LOL....yep HR, I saw the announcement come through in the cowards hour and I though uh-oh HR is going to lose some dosh.
But low and behold the next day a 10% rise !!!
Well done mate
Tex.
Mate excellent pick on ACU !!
geez we get around
Tex.
yep, it's always the way !! It took me a week to sell 550k at 20c and as I speak the stock has traded 728k at 21c in 1 hour
I have learned to trust my instincts and up until talking to Marcel I felt comfortable holding.
I hope that anyone who is left holding makes a bundle.
P.s. MX, you'll be happy to know I bought a few TLS on the open today at $4.69......ex div is 22-3-04 so I'm ahead already
Tex.
sold my positions in ATX today, and finally closed my position with SNN today as well guys.
Just thought I'd mention it here first.
I have been very keen on SNN but I didn't like a conversation with the CEO last week.
He basicly said he wasn't even aware of the Aussie equities report, and said that there wouldn't be a brokers presentation in February or any other time for that matter.
He also said they would not promote the stock and that they would let the figures do the talking.........well thats all well and good and the stock could go up from here, but I decided to opt out and lock in my profits.
All the best............Tex.
Hi HR, loved the "grey nomads" part.......lol.
Thanks for the stock tips....would have been nice to get into FWD early on.
I'm also running a stock screening programme, you may want to look at it and compare with Comsec.....I'd be interested in your opinion.

Marketscan is the name of the product and you can trial it free for 2 weeks.
Takes a bit to get the hang of it but it's a powerful tool.
Cheers Tex.
Hi MX, Heather says (if only tex was that sweet).
Good on you mate, now I'm in trouble !!!!!!
Sounds like you're doing well mate, good stuff !
I am running a few tests of my own starting Monday, I'm going to play a few Ex-div stocks and see how I go.
I'll report back with my findings, in about 4 weeks.
Are you holding any SNN ?
Not doing much atm, but they should power after the half year report......because thier figures will be updated on most online trading platforms......thus showing a far better PE-NTA and revenue stream.
On top of this they will be doing a brokers presentation this month, as reported in the "aussie equities" report on MXS (prior to becoming SNN).
Still holding AvV and bought back into WOW at $11.61 and $11.50.
Had a bad trade on PPD, but I'm still holding a small parcel....because I think they will be worth heaps in 5-6 weeks.
Also holding a small parcel of ATX, but I'm not real confident after the recent news failed to drive the stock higher.
We might have to compromise and meet up in Melbourne, I'd say that will be my next Capital destination.
All the best..........Tex.
MX I have Marco's email address in the office I'll send it to you on Monday.
Thanks for the kind words optimist, I gotta say I like this bunch as well
Cheers Tex.
Yep still pass through here Ollie, from time to time.
It's one of the few forums where everyone gets along
I think most are posting on asxboard.com now that hotcopper has gone down.
Thanks for the tip on OTT Simon, I'll watch em but first impressions are they look a bit too liquid.
Cheers Tex.
I'n not sure I understand your question Ollie ? as far as I know most companys are not obligated to announce when they release their reports, but they must report between certain dates specified by the ASX
http://www.asx.com.au/statistics/l3/CompanyDisclosure_MS3.shtm#Annual%20report
http://www.asx.com.au/statistics/pdf/CompanyReportingDates2004.pdf
Larger companys do let their announcement dates be know in advance and you can find that info in the business section of most national news papers under the heading "this weeks diary".

It seems the US have a better reporting system, is this what you mean ?
Tex.
Did you guys get any SKG ? I had my sell on the board and got sold out at 7.9c without being in the office, only to watch it go to 9.5c !!!
Nice chart on HIG I'll take a look.
Tex.
Hi flea, I have never traded BDL mate. Sorry for the late reply.
Cheers Tex.
SKG up 7.25% more to come on Feb 2nd
Tex.
Hi Flea..............Me cause trouble ????......lol.....yeah I do manage to raise the hackles of a few posters and Admin at times, thats what you get for calling it how you see it
Mate I've given up predicting what SNN is going to do, all I know is the fundamentals are in place.....so I'll keep holding in hope that the promoting of the stock starts in the near future.
CG says that one of the small fund managers are the recent buyers and are seeking more.
All I know is I'm going to enjoy the rise when it finally comes (fingers crossed).
-------------------------------
Simon, once again well done on VLL, I hope to sell a few stocks and enter soon.
------------------
LMC,HR and Ollie...perhaps the previous spike in volume/price was the inside knowlege that kellerman was getting the bullet ?.....doesn't looked to have paid off though.
Unusual rise today, just goes to show how many punters are flowing into the marketplace.
-----------------------
General punters.........SKG may spike this week on financial news due to be release in the next few days, But there is a seller sitting at 7.1c that wont seem to die.
AUM could have a decent run over the next few months, but I'm finding it hard to get info about the stock.....so wouldn't go in too hard.
Cheers Tex.
Well done Ollie eom.
Hi Flea,
Yeah mate I'm confident we'll see some nice rises over the next few months.....need to get rid of the float overhang first.
AvV also gearing up for another run, but SNN still lagging after ex-div.
Whats going on with the asxboard and ozestocks...I can't get onto either site this morning ?
Tex.
well I know you're a fairly active poster when you get the time, you should get over there.
I still like this place because it's a nice little haven from lunartics
Tex.
Simon whats your views on AvV mate, are you still holding ?
Tex.
Hi mate one spekie and one solid, looks ok to me but you may need some luck
Have you registead on the asx forum ? If so what's your name over there ?
Cheers Tex.
Trade alert HWE..........you might get a nice little profit there Doc
Be careful !
Tex.
You could be right, but I prefer to take profits on stocks that really dont have a sustainable future.
All the best with your decision.
Tex.
INT would have been a good tip yesterday......lol.
I think DEG must be onto something, because it's holding so well.
My problem is, my business is booming and I cant sit infront of the screens atm.
I think I'll start trading again in about 3 months, atm I'm just holding yielders and watching the market as much as I can....it's really powering.
I think I may sell a few shares when the ASX shows signs of slowing but that doesn't look like any time soon.
Tex.
Yep I know I saw the chart, but LOOK and LOK are famous for sucker rallys.
They only people that have done well out of LOK are the ones that have sold on the rallys.
I think it'll have one more run tommorrow, then you'll see a pull back....even if something is up.
Tex.
Now come on Doc, if I find a good one dont I deserve a spotters fee ??
I like to see everyone make money from my tips !
Also notice that 86c is finally gone on SSR......about time.
have you guys seen the new forum, it's very good.
http://www.asxboard.com/index.php?&act=Search&CODE=getactive
Tex.
No news on LOK Ollie, just a solid rally in the U.S. so the punters think something is up.
Personally I'd take the money, but LOK may have a bit more left in it yet.......??
Tex.
TG, put me in for SNN on 1st of Feb please mate........but could you exchange the printer for a carton of beer.....lol.
Just on VCR I think today will be a good trading day, in and out....but be quick !
P.s. I have a stock that I think will do very well, but I need to watch it for a little while and try to accumulate some before the rest of you mugs
Cheers Tex.
HEy HEy LC !! every dog has it's day mate.....what are you going to do ???
P.s. Well done HR......as far as I know you're the only one that went in on a late trade !.........Looksmart is the worlds most addictive stock, the traders just can't leave this baby alone
Tex.
Hi backlash, I hold 517173 shares at an average of approx 16c.
I first got into MXS when they trading at around 3c. Soon after they were consolidated 1:5.
I cant find any info on CAE and I guess one day it'll be hard to find info about MXS
I think 2004 will be a good year for SNN and the overall market.
I'm also holding WOW AvV & SSR.
All the best................Tex.
Congrats to Sartre put me back in on SNN for the printer TG, and thanks for running the comp......very generous of you.
Hope 2004 runs like the last half of 2003 !!
Cheers Tex.
Merry Xmas guys...................Tex is outta here !!!!!!!!!!!
Heres one for you guys, ABC are trading at $1.15.
Boral have just launched a take over bid at $1.55.
Put in a bid at 8% below =$1.42 and see how you go.
Please note you can not place a bid until 11:10 am (pre-open) and trading starts at 11:20.
Tex.
Good post Michael ! eom.
Yes, You can set a price alert or news alert, you can also set a "stop in buy" based on volume or % movement.
The real advantage is getting the news before the rest of the (((GENERAL)))) market, it's money in the bank.
Shareboy is coming to my office tomorrow to have a look at the AOT system, he'll vouch for my contract.
AOT cost approx $1000 a year to run, I made that today
I was lucky in one respect, because I decided to place a bid at 83c.....but it opened at 85c and briefly drifted back, I wasn't even in the office when the order was filled.
now look at the bidders at 84c and 85c, their the slow guys with slow systems
Sorry mate, I'm not going to fly you up......I'm spending a fortune renovating atm.....but I'll shout you,MX,Gulls,and the boys more than a few beers when I get down that way again soon !!
Tex.
If there is any doubt on how effective AOT is, I just picked up $11k worth of SSR at 83c using news alerts this morning.
They are being taken over for 89c, so if you have any spare cash and dont mind small but sweet margins, you can still buy them at 86c.
The only real risk is intervention from the ACCC, but from what I've read it doesn't seem likely.
P.s. LC, Shareboy & myself are having a lazy lunch at the Glen Hotel tomorrow, any other takers ?
Cheer Tex.
Hi TG, unfortunatley for me I'm not going to win the camera.
SNN will be unloading 4-6 million shares over the next week or two and that will keep the lid on the price and may even drive it down.
Can I enter SNN for 1st of Jan next year ?
lol....sooner or later I'm going to crack it
I'm still holding 27015 shares in AvV which is only 172985 shy of Simon.......!!
I'm holding 519490 shares in SNN, so I'm hoping that they will get up after Xmas, I'm looking to add a few more if she slides on these unmarketable shares, I have a 40k bid in at 16c 3rd in line atm.
I'll also be looking at picking up some SKG if it goes below 5.5c, it all depends on how their figures are looking after spending a shite load of the investors newly injected cash.
Certainly one to be careful with.
I'm not trading in small stocks atm, because I'm too busy to trade.
Ollie LOK is looking sick mate, are you going to keep holding ?
I see that they have lost a few other partners and are now starting to lay off employees.......not a good sign mate.
I was intending to trade them around the 15th of December but I'm having second thoughts now.
Is anyone trading AFT ? seems strange that they have not announced any sars testing news, when they were reporting they should know the outcome by end of November ?
I see that no one has replied in regards to the Tex-Shareboy Lunch invite............oh well all the more wine and women for us
P.s. Mick, where abouts are you in Queensland ?
Cheers Tex.
Simon, I think you should read page 13 of the report I posted, I found the "skeletons in the closet" comment very interesting in light of your recent post "gut feeling" about the recent price action.
Today SNN is releasing a large parcel of unmarketable shares on the open market Refer page 11.
This could be a good time to buy, if it's not placed with an insto.
Tex.
Good to see some action on this forum again I thought TG, Doc and I were the only ones left at one stage
Thanks for the VLL tip Simon, I'll research them when I have some time.
It's about time you made the move Traden, perhaps we can still have that beer one day.
Shareboy and I are having lunch soon, does anyone else want to come ?
p.s. have you had a read of this ?
http://www.sonnet.com.au/Archive/Vantage%20Sonnet%20Report%20Nov%202003.pdf
Tex.
LOL....yeah and dont forget this nostradamus masterpiece !
http://finance.messages.yahoo.com/bbs?.mm=FN&action=m&board=22689351&tid=look&sid=22...
"Don't hold guys, it's too risky.
Don't let a few rampers (that will reply to this post) give you a bum rap.
They will just logon under a different name and start all over again, or they will just disappear, too disgraced to ever post again."
I'll tell you one thing I like about this forum, there are no mutltiple aka's over here !!
This Brash-Grand-M Noosa person is very strange.
Sold my position in RIC at $1.26, and will look for a re-entry.....nice little breakout but probably a little over-bought (short term) have a look at the chart.
Seems to have very solid support which is why it spiked, but I think the insto's will sit back similar to AvV patterns and let is slide before pushing it higher.
I'm thinking a good time to top up on SNN will be when it goes x div on January 19th, mark it on your calenders
Keep in mind that Marcel will be presenting Sonnet to the investment community in February.......so it could be a good window of opportunity.
Still holding AvV and may push some of my short term holdings over to my long term account, they have had some big hits of late and it looks like $1.70 will be busted through soon.
I'm still holding WOW and I feel $12 is a shoe-in, I think I'll hold them until we start to here "strong" talk of aldi supermarkets growing market share......we have been tendering construction plans for some of their supermarkets in Brisbane.
They have 41 stores in Australia, and their market share
is less than 2%.
Coles and Woolworths claim they are not worried by it, but I think they'll start to spook investors in the future....could be another 12 months before this happens, but it will happen.
That concludes Tex's market report, have a good weekend
HI LC, good to hear from you, Get some WOW mate.
Also just incase you missed it, SNN are paying an unfranked Div of 1.5c per share !
http://finance.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,8060478%255E462,00.html
-----------------------
Meanwhile, ABN Amro believes Woolworths will shortly announce a capital management plan that could involve a share buyback of up to $600 million.
--------------------------
It's got to be a buy, $12 here we come
P.s. Notice the word "could".
Tex.
