ammons, have you any experience of being converted to Au$, i wonder how long it takes to get the info of what happens next?

[ammons] 03/11/2009 20:43

That's it chaps! Were dead! http://fool.uk-wire.com/cgi-bin/articles/200911020700036623B.html

my investment is off to au$tralia, going to stick with it.

[stateside] 27/9/2009 15:42

The chronic investor reports that ROC is considering divesting its African assets. Increasing production & exploration towards Asia more & more. Also considers UK & N Zealand as non-core. Good or bad ?? I dunno.

[stateside] 18/9/2009 20:10

That's 2 of us.

[drago] 18/9/2009 18:27

i valued it correctly, but the entire market disagreed, doh!

[stateside] 18/9/2009 18:21

A certain publication (which shall remain nameless cos it gets your post deleted, but it comes out every Friday & starts with the initial I & C) rates it a buy at 30p. Says the UK never valued it correctly. How true.

[markfrankie] 15/9/2009 09:34

will probaby hold? i have ended up here from anzon ael take over, felt good about that as this seemed more liquid at the time although ael was at a bit of a discount, already hold paper certs, "kagarnee" as they say in nepal, what to do?

[steve73] 15/9/2009 08:02

thanks ss, my aussie colleague still rates them a hold, or even a buy at these prices, but I don't want to commit anymore in UK-AIM, and still haven't got round to opening an intl account (the problems of being NFA - no fixed abode)

[stateside] 15/9/2009 07:36

Steve. They are 1:1. I meant the actual Aussie price compared to the UK one. They are now equal though with the ASX price at 61cents. I wonder why the weakness in Aussieland.

[steve73] 15/9/2009 01:56

tgg, I agree that I don't want to be holding overseas paper certs, (I have some EEL paper that's only useful for wiping my ar*e with) but if there's no recovery until then... ss - are you sure that these are at a discount to the ASX shares? I'd always thought they were 1 for 1. hi cm, 333 for me, hope you're well.

[cmabey] 14/9/2009 17:52

Steve73: Hi - hope all well ROC excepted and you (& all) get a decent outcome from this. Have some Mi Xao Cap Tham and a BaBaBa for me, Cheers!

[thegreatgeraldo] 14/9/2009 17:41

Steve73 - 14 Sep'09 - 08:52 - 1040 of 1044 I'll wait to see what idealing suggest I do with my holding - probably convert it to a paper certificate similar to what they do with my shares that get delisted for other reasons... .I'd imagine that would be about the worst option - dealing in an overseas stock via cert. Dealing charges are bad enough for trading in certs on uk stocks!

[stateside] 14/9/2009 13:26

The exchange rate is a variable & will change for the better or worse. Not a lot to be done about that. A silver lining might be that the Aim listed shares will be linked directly to the Aus price as I see it. They'll be converted at a fixed ratio I think. The Aim price has always been at a discount to the Aussie ones haven't they? Not had much time to work it out today yet. This discount may change once the overhang of rapid sellers are cleared out. Could soon be a bargain !! Hahahahahah Always look on the bright side of life :-0

[robwoodt] 14/9/2009 13:01

with the exchange rate at $1.9 to a £1 and historically it's been more around $2.5 to £1. If the £ improves over the $ which i expect to happen over the next year we'll need a lot higher share price to balance the loss from the exchange rate. correct me if i'm wrong?

TDWaterhouse trades Australian listed shares. Not traded any Australian myself, but I have not had any problems with US stocks through them.
