Many thanks for the info - looks a good offer. Anyone know how easy it is to deal shares in Finnish stocks?
Can anyone please tell me where I can find the current price of Ruukki Group? Sorry if it is a silly question - I'm a newbie and have just received a letter advising that there is a proposal to get 1 new share in Ruukki Group for every 1.81 in SLV - thanks
Thanks - was just starting to sweat a little..!
know why the value of RAB in my portfolio (in LSE) is showing as £0!! is there something I should know?!! slightly worrying!
if you register with ADVFN, you can check it under TPKN - probably can find it on most sites with those initials (apart from this one!!)
Thanks for the info
strangely enough, following on from my last post, the price of 176p for the RI + the price of the TPK shares after the drop today (545p) = 721p which is roughly what they were trading at before today. so perhaps you can sell on your rights...? anyone illuminate?
I've got an account with the share centre and they've opened a new line re the RI but given a bid price of 176 to the rights issue shares - does that mean that you can sell your rights if you don't want to take them up? sorry if this is a silly question!
as I understand it - you get 1 new FP share for each existing one you hold plus as they are 'demerging' F & C Asset company from their business, you are entitled to 1 F & C share for every 10 FP shares you hold. However, you have to let them know if you want to hold onto these F & C shares, if not they will sell them on your behalf and send you the proceeds. The form which you need to send back if you want the F & C shareholding came with the notice of General Meeting/voting slip etc.. (hope I'm not giving you duff info!)
Thanks for your reply- yes it's one of my less risky investments that I'm going to hang on to. It just seemed strange that there were transactions after the stock exchange close... Think it'll take me quite some time to get to know about all the little anomalies of the stock market!!
butt away! I need all the help I can get - lol! Thanks for your help - much appreciated. That's why I like these bbs - there are a lot of helpful folk about.
possibly a silly question, but why would a £2.1 million purchase today not affect the share price... It went thru at 16.35 which is strange as I thought the stock exchange closed at 16.30. Sorry if these are dumb questions (I am a newbie!)
you are so right, lol! any online dealers you could recommend? Thanks
At 9.57am today, I bought 9615 of these at 5.2. So what? you may ask! But at 9.52am someone bought 6696 at 5.02 and at 10.04am, someone bough 2500 at 5.01. Am I just unlucky? or is it because I deal thru the Share Centre or am I just paranoid!? This is actually the second time this has happened to me...! I know that amount involved is hardly worth considering but it's the principal of the thing, dammit!!
at 5.2p. Thanks to all for info posted - very helpful
Thanks guys - I think I'll do a bit more research on this one because it looks like it's got good potential.
thanks - on reflection, that was a pretty dumb question I asked!!
Sorry if this has been explained before but can you please expand on how the 'KAH shareholding is worth 6.2p per share alone here'? Thanks - I am a newbie so please be gentle...!
know why there is such a big spread on this share?
