#242: We get questions

Simon Shares

• Metrofile* (JSE code: MFL) seller in market, use it to pick up some at great price / yield.
• Sygnia (JSE code: SYG) results see diluted HEPS at 54.16c (vs. 60.40 previous year) and dividend at 52c. I like the business but it is very expensive for a low margin operation without performance fees.
• Moody's not so moody. Fitch full of surprises and Standard and Poor's lurking.

* I hold ungeared positions.

• We got Marc Ashton, MD at Moneyweb, giving us his preferred ETF list.

  • In your video "A complete CFD share trading system" you stated that the system is based on the top 40 stocks, for the liquidity behind it. I was wondering, to what point would you consider a stock to be liquid enough to trade on a 15 or 30min chart (average daily volume)?
