RSI sitting at a low 39

Why us SDLF up when ABDN / LGEN down in same sector / index?

Weird.

I’m tempted, though US indexes are to a lower open at 230pm today after APPLE hike prices

Good good. I’m the same but that’s the motto buy small amounts and top up on dips. Iv done so.

Best one has been GS / AZN / MA and RIO that iv built since 2007 of 38 stocks I have from 2003.

I sold Royal bank Canada after its great run in 5yrs. It’s going here today.

Got ABDN, rather miffed they syphoned off SL to PHEONIX now renamed STANDARD LIFE lol . How dare they

I bought SL back then 2007, so have been as LONG one, ABDN merger was bad from day one…zzz

Never mind had a better return from ROYAL BANK CANADA which I’m selling ( had since 2016 ) and move to SDLF….

Another words we investors have been shafted! I knew this was the case but have only now realised it !

I’m bought some SDLF shares last week, going to be selling Royal Canada stake I had for 5yrs and throw it back in Standard.

I see. I kinda had z feeling you were a zillionaire .

I’m a quarter of Z way there, and HSBC / ROCHE /RIO / AZN & MA are my tops holdings 8-10%

Hey LONG one ( Longtimeinvestor ), my holding here is 5% I have 35 stocks.

My heaviest holdings are 8-10%

Where do you place your LGEN weighting in your portfolio ?

Which is your heaviest of all

The guy that said £2.30 I saw too.

But tbh, it’s very possible. If you have any knowledge in trading, 2026 sees a substantial pull back in Markets.

Go read the piece on Benner Graph.

The philosophy around it has been about fit a long time and correctly predicted BIG pullbacks in stock markets

2008, 2014, 2019,2020, 2026.

Go read.

This is a YouTube video on it

10% drop is expected if it has happened thus yr is anyone’s guess …

Just move on to another stock. Go load up on ABDN or SDLF?

If the Earnings continue, the Iran / USA / Israel issue succumbs to zee bitter end ( doubt it ), and Ukraine war end ( no chance ). We coujd be looking at £22 for a fair value on a graph I have made this week.

Only 10yrs ago we were looking at £8 again. Passed it nearly doubled .

Just have to dream.

I’m up 178% to date with HSBC.

BUT…The one financial I bought, but just as well, GS is up 615% to date.

Stock split could truly propel to stratospheric ..

Hope everyone is enjoying the ride having held through 2020 especially!

If rates go up as expected in USA, this will shock the markets.

This year will have a 10% drop, though have we had a 10% as such to match the graph for 2026. Every yr before has been correct… 2020 even !

Could be a slow and painless drop by 10% maybe so unnoticed

Agree Denby it’s overpriced. Can’t see how know one else don’t understand simple maths

Buffett is from a different generation!

Don’t follow what he does.

Buffett has underperformed massively over last 5yrs.

He’s been selling of pharma in 2021 ( wrong ), seller of banks wrong (2022-2025), bought DIAGEO in 2024 at $130 now at $80, has no defence in his top 20 holdings at all not even BAE 😅

Please, don’t refer to Buffett.

He bought a newspaper company 2yrs ago! Who reads papers

Buffett is gone now and Berkshire is run differently.

Biggest mistake he made selling Goldman down at $200-240 . I’m sitting laughing as I held from $112 now $1100!! 🤣

Todays SP drop of 2.15% is due to GS cutting SPT today.

I’m with you on that too. Looking at adding new position in SDLF.

This is overvalued in my opinion based on accounts versus debt. There’s ZERO upside here.

Hi,

I’m possibly going to joint the gravy train here, considering I’m an investor or turnarounds.

Can see a good turnaround happen from last 2yrs.

EPS should turn positive this yr.

I am in LGEN, ABDN ( dud t realise properly due to being abroad working for 12months that Standard Life ( stock i first invested in, and one that ABDN merged with was acquired by PHEONIX.

Iv looked a broad array of analysts views here, all have possitive opinions.

How would yous position a holding here with this run against this macroeconomic backdrop.

Consider the LGEN & ABDN are both £10k each and probably around 4% of total holdings?

It would come from sale of VALE which has had a great run over last 4 yrs (£7k)

Shorters selling abs moving profits out to other stocks.

Iv been here since early days of 2006. Bought more 2011, and 2025.

That’s the key to investing. DONT buy 1 large chunk, buy in small transactions to lower your average.

These ppl then may sell some of the smaller tranches later like this.

Last tranche I bought was 156p last yr, not selling it though, keeping until at 300p at least whenever that is.

So true and SPCX is a loss making business remember that’s why are raising equity.

I took a punt on both CROWDSTRIKE & CREDO from 2022 & 2024 respectively. Sold em both last yr. But what a rIDE Crowd is stil on.

I haven’t sold Vale to move that profit here yet. So just riding out vale with commodities.

Like anon I’ll have £9000k making LGEN close ti £19k a pure heavy along with ROCHE / GOOGL / HSBC & SPG.

I’m so tempted with 4k here, i bet this is another of Trumps Blunders.

As Aspers says this aint going to be sealed like he says.

We will have to see both Trump and Iran together signing in my view to shake to be believed.

Is this a play with markets again for the befit of TRUMPS friends buying oilies ???

I’m getting closer to buying a last tranche below 500p.

Been here since 2006 buying tranches every big dip only more so 2009, 2015, 2020

I have been using the BENNER graph along with RSI .

I need out of this, management has sucked for two decade too long ..

I also own CVX / XOM / OXY & TTE ; BHP / VALE / RIO performing much better.

Onwards n upwards with our investment ideas though

The uptrend will start. 25-40% upside at least 2800-3200p I can see on graphs.

Al so, we need a mining boom again to help this. Unsure where the cycle is in mining, as BHP / RIO I have have just shot to all time highs.

I will be playing this one very closely the next week or two and move some profits from US pharma’s that have pleased me.
