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.

2517 thanks for that, early doors yet for emerging markets generally but we live in hope :0)

For my records re post 435
Adn closed 289.30 on 14/3/16
RBS closed 232.20 on 14/3/16
EMG closed 152.10 on 14/3/16

rekirkham - Not sure what your point is? Let's go back to my post 432 0n 22/01 ADN SP 220p. Check out post434 on 03/03. Err job done wouldn't you agree. I personally have no interest in RBS but if you want to be pedantic check out SP on 22/01 to date.

You may well be right that RBS going forward may be a better punt than ADN but today I still prefer ADN :0)

Taken some profit on ADN, RBS chart continues to be a basket case some support at 220p.

ADN 253p - probably well oversold for today - one to watch now for a bounce back sometime soon ?

220p needs to hold otherwise lower would be my guess. Watching

ADN 240p support.

changing of trend

272.50p +1.80p +0.66%

The rise is not much so far but considering the market is mainly down is a good omen to be up

Last night UT close of 270.70p was almost 1p higher than the spread at close 269.85p

another good UT close above spread at the time with a large trade, very important

Rising strongly gain this morning. Looks like the share price is reacting to bull markets. My 289 purchase is still under the water, but my 259 addition puts me in profit overall. Hopefully back to 300 in quick time.

280.80p +10.10p (+3.73%)

Another strong move up this morning and now well up from the troubled waters
