I agree with you that is why I bought BLT recently over RIO

All we need now is for reinstatement of the dividend

As far as I am awqare they have not announced their date for Ex-dividnd yet. Last year it was 28/3 so I guess we can assume it will be around this date for 2013

I sold out a week or so ago and took a 17% profit as it hit my fair value price. If the price drops back down to below 80 I will buy back in.

You are a lucky man if all of your holdings are up. I still have a couple of dogs in the aim market, but I guess overall my portfolios have made significant advances this year so overall I am very happy. Just have to hope they develop a railway in Mozambique and strike oil in Bermuda in the New Year then I will be in your situation :) Merry Christmas!

The NAV is still on a slow upward trend which means the funds are increasing therefore the share price will slowly rise - llooking good for a slow upward march

Hawka1 the NAV as published today is 82.67 so actually we are trading just below NAV which is about what you would expect for this type of stock

They are doing OK. Im 8% up on my entry price but still holding. The Chinese economic forcasts are looking good so as long as you still have faith in Anthony Bolton!

It has just been announced that the deal has been called off thank heavens.

Thanks for the info

Been watching them for a while now and took the plunge first thing this morning so already up on my initial investment, although thats not really important as I see SHFT as a long term. Is the August dividend the interim? which I guess has been held at 2.4p?

Worry about Chinese hard landing or property bubble?

The Board of Fidelity China Special Situations is pleased to confirm that Anthony Bolton has decided to extend his minimum tenure as Portfolio Manager from April 2013 until April 2014." Hopefully the share price will head North now

I have also just topped up with my ISA allowance. I think the price is a definate buy, but I intend to stach awaqy for the long term and collect the dividends

Did you see this article - an interesting take - hopefully Anthony Bolton will stay on past 2013 http://www.fool.co.uk/news/investing/2012/02/23/anthony-bolton-on-his-china-fund-what-went-wrong.aspx

Seems to be stabilising mid 80s

we are looking good and heading towards the mid 80s. I think I told you a while back that the Chinese property crash was overrated :). I think these shares will come good for you sooner than I predicted with luck I am happy today one of my small Biotechs (Summit) is up 40% so far on the day - a bit further and I will top skim some profit :)

This is good still hovering around low 80s. a slight dip yesterday but back over 80 today. But volumes staying high compared to sell volumes.

I was thinking of a sustainable 80s. although this seems to be holding well. still a lot more buys than sells. I am happy if this share progresses ahead of my projections. You are very lucky if you have everything in your folder at a positive. I still have a couple of dogs. But hopefully things are getting better.

Not too many in my protfolio apart from BP which I bought after the disaster and am now 15% up. I hold Serica energy on the basis of the Namibia wells but has not really performed for me so far. My watch list includes Aminex but again this has not moved vary much. and Gulf Keystone which has risen but I decided not to buy and still not sure about it. So I dont have a good track record with oilers
