wren Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 There are not many posts regarding Fixed Interest and related investments on the forum.In the opinion of some,most SMSF do not have sufficient Fixed Interest Investments (I agree with this view).The long term returns of non sexy Fixed Interest are really quite good and such Investments have very low Volatility compared to Equities.Over the last couple of years there has been very serious money made with respect to capital gain in Bonds,so it is not all boring! MQCPA..........this is a MQG Pref.share.Has fallen a little lately and at $102.50 is good value for the SMSF--IMO.There is a half yearly distribution of $5.50 (unfranked)coming up in 2 weeks.This equates to a yield of 11.2% which is fixed until June 2013. Wander down to the local WBC,NAB etc and try to do that deal! Risks:MQG goes broke and there are insufficient funds left over to pay out the Pref. Shareholder.

wolverine Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Bought a few for the SF account last week at $25.15 What a rollercoaster ride yesterday on the result and accompanying commentary. The stock dumped on open from the previous close of $26 ish to around $24.80 but has now rallied back to $26.90 Crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolverine Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It's still nutty to see a huge swing like that. $28-29 looks do able for MQG so I guess I am hanging on till then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arty Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 You did well, Wolver; well ... assuming you held or got back in time. I lost sight of it because I ploughed the smaller paddocks; and the next dividend is also some time ahead. Today's Harami (if it persists) reminds me of the one on Feb 21st, so I won't buy either. Tempting to go short though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
