Good numbers. Might start hitting a few more radars...

Naked Trader today - I bought some Safecharge (LON:SCH) which we discussed at the seminar. Four reasons for buying.

A. It looks cheap. Trading on a low multiple looking at forecast next profit and the current market cap. I would rate it nearer 300p.

B. It has tons of cash.

C. It pays a massive dividend, nearly 7%!

D. It looks a sitting duck for a takeover from a bigger payments company such as Paysafe or Worldpay.

Downside? Perhaps it could lose a major customer. And its shares look a tad suspiciously cheap but I am willing to take that risk! And there seems to be a big supply of shares stopping upside. Anyway I have bought quite a few.

Now I did buy some of these at 204 .

Well done.
