Don't know if many of you folks out there in Moneyam land invest in Merchants................I'd presume not? Its not very "racy",but anyway,its currently my biggest holding.

I bought some more just a few days back, before it went ex the 4.3p div,on Weds. I was expecting it to be down by that 4p amount,but early on was only down by less then 2p and by close of play was up,so infact on the day had risen 5p or so. With Wall Sts good performance today,its nearly up another 5p!

Any other MRCH'ers out there !????????
