Made a tasty 46% absolute return on this overlooked stock (IRR: 254%) to date. Sold down 15% of the holding this morning to bank some profit.

McBride #MCB is one our biggest movers of the day for no obvious reason (+4%) We were mocked for picking this stock but it's +25% in just over 2 months. Low valuation multiples. Good operational performance allowing net debt to be paid down. Hoping for a steady move towards £2.

Possibly a little late to the party but taken an opening stake in specialty insurer #BEZ (Beazley plc). Colossal 2023 PAT of $1,027m on revenues of $5,601m (+7%). Q1 2024 revenues up a further 7%. PE ratio an unchallenging 5.3x & brokers forecast upside. Share buybacks of $325m.

Still think there's significant upside for #MCB (McBride). Net debt down £21m last 6 months to £146m. Revenue +9.8%. Good deleverage story over the coming years. Maybe EV: EBITDA 3x-4x & PE 5x within 1 year. M&A suitors must be tempted at these valuations? Holding.

Brent up to $81.66 per barrel while we've been sipping sherry, munching on mince pies and watching reruns of Morecambe & Wise. Watch the oil stocks tomorrow morning. My fave is #ENQ at £0.1538. Topping up.

"China to drive global growth" One of the 8 predictions by a large private bank for 2023. Sold our last remaining China investment this morning. The 'big boys' know as little as we do.

@Mr21318 #ENQ an excellent play for the next 2-3 years as the massive deleveraging continues (assuming global oil prices remain around current levels or rise)

Doubled our stake in #MCB (McBride) today for the reasons noted below. Hoping to see significant deleverage over the next 3 years. Challenge is for management to maintain the excellent results of July-December 2023. Valuation multiples could double in due course to sector norms.

@Riccardino999 @shareGBP This stock wasn't on my radar screen until recent days. I like small caps (NED of an AIM-listed entity for a long time) but usually favour companies with a longer track record of cashflows. Happy to build up my holding at £0.50, £0.75, £1.00 etc if the deal flow is right.

@WHUFCDUDE We'll reassess this when we see a trading update or two. Certainly 2024 is a different beast to 2023 because of Mara Rosa (land of Paqueta), higher volumes, gold price, silver price. We penciled in £2+ when making the investment but this now looks cautious.

Goldman Sachs cuts Burberry price target to 1,380 (1,450) pence - 'neutral' This hasn't been our greatest investment to date. Looks cheap at sub-£10 per share though. Strong profitability. Good dividend yield. History of share buybacks. Excellent global brand. Keeping the faith.

#COST (Costain) remains unloved despite decent results. MC £187m net cash £164m EV £23m. Adjusted FCF £72m (2023), operating profit margin to rise from 3% (2023) to 3.5% (2024F) and then 4.5% (2025F). DY modest 1.8%. EV:EBITDA <1. PE ratio 5.6x. Strong order book. Hidden gem.

Strong update from much-maligned #ENQ (Enquest) today. 2023 EBITDA $825m. Net debt down to $410m (FEB 29). Trading on EV:EBITDA of bargain basement 0.9x. 2023 FCF $300m. Production up to 44,500 boed (2M 2024). Share buybacks of $15m announced. In for the long-term here. DYOR.

Taking an opening position in #JUP after some decent results. Dividend yield 11.2%. EV:EBITDA 1.1x. PE 5.8x (DYOR). Profitable company with strong balance sheet and decent brand name. Juicy dividends and ripe for takeover. Will add to the position throughout 2024.

Haven't pressed the 'buy' button on #HOC just yet as want to see the Mara Rosa (Brazil) operations up & running. Could be transformational - new geography, more revenue & potentially significant AISC decline. Net debt levels manageable. Multiples reasonable. New management team.

Doubled our stakes in Frasers Group #FRAS & Beazley #BEZ earlier this week. Frasers rumoured to be taking control of UK arm of Ted Baker. Market seems to like this. Share price +4.55% this morning. PE multiple low by historic standards. FCF excellent. Share buybacks in play.

Doubled our stake in #JUP (Jupiter Fund Management) for the reasons outlined last week. Both #JUP and #LIO (Liontrust Asset Management) offer double-digit dividend yields & trade at 'distressed' multiples despite having strong balance sheets. Plan to hold long-term.

@Mehtaphysical @AfentraPLC To be honest, no. We need to see the audited numbers next month and run some projections. But even then, there are too many unknowns. What upside is there from Azule, for example? I doubt even the engineers/geologists know the answer.

Oops! Mystified by the collapse of the #OSB share price today and doubled our investment accordingly. Low PE multiple, high dividend yield, share buyback programme underway and growing loan book. I'm holding a chunk of this cash cow for the long term.

Resolute Mining #RSG @ResoluteMining is not a stock for the faint of heart. Strong fundamentals (see below) but today's SP dip puts the risks centre stage. Military government, new mining code, Islamists operating in the region & rumours of forced nationalisation. Buyer beware.

Taken an opening position in Resolute Mining (operations in Senegal & Mali) #RSG Net debt down $46m in 2023 and now net cash balance. Hefty EBITDA of $162m and very low multiples vs industry peers. 2024 gold volumes expected to be 5%-10% higher and AISC projected to decline.

#COST (Costain) trading at £0.678. Don't forget that £0.594 of this valuation represents net cash on the balance sheet (£164m at the last count). Bargain basement share price. 54% up on this trade but holding on for more upside.
