Then what?! ;-)
Wrong link in my last post - sorry! Correct one: http://www.whatinvestment.co.uk/fevertree-shares-plenty-growth-come-2553587/
Alan Rowsell, who runs the high-performing Standard Life Global Smaller Companies Fund, has endorsed Fever Tree in a very brief, not particularly insightful article on WhatInvestment. FeverTree is the third largest holding in their Smaller Companies Fund and he believes the company could have further to run as it has only really taken a very small market share. I think this is something we all know and it will potentially provide good long-term growth, good to see that view is shared by some fund managers. http://www.whatinvestment.co.uk/no-threat-hsbc-dividend-following-latest-results-2553582/
RST and JHD .... You're just trying to tease me back in!! Have a great weekend Dar. I always enjoy your input on this site.
This is definitely due some "churn". If I had held this since (or soon after the IPO) I would be selling part of or all of my holding and redistributing the cash into income yielding shares. I still think FEVR has a way to go, but it had to pause sometime and this time may be now.
Good morning Felixfelicis, Actually, please allow me to correct your observation on WTG, I do not hold shares in WTG (formerly Quindell) I belong to an investment club that do still hold, so I have an interest. Most of my portfolio is in FTSE 100 & FTSE 250 and are dividend paying companies, I have about 5% of my portfolio in AIM but I invest in bigger companies than WTG - with a trading history and pay a dividend, as you say not life changing, like you I have worked for many years too lose to much to quickly. For your interest the companies within the AIM I currently have an interest is :- Restore RST James Halstead JHD The monies I made from Fevertree is "parked" awaiting investment. ATB
I know you are in WTG also Dar (or used to be). Stop losses on AIM don't always work as well as you may expect. Ask the QPP boys that were in when the 'report' was published! For me I am now looking at energy companies for decent Divi and a relatively safe bet. I used to enjoy the research and having a punt but I am not as good as the Pro's and my funds have outperformed anything I ever managed with the exception of QPP (I was very lucky that I got in very early and managed to top slice before the bang!). I've worked too hard and long to lose big money. I will have a punt from time to time but it will be with pocket money - Nothing life-changing. GLA
Day two was called Fevertree Race Day two
I wish, Nice week for the Fevertree team!
I expect Antigua is fantastic at this time of year plus the sailing week will be well attended. Are we invited lol
Currently sponsoring Antigua Sailing week, nice exposure on each of the marker Buoys
I haven't sold much but as I watch on a daily basis and use stop losses (where I consider problematical). For the time being I intended to hold, however I will say a higher % of personal portfolio is in blue chip companies, so if they "tank" I will be reasonably comfortably that these blue chip companies will bounce back. With regards to AIM companies I do tend to sell on the basis of ---- see a profit so take a profit. With regards to Fevertree it is a sound company and will remain on my watchlist, so I felt the price was reasonable I may very well buy again. DYOR ATB DAR-
Hey guys - I am just a little nervous that the market may be in for turbulent times so I have sold most of the shares I hold that are in profit and a few that are underwater. The rest are either bottom drawer or I have so little in them that I am not going to be broken hearted if they tank. I am no expert at this game so please don't use my decision to influence you. I have been bitten once before and am now of the mindset that there is no such thing as a bad profit!
Hope you are buying into Shell with the profits 7% yield now!
SP seems to have hit resistance at £16.50 so have sold out for the time being. If Jan-Mar figures beat mkt expectations then SP should continue its rise beyond forecast £17. Still an excellent product range! ;-))
All the best to you Felix and Dar, it has had a cracking run. I think I will wait for the divi before considering the situation again - hopefully it doesn't tank this month! lol
I too have sold fevertree, excellent profit, IMO a ceiling has been reached and FEVR has run out of steam or paused for breath. I felt it was time to take a profit. Regards DAR-
Do you feel that it has reached it peak? Or did you simply need the cash freed up? Big holiday in the Bahamas given the growth FEVR has given us, perhaps?
Good luck to all who remain. It's been a great share to be involved in.
SP soaking up the sells well. Perhaps another institution reducing-or a wealthy PI dumping £480k!
Many thanks, what I certainly have on my side is the time to take a long-term position and no amount of money can buy you that! I have definitely noticed that many people on these forums, although no so much in the FEVR threat, are extremely blinkered when it comes to their holdings. They are mad and entirely blind to the bigger picture - many people like this on the SXX Sirius chat. That said, you find a few golden and informative posts here and there that makes reading through worthwhile! All the best, Chris
Well I rather be 22 again than have a little extra in the bank... and don't believe everything you read on here - so many are keen to say when they buy .. but not when they sell... I am sure if you are going to hold these for a number of years you will be rewarded but always good to have an exit price imho - especially with so many opportunities out there gl
If my holding were larger I too would be shedding a few shares at the moment as things are quite lofty. Sadly as I am only 22 I'm not playing with big sums here and what with the impact of fees it gives me little room to buy/sell actively without taking a fair chunk out of the value. One day I hope to be playing with the 6 figure sums I see mentioned on this board!!
Decided to sell a large part of my holding here - the rest are now "freebies".. just think the share price has over reached itself and if there is a stock market correction at some point (high inflation low wage growth) then shares like Fevertree which are near all time highs might be effected the most - probably see £20 now lol. (o/t I am doing well with BIOM - have a look sometime GLA)
