    Nnw.ax Chinese company just floated on Australian stock market. Ecommerce on mobile phones.

    Also, I bought fnp.ax 10 months ago, up over 300% now. They just launched in America this year, pulled back a bit lately but is a good time possibly for some people to hop on board.

    As you might guess I live in Oz.

    Good Gain!:P

    It might be interesting to share some details (from your newsletter?) of where you have invested or when we will read some your nominations (blog?)?

    I actually have a monthly newsletter:

    http://www.market-swings.com/

    That one is a subscription newsletter but if you download the free eBook you will also receive a periodic free email detailing a cheap share.

    Fwiw the newsletter portfolio shows an average current gain of around 35%.

    I tend to concentrate very much on fundamental value.

    I will certainly take a look and would share your rational on selection criteria.

    Hi Sonnenblumen,

    My main criteria is value. If a private investor can buy the whole company for a large discount to actual value then the company could be a good buy.

    I like sub net working capital stocks but also use 5 yr av p/e, sector multiples etc.

    The best way to invest is to find shares trading at a discount to present value. I am not one to invest in a company because earnings in five years are likely to be X because of Y or Z.

    I am certainly one to look for a good balance sheet too.

    I like your investing style, kind of warren buffet like and judging by your book you a big fan

    question-does a website exist where you can look up those historical ratios you mention above for a company or do you have to thrall through company accounts to get them ?

    Tesla sold only 5500 cars last quarter. There is probably a lot of value shorting this over the next year. Closed 176 today. Target south of 120.

    down $30 in 2 days. Nice tidy sum made. I think I will take some profit. I can see this stock drifting below $100 over the next year unless it manages to pull something out of the bag. Poor sales and a huge cash burn don't leave me with a lot of confidence in the stock.

    I think he means for 2013, which would be more than possible considering the market is up 20 - 25%

    Twitter was good value this morning :pac:$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

    Sorry for for not making myself clear.

    The average gain on shares sold since the start of the portfolio, in 2012, is around 35%.

    I received a new testimonial last night from a newsletter subscriber who doubled their portfolio since April, 2012. It's on the home page. ;)

    A great website for historical P/E's and forecasted earnings is http://www.Digitallook.com

    Hope that helps. :)

    There are plenty of stocks up well over 100% within last 12 months and many with 300% in 3 years.

    Yes this is true, everybody can claim their portfolio is up 35%.. I don't believe anyone unless they can verify their trades

    My trades are verified through my subscription newsletter.

    I send an email out to my subscribers as soon as the virtual trade is made. That way they know that I am not rigging the portfolio in any way.

    The 35% excludes dividends as well as trading costs so the figure should actually be higher. :cool:

    Sounds impressive buddy but verifying trades through your subscription newsletter doesn't cut the mustard.. Join covestor or profit.ly to verfiy your trades

    Of course it does

    He's buying stocks and telling his subscribers on the same day.

    Whether it goes up or down he's laid his cards on the table openly before the SP moves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 337 ✭✭Value Hunter


    Also the markets are up about 40% from the January 2012

    Actually it would be reasonable rather than impressive, given the general trend in equities over the last few years...

    Why don't you post some of your stock suggestions?

    Be much more constructive than pointing out other peoples flaws/shortcoming in your posts.........

    Here's one of mine:

    Niabu Global (NBU.L)

    First the bad stuff: It's Chinese (half the readers just left), it's a relatively new float (the other readers left), it's a small cap (m.cap +-£50m)...........

    However if it does what it says on the tin the price should double or more.

    Share price trades currently at around 86p which is about half of net working capital. Cash alone makes up about 70p of the share price.

    The company is in expansion mode establishing new shops, overhauling old ones, adding new production lines etc therefore the company is currently generating negative free cash flow.

    It makes a load of profits though and is currently trading on a P/E of around 1.4 and sports a well covered 8% dividend.

    I usually avoid chinese shares like the plague but this one looks very interesting.

    Do your own research of course.

    Very happy to see a good recovery in SP almost back to 2008 level. I'm seriously considering bailing out as it nears € 10.50/ € 11.0 range.

    Any views on reasons behind Abbey's dramatic SP recovery especially within last 12 months?

    Does the pull of National Grid offer better SP growth prospects which also pays a great divi (Yield 5.27%) in comparison to Abbey's lousy ( Yield 0.78%) divi which is now pushing me out ?

    Great stuff i'll give it a look, Chinese would throw me right off though

    Google "chinese accounting frauds / scandals" and that would put you off ever investing in a Chinese company. Don't be racist in person or life but you have to be racist in trading
