belgrano, we used to say that at my company too. I used to produce the evidence for my end of year appraisal. Got binned despite having saved over double my salary. That was the day I left corporate for ever!

Still nothing on ShareCentre

Never one to trust the Telegraph but interesting: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2019/11/30/inmarsat-goes-battle-hedge-funds-save-5bn-takeover/

Prop, the key RNS was 21/11. The split was stated as follows:
It follows that the cost of a shareholder's investment in Keras should be divided for UK Capital Gains Tax purposes as being 52.763% in respect of the Calidus Shares received under the Demerger and 47.237% in respect of the residual holding of Keras Shares.

I've lost track what is happening. We're now 29/11 and still trading.

Good call Freeshare. Up 58%?

findahappy place, I think you are looking for BIG winners, you have to expect to lose one or two along the way. I have a few in my speculative pot, and have had a few good results but not yet a real big multi-bagger. I've averaged MOS down to under 2p but that is miles away at the moment. It looked dead and buried until recently so still hope. GL and great weekend.

findahappyplace, that sadly could apply to me also with mysq. Been in MOS since the 27p days. Not expecting to ever get my money back but who knows.

Nothing yet with Share Centre (share.com)

I think we could quickly get back over 120 but this sale seems to be taking forever. Needs to happen soon.

Now wouldn't that be nice!?

I sadly have always sold Fevertree too early. Have always made a decent profit but it has always gone higher after I sell. Sold this morning but still holding a bigger lump than I would like in derivatives at a small loss. Regarding holding long-term versus taking profit, my take is that I try to set a target SP at point of purchase. I tend to wobble a bit and take profit too early (as per Buffett's quote). A profit is a profit though.... GLA

Anyone grab a bit at the open? I had no cash available sadly.

TLW, and so another spurious blaming of the global crash on Blair / Brown. This old chestnut gets peddled so often. Anyone with any knowledge knows the origins of the crash (sub prime etc.) but it should not be blamed on New labour. Their management of it can certainly be criticised but if blams is to be dished out, previous administrations deregulation of banks is a more fitting target. Those will longer memories will remember the tory years of boom and bust. labour will not win of course. The gutter press are taking care of that but I for one would personally take a financial hit to if it meant no majority for Johnston and his evil bunch of toerags.

Fusion, you are one seriously disturbed individual.

We simply do not know how the SP's of Keras or Calidus will react. I've added my last (probably) lump before the demerger. GLA

Dibeg, with no dividend, the only way to make money has been to trade IQE. Not necessarily short-term day trading but taking profits at the right level and buying back in on the drops. Still think we'll see good times again. Just a question of when .... GLA

After years of hovering around 30, now seeing a strong and steady SP rise. Not sure how high this might go but planning to hold. Wish I had a few more at my sub 30 average. GLA

.... needed for this one. IQE is one of the few stocks I have ALWAYS made good profit on. Has sometimes been a tough and bumpy ride (I was a HUGE amount down when it was 13 or 14p in 2014). Turnaround this time may also take time so this may not be those willing to hold on. I'm tucking this way and will add further if it goes much lower. GLA
