Today I was lucky enough to be able to take profits elsewhere and get some more of these before a slight rise.

Interesting couple of articles:

"The initial A8s won’t have the driver-sensing camera in the dash (which helps the car understand whether the driver is capable of taking back control), partly out of German privacy concerns and partly because it insists it doesn’t want to charge people for technology they can’t legally use yet."

Going by its end of year figures it is currently priced well below its NAV/share. Not unusually for right now.

Online?

We bought ours in store. The big problem with it was that inside the casing was hardly any filling - it was nearly all pastry! Hence our refund.

As for WorldGoRound, speak for yourself - I guess you are an employee of the dodgy outfit.

"The market hates Aviva
Mr Buffett likes insurance companies because they provide him with a large float of customer cash that can be invested elsewhere, until it’s needed for claims payouts. With good underwriting, some of this cash will be surplus each year and available for distribution to the company’s owners."

I see that Bathstore has been saved by Homebase which has been saved by US private equity outfit Hilco. Many of Bathstores outlets will close however. I doubt if this will benefit TPT however.

At the moment I've no stake in TPT but it is on the radar.

Rumour has it that some more unprofitable stores closures are on the cards. Any confirmation?

Different product mate. I did ask the wife if it needed some oven time but no and it would have been burnt, she is dead picky about that sort of thing.

They didn't argue, just apologised and gave us a refund.

"Yes, it's going to be a problem with the unions. I guess that's why things always take so long to happen."

Sold a few drifting AIMs at a small profit to buy more of this. Not quite as good a yield as AV. but I am loaded to the gunnels with those babies.

May not be at rock bottom yet tho'..

Wife bought a 'finest' quiche, says 'at least Tesco do good quiche' . On opening it we find it is just a pastry case smeared with a thin layer of filling. Also the pastry is not properly cooked.

We have half left and I will take it back to complain. (wife doesn't like to make a fuss but I don't like being scammed).

"The Queen has privately expressed her disappointment in the current political class and its “inability to govern”, The Sunday Times can reveal."

"It is among the starkest political statements the Queen is known to have made during a 67-year reign, when her views on the political climate have rarely been exposed."

"The Queen made the comments at a private event shortly after David Cameron’s resignation following the referendum, but an impeccable royal source said her frustration had since grown."

Source not 2nd son, I guess.

Hate drunk drivers. Was behind one Saturday afternoon who was using the central line as a guide and pulling over when oncoming cars appeared, to nearly hit the kerb, also braking every so often for no reason. DMS can't come soon enough for these idiots as we don't see the police around much.

Falling knives can bounce. I believe a lot of patience will be needed though.

My risk capital is now fully employed for now. Nothing to do but watch and wait.

xd in 2 days. In USD so >8p per share.

"Trump says he delayed tariffs because of concerns over Christmas shopping season"

Interesting.

"This includes a $300,000 investment through the ACT
Government’s Future Skills for Future Jobs program assigned to their Canberra based Guardian
Monitoring Centre, providing apprenticeship opportunities for Canberrans, as well as more job
opportunities for neuro diverse and disadvantaged job seekers.”"

That's c. £170k. (Didn't it used to be nearly 5 AUD to the GBP?)

The same shorter was short in c. September 2016, after which the share continued to rise and they abandoned their short before year end; in early 2017 the sp fell. Second time lucky?

"Probably stay clear of both until after Brexit is resolved. "

Too late, I have bought all I can at these levels. Thinking that in all likelihood no deal has been factored in by now and in that way Brexit has been 'resolved'. The markets are always awake the day before I am so I have to be contrarian.

Anyway must go, according to the advert at the side, the Army Needs Me.

The news that Aviva is possibly selling up in Asia doesn't seem to have changed the sp much either way.

Not long ago Asia looked a good prospect; now it doesn't look so rosy. Does anywhere though?
