mentioned in Citywire [link] Neil Woodford holding Allied Minds (ALM)surged 9.2% to 650p, and is now up 27% over the last two days on speculation of a big deal for its Federated Wireless broadband infrastructure subsidiary, according to the Financial Times. Allied Minds is a top 10 holding in the Woodford Equity Income
Re: large buyer in mkt various sheets etc say it's also expected news on a significant deal for the subsidiary Federated Wireless broadband infrastructure.
Re: large buyer in mkt It's truckin' along nicely, isn't it?I wonder whether it's Woodford loading up before his new IT gets going - since he cites ALM in the prospectus, I imagine it will feature in the IT.
large buyer in mkt it seems the buyer of £4.3 mill at 614p from Friday, is still in the market for more ??....
from the FT re poss deal..... this from Bryce Elder and the team at the FT .....[link] Minds hit a record high, up 16 per cent to 595p. The US intellectual property investor, whose shares have more than trebled since flotation in June, were helped by speculation of a significant deal for its Federated Wireless broadband infrastructure subsidiary.
Re: Woodford investements increase holdi... Someone just bought £6m worth of shares!!!!!!! (4.35pm)
Re: Woodford investements increase holdi... very strong vol & buying for last few days.... sp reaching new intra day highs each d
Re: Woodford investements increase holdi... seems to have been a wise move..... ;O)
Re: Woodford investements increase holdi... I think ALM has good potential, but see Woodford's recent purchases as just topping up his holdings (all his holdings) as new client money flows in i.e. proportionately his position in ALM is the same. So I don't think he has become more positive or negative on this stock in the last 6 months, and the SP of ALM has doubled in that time. So a HOLD for me, and in fact I could see this drifting back to sub 400p.
Re: Woodford investements increase holding I follow his investments closely and took a position in Allied as soon as he notified it. He's big into Pharmaceutical which I think is very astute given the rising number of over 50's and general increase in expecations of the world's population re disease cure. He clearly thinks Allied has some great stuff in its pipeline.

Re: Bought at 375 Tipped by ftahaville 8 months ago. I bought at £2.70 so cannot complain (well I could have bought more I suppose).
Re: Bought at 375 I think this is Woodford's pet project - he's been involved for ages and I gather the reason it is listed in London rather than the US, despite being almost entirely US-based, is so he could put it in his funds.I dithered at the IPO as I couldn't guestimate a fair value. I still can't, but bought some anyway a while ago. Maybe I should use that as a basis for my investment strategy more often as, at risk of applying a kiss of death, it seems to be going OK!
