Have got some spare ISA cash, having bailed out of CHTR recently. Can't decide whether to put it into SMG or RNO or SPT! Answers on a postcard please!

The stock definitely looks well in play now tho - reckon there has top be news in the offing some time pretty soon.

If a bid is seriously on the cards then it must come pretty soon because the share price is heading for 1oop with or without one.

[iandippie] 20/2/2007 11:26

CR? Was that your 10 million purchase ?

[acornoptical] 20/2/2007 11:23

i read sometime back itv were interested in smg they already have 17% and the
utv was originaly a merger plus premium deal but when share price fell it was
a nill premium

[acornoptical] 20/2/2007 11:17

do hanover have a web site cos all i can find is an article on them regarding
elementis

[cockneyrebel] 20/2/2007 11:15

Breaking out - above the recent small high - go through 70p and these should motor imo.

Is a bid on here now? UTV or someone else?

[cockneyrebel] 20/2/2007 11:12

The large trades are cross trades but you'd expect that fund to fund if something was going on imo - it's the price - 7op.

That 196K @ 70p isn't a cross trade tho - it's a straight buy.

[acornoptical] 20/2/2007 11:06

news on utv or is this off now

[cockneyrebel] 20/2/2007 10:58

[gswredland] 19/2/2007 13:34

Chart does seem to be looking horny ..

[cockneyrebel] 19/2/2007 12:10

Next leg up on the way then a full blown breakout beckons :-)

CR

[martest] 19/2/2007 12:03

A nice small rise in share price .More to come no doubt soon.Bought 20,000 early this morning ,not shown up yet.It will appear as a sell but is a buy at 65.good luck

[cockneyrebel] 16/2/2007 15:12

yep, which is another plus :-)

I think you're right Acornoptical.

If there's a sum of the parts valuation here that's a lot higher than the whole then Hanover will flush it out imo. I personally think Hanover will get directors on board to run it. Fidelity wanted to sack the Chairman but the board threatened to resign en-masse. I think Fidelity will call the board's bluff when they have gys there to put in place if the board resigns now.


I'm sure it won't be long till there's more news coming out of here.

itv have 17% fidelity 15% hanover 7%? no news on merger with utv will one of
the large shareholders try and buy the others out? i have thought for sometime
that this company is worth more if the parts were sold seperatley what do you
think steve harley ??

[theo13] 15/2/2007 12:34

Thanks again for further info CR & darlocst ;O)

[cockneyrebel] 15/2/2007 12:15

Fidelity have been adding, now up to 15% nearly.

I use the advfn portfolio feature (version 1 I think), add all the stocks I want prices for in there and then import the webpage via the Data-Get External Data feature in Excel (the minimum refresh time is once a minute - so not quite real-time). I then use a vlookup function to bring the bid price into the list of my positions.
