Ashtead has been a very good recovery stock.One to watch leading up to results 13th December and beyond.

Up over 15p.Really surprised little interest shown here.Sliced through target 175p and next target 200p.

I'll keep you company lex! I bought at 169p a week ago - mostly using comments etc on moneyAM and the chatroom - so I'm very happy!
Thanking you - and I'm in till 200p is reached.

Pleased to see others making money here.IF AHT conitnues recovery journey to conclusion then 240p-300p is more than possible.Believe fell from 300p+ down to 2.5p.Can you imagine feeling originally buying 2.5p-10p and price seen today!Oils & gas another good sector to be in.Personally following TLW by coincidence chosen to breakout today.

Hi LEX

i bought aht @9
sadly sold at 75

have been itching to get back in and was tempted yesterday,wish i had now

good luck

AHT looking good for eventual moves to 200p.Consider TLW as very bullish.

Anyone still interested in these? Hitting new highs, broker upgrades and not a peep on this thread for four months.

Pond Life,yes this is my biggest holding at the moment,and it aint showing signs of slowing down . :-)))

This is becoming a regular little moneymaking machine. It isn't quite my largest holding - but it soon will be :-)

Pond - there's a very active BB on advfn with hatto to the fore. The posters seem to be there all day and every day. It will be difficult to rival it with this, with all due respect!

I'm happy - in since 169p.

Well AHT rose 150p to highs of 240p.Overbought.Retraced been trading 185p-205p with resistance to break @ 200p.

Results rumoured to be 27 June 2006.

Bought into these at 1.35 just before the rights issue. Took up my 7500 new shares. Looked a bit sticky for quite a few weeks but now its over that all imprtant 1.50 level I think these are going to move steadily back to 2+ by end of this year.
Any real moves will take place after next set of results if the aquisition has gone well. Current price looks too cheap and a fair medium term price may be around 2.40 - 2.60.

Bought into these today @ 105p, have held them before buying @ 43p & 29p and still had them when they touched 2.5p, sadly didn't have the b***s to buy more then, but sold my holding sometime later @ 103p. I feel it's time to get in again. Good luck all, although it's nearly 12 months since the last posting there may be nobody out there.

bought some last week at 114, not too happy about it at moment, but feel fears over dollar weakness and therefore earnings are overdone, main projects are due to infrastructure not housing, anything with debt is getting hammered at present. personally feel it is overdone, hope everyone else does soon as well!!

Hi all ....... I will give you some company with this one ............ though I must admit I don't hold at the moment .................. have traded in / out a few times in the past.

Looking to very soon

Cheers

Hi all,
I bought in at 157 at the end of May on a recommendation from The Chartist in Shares magazine, I am unimpressed to say the least.

Afternoon Paleman, had a good run with these last year and I believe we'll see another run in the next 6 months. Holding at 130 for me.

With respect to shares mag, always find it best to sit and wait, have got stung diving in with their recomendations eg SEY springs readily to mind. AHT should hold steady from here.

Main concern is debt (which is reducing) and exchange rate, which will probably go against AHT for the medium term, but not long term I hope.

hi steveo???????????????one -$--two--last year one$-1.5 ??????????????????

exactly, most of their revenue is in US dollars which are worth less than last year, however, in time UK rates may well have to drop , this will devalue relative to $, and therefore increase AHT profit, of course also depends on how far dollar depreciates with further fed rate cuts.

This has seen a steady rise so far this week and today seems to be no exception atm, long may it continue. Hope I haven't put the KOD on it now. Good luck all.
