I'm not clever enough to be a trader. I just look out for stocks with a dividend that have fallen too far. Doesn't happen often, but this is a perfect example. The market always overdoes the fall and it was a perfect day for shorting oil stocks so it made the fall even steeper. Sooner or later the shorts will come off and this will rise to about £1.80 - the same price as the directors bought at - and I will be happy with that and more. This has a dividend and the potential for capital gain...hen's teeth.
since the news of renewed interest from Oberthur a few weeks ago. I never buy shares on the strength of tateover alone, but I've been all over the results and it seems to me there's a good chance that this is going to surprise on the upside. I rate Marthin Sutherland and I think his presence on the board makes this cheap. If Oberthur is going to move it'll have to be soon or this will get away from them. I've been looking at their operation too and they've made the mistake of being too digital. They now need DLaR more than DLaR needs them. Tempus observed last year that Oberthur would be smart to wait to see which way the Bank of England contract went. DLaR won that one. There's new life in this old dog - just look at the website. Add to the mix Oberthur's ability to borrow cheaply in euros and I reckon they will have to move or their business will be in trouble. Well, that's my take on it anyway so I've gought in at 541ish.
