AFF Member Stock Discussion

[Flashback]

My friend still holds his Austal shares. He has lots. We sold ours.
We have Veem which is a supplier to Austal.
Twiggy has Austal too.
Gosh AFF in London in 2013 with you @ncm and @Flashback ….such a memory. Mrscove loves London so we will keep going there.

Mrs FB is happy to hear that!

We went to hear Phil King from Regal Funds discuss business. Shortly after that Regal got smashed with one of their investments failing. When RPL and RF1 tanked we bought both. We were surprised how quickly those two jumped back up.

I also bought at the bottom when you mentioned RPL

Well @Quickstatus it is always nice to get a winner.
Also bought Digico which is DGT a couple of weeks ago and they jumped too.
We are mostly packed for our US trip so it should be fun.

GMG seems expensive
share price/net tangible assets per share = 3x

Is there a looming bubble in the Datacentre space?

 

[cove]

Goodman is quite debt adverse compared with CharterHall ,Centuria and others. Goodman raised $4 billion at $33.50 and their share price got swamped with sellers. It will take time to invest that amount of funds in data centres and other real estate.
There would be easier shares to buy.

Yes, net gearing 11% last year

Have bought a few ACQ as they are assets at a discount. Nothing special but a reliable dividend.

 

[Quickstatus]

ACQ EPS 2c but dividend 5.5c??

ACQ had a tough first half but going ok as a tiddler. It is pretty small.
Have just caught up on the bad news for NWH which is NRW. They appear to be getting stiffed on $113 million debtor with the Whyalla steel mill group based on some government moves. Not nice for NWH so the stock took a hit this morning.
Aspen have announced a placement and share purchase plan at $2.90. We have 5 holdings in APZ.
Gave up on Tyro which is TYR. They need to hire someone who knows how to make profits.
The Four Corners program about Bunnings had no affect on Wesfarmers shares as they have gone up.

Friday in Australia was an amazing day for us on the ASX.
Lucapa Diamond which is LOM look like they are in deep trouble.
We are back out of trouble with IPH and Whitehaven Coal which have both jumped.
I still like IPH and Whitehaven Coal but both have share buybacks running.
With the US losing their AAA status from Moodys next week should be interesting.

What has happened to Lucapa? I haven't been following them but know that they were successfully mining big diamonds in Angola

We could be in for another wild few days depending on how the market reacts to the Moody's downgrading.
