So, what you seem to be saying skwizz is that prices of shares can go up and down, and do so all the time, and buying shares is a risk which can be slightly mitigated with experience and a bit of luck, which can also make a certain type of person really smug.
It's a revelation.
Who knew.
What a clot ??
Should there be a point between the 5 and the 2?
Karen did the same thing when she turned up, 500000 @2.5p.
She made a few quid when it went up, sold out, stitched us up, then skidadled.
Next, the 200m stitch up.
My 6k investment now worth 0.6k.
I'm so happy.
My actual opinion is not on the list, and I'd probably get arrested if I posted it.
Yes you are of course correct there Keith.
But
It is a bit like saying
If the baggies had scored more goals last season they'd have won the premiership.
Or
If my bank account had another five zeros I'd be a multi millionaire.
Please don't go thinking that i don't want mtr to do well, cos I do.
I am invested, i do want them and by proxy, me to do well.
But, of late, I have found them frustrating and disappointing.
Hopefully, the bod read the boards and will reflect on the expressed disappointment of their shareholders.
Looks like some are following your advice today pinman.
Are you a financial advisor?
Part of what makes me such a terrible investor is that I'm still hanging on to mtr.
LOL ??
Was worth reiterating.
As for GGP, guess what, i followed MTR on that one at the time because apparently, they are 'experts', or at least that's what i was led to believe, so it did surprise me that they sold out at such a pitiful and embarrassingly low price, because that one was a real company maker. Just think what we'd have now if mtr's investment experts were actually experts and sold ggp at say 30p.
Just in case you only read the first bit.
I don't think I've ever professed to being a great investor hydro, quite the opposite.
As for EUA, if i had sold it in the two's I'd have tripled my money and wouldn't have had a thing to moan about, as it was i lost a fair bit with them. I had another look at them before Russia began their war and despite making yet another loss with them i couldn't in all conscience subscribe to supporting Putin, so I also ditched a very promising investment in AMC as well.
It wouldn't surprise me if you were still invested with them though.
Whether you are or not i don't know or care because your investments are up to you.

Fortunately for me, i held on to a few and sold them in the teens, twenties and finally thirties, actually making a few quid for a change.
There's a lot of 'what ifs' there, which is precisely what we keep getting, and reading back it doesn't look like anyone got past the first two lines.
Your posts read like the company pr, anyone would think you work for them.
Funnily enough hydro, it's no secret, but they are the very reasons that i invested in the first place.
Trouble is, as an investor, I expect a return within my own lifetime, and it appears to me that ever since they did the SFR deal, (which I think we can all agree, was a cracking deal for which I commend the bod), but, since then the bod have quite simply sat on their hands and issued a series of wishy-washy RNS's.
When they were doing the buy back i thought 'brilliant', we have a bod that are actually interested in their shareholders and care about the sp and investor relations.
Since then we've had zip, which is damaging sentiment, coupled with a fairly continuous decline ever since, which puts off potential new investors, because it's difficult to see the upside in the near future.
Worse, the way the board reads now, and I'm not talking about my posts here, but, the type of posts on a board can tend to point towards the sp trend.
From what I'm reading recently, it's not looking good.
Investors might see it as a buying opportunity on the horizon.
Big sigh.
You're right, nobody knows.
What i do know is that whenever I have some spare change, if I can collect a few below 0.2p, i do.
Just kicking along waiting for a bit of good news.
Fingers crossed this is a case of when rather than if.
Hydro,
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but
MTR are not SFR.
I guess you didn't or don't realise that.
They've been saying that for five years now Keith.
The sp will continue to move sideways, in the same range its been in for half a decade or so.
Great potential
Still not being capitalised on.
Unless you're on the bod.
Can anyone remember the last decent RNS that mentions what mtr are doing without actually looking one up, no, no one can.
They did do well with mod and sandfire but that was years ago and they're still riding it.
All we've had recently is more fluff full of maybes and what ifs, a bunch of flannel about sandfire and some fairly iffy news about Southern gold.
It seems to me that the best investments with the most potential that we had, were given away at rock bottom prices way before they should have been.
Anyone who's been here more than a couple of years knows what they are, it's just too embarrassing to mention.
If they're quick enough they could still buy one of them back but then they'd have to admit their mistakes and resign.
Obviously that won't happen, it's just too easy taking the money and doing stuff all to earn it.
Jam tomorrow jam tomorrow jam tomorrow has now turned into jam one day maybe if we're lucky but not likely if ever.
Q the rampant posters of bod.
Notsure, really? Try reading that post back to yourself.
What part of the population do you think we should reduce first?
There's enough crackpot groups advocating that sort of 'solution'.
Which one are you aligned with?
Unfortunately for the general population, people with that sort of twisted logic appear to be on the increase.
Good grief.
We're all responsible for our own decisions chestec, don't feel bad for having a bit of hope and expressing it.
It's the bods fault.
Second round.
(clucking pop up ads).
The mere sight of this ticker on my consul makes me feel a bit queesy.
The 5k shafting is still a bit raw and the downturn now just feels like the management have found another couple of inches to push in while their fat mate sits on my face suffocating while my wrists get bound.
I just hope their mates don't turn up again later for a sec
