RE.B up 2.5% today. I have not check anything else as the first pref I checked contradicted your statement.OwenSwansea wrote:No other Preference Shares went up by 2% today. Could be a sign of Market confidence?

Waiting for my charcol to heat up so had a quick look. Using 20th Feb as the start point, the day markets started the Covid tumble, it seems RE.B and RAVP have both underperformed NWBD, LLPC and ELLA. Maybe the market is recognising that and this is just a bit of catch up, but it certainly isn't out performance IMHO.Wizard wrote:RE.B up 2.5% today.

Luni never applied his Zones concept to Prefs & Bonds. I wonder where one would draw the boundaries. I'm not sure that Goldilocks ever visited Russia.OwenSwansea wrote:.....and RAVP certainly out performs NWBD, LLPC and ELLA when it comes to yield.
It always has and for good reason, there is greater risk.OwenSwansea wrote:Wizard,
Perhaps I should have written that few other Prefs. went up by 2% today. As for RE.B, I doubt if many people have got the nerve to invest in these shares, and RAVP certainly out performs NWBD, LLPC and ELLA when it comes to yield.

He was and is Luniversal, a long-time luminary of the HYP Board, and the IT board where he coined the B7 & B8.OwenSwansea wrote:88V8,Sorry to have to reveal my ignorance, but who is “Luni”.
Sorry missed this question. I am deeply underwater with them, having bought them at round about par many years ago. It looked like they were pulling back just before the COVID hit on the oil price, but it may be a very long time before they recover now. Only a small holding fortunately at about a third of my RAVP exposure based on purchase price. So brave enough to hold on in there, but not to buy more and average down.OwenSwansea wrote:Wizard,

One of my main concerns was how they were going to finance the Invesco share buyout - and I cant find any news on that. Anyone know whats happening if anything ?. They are still the biggest shareholder by a large margin by the look of it.
