Bond yields and utilities I regard UKW as a utility type company. A fund manager on Bloomberg the other day was saying that if bond yield rise price of utility shares will fall sharply. I do not think bond yields will rise a lot in the next month but after that they may do, so it might be an idea to reduce holding in UKW sooner rather than later.

Why does iii list Greencoat along with ordinary and preference shares? Every other source I have checked calls it an investment trust.

Re: Another successful share offer I bought in this placing and agree well managed and worth holding in these uncertain times

Another successful share offer I only got 74% of the shares I requested at 110. Left me with an odd number of shares so I sold a few at 114.87p this morning to get back to a round number of shares. Made a small profit of 2.25% after dealing costs. Sold XD so will get a bit more back in dividend.The money raised will reduce their debt a lot and mean that lower payments will leave mpre of their profits available to return to share holders as dividends.UKW a very good income share IMO with a reliable cash generation from known predictable tariffs for electricity generated. On average similar amount of wind each year.

Re: Bit of a breeze springing up? I guess that with the yield on bonds falling, along with the interest rate cut, this share may well be more attractive. It's a boring business - you're not going to double your money, but the yield is what sells it.Personally, I wouldn't buy at this level - but happy to hold what I've got.Cheers,

Re: discount rate for NAV I was talking about the discount rate used by the company to calculate the NAV using discounted cash flow (DCF). Higher discount rate = lower NAV and vice versa.Coldingham is clearly talking about the market price trading at a discount or premium to the NAV.These are two completely different things.

Re: discount rate for NAV But on a more serious note you will find NAV can vary between virtually 0% (not long ago) and 14% depending on issue of new shares to control discount/premium, brexit etc etcCare in timing of purchases can make big difference to success of investment
