Well, after probably 5 years of holding, i finally find myself at break-even on this damn share. I cant help but wonder how many more years of turbulence are ahead of us to get me near a profit thats worthy of 5 years patience.

Maybe a divi would be enough to justify my behavior, but it will take a while to overtake other shares that have divi and could of been earning for me over this time period. ....gotta spread the risk i guess.

"should i stay or should I go now" is playing in my head !

I agree, its always had all the building blocks to soar, unfortunately they seem to also hold a self destruct button in the board room with beavis & butthead operating it. i wait patiently

So Hybrids now continue to be allowed until 2035 in the UK...no other country is crippling itself with stupid net zero targets. Stellantis struggling in US markets, tariffs effecting parts manufacturing import costs to the states. EV's are pointless and retail customers dont want them, meanwhile the shareprice crashes. I cant bring myself to buy back in yet as i cant see the light at the end of the tunnel

There has been nothing in IQE to get excited about since i started holding, just have to keep averaging down and pouring in more. Waiting for the explosion of SP that never arrives.

Its been quiet in the Tui board for a few days, is there a better location / website for discussion boards for Tui (in English).

LTH, just find the need for company when im licking my wounds here

Thanks

A bit slow to the party on this one, a LTI for me, but used this opportunity to increase my holding & average down, give myself a chance of getting back in the black.

Its disappointing to see what the government ZEV mandate is doing to these class leading manufacturers, its halved the profit & therefore shareprice this year. After 10 years holding, ive cut my losses and sold, just watching this one now for recovery. I expect turbulence during the next 4 years thanks to Labour 2030/2035 nonsense, where they think they will ban the sale of ICE vehicles... which wont happen

Plenty of buys going on today, outpacing sells anyway.

Barclays are advising you can sell if you wish or hold and be transferred for you into frankfurt, afterwards trade as normal, just in euro's and with international fees. If the price gets any lower i'll be buying more for them to transfer.

Thats a good watch, makes some sense. Just researched the US chips Act. Thanks. Im mainly just happy im not the only one still here !!

So im a long term private investor but IQE has been disappointing as we know. I haven't followed too closely as its not my biggest holding, but why the rise today ?

Sorry Stupmy, not Stumpy !!!!

Ive continued my research and for those it effects.....

Barclays will be able to hold & trade shares on Frankfurt Stock Exchange using the Xetra platform. Dax30/Dax40 & MDAX are all just groups of businesses for monitoring purposes, such as the FTSE on LSE.

There will be additional FX charges when you buy and sell aswell as a slightly increased transaction fee.

Moving on to Stumpy's points - Yes we need to know what the transfer will look like & how it will be enacted. But for now, my concern over being forced to sell or transfer to another deal service, has been resolved.

Cheers

Hi Folks

Can you sanity check my thinking. If Tui Delist from the LSE and move to the FSE instead (Frankfurt Stock Exchange) then as long as my Barclays sharedealing service can buy/sell in FSE, I should be able to keep hold of my shares and ride out the turbulence (excuse the pun).

Barclays tell me they can trade the DAX30 (Soon to be DAX40) but this is only like the LSE FTSE100, surely they can also trade the MDAX mid-tier shares. Whether they are in the Dax30 or the MDax doesnt matter, if they can trade FSE, then i can keep them. However Barclays only list the DAX30 in their international markets.

I have attempted to quote a German based share, as advised on here to test the system on Barclays and it did quote me.

So i assume my thinking is correct, I can sit tight as a long term investor ?

Thanks

Depressing current value though. this was my "slow grow" pension style share & its at the same price as when it launched

To be honest, as bad as today's reaction has been.....I gulped myself....... Im a LTi and am seeing a buy opportunity if its bottomed out. Always look on the bright side of life....ta dah, ta dah dah dah

I think your on the wrong message board :)

Surely there must be a reason, with a divi and a sainsburys deal in the bag, why would it fall...... unless people know something about these sainsburys properties !! Are they all based on Fracking sites ?

Yeah I was just thinking the same. How manay more times have i got to buy in order to average down !!

Glad I held off, this is crazy ! still falling
