Not only that, but I have been tempted to sell some, main thing that stops me is the price could go to the moon if the announcement is anything to do with the split, re-domicile or dividend.

Just seems like a standard pull back to me, every major price move will have a few pull backs

GT, we're expecting good news because the price action implies a leak.

It all depends on what you angle is. I put some cash into shell a while back, with a plan to sell at £20 a share. The reason for this was that I thought it would recover back to its old price. With RR I Had a similar idea however, now I see a bright future with SMR etc, so plane to hold for a long time, might sell half at £3, than hold the rest basically forever.
The most important thing is to have a good reason to do what you're doing. The biggest problem with stocks is your own mind fights against you. Emotions, fear, greed and ego get in the way. Profits are made by those that keep their cool, whilst others are losing theirs.

I'm quite heavily exposed to a handful of shares. I have a lot of faith in them though. The biggest concern for me if my russian mining shares (EVRAZ and POLY); BOOHOO I am not worried about at all.

I feel like as long as the update isn't aweful we should see a rise. Bad is already priced in IMO. Any hint of growth, and it will rocket.

I'm thinking based on the recent jump that we might be inline for dividend or the re-domicile has been given the green light. Either one of those things changes everything.

definitely big ray,
I've decided that it's mostly down to uncertainty, people absolutely hate uncertainty. Which means bargains for those that can accept it.

I read a book about that kind of thing, and they said that it's extremely rare, and you're better off taking the hit for one bad customer and thus keeping your other customers happy who will spend way more than that small loss.

Wish I had the bottle to buy more but I've got a holding in EVRAZ (suspended and sanctioned) and I'm not willing to risk anymore on my Russian recovery bet. I got in at 127p though so I am more than happy with that entry, it was unbelievable luck.

Oracle,
There's a lot to be said for that strategy, and once I get a big enough cash pile, I will be going for steady dividends.

Good point about the index. Are the Kaz assets big enough to warrant a place in the FTSE100/250?

Dream on Newt!
The only slurping you'll be doing is slurping you tesco basic tomato soup!

It's a weird feeling for me having to put diesel in my car but also owning oil stocks. 140 would be nice if it can send my stocks flying. Almost regretting buying this and TLW, though it's my own fault being naive to the AIM volatility.

Property is a lot more stable, not sure if I can be bothered with the paperwork though.

post split will mean we can at least secure some profit, then whatever happens to the russian side can be accepted. Worst part for me is just that at any time they could go zero. That being said, it's almost a year since the start of the war, so survival seems more likely at this point.

To add to that, you can run an electric car for free if you get solar panels etc. So out actually works out quite well in the end. Although there will no doubt be other levies to cover the shortfall.

Definitely possible, but as the saying goes, money talks. No doubt there's a bunch of oligarchs waiting with their cheque books ready to finance the revolution. That's half the reason I got involved with any russian businesses, I believe that money control's the world and politics is just a structure to maintain wealth security and keep social unrest at bay.

A lot of interesting points. I think Vlad knows he'll have to pull out at some point, and is just waiting for the right time. (Although I'm not sure if any time will work out well)

Any news that triggered the move?
