I've recently taken a small holding in this stock/fund. Impressive returns over the past few years and seems
to be well managed.
Looks like a good option in lieu of cash deposits.
Any views on the Cadence share placement (@$1.43) and bonus option issue (1:1 exerciseable at $1.43 before 31/8/2015) offer?
Its yield is good at 7% (compared to a bit under 4% for AFI and ARG which you've mentioned) but its share price is pretty much the same as it was 2 years ago. Compare that to AFI whose share price has gone from around $4 to $6 over the same period and ARG whose share price has gone from around $5 to $8 over the same period, with NTA's going up a similar amount for both those companies. Depends what you're after I guess, I hold a little bit of CDM and will continue to keep holding, but I've been more impressed with other LICs.Fair crack taken before this weeks ex dividend date. Circa 7% yield FF not to be sneezed at, especially trading at discount to NTA. ARG, AFI, MLT, DJW all have some sharpening up to do in the dividend area or we will see players like CDM and WAM etc become more attractive.

Keep in mind CDM has a whopping 120m oppies on issue ($1.43 calls) with a Aug expiry, compared to 210m shares on issue. That would account for the disc to NTA and maybe put on a lid on things
Over the years I've bought and sold a number of different LIC's and seen them go up and down; now I hold two which I will hold long term, mainly for the divs.
Over the years I've found that at one time or another every LIC seems to have its day in the sun.
Tq for sharing your experience. Which are the two LIC's that you have for long term ?

Cadence Capital Limited (ASX Code: CDM) invested in DeepGreen Metals several years ago. DeepGreen Metals was to list on the Canadian stock exchange at that time. This listing was delayed for several reasons, but has now been replaced with a much larger intended listing on New York Stock Exchange.
Our DeepGreen Metals investment, is approximately 2.8% of the portfolio, and is valued at the weighted average cost of the most recent purchases made in FY2020. The proposed listing is at a valuation substantially higher than our current valuation. The transaction reflects a pro forma equity value for The Metals Company (TMC) of approximately US$2.9 billion and enterprise value of US$2.4 billion. The recent raising of US$330 million was done at a price of US$10 per share. Our investment is currently valued at US$1.38 per share. Upon listing this would equate to a substantial uplift in Pre and post tax NTA for CDM shares. This transaction is subject to shareholder and court approvals. Once the TMC shares are listed and trading freely we will value this investment at market price.
I heard about this play on a podcast called equity mates presented by a fund manager called Henry Jennings. Also had a quick google search and appears that the fund has been pushing this since early March which would help with the reduction in discount to NTA.
Rough estimate it sounds like current NTA of $1.19 could be >$1.39 once SPAC goes through which would be an uplift of 28% approx in the next few months.
Am I missing something?
Certainly hope you're right, I don't yet dare to dream but there has been good movement in the share price recently, be interesting to see what CDM trades at on Monday.Latest from CDM about the DeepGreen SPAC acquisition - If i read this correctly some existing SPAC shareholders have pulled out approx $83m of the original acquisition price but the share price is above what it was raised at originally.

Monthly update in March of 2021
If I'm doing this right the investment will be worth 7.5 times original value US which was 2.8% of the portfolio or roughly $0.03/Share which could now be worth $0.24/Share US or $0.33/share AUD so NTA could be up to $1.53/Share after the merger.
