29/3/2023 13:00 | Didn't those guys pay quite a big premium to TBV though? I bought Arbuthnot in 2016 actually because its look through equity exposure to STB put a negative EV on the rest of the business. | catabrit | |
29/3/2023 12:03 | Whilst recent market sentiment to banks & consumer lenders has not helped matters.The major reason for the fall in STB share price was the dismal results for the first half of the 22 financial year announced in early August.The decision to have a four times covered dividend did not help matters either. Virtually everybody who has held STB for any period longer than a few months has lost money and those institutions who bought shares when it was floated out of Arbuthnot ARBB & in subsequent placings of ARBB's remaining holdings have made a massive loss.Most still hold the stock they bought,it is not easy to sell in large amounts unless there is a willing buyer.STB may be a bit undervalued but there is in my opinion a problem with the company.STB is not "connected" to its shareholders with smallcap companies you need directors who have a meaningful interest in the company & are interested in maintaining & improving value for shareholders.STB is run by managers for managers. | 1tx | |
28/3/2023 16:14 | Yeah this is a classic case of suffering from the wider fears that are so prevalent elsewhere. I literally top-ticked (seldom happens) this and sold at 780 bid or whatever it was. Nothing to do with valuation and prospects and more to do with opportunity cost and wanting to be prepared for anything that followed the banking collapse in the US. I think you just need to be patient. It’s a really frustrating market. So much of what I’m following has trended back down again. My selling has been amazing but my buying this year has been patchy at best. I’m underwater on a lot of new purchases. STB will come good. I’m tempted to buy it again on continued weakness as it’s a great little company with a great risk reward. | catabrit | |
28/3/2023 16:08 | If the conditions are as I believe, with credit tightening and STB having cash, the lower price just means a higher yield for buyers - TBD. People will still need finance but the cost isn't coming down. Sad state of affairs. | p1nkfish | |
28/3/2023 15:44 | 22k buys/11k sells today: and the price drops 4%. You couldn’t make it up! R. | retsius | |
18/3/2023 08:05 | Credit conditions are tightening. STB having that cash means they are ready. The rest comes down to risk management. There will be no lack of demand imho. I rate him as CEO. Worse places to park cash. | p1nkfish | |
18/3/2023 07:17 | More good news yesterday with the buy back of the Tier 2 bonds. "We are pleased to have completed the bond refinancing and expansion of our capital base. With our enlarged regulatory capital base, we are strongly positioned to continue to help consumers and businesses fulfil their ambitions and to scale our business." A confident statement from the CEO David McCreadie. Doesn't sound like a bank in trouble or with any links to SVB. | cfro | |
17/3/2023 11:29 | They have funding in place, they have their own channels to market, that market will ebb and flow but is not going away. I think most of their fate is in their own hands. As credit dries up (it is happening even with the big banks, lending criteria tightening) credit costs rise and thats profit to STB. They don't need to rule the world, just have cash available at a profitable margin. They now do and the price of that capital is fixed to STB but rising to their target markets. Do I have it wrong? That 13% for the £90M doesn't look too high. They landed it at a good time to do so. Lucky? | p1nkfish | |
17/3/2023 11:17 | I want to believe you p1nk. But I don't think you can ignore the contagion risk from a share price perspective. Obviously if we have a major run / meltdown, it will affect all financial companies (some more than others). But the entire banking sector will be on watch until things normalise. I think you're right in that it will recover and march onwards but I highly doubt it will de-couple from events taking place across the pond. I could be wrong. | catabrit | |
15/3/2023 21:26 | Saudis have a regulatory limit it seems. Initially I thought SNB stood for Swiss National Bank and I DID get worried. STB held up well initially (often the case) and I did sell some around 800p to buy heavily sold stuff. Sadly the oversold stuff kept going down so I'm barely better off. As usual I should sell for cash initially. Then I potentially could have bought back below 730p. Big question is how will it respond to full year results. | apple53 | |
15/3/2023 19:00 | STB tarred with the same brush but different target market, management, etc. etc. To be expected. Will recover and march onwards. | p1nkfish | |
15/3/2023 18:25 | Total meltdown in markets. Good taken down with the not so good. STB’s prudent banking credentials totally ignored. Credit Suisse : what a shambles, no wonder the Saudi’s no longer want to support the company. Aimho. | retsius | |
07/3/2023 19:04 | Thanks to Spob on the VAL thread. (Excerpted from Lord Lee of Trafford in the FT) Secure Trust is a classic example where I believe the market has failed to appreciate its very conservative approach to lending — I bought as low as 650p having paid over £12 last April. The asset value has to be around that latter figure and the 6 per cent yield is likely well covered. There has since been a limited recovery to 750p at the time of writing. -------------------- | brucie5 | |
06/3/2023 20:42 | O /t, Tsco and weir look interesting. | p1nkfish | |
06/3/2023 20:11 | Thats a big question Brucie. I use weeklies with MACD Cross as #1, Coppock close and scan for consolidation above the EMA 20 line for at least 5 weeks then a breakout above the Donchian channel. Look for a Donchian H-L of about 5% during consilidation. Ideally breakout at higher than average volume. Nothing in the UK met the scan for the past 2 weeks. STB, EPWN. I don't hold many stocks, about 16 at max but currently at 20 and looking to reduce that number. When it works it works very well but fussy so can be a while before anything comes into view and if it looks good will go in large, have done that with STB. Todays breakout was text book and the stab at timing it worked too. | p1nkfish | |
06/3/2023 17:43 | Thanks pinkish. Glad you agree with Gama. Dotd needs to break over the £ level again, but when it moves, moves fast. 1.20 initial target, but one to hold beyond that. Likewise Gama. What else on your scanner, please, and what signals do you use? | brucie5 | |
06/3/2023 17:26 | GAMA looks like it could run, less enamoured by DOTD. I won't take part in either, using my own scanner to find opps, so far so good, neither turned up on its radar. GAMA does look very interesting with a moce towards 1263 possible and motoring well thereafter. Don't know when by though. Good luck with both. | p1nkfish | |
06/3/2023 17:07 | Pinkfish, assuming that you like charts, you may wish to take a look at GAMA and DOTD. | brucie5 | |
06/3/2023 16:25 | Just the start imho. Dates lined up. Lovely. | p1nkfish | |
06/3/2023 14:03 | Certainly are. One of those instructive, if fortuitous examples of finding a stock with a generous dividend, an oversold share price and a gap to fill. And thereafter, simply waiting for the market to catch up. | brucie5 | |
06/3/2023 13:31 | We are looking good. | catabrit | |
01/3/2023 08:47 | 16th March at the latest if the idea plays out. So 2nd-16th March to confirm. 4th & 11th closes worth watching, price & vol. | p1nkfish | |
01/3/2023 08:35 | There is a difference between a Friday close and every other session. If last night says anything it's the difference between the days that highlights it. Interesting to watch. Still stand by post 446 on 9th Feb (for now), so by March 9th??? | p1nkfish | |
28/2/2023 21:47 | Painting the tape the other way today? 770 was 3 shares. 759 1307 at 3pm, but the big trades of the day were at 728 and 738. | apple53 |
