    Maybe because he likes the dividend? Currently pays out at 6.5% gross Before imputation credits. Very reliable dividend history. Not everyone thinks growth all the time Percy. There are different approaches to investing and good to have a holistic approach as opposed to "my way is the way of true believers".

    With the amount of capital he has lost in the past year I would have thought he would understand "the holistic approach" is the fast way to "the poor house."!!!
    Warren Buffett's three golden rules of investment;\
    Rule 1.Do not lose capital.
    Rule 2.Remember rule 1.
    Rule 3.Remember rule 1 and 2.

    Dead right BB have held WHS on and off over the years and never lost a dime nothing wrong with paying $3.27 Percy the price ain't going to stay there, I was simply commenting in a humorous way what the chart will look like tonight PS-MVN goes Ex divvy tomorrow so i guess that means BB and myself will have some more pocket money to spend.

    I am sure that is not quite what he said, but in that spirit:

    Mr W Buffet from Omaha also said things like:

    Be greedy when percy is fearful and vice versa;

    Whether it be sock or stocks, make sure they that percy has not previously worn them.

    Why why why do you think couta needs to be warned off? What is it that makes WHS such a bad thing at current prices?

    Onion.
    Maybe a long answer.
    First of all I think management are making all the correct decisions.Noel Leemings,online stores,click and collect,banking.
    However I use charts for timing purchases/sales of shares.The most important indicators for me are the 50 day and 200 day moving averages.WHS share price is below both averages,which means to me stay away.Another important indicator to me is the MACD.This has turned down.Again to me it means stay away.The slow stochastic indicator also confirms stay away.
    The best advice has been given by KW;Go to Forum,Then Investment Strategies;Then Using TA to time entries & exits.
    Brilliant advice.

    Its not necessarily long or even necessarily right. What it is is your reading on the stock......here is an other version that may be equally (to some?) and more valid (to me anyway). Since Feb 2013 the SP has not been lower than 3.20 and in fact has been between 3.60 to 3.80 for most of that period. So whilst I am a complete advocate of buying low and when possible lower, the fact is that opportunities to buy low just have not been available. I therefore see your judgement as to the rightness or wrongness of timing and choice of WHS as somewhat subjective ( in a monocular kind of way).
