Conversion Price: $22.72

$1B Elliott investment funds $3.5B buyback.

Convertible structure = downside protection + upside optionality.
Market reads it as strong confidence.

As a holder, I'm pleased.
Worth top slicing a few in case.

Share priceβ€―$13.78 (‑19.3%)

Revenue βœ…,

Adj EPS US$1.89 full‑year.

Gross profit ~US$1.23B🚨

Slight miss on profit metrics vs expectations

Market picky about how fast profits can grow

A very volatile SP to trade.
Worth a punt for me

Buying back a small position.
Will add again

πŸ“‰ Sea Limited $SE
Share Price $79.95 (-24%)

Q4 2025: Revenue beats.

But EPS misses at $0.63 vs $0.80.

Fierce competition means higher spending on discounts & logistics.
Margins suffer, but will this be continuous or once-off.

Still not cheap.
Best kept on watchlist for now.

Selected companies with RNSs out this morning.

Different investors, different thoughts makes a market.

Inchcape #INCH
A capital light business model.
>10%(f) compound EPS growth through to 2030, underpinned by disciplined capital allocation, profitable margin maintenance and contract wins. Hmm..

RNSs out this morning at 7:00 a.m.

Inchcape #INCH 870p reads well and a real possibility of being rated higher. A Buy.

Gregg #GRG 1571p always on a premium valuation, but p/e deflating. Safer to Reduce.

Aberdeen #ABDN 222p offers fair value. Worth holding. Hold.

Missed the significance!

Mgmt signaled that Q4 KZT 850 ($1.70) dividend is the "sustainable" baseline for future quarterly dividends in 2026?

A rare ~10% yield in a high-growth super-app. πŸ›‘οΈβœ¨

Lovely Jubbly!
Both a growth and high dividend yield.

βœ” Clarity on regulatory and tax effects

βœ” Progress in international expansion

βœ” Sustainable dividend policy

βœ” Temporary vs structural headwinds

Q4 EPS $2.78 vs $3.10 est

FY 2026 EBITDA guidance +5% β€” slower than hoped

Revenue and engagement still growing

Dividend reintroduced ~$1.70 (~2.4% yield)

Thinking, SP will fall on lower % earnings growth. Will take advantage, if so.

A Core Holding.

On March 2nd, results could bring higher-than-normal volatility.

Frontier holders seeking less risk in their portfolio often sell if their home market is down.

Been busy building a cheap large position.

Let’s see how it plays out!

Block Inc $XYZ

Jack Dorsey’s Block reset: Firing 4,000 to chase a $3.66 EPS(f). πŸ“‰

​Market loves the lean AI pivot, but the diagram reveals the tightrope: $500M in layoff costs and a 108% surge in credit losses.

Dorsey is betting AI can outrun risk.

Lean machine or no brakes?

Didn't nibble!

Decision Fatigue!

So many USA opportunities to dabble in, even if it is only short term punt.

Given, one choice for the next 10 days, which one would you buy?

Efficiency is the new growth.

Rightmove plc #RMV
Share Price 454p (+5.7,%)

Plans ~Β£60m on AI/software over 3 yrs. ~Β£12m p.a. hits profit, ~Β£6m capitalised.

Profitably growth slows near term.

Real test: does it defend pricing power with agents?

On a premium PE, it may just protect value, not expand it.

Not in a hurry to buy!

Too high β€” risk > reward, and this fall is likely not the bottom over future quarters.

Not tempted!

Far better to allocate: 60% to IG Group #IGG (1,306p) and 40% to Plus500 #PLUS (4,060p) for a more balanced risk‑adjusted approach.

Hitting the rails with the UK Railways Bill unlocking home market growth and the NEW North American contract signaling major expansion.

A presumption of execution in rising SP.

Liquidity is tight on both sides.
Sizing important.

I'm loading up. Onboard now.

Diageo $DEO

A new purchase. Bought in size yesterday on the SP dip, more as an investor.

But then greedily, snatched a small % gain with the intention to buy back later cheaper.

However, then heightened awareness made me feel that for now Diageo is a value trap.

A lower entry point required.

Selection of Companies with RNSs out this morning.

Share price moves 15 minutes after the open.

Exited Tate & Lyle awhile back.
Also same for Close Bros.

Jupiter Fund a double plus for me. No hurry to exit.

Hardide too small for me, but other smaller holders excited for the last few months.

Soars Past Expectations in 2025!

​Adj Pretax Profit: Β£138.30M (BEAT!)

​AUM: Up 19% to Β£54B

​Net Inflows: Β£1.3B (1st positive year since 2017!)

​Driven by massive Β£120.3M in performance fees.

SP surely anticipated much improvement.

Core Hold.

Mercado Libre $MELI
Share Price: $1,740 (-9.4%)

πŸ“‰ SP slid sharply after mixed earnings and margin pressure.

Prioritising long-term market share and ecosystem expansion over short-term profitability.

SP fall reflects investor caution around margins, not a collapse in growth.

No position as yet.

Diagio $DEO
Share Price $86.50 (-15%)

De-rated due to slower US growth and softer consumer demand.

Guinness has heritage, pricing power and global demand!

An ideal defensive stock for me.

Today, I bought in multiple tranches. Each buy was slightly cheaper SP.

The next 4–5 years look sorted. 🍺

Unite Group #UTG
Share price: 504p

Embarrassingly, find myself averaging down on recent purchase.

Meant to be fool-proof with annual inflation rent increases and a boost to 955p per share net asset value each year

Am I happy?
Meant to be a safe boring holding. Just doesn't feel it at this moment.

ME Group #MEGP
Share Price 121.8p (-16.2%)

Audit delay? Just:
βœ” Reconfirming profits before tax
βœ” Checking net cash stays positive
βœ” Careful review of the company (today’s RNS explains)
βœ” Complex, capex-heavy business

Bought a few to be involved.
Like the action.

A Trade Only!

After 15 mins!

#MEPG delayed FY25 audited results and expects a temporary trading suspension ahead of updated accounts. Hmm...?

Meanwhile, Diageo #DGE cuts its forecast and trims the dividend as demand weakens globally 🍷. Gulp!

#BGEO delivers strong preliminary 4Q25 & FY25 profit growth. Yippee!

Lion Finance #BGEO
Share Price 10310p (pre-open)

Not a slow UK high street bank.
More comparable to a high-growth frontier market compounder.

Combination of:
High ROE
Strong digital growth
Expanding franchise
Low credit losses

Market always demands a geopolitical risk premium.

A Core Holding!

Momentum up slowing.

Feeling a bit nervous post FOMO yesterday. Bought 10 times yesterday at various share prices.

Nothing made or loss exiting now.

Must remind myself not to buy on any SP fallback. Too risky!

Yes, if momentum returns above $45 at least.
