Hi Ben, long time no hear, I hope you're well.

I started a thread on ADVFN to discuss value shares mainly. I haven't seen you over there but if you'd like to take a look the ticker is VALUE. There's some smart investors using it and so far it hasn't been ruined by idiots. I'm not a bluey so I can only do so much but you're very welcome there.

Its how we as private investors can try to apply pressure, I agree anything below 70p per share would be crazy, so we are dealing with massive undervaluation.....

If some bigger fund manager was to put investors out of their misery, here, at 50p, it would be an absolute steal. The problem is that Mr. Hua Min Lim would want more I imagine.

Hi all

It's nice to see some value investors here. I think we all agree that this is cheap, now all we have to do is accumulate whilst it remains so and wait for the value to out, hopefully in a trade sale/takeover for a whopping premium.

Results in 3 weeks? bid news perhaps?

Look at all those buys by Bailey. Look at how the share price just takes any selling on the chin (where a buyer soaks them up imo.

Bailey is regared as a shrewd investor (have a read on Citywire) so it's interesting that the best place he can find for his onw money is WCW shares imo.

Not long to go.

From the Telegraph:

Walker Crips Weddle Beck

Shares in Walker Crips Weddle Beck have surged by 44 per cent to 242.5p since February 11, when the stockbroking and fund management group announced it was buying G&E Investment Services, a fund manager and pensions advisory business, for up to £2.8m.

Despite the shares rising to a four-year high, on February 15 Stephen Bailey, the investment director, snapped up 10,000 shares at 216p. Just four days earlier he bought a total of 33,000 shares at between 172p and 194p. The deal comes after Walker Crips announced in December that pre-tax profits in the first half of the year had increased by almost 30 per cent. It has a market value of just £25m and the shares are relatively tightly held. The recent price rise looks steep and investors should steer clear.

---------------

Now call me a sceptic but I read this all the way through and then the last sentence just doesn't fit with the rest. I don't believe an investment director buys a further 10K at 216p with a view that these are just going up 10% myself.

And what the story doesn't say is that despite the 30% profit increase in H1 they add:

"The second half of the current year has started strongly and I
can report that stockbroking volumes have been particularly buoyant since early
September. Your board is confident of capitalising on the strong start in the
second half. We are also committed to growing our recurring revenue stream
through both the fund management and financial services divisions. The success
enjoyed by the corporate finance division in the first half of the year looks
set to be repeated in the current six month period. We look forward to reporting
another strong set of results for the full year."

I'll take more on the cheap if anyone wants to sell me them lower than this.
