The Sid-troll-AI-omatic has only been registered since the SP started accelerating, has used AI to generate 30-odd incoherent toilet bowls of nothing, and all of them have been in this MAFL page. A strange way to spend one’s days?

Make no apologies, this is a really positive move, but one communicated by an effing zombie. Unforgivable.

The problem with holding is that there is now a ceiling for the SP of 145-146p. So if other infra etc. goes up by 5%, 20% or whatever, then you are missing out. Not a recommendation but I sold @145p in the initial euphoria as there simply wasn’t much financial point hanging on.

“me” not “my”. Just my age again!

There are many ways to describe a 68(?) year old. Saying he’s approaching 80 years old just sounds like you are being a bit negative. I’m 57, try calling my “nearly 70” and I’ll find out where you live and complain about everything through your letterbox 😤

All correct, plus of course, some actual (gasp) CAPITAL appreciation via an increasing SP.

The logic for BBS was the same as my initial investment here roughly a year ago. The shares were very cheap and buying them whatever the purpose seemed extremely sensible. Buying them now makes even MORE sense. It’s a good trust, and you’re paid generously whilst PATIENTLY waiting for the SP to normalise.

Sorry, should read NCYF, not CVCG.

I just read the monthly update from CVCG, a high yielder in their own right, which I hold in my SIPP. Didn’t even know they were a holder! Among a load of doom and gloom about the UK economy it said:

“For the Company, the holding of Domestic and General 9.25% was refinanced into a 8 1/8% coupon. We rolled the majority of the holding into the new bond and invested the remainder in a new issue from Newcastle Building Society 14% perpetual to make up for the shortfall in income. We also participated in a new US dollar issue from Priority 1, an Irish logistics business, with a 12 5/8% coupon and a 3-year maturity. We continued to downsize the Company's holdings in the equities of Diversified Energy and Croma Group.“

And on the BESS side, see today’s “perfect” announcement by GSF, another whose SP has been absolutely battered for no real reason.

New OB summary just out. He’s not really convinced tbh. Check out his other blogs - particularly another resources company - MAFL.

All the msg boards of big companies like this have several bile-spurting trolls. No idea what they get out of it, certainly can’t be financial gain as they are child’s play to spot. Porsche1946 vomits his worthless drivel on numerous boards every single day of his wretched life !

See news re govt borrowing costs going up ie higher yields and risk-free rates.

I’m certain it will be first thing tomorrow (div was declared Thurs 4th Jan in 2024). Should give us a bump.

Terry - that’s the spirit !!

SD235 - such beautiful irony in the phrase “to stupid”, just beautiful 😃

Anyway, the Oak Bloke is already on this one (probably having a snow day).

For me, the fact that the acquisition is a CASH one is great news. Special dividends at this point would be a ridiculous way to allocate capital. IMO.

When do the school holidays finish? I see you spent three hours today spamming dozens of LSE boards with this total and utter sheet. Living your best life eh?
