I thought I would post a thread where people could list their current share holdings for others to comment on. I thought this would be a good platform to share infomation and ideas of different combinations of stocks, and it would be good to see where people are heading in todays maket.

I have listed my holdings as of friday the 23rd of jan 09, I welcome any comments, thoughts or opinions both postive and negative, and hope others will also share their own holdings.

My share holdings are listed below from largest to smallest.

Macquarie country wide MCW - 21.74 %
Sims Metal Management SGM - 20.06 %
BHP BHP - 16.28 %
APA Group APA - 10.67 %
Toll Holdings TOL - 9.58 %
B & B infrastructure BBI - 4.19 %
Commonwealth Bank CBA - 4.08 %
Australian Automotive AHE - 3.95 %
Arrow energy AOE- 3.5 %
Beach Petroleum BPT - small
Geodynamics GDY- smaller
FKP property FKP - very small
 
Re: Rate my portfolio.

I have headed to 100% cash.

I have a very poor outlook, I'm sorry.

Don't know where to start with comments, I'll make it on the first. Macquarie Countrywide. They have 4800+ tennants. I would buy if they only had Woolworths and Coles but is not the case. I strongly believe they will lose many tennants and Woolworths and Coles don't pay enough rent. Has the price been factored in enough?

- You have no consumer staples or healthcare exposure, may i ask who created this portfolio? If it was a broker i would be giving them the lemonade and sars.
 
Sorry but I'm not really a massive fan of your portfolio either. It's a pretty ugly portfolio really.

At the moment you can pick up first rate, primary companies with dominant market positions at great prices. Those are the companies I would be looking to buy.

The only companies I would think about holding out of the ones you mention are Toll or BHP. :2twocents
 
Hi Tyson

Its hard to rate a portfolio without knowing your style, investing im assuming.

i've been watching these though, and like them considerably

AOE- PES takeover seems a very good deal, huge reserves/acreage-for value, alliance with Shell, gladstone lng export

GDY- probably the safest of the geo-thermals, proof of concept to be not far off, potential great [if you believe the hype of geothermal]

-/- but of course fundamentals dont always equate to big $$$

i'm about 70% in cash myself, soon to be 100%
 
80% AGO ATLAS IRON
5% AAR Anglo Australian Res
5% AND Andean Resources
5% MAE Marion Energy
5% BMY Brumby Resources
 
Tysonboss1 your only Gold exposure is BHP and as said before no consumer
staples....the big question is how much did u pay to get into all those?

GDY was a great buy a few months ago at around 70 cents, same with APA
a few months ago at around 2.60..paying to much for anything is always bad.

TOL and CBA hitting new lows...will u buy more?

I like MCW, I bought the majority of my holding in them at about 20c, I bought in before the ex dividend date so with a 4c div on the way I took the punt that they would atleast hold their value and I would be up 20%.

Some one quoted that I had no consumer staples, How ever I would almost put MCW in the consumer staples basket due to most of there property is ancored by grocery retail businesses.

I don't really trade, I am in the position where I have alot of excess cashflow coming from my business so I am pretty much using about 80% of my earnings to build a portfolio of shares that will produce a good cashflow from dividends for me in the future.

I don't care if the dividends are reduced in the short term, My main focus is on picking up shares in some companies that I believe are really under valued and have a good chance of recovery and will pay really good dividends compared to the price I am paying for them now.
 
Yeh, I agree with the comments above, in that you have too much exposure to the current market.

Never too late to head for cash. We are probably still going lower.

i guess it depends of whether you think this is the bottom, the market trend is still down IMO [or to put it better, is not moving up]

my 30% cash is just waiting on a transaction.

also, im only young and new to the whole money game, so my time will be used reading/researching/learning [focus on trading]

Can you expand a bit more on your comment, maybe point out the some weaknesses.

I think you could do better in other stocks over the long run really. I don't see the need to hold all these second and third line stocks when you can buy top notch quality. Obviously it depends how long you've been holding them though and when you bought.

The market has given you an opportunity to buy top stocks at quite low prices (and they could get even more lower - who knows?). You should be taking this and getting in the companies with dominant market positions. They will only get bigger and more powerful coming out of the downturn.

As I said, I probably would only hold onto Toll and BHP out of the stocks you mentioned. I don't like banks and don't think they can ever be judged as quality. They're to her to put a value on.

I don't care if the dividends are reduced in the short term, My main focus is on picking up shares in some companies that I believe are really under valued and have a good chance of recovery and will pay really good dividends compared to the price I am paying for them now.

I would say Flight Centre should be at the top of your list then. Extremely cheap. Do some research and hopefully you will see why I like this one.

and maybe offer your current portfolio.

Yes, I hold 30% in stocks which I bought in the November lows and 70% in the bank. I only hold two stocks, the one I've mentioned above is one of them.

regarding FLT, i'd be wary purchasing a stock making new 52 week lows,
from a purely technical basis. :2twocents

Tyson, I've been in cash only for the last year so am a bit out of touch with the market at present. Will begin to take an active interest when there is a general return to confidence. I don't think this will be anytime soon.

Of your p/f I'd buy BHP and Arrow Energy. Would add Woolworths, one insurance company, either QBE or IAG, possibly AGK, and a healthcare company.

I'd be interested to know when you bought the above shares, particularly FKP which has experienced a huge fall from grace.

I had a heap of fkp about 30% of my holdings but I sold out at just under $5, The only FKP shares I hold now were from a dividend reinvestment plan that was paid after I had sold out because I sold out after the ex div date.

I don't usally trade but I sold the FKP shares because they had gone to nearly $5 after I bought in near $3, at the time the div yeild droped to under 8% and APA was at circa $2.70 with a better div yeild so I bought into them and QGC with the profits.

the rest I have being buying parcels of shares for months so my original parcels were expensive in retrospect, however were low compared to the highs and I continue to invest on a monthly basis.
