well the current trend is FUM leaking away ( for most of them )

why is it leaking away , because despite all fundamentals and logic several market indexes are pushing higher , making index funds look both brilliant and cost effective

now sure many of use know the market and economy have cycles , but the masses are still pushing the indexes higher

now sure some indexes are being elevated by a minority ( handful ) of 'hot stocks ' but the indexes climb as do the index funds and the investors don't see the value of a 1% plus performance fee fund manager that does make extra returns in 4 years ( or more )

remember the average investor might hold less than a dozen stocks , and not a specialist fund/manager for each market phase , say a deep value specialist , a long-short guy , and fund-manager that uses leverage or options

they just see the ASX testing record highs and their fund paying 4% after fees ( they can almost do better in a term deposit )

now some of us understand this damn market will retrace 40% or more .. eventually , but most of us can't be sure which month ( let alone week )

but some will choose a boring index fund ride it to the top and sell during a 5% retrace ( hoping for a profit)

this isn't my strategy , but some will make it work well enough ( and no high fees along the way , let alone the research some do )

3-5 years of chart sort of told the story on this one

A high of $9.50 in February 2015 with yesterday's close at $1.08 says rather a lot.

I can see a possible short term trade here but not long term holding.

AI is going to shake the hell out of a lot of these in coming years . The 3yr performance on almost every fund they run is pitiful

Just my perception but it seems to be somewhat of a legacy business model.

How many younger people are these funds attracting as clients? Given the existence of index ETF's as well known and easy option, if the fund isn't outperforming the market over time then that's not going to encourage new customers.
 
it will certainly need some out-performances sooner rather than later

the new CEO has run a successful ' climate-friendly fund ' before ( that wasn't Green-washing ) but how do you convince burnt investors he can do it again , let alone keep Green adverse investors ( like me ) on board

now maybe a little fee-cutting will help but he needs to produce out-sized returns as well , and in a market where index funds seem to be a self-fulfilling prophesy to boot , unless he can recruit somebody like Peter Hall with contrarian successes to stand out from the crowd , i doubt he can do it

you'd be surprised ... I went to a Platinum event and the demographic was quite young .. and moneyed. People actually want to see where their money is going.
 


Disappointment would be written in the portfolios of buyers in PTM from March 1st to 27th in PTM. About 50m of stock bought by hopefuls who now sit on $25-$30m loss. This is big. Short term traders will predominate and I certainly would not be looking at a long term trade atm in PTM on a risk/benefit basis.

Which is not to say that it is not a good stock going forward. It is just not a good value investment at $1.15/$1.16. The fall from $1.30 where the above unfortunates sat with their shirts flying in the wind was 30c. Common sense would dictate a further fall of 30c to $0.80 for anyone who has ever sold anything in any market.

I will be looking closely at price action over the next month or two. If I am wrong, and PTM moves up from here, a further look at higher prices may be worthwhile when further information on facts (not hope) is available. But not under present circumstances at the present price.

This is still a downtrend with lower lows and lower highs. Fact.

WAX bought in 2011 under 70 cents is the only Wilson's offering i have found attractive , but many others disagree

apparently,

"Regal Partners, which has made a string of acquisitions in the past year and now manages $16.5 billion, is working with Barrenjoey Capital Partners as it sizes up Platinum, one of the country’s oldest global equities players. Platinum has had a difficult decade, with investors pulling funds and returns falling. Yet, it still manages $12.2 billion.

"While there’s no certainty Regal will make a formal offer, or that a deal will take place, sources said the proposal is in an advanced state and would be in the form of shares....

Quite uncanny.

I'm trying to size up Perpetual, but these old beasts all look like a dog's breakfast to me.
Perpetual is only down 50% in 5 years as apposed to this mutt (PTM) being 76% down same timeframe.

Let's be fair though, Magellan down 81% same timeframe.

Are these all really old stink woofers that don't fit in anymore, or are they due for a run?
Can the old people stench be washed off?

The reason behind these older vehicles being so down and out probably needs a new thread on its own by someone qualified.

The boomers are largely responsible for where this country or society is at right now.

How's your wheelchair going?
