Cracking find MelodyNelson. I'm sure we'll get quarterly updates with details on transactions undertaken in that quarter. Will be interesting to see who's in our first update...

The Battle Against Cancer (BACT) investment trust has bought shares in Neil Woodford's new no-charge growth trust. In an update, BACT said it had invested in the Woodford Patient Capital Trust The £462 million Battle Against Cancer trust invests in funds which do not charge it a fee for their services, and each year the trust donates 1% of its net asset value to cancer charities. The size of the position in Woodford's trust is not known. BACT has also invested in another two funds over the last six months: the Parity Value hedge fund and Seia Global Macro fund. BACT's top holdings are Polar Capital Japan Alpha , Majedie UK Equity and SW Mitchell European. Former Foreign & Colonial investment trust manager Jeremy Tigue chairs BACT, while private equity veteran Jon Moulton sits on the trust's board. Jupiter fund manager John Chatfeild-Roberts is on the trust's advisory committee. Shares in the trust are broadly flat over the last year, as the have fallen from a premium of around 6% to net asset value to a discount of 3.9%.

Was with TDW for quite some time, but have been using AJ Bell for the last couple of years and not had any issues at all. No probs buying WPCT either :)

Doubtful for each and every purchase. More likely we'll get a monthly / quarterly roundup. You'll soon know of WPCT investments through all the hype on the relevant bb (provided they're listed on AIM/LSE). I find a news alert set on ADVFN to be a reliable source of related news. GLA

Thought I'd join you. Looking good for some very quick gains :)

Blackrock over 11%

Woodfords equity income trust isn't it....or have I missed something?

You shouldn't have maxed out on one AIM bio johng! ;)

For many a small drop of less than 10% is pretty irrelevant.as mentioned below, this is a buy and hold LT. Kiddies ISA's loaded with these......

Morning. Yep, should be interesting to see how we go today....

Ditto. A nice quick 100% odd in CEB and profits are now here. GLA

Fully agree. My 16 year old nephew and his mates have been telling me how huge this is, and it didn't take a great deal of research to realise how right they are. Just look at the viewing numbers of the videos on their website. The audience is huge, and the appetite for this sort of thing is truly global. Glad i'm in and will be adding...

Hargreave Hale taking their holding to just over 10%. I really don't have enough of these...

Agreed, massively positive. Lots to come, and he sounds ultra confident imo..

Rame Energy plc, the independent power producer, is pleased to provide the following operational update regarding its 15MW Raki / Huajache wind project in Chile. Rame holds a 20% equity interest in the project alongside Santander Investment Chile Limitada. The landslide referred to in the Company's announcement on 16 December 2014 has now been cleared. As a result the transportation of the turbine components from the temporary storage facility at the port of Lirquen has now commenced and the first tower sections, nacelles and drive trains have arrived at the site. In addition, the main Liebherr LR1300 crawler crane has been assembled at turbine location 5, ready to commence the assembly process. The transportation of the blades, which are stored at the port of Coronel, is scheduled to commence within 4 days once final police escort clearance is obtained. Following the road re-opening, a blade mock-up was transported along the delivery route to confirm there are no obstructions which could affect the delivery of the blades. Once a blade set has arrived on site, assembly can commence and Rame anticipates that the project construction works will be completed within a period of six weeks, after which final testing of the wind farm as a whole can be concluded. Photographs of the transportation process, assembly crane and components on site are now available on the Company's newly upgraded website and further pictures will be posted as the project progresses.

Thought I'd join you. Seems rude not to at this Mcap...

If BHP Billiton were a teenager, the mining group would be the uncool kid of the class, with spots, greasy hair and a stammer. The big Australian wraps together copper, oil and iron ore. All have been out of favour since the commodities supercycle got a puncture. Oil has slumped furthest, prompting BHP to cut its fleet of rigs pumping high-cost US shale oil by 40 per cent. That implies the group is losing money at $46 per barrel from Permian wells where extractive donkeys will nod no more, but continues to cover costs from Texas’s Black Hawk field. Citi estimates the pullback will trim 2015 capex by roughly $1.9bn. That is small potatoes in the context of expected spending of some $14bn. More to go, no doubt. BHP can be expected to maintain the dividend, even after spinning off the South32 subsidiary. Chief executive Andrew Mackenzie, a steady Scot, is poorly placed to increase the payout. The shares have dropped 26 per cent in a year. Only a better world economic outlook can revive them. Writedowns may continue — the shale business cost $20bn but is valued at just $5bn by one bank. Even so, the stock looks like a haven for the modestly bullish investor. The stock boasts a forecast yield of 6 per cent, a figure associated with distressed retailers rather than big, efficient miners. The uncool kid of the class works hard and gets the grades. His virtue is his reliability.
