by lanzarote666 So has JP Morgan got the timing of their underweight rating sent to investors on Friday wrong? |

Posted at 06/6/2013 14:43 by thorne3 Predicting defence related orders is a very fickle business and I too felt that the interim statement was cautious.However I do feel that this company will pull through and that we will all be amply rewarded in the end.This is likely to come in the form of a takeover sometime in the next two years when a degree of critical mass has been achieved.A similar situation which is now coming right and which medium term investors might take a look at is Energy Technique(etq)The Board's recent pronouncements and decisions make for.. very interesting reading.I'm not a ramper so I'll say no more. |
Posted at 01/6/2013 20:32 by interceptor2 Hi Battlebus, Sorry to hear you have been unwell, I have been spending today with my family, where both my Mum and my Auntie have suffered strokes and have since recovered. So your post is a good wake up call that I will heed to lead as healthy a life style as possible.Very good post from GHF, always good to hear how other investors operate, and very interesting to read the path they have followed to become a successful investor. Every time I make an investment in a company, I view my investment as a long term investment of between 1 and 3 years. But this very rarely tends to be the case, apart from in a few cases. DRV is my longest held stock at 16 months, yet I currently hold stocks that I have held before. I guess that because I keep records of stocks after I sell them, then I know the company well and have more confidence to buy in again, when the time is right. I remember reading in the Zulu Principle, Jim Slater saying that he is a nervous holder of stocks, and will sell a holding on any negatives or even very slight ones. I have always remembered this remark, and it seems to have worked well so far. Because for example with MAN, I have only sold because I am unsure if they can make full year estimates, and while I wait on the sidelines for a trading update before the full year, I can hopefully use the money elsewhere to increase my pot. But I understand that LTBH can be a successful way to invest and on many occasions I would have been better off holding rather then selling and buying back later. But everyone has to decide on a strategy that suits their personality, and one they feel comfortable with imo. Regards ic2... |
Posted at 01/6/2013 13:52 by battlebus2 Much appreciated guys, thankfully my movement etc gets a little better with each day now and with any luck this one finger typing will be a thing of the past. I guess my unhealthy lifestyle eventually caught up with me. If you've got one think about changing it before it's to late. The days i turned down a trip to the gym i now regret.That is an interesting concept the new generation of "fleet of foot" investors, i maybe tend to hold my core portfolio too tightly as i'm not keen on the taking of profits for me it's only a buy or sell that's why i pointed out Manroy for me atleast isn't a sell. It's been very successful for me over the years and has produced decent returns, i can only remember a couple of losses and a couple of forced delistings that i stuck with which in the end proved very fruitful, every member of my former shares club could vouch for that. Good luck to all in whatever way they invest, my main point was to show i was still a happy holder. Thanks again everyone. |
Posted at 01/6/2013 10:50 by glasshalfull Battlebus - I noted that you hadn't posted & put it down to hols. Like others here, I trust that you are recovering well & would like to pass on my best wishes. Puts into perspective the importance of health.I've documented my rationale for selling initially as I thought forecasts would be downgraded & having just had a quick look at my calcs I've made a 38% return here since initial purchases in Jan 2013. I'm happy with that & if the gangway has been raised when I return to the HMS Manroy, then so be it. I would suggest that Mr Market will not afford MAN a higher rating until they now deliver...benefit of the doubt was given following their v difficult 2012 once the orders started to flow through in early 2013 with shareprice responding accordingly. Unfortunately & most probably outwith their control, 2013 forecast figures have now been downgraded twice. The first downgrade was seen as rebalancing of forecasts and occurred simultaneous with the fresh Allenby coverage at the beginning of the year, but they've now indicated a second miss as I had anticipated on Thursday morning. Agree with sentiments expressed over long term prognosis - as I documented - but feel that I can use my proceeds far more productively meantime & compound my initial capital and profit elsewhere. Like many of the on this board I've been investing for a considerable amount of time and I would say that since 2009-10 we've noted that the timescales of investors holding a stock have shortened dramatically. LTBH/ ZULU approach were my strategies in the 90's and early part of 2000, but during the bear markets of 2007-08 I held firm while portfolio was decimated and fortunately with additional fresh funds in 2009 rode the recovery. Since this time I suspect that communications have improved 10-fold with the likes of instant price data available anywhere, anytime, via smart devices & the ease with which one can buy & sell, also anywhere, anytime. Add into the mix that the likes of teenagers now have ability to short shares, trade CFDs and spreadbet & the advent of instant communication/news via social media & you've one hell of volatile mix. Look at the likes of the CUP or QPP thread to see some of the cretins that indulge. My point is that while I still hold shares for many years - ETO & SPRP over 4 years and OMIP for just shy (all are triple baggers and more) - my strategy has changed with the times and I use the experience gained aligned with current investor mindset. Simple as that. So while some choose to stay-put or bottom drawer an investment - and there's certanly nothing wrong with that - many will attempt to tread a path between both camps and I'm sure that as cfro & ic2 having invested & posted here recently wouldn't mind me indicating that I would class them as two of the new-generation "fleet of foot" investors, and very successful they are too. Determining when to hold for the longer term & also selling out when they perceive that the story or risk/reward profile has changed. Good luck all & wishing you a speedy recovery battlebus. Regards, GHF |
Posted at 30/5/2013 07:19 by glasshalfull H1 update confirms record order books which now stands at £24m - or £20m between UK & 49% portion of US businesses. The H2 weighting was well flagged (£14.5m revenues forecast) & it appears that they have now most of the building blocks in place to achieve 8p EPS forecast for the current year.Management are meeting investors over the next few days and I'd hope for confirmation of full year forecasts later today. Regards, GHF |
Posted at 29/4/2013 08:27 by bookbroker Sellers in this stock at the moment, need some sort of trading update as in previous years, seems to be rattling investors that we haven't yet had one, are they considering some sort of cash raising to support balance sheet, why the falls when such positive news being emitted by co. thus far in 2013, despite being up twenty per cent so far this year! |
Posted at 22/4/2013 16:08 by cfro Yes, i think most investors are anticipating some kind of news or announcement of some sort soon. |
Posted at 12/4/2013 12:42 by thorne3 Bookbroker -I agree there is something strange about the share price action here which I cannot put my finger on.I think for a lot of investors the jury may be out until such time as 1)the £8m order is confirmed and 2) more light is shed on the MUSA situation.If these matters proceed as planned then the share price will really light up.I am advised that its merely a matter of patience. |
