Two buys amongst international LICs
If you’re a firm believer in the benefits of global investing, then international listed investment companies are a good place to look for bargains. We have a few on our buy list.
Discounts ripe for the LICking
For the listed investment company class of 2003/04, significant discounts to net tangible assets have persisted since listing. But, with recent corporate agitation, there’s reason to think returns might be about to improve.
Foster's Group's wine spritzer
Disastrous wine investments have diluted one of the best companies in Australia. But the situation at Foster's might be soon rectified as the company looks to sell its underperforming division.
Amalgamated's attractive assets
While its more aggressive brethren entered this downturn geared to the eyeballs, tourism and leisure conglomerate Amalgamated Holdings has plenty of financial firepower. Having $760m worth of property assets on the balance sheet helps, too.
GrainCorp exits: The Ideas Lab
The time has come to take profits on our first ever experiment in <i>The Ideas Lab</i>. We’re calling it a success.
Dexus’s property values continue to fall
There’s still an opportunity here, but investors must choose the right security to back. And the goings on at this property group are a portent for the rest of the sector.
Premium Investors, premium fees
While management's attempts to bridge the gap between the share price and NTA are admirable, it’s still not enough. It’s time to shut up shop.
TAPS on hold
This income security has provided the exact sort of refuge we were hoping for when we upgraded in the middle of last spring’s pandemonium. And a recent capital raising has made them even safer.
No news is bad news for BEPPA
We recommended these securities on the assumption that Babcock & Brown Infrastructure would be able to sell assets in fairly short order. We’re becoming increasingly worried.
Spark's WACCed up returns
This infrastructure fund owns extremely reliable financial assets and trades at an appealing price. It also has the most insidious management contract we’ve ever seen.
Much to like about Macquarie Airports
MAp isn’t the bargain it once was. But it still deserves a place in our infrastructure portfolio.
Diversity an asset at Australian Infrastructure Fund
We’ve done very well out of this stock over the years by buying low and selling high. Now it’s time to buy again.
Challenger Infrastructure priced for failure
Challenger Infrastructure fund owns a few businesses that will profit from cheap debt for a long time to come. It also looks very cheap.
Property moguls swoop on juniors
A riptide of diminishing credit and falling asset prices has replaced the tidal wave of leverage that fuelled the property boom. Amongst the wreckage, some property industry luminaries are fishing for value.
Roc Oil's equity raising
If you own shares in this small oil company, make sure you consider the forthcoming share purchase plan. Because doing nothing might mean you leave money on the table.
