oops sorry guys, way out with my hunch. gl all
Oh Well, watch the SP drop, looks like a long wait for it to improve
I guess that if STM have received a buy out offer this must be private until agreed as if the purchaser is on the stock market it effects their share price or prevents a counter offer from another plc but I'm just guessing!!!
At what point are share holders entitled to know what is going on? Do we not have a right to information in this matter?
not in here personally any more, but still show interest. Total hunch but I have a feeling you have a buyer, gl
Im assuming we are all in the dark as to why?
After days of inactivity, finally someone buys 130k shares at 58p...
Great HY results and 15% rise. Have sold half mine at 61.288p, will hold remainder for 70p target. Some good IC coverage should help push these higher. Gla Rich
by Simon Thompson in the Investors Chronicle. Appears to be worth holding for improving results.
Recent results good, hope for some more positive coverage in IC magazine tomorrow...gla Rich
Some big buys this week..
Back in todays Investors Chronicle, ST's column; rated a buy.
Biggest distributor (de vere who's owner used to be STM's largest shareholder) are apparently putting on holdi all SIPP business from non EEA residents until STM's London colonial deal has been approved/signed off. Having a.big affect on their business levels l. Sounds like he retain a serious interest in STM by proxy etc, because there are plenty of alternatives to STM.
Nice increase today into low 40s
Full year results RNS not moved price today. It,will be interesting to see Simon Thompson's view in this weeks Investors Chronicle. Personally I reckon it will gradually move back into early 40's until we get further update on actual impact.
So per the RNS we are talking about 80% of new business from QROPS having the potential to be impacted - note that is potential to be impacted. This should not impact the recurring revenue from the QROPS already in operation. It will take a while to get a fuller / more accurate picture with respect to the actual impact on growth prospects in my opinion. This certainly isn't a cliff edge situation in my opinion. As ever do your own research. Interested to hear others thoughts. In my view this was oversold yesterday.
I agree, only a minority that aren't in the EAA "HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has announced that qualifying recognised overseas pension schemes (Qrops) transfers for individuals not in the European Economic Area (EAA) will be hit with a 25% tax charge." http://citywire.co.uk/new-model-adviser/news/budget-2017-hmrc-introduces-25-tax-charge-on-qrops-transfers/a999002 bought more
Cheap as chips!
The Budget has introduced a 25% tax on QROPS - but supposedly only a minority of transfers will be affected. I took caution as the better part of valour (or whatever the saying is) and sold out at a good profit. STM really need to get a statement out quickly about this: Http://www.telegraph.co.uk/tax/income-tax/budget-2017-means/
more to the point, why the drop ? something in the budget ? not concerned particularly as bought for the long term but intrigued nonetheless
Panic selling provides opportunity. Fortune favours the brave.
I expect these will continue to rise as we get to results next week.
Article in Telegraph today, mentions these shares ...
Price being walked down by market makers despite my buys than sells. Should bounce upwards again soon IMO Gla Rich
