Hi guys, recently there has been quite a bit of talk about TIM (Timbercorp Limited). What are some of your views on this stock?? ...short and long term
 
Re: TIM???

Now what kind of a question is that when you've picked it for the October comp and not given reasons ;)

I'm not a trader. I'm looking to buy shares in businesses that make sense to me and that have a record of steady growth, consistent dividends, and a board and management that seem level-headed and to have some diversity of background and experience. TIM might be a candidate, but I don't really understand the implications of its capital structure so I'm not confident about a price. I'm sure you know that it's been rising steadily for months.

You probably saw the announcement about its possible inclusion in one (or more?) of the indexes? I presume that's the reason for its jump today (i.e. Sept 30) and I presume that will keep its price rising. I didn't know about that when I decided to pick it for the comp; I just thought that I'd probably miss it in the real world so I might as well pick it for fun.

Lucstar,

You said there'd been quite a lot of talk about TIM? Do you remember where that was and for how long?

Thanks

Re: TIM???

I was doing work experience at a couple of broking firms in the past couple of weeks. Merrill Lynch, Burdett Buckeridge Young and Austock Brokers. TIM was mentioned quite often at Austock

That was an unexpected answer - what kind of work were you doing?

I'm still trying to sort out how returns are allocated between all the different people who put capital into these sorts of companies. Any ideas?

Thanks

TIM again?

Chartists, do you see any clear trend in price for this one? It looks to me to be settling at around $1.49, but I can't figure out what it might do after that?

What do you think now Lucstar, seeing as it's your comp pic?

Cheers

What thoughts are you thinking that lead you to think of getting out?

I hold this for the long term because as far as I can see it fits my criteria, some of which are that it seems to be well run, it has a record of profitable business development; it pays fully franked dividends, and it has a dividend reinvestment plan. To my very basic understanding of charting its share price appears to be trending up, which I would have thought was another reason to hold on, but it all depends.

Not advice, think your own thoughts, your mileage may vary, and all other disclaimers.

Why bang your head with this stock?

It's in an uptrend, has had recent volume to support the price rise and has had a good forecast. Read the following.

Re: TIM???

TIM might just have broken out of its trading range. Perhaps a little more confirmation is needed, but one to keep an eye on.

Re: TIM???

WARNING: ..... astrostuff ahead ..... :)

Hi folks,

TIM ..... as per HC post on 02102005,
we are approaching, what has been a
critical time cycle in the past for TIM.

Past two days has seen 2.75 resistance hold,
as we saw two "hanging man candles" form on
the chart.

Thursday's price action was surely a signal
day, with such a wide range ..... this stock
would seem to have run out of steam, now.

Will be alert for a slide next week, probably
around 22112005 will certainly be worth watching ..... :)

=====

From about 05122005-28022006, there should be a
significant focus on TIM's finances, with this
issue being revisited a number of times,
throughout this period.

=====

happy days

Conservative traders will want further confirmation,
but today should be the start of the slide, mentioned
above ..... ???

Can someone see what's happened in the opening auction today? At 10.03 Comsec shows bids for over 250,000 shares ranging from 350 to 356, and offers for about 370,000 ranging from 325 to 265. Yesterday's close was 339.

Unusually high volume and wide ranges.

I have no intention of selling, but I'm curious about this.

Thanks

Don't think so this time - it's nearly a million already today, where a normal day is around half a million. Maybe there's an announcement coming this afternoon.

Although they're both MIS companies and both grow plantation timber, I don't really understood why TIM and GTP are perceived as comparable businesses. They're classified in different market sectors, and their revenue streams seem to be quite different.

I bought TIM in December 2004. At that time it was already well on the way to diversifying both its crops and its revenue streams, with growing "annuity style" income. I like that about it, I like the direction management are taking it, and I like everything I've seen about the board and managers themselves and the culture of the company. Nothing against GTP though.

Just read the BHP ANZ WBC thread. This might be the same thing; just a lot of activity by the big guys.
