Pacific Assets Share Discussion Threads

With Witan Pacific (WPC) going to turn into a 100% China trust run by Baillie Gifford, and since I will likely choose to convert; for diversification purposes I am looking for an Asia Pacific/Far East ex-Japan and "low China" as ex-China is not yet a region.
I hold some Japan exposure separately.

This one has some Japan, but I could live with it.

I intend to follow it for a while, then decide upon getting a position when WPC is no more.

Any comment welcome.

I quite like First State Asia Pacific.
Also it is not 'cheap' but is well of highs.
Depends if you think the market will be weak in August September.
Close watch with view to invest.

Worth noting that a large number of F&C investors will be forced sellers over the next few weeks, could prompt some weakness relative to NAV? I will certainly be watching for buying opportunities.

Then again it is also possible that NAV will be impacted as the new managers cause a bit of churn in the holdings?

Either way its on my watch list.

Bought into this following the appointment of First State as investment manager. What do other holders think of the change? Their other asian investment trust has performed much better than this over the medium term, so hoping it can be replicated here from a sound start point.

Thought it time for a new thread on Pacific Assets Trust given the change to a new investment manager;

A new high at 150p.

Looking back at the charts I reviewed 12 months ago, IND is another one that is coming along very nicely. I shall let the charts do the talking.



Short term:


Longer term:

DGM - Looking good.

Looking back at the charts I looked at in Feb 2004 when it was trading at 8p. Performing to plan. Took longer than I anticipated but support and resistance all played as expected. Looks like next stop is circa 21p.

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 23:23

PXC: Breached 1 yr support. There is support at r=9.25p and then at circa 9p at the 200day EMA. Will watch closely.

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 23:14

SUG: Don't like the look of this. Needs to regain 200day EMA or may see it go all the way to next support at 92p.

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 23:05

OBS: Still can't make head or tails from the charts. Any views?

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 22:58

DGM: Still looking okay but may retrace to retest support or consolidate for the MAs to catch up.

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 22:52

PEN: Support still intact. May have further to fall to test support levels.

[pacman88] 12/5/2004 22:46

KWL: Has breached 2 yr support. Needs to regain it if we are to see any more progress. On my watchlist to exit if support is not regained.
