A little bit of volume today




140p target I think

Half year report is approx. 4 weeks away I think.



Looking at the chart I'm seeing a couple of things;-
1. Falling wedge.
I like these often they are a bullish pre-curser. It's not a particularly defined one here since MLIN is a bit illiquid, but the point co-incodes with the longer up-trend.

2. RSI (I've picked 21 day - seems to go nicely with previous moves) also indicates we're into "buy" territory.

SO, I reckon fundamentals are pretty firm (notwithstandding global economic issues). Thus I have snaffled a few up.

The retirement crisis was thrown into sharp relief yesterday as official figures showed that the collective shortfall in company pension schemes had ballooned to a record £312.1bn last month. It marked the highest deficit in final-salary pension schemes since records began in May 2003, according to the Pension Protection Fund, the lifeboat for stricken schemes. In its latest monthly update, the PPF said that only 929 of the 6,432 schemes that it monitors had more than enough funds to meet their long-term obligations. At the same time last year, more than 2,260 schemes were in surplus and the collective deficit in company schemes was only £24.5bn. The PPF blamed the problem on tumbling gilt yields, which are used to calculate pension liabilities. Drops in yields of as much as 0.55% last month had more than offset gains in equity markets, it said, according to The Times.

So in essence a common problem...needs to be dealt with one way or another.

Babs2012
Interesting links thanks.

Pensions can be tricky things to manage that's for sure. A real change in the landscape needs to take place, managing existing structures is a minefield.

May I ask what you're connection is with MLIN. I can see that you're profile is newly created so I'm making some asumptions which are probably inacurate.

TIA.

Oh dear !! the future looks bleaker now. How to upset and de-motivate your small amount of still working staff whilst having no effect on the thousands already on pensions or due pensions.

Canaccord Genuity retains its buy stance for Molins PLC 30/04/12 with a 138p price target.

[battlebus2] 30/4/2012 08:09

Cash balance the same ?

[castleford tiger] 26/4/2012 18:00

I remain a big fan

[thorpematt] 26/4/2012 14:29

Sales orders are orders placed (work in progress and things due for completion).

Sales invoiced (achieved) are things delivered and completed.

So orders being up augers well for second half.

Make sense?

[mctmct] 26/4/2012 13:21

Positive IMS, IMHO.

One puzzle: "Order Intake in each of the Group's three divisions is ahead of the same period last year. Sales in the first part of the year are at broadly similar levels to last year and are in line with internal plans."

What is the difference between sales and order intake?

150 written all over it.
Business is good but 2nd half weighted.

[cockneyrebel] 24/4/2012 10:49

up through the 50 day moving average today - interesting that it has done that when the Interim Man Statement is under two weeks away.

CR

[s34icknote] 21/4/2012 13:18

Looks like picking up!

[battlebus2] 20/4/2012 16:23

A better day should settle your nerves simonh88.

[cockneyrebel] 20/4/2012 11:11

Bought back in today ahead of that trading update sicknote, wondering if Schwartz will do the same too soon?

Good chart support around this level imo.

[steeplejack] 20/4/2012 10:47

This stock,like others of similar size and trading activity,tends to drift between announcements.It's done it before as the chart shows.I'd recommend patience but it is irritating.

[s34icknote] 20/4/2012 10:40

6 th May the trading update last year !

[simonh88] 18/4/2012 18:41

what's up with this damned donkey, why didn't it level out in the 130s.

Looks like another one I'll be ditching shortly

[battlebus2] 18/4/2012 18:00

If your holding long term the divi always pays but i wouldn't hold for the divi to then sell the mm's always win at that game imv.

[s34icknote] 18/4/2012 12:08

So waiting for div never paid off as we were at 138p down to 115p today !
