Share Price Alert: Port of Tauranga Ltd 4

Port of Tauranga Ltd [POT.NZX] was at an all-time high of $5.10 yesterday.

When we last visited this stock back in April 4 2017 it was trading at $4.15 and I said to buy it.

Now I'm saying sell it. Maybe if you bought already for the long term, you have that locked in, good for you. If your a short term trader your run could be perhaps coming to an end. Its at a PE of over 40 and its returning just over 3%.

You would have made just over 25% in 9 months if you include Divs.

Not withstanding its long-term growth over the coming ten years - it is going to become NZ's number one port within those 10 years, I think we are going to head for a wee bit of a lull in trading over the next few years.

It could go to perhaps $5.50 - 5.60 but I would lock in those benefits after the coming half year, when I think the company will do reasonably well.

Good luck.

Share Price Alert: Port of Tauranga Ltd 3

Port of Tauranga Ltd [POT.NZX] looks like it's creeping towards the 4 buck range.

If you, like me, are watching this closely it looks like it could breach that magical 4 buck mark.

As I write shares are trading at $4.15 but have been lower today at $4.07.

No news out just trading for the sake of it.

In absence of bad news I might put a bid in at $3.95.

Better value than when we last looked at it on Feb 27.

Share Price Alert: Port of Tauranga Ltd

Ports of Tauranga Ltd [POT.NZX] have had a truely spectacular run share price wise in 2011.

From a September 2010 share price of $6.75 POT shares have piled on almost two bucks or nearly 30% to finish trading at $8.70 on Friday 6 May. 2011 alone has seen its share price rise by just over 1 dollar, the bulk of that rise being in the last 6-7 weeks alone.

This has come as a result of a good performance for the 2011 half year result, up a stunning 23% on the 2009 result.

This is a result of massively increased cargo volumes through the port, especially imports. These volumes seem mostly be related to increases in the imports and exports from the farming sector and look set to continue if record commodity prices hold and especially if the US dollar strengthens.

You would have to say that the market has factored in reasonably well where the company is going in the medium term so the company may well be fairly priced given that everything seems to be going well for the company at present.

Having said that, ports are highly cyclical businesses and if you are looking for a price pullback and have wanted this great company for your portfolio you might want to be patient and wait for an inevitable weakness in cargo volumes.

Timing here is everything.
