Chris Boxall discusses three recent success stories: Castings (CGS), with squeaky clean reporting and a nice dividend. Kooth (KOO), wins a big contract with the state of California and Kitwave (KITW) just keeps going from strength to strength. In a sea of constant negativity, there are some shining lights.

In contrast at the other end of the scale, Chris discusses Marlowe (MRL) and Gooch & Housego (GHH) who have been on an acquisition bonanza of late. These acquisitions haven’t worked out as the management would have hoped but may do in time. Chris has been doing some deep research into Marlowe (MRL) and shares some of those insights in this conversation.

Chris finishes by sharing how he creates an internal and external environment that enables him to invest patiently.
