The stated NTA BEFORE Tax in Feb 21 was $1.67. The SP of WMI has powered ahead lately cum a 4c a share FFR dividend. The SP today is $2.16, which amounts to a 29% premium to last months NTA before tax. This is heady territory and a VERY significant premium to NTA given that even if the SP drops 5-6 cents Ex dividend, at today’s prices it will still trade at a 25% premium to NTA.
Now there is no argument that WMI is not a well run fund, but Geoff Wilson is well known as a canny buyer of value, liking to buy a dollar for 80 cents. Notwithstanding that WMI MAY have had a good March and that the NTA is likely to have risen, there doesn’t seem to be much evidence against the fact that WMI seems to be significantly overvalued on SP. I suspect that Geoff would definitely not be a buyer at today’s prices and can’t help wondering that IF one was to trim ones holdings, whether we would get a chance to buy in at a lower price.

There seems to be an awful lot of optimism built into today’s SP !
