Good show.

I'm sitting at 8% up YTD - mainly due to non performance of FBR and MTA thus far this year (which is 40% of my portfolio)

Glencore today announces a share buy back rather than a special dividend. Should see a little drop as divi hunters are disappointed.

Rather a jumbled bag given the Xstrata merger. 

With Glassenberg having full control now me thinks this is a keeper & will get more should it have a marked down turn.

SPG brilliant!!

 

Bought at 60c a few years ago,,,,ten to one consolidation  ; = R6.00

 

today +R31.00!!!  go u good thing!!!

[HDB]

steer clear..better options out there than VIL and even more so if wanting a longer term punt but good luck eitherway

way to go... We including me all went through that when we/I first started..

 

had VIL , Mor etc in my portfolio...what a waste... stick to top 100 and u wont go wrong!!

Thanks for the feedback guys, I really do appreciate it as I have no experience in the LT department

 

I agree, VIL is a dodgy pick. Their last 2 quarterly updates were what made me decide to choose it (they seem to be improving...)

 

So am I perhaps going about it wrong by trying to pick small/mid caps for my portfolio? Would it make more sense to stick with the tried -and-tested blue chips then?

VIL: I have hope of a recovery to 100c+ if they manage to sell their underperforming assets (Cons Murch, etc) and it should be noted that the market cap is only a fraction of the value of Tau. But again, the value will only be realised if management gets themselves in gear....

I hope not  They aren't a large part of the total amount I have invested in the JSE, so one or two going bust is not a too big thing (though definitely not what I ideally want!)

RSG: If they can get the rest of their financing sorted, we will see a jump in share price quite quickly. Once (/if) production starts I would expect RSG to perform really well (scheduled for June 2016, hopefully no more delays...)

too many "Ifs" Yussuf!!!

 

That's a bad sign for investing with thse smaller caps.... They more prone to fail than survive with the Ifs!!

[yusufm]

well you own 2 duds of the JSE...Long term they may be bust and gone!!!

Don't know much of RSG but Village passop.....!! Those directors are in it for what they can get out AT shareholder expense if it comes to that.

There's better prospects than VIL or JBL type for 10 baggers.

I'm looking at ARB for long....long term 

[HDB]

My LT portfolio (newly started):

 

RSG 

VIL

 

Will look to add another company every 6 months (which will by large be small/mid caps).

 

I know it's a risky portfolio considering it is for the long term, but I am still very far from retirement age (hopefully not too far ) and my reasoning is that I would just need one of these to pay off in a big way to cover any losses incurred on the others.

 

What do you guys think?

I want to re adjust my portfolio but need to ask this;
If I sell today, do I have to wait 7 days before I can use the funds to buy?

Automotive industry in SA shall not have a particularly good run due presently due to general economic unhappiness, so no great shakes locally short term, but a solid company for long term.

For long term, MTA will beat most other stocks. If you have been watching it over the past year, you will see the fundamentals that can only push the price upwards. Foreign exposure with their Turkish acquisition will see this stock as a winner for many years.

My long term portfolio:<br /><br />MTA, ARH, OMN, GPL, OLG, CIL, SOL, ADI

CIL is a momentum stock and will carry on with that trend. I love this stock and will include it with MTA for alpha "must have stocks".
