The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Aye you are probably right
Volume has dried up to a trickle these days, with around half the daily volume being done in the closing auction. (in the absence of the occasional lumpy large trade that goes through)
Blimey....the ADVFN board was completely trashed today by the arrival of 3 or 4 foul mouthed lunatics prophessiing to be in the know etc etc
Very quickly got the filter button treatment, but wonder why they picked today....that board is normally pretty quiet
Well we need some kind of trigger to jerk us out of this perpetual malaise. We have effectively gone nowhere for the last six and a half months
Yes probably down to the EPL, but who can honestly see the clowns in charge giving up a cash cow?
Been invested here a long time but even Im contemplating cutting my losses. Especially when a rare market good day completely passes us by
Only because they have contracted the wideish spread by dropping the offer
Bid price is the same as yesterdays close, which considering gold took a dip yesterday PM is not a bad result
My arent you a sarcy sod....
Mike doesnt want M&A now for the sake of it, but considering how long Linda and Co have been banging on about opportunities, its not unreasonable to bring it up.
How about we just ignore each other eh....I cant hope to be as perfect as you
I know mate....was only messing :)
Shame it couldnt hold 11.2 on bid, but I presume there was only 1 MM bidding that, and they got fed up.....anyone with L2 confirm?
We are seeing true volumes now the buyback isnt around to distort matters, and they arent exactly huge are they?
The EPL has sucked the life out of Harbor, and managements failure to deliver any overseas M&A doesnt inspire confidence either.
Hopefully the impending trading update may inject some life.....
Well considering ther divi is .1p I would hope it doesnt fall 0.2p to reflect it :)
Although this a gold stock so you never know lol
Not sure that going xd for a less than 1% yield divi, will have much effect, but are MMs trying to dampen down trade with an abnormally wide headline spread?
I know the real spread will be much narrower, but 10.80 - 11.50 is not what we would normally see, and could be enough to put off casual PIs
Still invested but nothing much really to say now buybacks have ended
HBR Investor Relations seem to be on permanent holiday, so updates from the company (aside from statutory results) are almost non-existent
Oh well we always have that pipeline of M&A to fall back on lol
Now down 10.4p on the bid compared to Friday's close
This on a day when Brent is only off what? A dollar and a half? HBR seems to be following the overall market rather than anything linked to its likely trading
Blimey this board has died a sudden death recently....do we miss Taconic and the buybacks that much lol?
Harbor manages to finish lower on a week that saw Brent rise to over $92 a barrel....I just love being in such a popular share!
Blimey thats a messy closing UT trade nearly 2p below the closing bid price - needless to say that makes us close red for the day
Why shares had to be dumped at a crap price in the auction, when Brent and markets arent doing anything too horrible after close is anybodys guess
Bear in mind tomorrow that if you see the headline price +2p we will really be only back to unchanged on today's 4:30 close
Chokes on its own apathy more like....
What could be a spark to get the share price rising, coz it sure isnt these endless discussions about motor manfacturers we have on here (no offence internded - research is appreciated)
My god I hope there comes a time where SEE is strong enough to see itself listed on NASDAQ rather than the lower reaches of UK listings
Been out all day, and when I saw Brent & UK Gas prices today I fully expected to see HBR having one of its really good days
Instead we are struggling to rise a couple of pennies on truly pitiful volume of less than 500k
Is 260 really proving ultra tough resistance or are events in the Middle East overshadowing everything at the moment?
