RAB Special Situations returned a loss of -20.2% in Q3 2015


"This compares favourably with the mining sector in Q3" (easily pleased)

"FOGL represents 50% of our listed portfolio" (a nice balanced portfolio)

Now that's a great announcement

RAB Special Situations (Master) had not fully sold down stock prior to converison

So holding WAS 6,775,965 NOW 61,445,199

I thought when they went into wind-down they made legal commitment (in return for all investors not asking for their money back straight away i.e. a disorderly liquidation) that they would exercise their own 'orderly liquidation'.

i.e. the fund manager lost some control over what they could do in terms of taking on more commitments and were simply tasked with selling off holdings

I can't understand why RAB are not supporting OXS instead of Darwin.

Guess it will all come out in the wash 'in the very near future'

RSS may be a great backdoor entry to an Oxus re-rate imo (no advice intended)

[the stigologist] 07/10/2015 11:07

I think so. I would quite fancy it if all the focus is on OXS on a decision and RSS gets 'left behind'. I wonder how on the ball the MMs would be. I also wonder if a positive OXS result might have 'positive externalities' on other RAB portfolio positions as they would no longer be 'fire sellers' but ability to potentially be supportive value-adding investors again?

[giant steps] 07/10/2015 11:05

Stig, do you think RSS may have an interesting risk free card with cream ?

edit:
NAV announcement due today, should give a benchmark [then add recent Oxus sales]

[the stigologist] 07/10/2015 10:53

GS as an example what would a 50p or 100p payout on OXS be worth to RSS ?

Apologies for being lazy, if you don't want to work it out or have figures to hand I will have a stab tonight

RAB special situations own 17%

[marmar80] 10/3/2015 20:31

Wonder if RAB is still holding any Oxus Gold shares. Anyone?

[rooky4] 13/1/2015 13:32

RNS: RSS NAV down to 11.43 pence, seems to drift ever lower.
Windup assumed at end of year, so probably worth hanging on, particularly given the silly spread.

[marmar80] 06/1/2015 08:44

You could do better RAB. Easy to gain more interest from OXS investment, by selling your holding in a range 3-4p instead of 2p. You should learn from the recent activity!
