I started this thread on mid September with this information
Always on the lookout for shares to buy I have come across these unloved stocks.
AEW UK Reit (AEWU) - Yield 8.55%
Global Ports (GPH) - Yield 13.9%
Gore Street Energy Storage GSF - Yield 7.49%
New River REIT (NRR) - Yield 11.09%
Regional Reit (RGL) - Yield 7.83%
SQN Asset Finance (SQN and SQNX) - Yield 8.5%
VPC specialty lending (VSL) Yield 9.98%
All with what appears to be a sustainable yield of more than 7% and a series of quietly confident RNS's. All appear comfortable within their chosen niche and the annual reports appear to show that the board and/or manager are doing things right and building a business for the long term.
These were on
mid prices I think.
So here's where we are today (on offer prices and with unchanged dividends)?
AEW UK Reit (AEWU) - Yield 8.11%
Global Ports (GPH) - Yield
16.95% {
but seem to have cut their dividend by 25% ish}
Gore Street Energy Storage GSF - Yield 7.18%
New River REIT (NRR) - Yield 10.56%
Regional Reit (RGL) - Yield 7.15%
SQN Asset Finance (SQN and SQNX) - Yield 8.75% {
blended}
VPC specialty lending (VSL) Yield 10.39%
Note : a
indicates SP rise and a
a share price fall - roughly half and half
So apart from Global Ports they haven't done too badly and have thrown off massive dividends along the way.
In my experimental porfolio I didn't buy Global Ports (too risky even for me!) and have sold my Gore Street at a high and reinvested the proceeds into VPC at a low. Leaving me only with REITS and money lenders.
Global Ports continues to puzzle me. They have a good niche and the RNS's continue to be upbeat but there is a steady chipping away of their share price so until I know why that is, I am keeping out.
It's a bit of fun for me but is not a recommendation to others. - hope you found it interesting - regards - BBB
