No trading going on for me at the moment. Two things happened:
1) got mine and my wife's New Zealand pensions (they pay in after tax over there) transferred over (we had lived there for 7 years and then had to wait a year after arrival back in the UK to get the transfer) and stuck it in our ISA's for the year, so that's £40k.
2) Transferred a lot of mine and her SIPP money from US funds into Gold stocks in Jan-Feb, including Greatland Gold, big thanks Bonker and others who got me researching them. These have done very well and while I would like to continue holding them, given the clear value disconnect after yesterday's RNS I have been selling gold stocks and moving more in here. When I said I was tapped out, it was because I wasn't willing to sell Greatland shares pre-ASX listing. As mentioned yesterday, I still really like Greatland and the gold stocks, but I have higher conviction here. This kind of portfolio concentration isn't for everyone and I fully recognise the risks, and appreciate the warnings from others. But I think the RNS yesterday has changed my investment thesis in terms of long term exit targets and de-risked my holding, so I'm feeling comfortable right now.
