Readers, please read my disclaimer.
greg,
SWLEE has made some solid penetrating
analytical contributions over time and he has spent a lot of time on
it!
In this case I thanked him for his clarifications
of the matters involved; he took some pressure off me at the same
time!
If you had carefully monitored my posts on this
matter you would have seen references to:
The 40 index. Many funds will only select
stocks from this index. FFS will continue to be attractive
to them.
It is for that reason that I am monitoring the
weekly turnovers of the FFS / FFSPA and the RBC
shares.
I suggest that you read the comments and follow
these posts, the last one was done on April 6, " ..........Trading results
".
At this stage there is no evidence to suggest that
large funds are selling FFS shares and buying RBC instead.
Please read my post of April 5 " ...........RBC>
P. Maiden ". It refers to " amusing arrangements " and confirms what we are
discussing.
It is the large players who will ultimately decide
the prices of FFS and RBC. This is because there are a massive number of
FFS / FFSPA shares.
Obviously, at times the small
investors could cause a spike on any one day because of excessive
demand.
The large funds as well as the small shareholders
are waiting for developments and some expectation is built into the FFS
share price for that reason.
Trading varied from 31-33 cents and is quite
solid. By now, many accept that 32-33 cents is a reasonable price to pay till we
get some news from the CITIC receiver!
As to your question, I can only say that I was
interested in RBC, and bought some!
But I never held FFS shares and so I had a
choice!
Sorry, I won't be able to reply to any further
posts on this subject for the time being.
Gerry
