Bottom chart 'fast stochastic'

I agree optomistic that 95p is not enough but it would be a good start!

2x1M trades and 1x500k at 78.25. Nice stability today.

Many thanks optomistic this does help me immensely .

Still think these a good investment at this level (bought again at 74.5p)
A lot more upside than downside IMHO.

Good luck there Hyphan, I share your views on this one, a lot more on the upside. I don't think it is going to be an easy ride but I have hopes of RSA turning into a good winner. All our views of course but as a reward for the longer term holders divi is paid this Tuesday.

opto - I think I've joined in far too late to get this divi (probably xd date was a month back) - but expect to be on board for the next one as I intend to hold with a target of 150p. Once this gets rolling it will soon climb IMHO.

Record date was 20th August Hyphan. Long time comin'!
Nam

Thanks Nam - that prob means we're already half way to next (final?) xd date!

Record date 19 Mar 04 and pay date was 03 Jun 04. So 14-15 wks to go (possibly).

HI HYHAN HOW long do you think you will have to hold these then before 150p
I am hoping for 100p in the next six months////

bristlelad...South Pacific...song...."you've got to have a dream"
I'm hopeful of 1+ within six months but would not be oversurprised if 1.50 came along. I'll dream on a while.

Financial co's this size usually manage some sort of recovery - they have already done a lot of the ground work - so it should just be a matter of time if they are going to come good!

"they have already done a lot of the ground work - so it should just be a matter of time if they are going to come good!"
hyphan,
Don't you think that should be 'Before they come good'
opto

OH DEAR/// I hope it not just dreams///after ALL I HAVE PUT MONEY ON THIS ONE////also I thought the figures look alright ///

brisltelad, I am also well into RSA but apart from the reality of the figs, which I am not unhappy with, I still like to have my dream. I think I could well describe myself as travelling hopefully :-)

opto - I'd like to have said WHEN but it is best to say IF or maybe IT IS LIKELY - I previously heavily invested in MONI and TWT and so I've learned the hard way to not be categorical - but I do think RSA will come good in time.

Increase in activity today. Nice to see.

Yes namreh, nice to see the price rise on a good trading volume.

A lot of punters in 77-78p in the last 2 weeks before fall back, and SP hasn't languished in 72-75p range as in last few months.Range 78-82p before Xmas break with spiking to 80-85p to trade in and out (IMHO). Watch this space.
