HDC up 0.88% today at R184, which is solid given the broader industrials malaise. Compared to peers like Bid Corp and Grindrod, Hudaco's trading at a lower multiple but has been losing ground on revenue growth, so the modest rally might be profit-taking rather than conviction.
HDC up 1.31% today but still trading well below the R210 resistance it couldn't crack last month. Is the market just catching up on the earnings beat, or is there actual momentum building here for a breakout?
HDC popped nearly 3% today on what looks like continued resilience in the industrials space. Anyone else seeing this as genuine momentum or just noise before earnings, given the P/E still sits fairly elevated?
HDC's been grinding higher and the +2.98% pop today suggests some conviction returning to the stock, though at these levels you're paying roughly 12x earnings which isn't exactly a bargain for an industrial distributor facing macro headwinds. The real question is whether manageme
HDC catching a bid this morning after that industrial demand update. Stock's trading at reasonable multiples if this uptick signals genuine momentum in the sector rather than just noise.
HDC taking a hammering today at minus 4.42%, but anyone else reckon this is just profit-taking after the recent run or is there something deeper going on with the numbers?
HDC sitting just below R200, which is mental because the distribution game is actually boring money if you get it right. Stock's been range-bound forever but the dividend yield keeps you sane while industrials cycle through their nonsense. If manufacturing ever picks up again you'll catch the express train, but honestly the real play is just holding through the noise.
R198.90 is cheap for what HDC does in industrial distribution. these guys have solid earnings and actual revenue unlike the spec plays everyone chases, balance sheet is clean and the rand weakness actually helps their export game. if you're not holding this for the next 2-3 years you're missing the point.
Close at R198.90 is pretty clean, sitting just below that R200 psychological level. Distribution plays like HDC tend to do well when manufacturing picks up, and if load-shedding ever settles down the industrial side could get proper support. Balance sheet looks solid enough to weather the rough patches, so this isn't a flyer like some of the other industrials floating around.
hdc sitting pretty just below r200, that's the number everyone's watching. distribution plays like this thrive when manufacturing picks up and they've got decent margins if the rand holds. could be a sneaky accumulate if you believe capex cycles are turning, but thin volumes make it tricky to build a position.
