The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Me thinks that JPR will survive with AH, I could say unfortunately but that would be cruel and I don't mean to be, buying the i was a stroke of genius, all the work getting the company into digital age all the redundancies etc that was needed yes right time right place etc but it's time for him to move on and let fresh hands turn the tiller. All the chat about Scandinavian interlopers can only be good, 5% holding can't achieve zilch but with CA in the loop, transforming but it will need majors (shareholders) to pile in and that's where the problem lies, it seems they are happy to watch it seems and let themselves be perceived as dolts instead of being proactive for their clients pensions or whatever they are meant to be achieving with their holding in JPR. To me if JPR can make the case to enable better funding for the next 4 years (yes that's easily said) by demonstrating that it is no basket case, look at TNI's debt and separate the national from the regional profits, JPR does generate loads of cash and as such will continue to attract vultures.
Do you follow JPR on advfn maybe not comment but read Generally mostly genuine comments and well resourced.
Silvergreyhead try to keep on jpr
Gazman it wasn't their offices they only rent the owner sold the building with JPR as tenants.
The only rent part of the building its not theirs.
Yes I've looked at the detail in the press gazette ss seems you were a bit picky indeed very picky in the ABC stats you used, not well balanced, take a look at ADVFN 's BB on JP in lessons in how to be better at it.
Sorry I meant fully paid rights
At the moment my nil paids are fixed @ 3.6p the ord shares are trading 4.02 when the nils start trading will the price match the ord shares or meet in the middle between the two. Any advice would be good thanks
Am I right in thinking that dealing will take place of nil paid rights on 29th May should give an indication of whether it's worth taking up or at least how many to take up. I can only say it's seems an expensive option if you have limited cash in an ISA /Sipp and reasonably large shareholding.
Thanks every one but i'm still not totally clear ... so with 100k shares x3p to pay = £3k ...i receive 60k +/- shares but really 6k so in total i end up with 106k +/- sorry I'm being so thick !
So if we have at the moment 100,000 shares, take up all our rights we have to pay how much? and in so doing how many shares will we receive ?
Yes agree LSE is the better site, has any one here posted on advfn some interesting thoughts there too, I personally believe the price will rise and substantially crikey all assets and no real debt in a rising property market ! what more could you ask.
Kenstaff I've been following your posts recently and it is interesting to read that Cres could have the potential to consolidate ownership and operational control of Harworth ; What time scale could be applied for that to be a real option and would it not suggest that keeping the SP as low as possible be an advantage in the short to med term.
