November has been a good month for amateur traders.
The first of these opportunities came when Royal mail became privatised, the last time a major UK company became privatised being UK Rail and Utilities in the 1970’s late 1980’s.
Royal mail share prices has subsequently rose over 70% in its first 2 weeks trading, starting at around 450p a share it now has a current value of 532.5p standing today (25/11/13). Current market analysts have stated that they believe the share is now over-valued. Although when looking at Centrica a previously privatised company, their 3 year share value has increased by 200p and is still on the up trend.
There was also the début of twitter shares, the first day on the stock market the twitter shares rose an incredible 73%, “Considering that this is a company that has yet to make a profit, it will be interesting to see how far investor enthusiasm can drive it,” said Market Analyst Alastair McCaig from IG.
Finally, Poundland is a good company to invest in, they are currently in the process of doubling its store numbers to 1,000 and are looking at opportunities to expand the business across Europe.
