@beginner, the charge is in relation with how much you are using to buy the stocks, like if you are buying a stock worth 100 thousand naira, the charge should be 1 thousand naira only.

beginner:

My fellow nairalanders

If your broker charges 1% fees, please how much should the total charges be?.

1.83% same as mine.

@Windy, Wendy

How goes the gale today?

I note that FSDH Securities are you brokers.

Please tell me roughly how long it takes them to verify your certificates and have them on CSCS. This has been an area of dissatisfaction for me.

Samstone4

Yes, certificate verification is an issue. From my experience though, the problem has been with the registrars and not with the broking house itself. It's been a while since I did POs, but with the last one, they got all my certificates even before I knew they did, and sent them for verification. The registrars took their time and i had to make several calls to them before the certificates were eventually sent to the CSCS _{by the registrars}.

Very interesting and informative posts. Please do upload the data on Starcomms and Multilinks soon. In the alternative you can mail it to pumping to do the upload.

Yes o, I concur fully. Please email to Pumping (Pumping777(at) yahoo) sorry pumping, _{I got your email addy from an earlier page}, so that we can do some quick analysis.

@Napolean, your posts are very informative. Thanks!

Nothing spectacular. Q1 PAT was N2bn. Q2 PAT was N5.8bn. So if Q3 PAT is <N10bn it implies that the Full year will be about N13bn. That will give an EPS of <N1.00 which at current price is like a PE of 22.00. So to me, nothing fantastic.

However, Diamond is well positioned to issue a bonus which may influence the price.

Hmmm, I doubt very much if that would happen, at least not with actis being the core investor and being on the board as well. Bonus go result in EPS dilution and they don't like that. My opinion tho

@ Windywendy
Unity magic is performing, do u knw my entering price? Less than 9 naira, i dun mind selling it at 10 or 11. Mhm my Roll Royce, where is father of 1+1 ?

Good for you! But na Emmaachile you suppose thank for the unity bank tip

But wait o, why sell at 10 or 11? My take is that the price will be pushed to at least 15 before going on TS. So an exit at about 14 or thereabout would be more optimal. Na my opinion be that o, make your decision. _{**disclosure**Me sef get plenti plenti inside}

Windy-Wendy  is the sound that the Naira makes

You were spot on for Berger Paints and Niwicable.

More wind to your elbow!

yudiyokun, im really not in a rush to verify, i havent even submitted yet. will do so soon. pumping 777, i have no info on rt briscoe, im a LONGMAN, that one don do.
diamond 9 months was fantastic. superb. make una watch out for fcmb.

@windywendy

Pumping made things clear to me.

Anyways, does anyone have a list of the recapitalized Insurance companies? or know where I can go and read it up?

Someone told me one of them is doing PP and I want to research on them.

_{them go say na only Insurance company this one sabi for NSE}  

loma:

You know you are thinking too much of your NSE portfolio when:

You tell your children they can't go to college yet because you are convinced you can make another 50% CICO on their education accounts when the market turns around.

I'm normally a very calm and easy going person o, but if hubby tries this kin tin, hmmmmm, na im be say thunder go strike o! Which kin yeye tin be that! God forbid bad thing   If na joke make you stop am now now. CICO ko, CICO ni.

ASO SAVINGS HOLDS EGM, TO LIST ON STOCK EXCHANGE
Written by Austine Odo
Monday, 18 February 2008
Aso Savings and Loans Plc, a Primary Mortgage Institution (PMI) incorporated in Nigeria as a limited liability company on November 9, 1995 which formally commenced business,

on January 2, 1997 and converted to a public liability company (PLC) on September 22, 2005 is to hold its Extraordinary General Meeting tomorrow Tuesday February 19, 2008 to consider among other things, to apply for listing on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
The meeting which is slated for 11: 00am in Benue/Plateau Hall of Transcorp Hilton Hotel Abuja is to consider and if thought fit, pass as an ordinary resolution, upon requisite approval for the company to carry on business as a listed company on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange, including offering securities through the Exchange from time to time.

According to the notice of the meeting given on the order of the board by the company secretary, Bilkisu Rimi, the meeting will also consider, and if thought fit, resolve to amend the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the company by the insertion of a new paragraph 3 (vii) & (viii) and others thereof.

The meeting notice said a member is entitled to attend and vote at the meeting, and a proxy need not be a member of the company.

To be valid, the notice said, a proxy form must be stamped by the commissioner for stamp duties and deposited at the registered office of the company, Plot 266, FMBN Building, Central Business District, Abuja, not later than 48 hours before the meeting. Aso Savings and Loans Plc is regulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria under the Mortgage Institution Decree No. 53 of 1989 to carry out the business of mortgage banking in Nigeria.

Good for you!! I hope you know when to sell (depending on your investment horizon), so that this   doesn't turn to this   or even this

@Windywendy
Infact me ma self - i wan be your Godbrother,
On any stock you buy, just send me trade alert as well.

@WindyWendy

I hope for your own sake that you're right. I[b] know you have a good-sized stake in this company[/b] and I also recall the BIG argument that we had sometime ago when the PO was on. In all of this, one thing's for sure: an investment in transcorp has been a huge opportunity cost to those who invested. It's an outrage that the NSE and SEC allowed a company like this to come looking for funds in the equities market. For a company that had no history of operations, funds should only have been sought in the PP market where there's the appetite for much higher risk.

Point well taken, but I wouldn't necessary consider my stake there considerable though, but
I guess one's man $10 is another man's $1000. Obviously I had the appetite for the PP risk
then and still do, but it will be untruthful not to admit that things are "very chaotic" with the
organization to put it nicely. Its still a gamble, may be a suicide mission, but what the heck!

Re-hashing the issue of why Transcorp found itself listed in the NSE today is sort of tantamount
to asking why Yar Adua is still in Aso Rock and making reversals. We are here now and what is
important is how and what the FG plans to give back to Transcorp shareholders in return for the
reversal.

Transcorp or no Transcorp, there is some consensus (at least there are some opposing views)
that the NITEL reversal or its announcement as a "reversal" was handled poorly as it could
send the wrong signals to the market. Well, its Nigeria, anything can happen, even the dry
bones comes back to life Isn't Andy Uba the governor of Anambra state again?

ACL:

HI WENDY, 

Can u plese give just one stock against tomorrow purchse.
I was thinking of NIWICABLE or TRIPPLE G.
thank, waiting

What's your timeframe? I personally think that tripple G is in danger _sorry TS territory right now. I mentioned some weeks back that they were due to release results soon and are planning to do a PO, and that the price would rise subsequent to the PO. They have since released results and the price has risen consistently since the results were released. Right now, I consider it too risky to buy.

Niwicable is good for both short and medium / long term. I however prefer medium term on this one as I believe returns would be more than what the short term has to offer, even when compounded. My opinion though.

pumping777:

To complete my story of the good customer service I had from CSCS Trade Alert yesterday.

As promised, my Trade Alert is now working as I have just recieved the text messages for my transactions today.

Well done CSCS!!!

Pumping777 e get one question wey I wan ask o.

I filled out the CSCS form to register for trade alert because these BGL guys are not online. I paid the N2500, handed the deposit slip to the broker and registered online at CSCS. That was about 3wks ago. Wetin I go do now? just siddon look or wait until I get an email from CSCS? BGL confirmed to me that they signed whatever part they needed to sign and submitted the form to CSCS. What do you recommend I do? call cscs or wait? Thanks.

easimoni:

@ Wendy,
my respect for you just multiplied (irrespective of your support for Bill Belicheat  ) based on your Transcorp yarns _{oh and thanks for the Niwicable tip. 'folio is smiling}

To all those mad at the FG, let's wait for the details to come out. I worked in the deal-making department of a major oil company and our partners often wrote penalties for failing to meet performance milestones into our contracts. Who says the FG didn't so the same? The ability to make measurable progress to revive NITEL may have been a condition of the sale. No one can argue the fact that little or no progress has been made (still don't know anyone with a NITEL line).

Easimoni how na? Stop player hating because your team got whipped without even smelling the quarter finals  Admit it, just one of Bill will whip all of them pitiful colts jokers _sorry, players -- admit it now . . . , you know you want to 

Hi Wendy,
pls whats your take on ABC at its current price
