aberdeen asset managemnt this company has fallen from 1.90 per share in may down to 1.34 now. despite having really good broker recommendations, as being a strong buy. Lets hear views and whether or not if you thing they have a good chance of recovery. I have quite a few shares and am wondering whether to stick with or move the money into something else.

If sentiment doesn't improve PDQ, next target for the bears?

Interesting article you posted on 9 Aug.

Re ADN, - general pension changes and pot withdrawals worry me a lot, and
I think one must be cautious probably until after Xmas, until we see how things are settling, then it may become a bargin share to buy.

I had a stake in Man Group a few years ago, and that crashed because FUM fell for a few months. Then it seemed that Man Group started buying smaller Funds, to increase FMU, rather than having their own FUM growth. What will ADN do to maintain FUM ?

Personally I like ADN as a business but am cautious for now.

rekirkham - Yes I agree, on the sidelines at mo watching. Tempting to go short because if the level highlighted is taken out there is no support till 280p. The remainder of laughingly called a summer in UK will produce low volume anyway and sentiment is still poor. Good company all the same. In the mean time wait and see what develops.

rekirkham - I agree if the level highlighted above is taken out then next support is 280p so as a trade short is obvious. However, who knows if sentiment suddenly changes remote as that may seem especially in the remaining summer months, best to be on the sidelines.

Not sure what is happening here have posted two posts neither of which seem to have registered.

Chris, there's a bit in the link in post 92 on the RDSB thread

Thank's skinny.

Bears have smashed through support @ 330p. If slide continues, I'm not betting against it (yet) and 300p goes next target for the bears possible support @ 280p. Would hope there will be some form of relief rally in the markets in the meantime on sidelines watching. This too shall pass :0)

Unusual, despite the fall that no broker recommendations either way have been added since 4th August.

Having another crack at breaking 320p. Headache!

The saving grace is its yield, and in the market as choppy as they are at the moment, what are better.
projected earnings seem borderline, but guess work says up. It may be for a bounce. (when?)

I am lucky I sold out at a slight profit + yield in April and May.

For some reason I have it on Watchlist, the chart looks to be bottoming out ? 285.

It is a b, of a market.

I'm hoping 300p was the support, but wtfdik.

If sp can close above 330p hope springs eternal.

Somebody should be feeling a little happier to-day!

Fred - So far so good, but in two minds whether to take profits on not just this one tomorrow, who knows how those crazy yanks will react to whatever the Fed decides at 7pm Eastern. Fingers crossed favourably.

JP Morgan first to have a crack since August. Albeit target price reduced from 415 to 360p I'll take that. In the meantime stop moved to 329p on only SB I have left open.
