I here a whisper that Ashtead may become the target of a takeover bid. Anybody have any further news on this? I've been holding this little gem for a while now. Got in at 11.25p and then sold 2/3rds of my stock at 18p to break even. Can't quite decide when to take my mega profit. 1 by Christmas? Here's hoping.

it's a very good company, but sp does fly around a bit for no obvious reason
i hold in my sipp, though i do occasionally trade it as well, but assuredly not in the present climate

Yes Fred recommended AHT ages ago to me and your right not a good time to trade it.

fred also recommends JC and the militant hard left, so his recommendations are more than little suspect

Of dear there you go again telling fibs.
