Incidentally, are you interested in Wiggins?

Excellent write-up. Sorry you didn't get to pose my question but there is always next year, possibly! I shall just have to keep buying DYS and not worry about selecting other stocks. Divi must be secure too.

You are welcome to post on my thread any time. Oh dear, that sounds almost naughty, but you know what I mean. It's a great post, informative and interesting. Thanks.
As for the question, it as just that there is a tendancy for companies with a portfolio of good products and patents to become targets for larger combines who wish to capture the technology. Whether by mutual agreement or hostile takeover they get snapped up.

No I didn't. I've been trying to balance my portfolio and had not completed my sales, the assets from which I was going to use to buy in. Never mind, plenty more where that one came from. Nice stock though, and nowhere near finished yet I fancy. Big question now is, when do you jump off the roller-coaster. I've several other stocks I want to buy when the time is right.
I found I was too heavy in volatile risky stocks, WGG? So I've been trying to lay a foundation of steady, good yielding solid stocks. DYS I already have, looking at PRV which is a similar company. Still got some old dogs to dump but really need to have some recovery on them else they are just not worth selling. MPH is coming on as is NMS so all is not lost.
Sad I missed out on the custard pump but never mind, eh! WGG may come back sometime this year and make my fortune for me, or I may win the lottery.
