Nimmo hero, property zero We reverse our usual order with a look first at the most ‘expensive’ investment trusts this week ranked by Numis Securities (see first table below).News that star fund manager Harry Nimmo was looking to do another seven-year stretch on Standard Life UK Smaller Companies (SLS + ) before retiring pleased investors and resulted in the discount – or gap between the share price and its net asset value (NAV) – shrinking to a 10-year low of 1.4%. The shares closed yesterday at 371p, up 4.6% over the previous week. That pushed the sector-leading trust’s Z-score to 3.7 making it this week’s most pricey fund.Just to recap, Z-scores are a measure analysts use to put a share price in some historical context. Roughly speaking, a Z-score of 2 or more shows a stock is significantly above its normal trading range and is therefore ‘expensive’. Conversely, a score of -2 or below shows a stock is significantly below its normal trading range and is therefore ‘cheap’ (see second table).SEE LINK FOR CHARTS[link]

Balance Sheet Strengthening I have held these for some time now and on an absolute return basis am now about break even.So what to do? Sell the lot, hang in there with full holding or keep a percentage?If Edison research are right I should be topping up.You can download there report here:[link] Edison did flag up the ZDP share issue in an extensive research note on Nov 11th which is here:[link] Edison know what they are talking about? If the do and the restructuring means the dividend becomes sustainable then the forward yield at today's price would be 14%Based the the capitulation in the price that has occurred today the market does not share Edisons evaluation.So who is right Mr Market or Edison?

Re: hello and hope ur as good Have held these for approx 17 years. Compound return BEFORE dividends of approx 11% p.a.If only I could reasonably expect the same return in the future. But still a good hold.

Controlling the BBs Just looked over at the lse bb for ntog and what a sad old board, why? because it is silent!!Silent because the Preacher and lse between themselves have destroyed what these boards are all about, freedom of speech is no more, i note with even more sadness, that our most long term dissident as we all know him Iceclimber, has finally become the latest victim of Lofgrunt and his controlling personality!!Does the man have such little else to do apart from police the shareholders and control their very own reasons for posting their concerns, you had better watch out Preacher as even squeaky clean you have Skeletons in the closet, and they may just be creeping up on you, you have already upset several well known bloggers with your underhanded deals just lately, and while they are quiet, its the time to be extra vigilant, many pens may be at work?Its a sad time for Ntog shareholders denied their Human Rights as a free speech generation, by someone whose very existance as a Ceo of listed companies, depends on those shareholders, good or bad, disciples or not, rampers or derampers, you have no right to control them on these Boards or your other favarite Banning Ground.Just one more line for Bonkers22 i am not samvoller and i dont have a Twitter account!!!!!ATB geseppe

Re: nibbling a few more/AND AGAIN but could he grant himself more options - which could explain why price seems deliberately held down?

Re: When ? end H1 2014 cash was 7.2m; 6 months later cash is £4.5m - so £450k a month of cash is being spent. That means the company has 10 months worth of cash left.Sorry for the simplistic point of view but is this correct? Because it may mean the company asking for more funding?

Re: First positive day for ZOX in a while... It just looks like fun and games before it gets delisted if you ask me. Would be delighted to be wrong.

ZOX HPC Follower 04 Dec 2015

First positive day for ZOX in a while... 57% up on the day, although well down on the week - very badly down since the 25th November placement announcement and Major Shareholder sell offs.Hopefully ZOX can continue to improve from here... any strength in buying pressure will help Andrew Woollett's negotiations.
