John,
I have liked Bacanora since it was tipped by someone on angle about 6 months ago. Price is the best for a while and let’s not forget it reached 66p or before placing. Geng feng invested more since so all good.
I don’t have funds right now but best of luck.
Excellent idea MJ & Sezz. Lots of unloved stocks and between us we can take a view and scrutinise.
Thing is there are just so many opportunities to make a few £££ that we could try and rationalise them. Not saying we should all invest together like - err like lemmings!
P.S Welcome roly and all the others who have joined recently.
ATB.
SEZZ - You are raising a good point and it ssomething I have been increasingly thinmking about. Take BARC for example, its surpassed the price it was before the pandemic. How much further can it keep going. I am now thinking of liquidating my position.
We should put a list together of value companies that have not risen as much and maybe extend that out to overseas shares too.
Carnival is one I am looking at, as its got fair way to recover.
Value stock should do well in the next few months (bank etc,)... but the problem is they are sort of high SP already (to John's point, they are the loved ones)
Regards unloved ones, it's a good time to start to build position but I'd say with cautious minds as you don't know if its the bottom yet.
Mining - I'm going to ignore short term now. Ones I'm holding now is for 12 months +.
Although non producing miners offer the greatest gains it is often built in sentiment. Lack of investor confidence can erode gains. So for example a falling gold price should not effect non producers, but it WILL evaporate profit. Investors some times look for other reasons like the stock is bad or the market does not get it. However it is usually lack of understanding of the market and investment case that leads to loses. The other reason as Nolupus mentions is bad timing and impatience. Best to take control of a situation when profits are on the table as John did at OMI.

Thank you for your posts they have helped to consolidate my thoughts. I had already started looking at lithium, copper and nickel. I am not overly familiar with miners so would be greatful for some stocks to research in these areas. I think I will wait to buy the unloved stocks..I started buying with Scottish and I caught the falling knife! In your opinions do you think it will go into the 9s? I am hoping the last three weeks of selling is coming to an end? I was concerned by IP but not so much now as it has a lot of great pharmaceutical shares. BOJO you are right I need to not follow sentiment so much and stick to my own research. That’s a confidence issue on my part as I am so new to investing. Any books/websites either of you recommend I am keen to listen, read and understand. Once again, thank you.
Riseup,
Maybe top slice and buy something tangible?? Gold may be at its lowest right now. Cash is good idea too.
Sounds like you are doing well and have a good understanding. Don't worry if your cash in too soon. Lock in profits is always a smart idea. Most important is to continue your own research and do not be lead by sentiment of holders in your stocks.
I have only been investing for 12 months. I figure it’s been fairly easy to make money during this period so I am conscious that my gains are not reflective of my ability! I am getting jittery with inflation rising and would appreciate some advice. I am trying to work out what I should be invested in during this period. I keep reading conflicting advice. Currently I am in BP,Lloyds,Bushveld,Canadian overseas petroleum, Norwegian cruise, premier African minerals, boohoo, bumble, synairgen,genedrive,cobra,maravai,McKesson,rolls,serco,pineapple, ip group and most recently Scottish mortgage. I am considering selling Scottish as I clearly didn’t buy at the bottom. In your opinions what type of share should I stay in with inflation rising? Or should I be selling and sitting on cash? I am over 25 per cent profit in oil, ip and bank. Any advice would be really appreciated before I overreact and sell haphazardly!
