The woes for vsvs seem more than brutal markets though. Whereas ftse hasnt moved in the last year, vsvs is now down 10%. yet there's no news? Does someone know something perhaps?

No probs Rabbar glad you got the div ok. I hope you are not too badly hit in these brutal markets. Vsvs is one of the few stocks I kept I am tempted to top up but sitting on my hands atm.

Thanks for the reply wipo1, got it on the 26th also but HL puts it into a different account, which I found out when I had a look around on the site.

I got mine on put in holding account on 26th Sep. I Hope you have yours by now Rabbar

Anyone got a dividend payment recently. According to information dividend was payable on the 26th but yet to receive any payment.

no bother mickey.

It is if you include total operations, but I concede if you strip out discontinued operations then the p/e ratio is around 12. By the way its you're not your.

its not on a single pe michael, thats the disadvantages of not researching it as you mentioned. Your very well named! micky mouse indeed.

Cevian buying again. Also saying in press they see a lot of M&A activity this year. Think we will discover cevian's plans for both Vesuvius and Alent this year.

Morgan Stanley back in for a few more 700k, Very good value these, strange not much interest from PI's

[wipo1] 15/5/2014 16:41

I topped up at 447.45p could not resist. Held up very well.

Edit poor timing was only very small amount, Morgan Stanley have bought another 1%

[wipo1] 15/5/2014 10:10

Yes Meijiman good value and decent yield. I recently added at 423p. Will look to add further if it can break 450p.

[meijiman] 15/5/2014 09:53

I think this is good value and moreover will benefit from higher metallurgical activity.
Was sold down on fears on China which have receded.
decent enough IMS which has more positives than negatives.
Nothing greatly changed but the forward earnings multiples are not demanding.

[wipo1] 01/2/2014 20:23

Looks a good time to buy back in.

[kazz] 27/12/2013 15:59

Now stay up there.

[kazz] 23/12/2013 10:47

Maybe this time.

[kazz] 28/11/2013 16:13

Seems difficult to crack the £5 barrier.

[redartbmud] 07/11/2013 21:45

Kazz

Spot on with your assessment at the time. I thoght that Alent would be the growth business. It may well prove to be the case long term.
I sold most of my holding in Vsvs because it seemed toppy, but it just kept going up.

Fortunately Red, i have as many of these as Alent, but at the time of Cookson demerging, I thought Alent may have been the one to have out of the two. Just as well i kept both.

Shell shocked by Alent. I said that it was a better buy around 335p, but even that would appear to be optimistic now.

[kazz] 06/11/2013 16:34

Doing a bit better than Alent, thats for sure.
