Like LEVIS is on a " winner " with PSN in the 2019 Comp . ....

Markets still all over the place ..... i've got a yo-yo that doesn't bounce up and down as much !!
Staying clear for the moment ....

GLA ....

I didn't finish last after all ...
Answered my question tho' about having a basket of the tipster shares ...
I would be 16% down ....

My Bonds ended the year flat & my 3 remaining Funds lost in the region of 20% in unit value over the last couple of months ,
My P2P portfolio also ended 2018 flat with more administrations and liquidations this year than ever before .
Just as well my ETO and one or two other shares made up some losses.
One way or another it hasn't been one of my better years for investments. !!

Thanks to Gs for running the Comp ... and for taking on the 2019 Comp.

Happy New Year everyone ...

ATB....

One & all had a very Merry Xmas and i wish one & all Happy New Year celebrations tonight.

Good luck for 2019 .... i think we may need it !!

ATB ....

And anyone else i've missed or fancies a "virtual punt" , give Gs your 2019 Comp. share pick as soon as you can please ....
It's only a bit of fun & there might be a " juicy " share or two in amongst them !!

I may just invest in a basket of the Comp. 2019 share picks ....
Have to wait and see what they all are but over the last few years i think by doing that it would have netted me a small profit .( wouldn't it ?? ) .

Out for a Sunday carvery soon ... think i'll have beef , i'm sick to death of turkey now ... and sick to death of the wife insisting on watching " An audience with Ken Dodd " over and over and over again (lol) .
Got the Star Wars film set for record .... can't miss another chance to see Daisy Ridley !!!

GLA ...

Thanks for the welcome ...

Give Gs your 2019 Comp. share pick .

Morning & very good to hear from you after all this time ....
Long time since the Esure board days with smeagol & andreaban !

I'm afraid you can only have one choice for the 2019 Comp tho' .
Let Gs know which one is your preference ...

All the recommed posts . guys .
Where are you all hiding ?

Come out , come out , wherever you are !! ( lol ) ...

GLA .

Good luck with NG .
Finished a few pence above that recent 763p low.
Couple of big Brokers pushing a 955p ish target .
Gotta stay above that recent low or early 2018 low around 740p beckons .
Bounced of oversold rsi so i wish you well .

GL ...

You still holding all them TRIN you had a while back or did you take some profits ??
I see broker Cantor F . has been pushing a 37p target since around March .
As you say , may well be time to get back in .... technically skirting oversold atm.

GL ...

To buy back into Oil perhaps ?
I notice that pump prices have stabilised over the last couple of weeks , so next move may well be up .
Crude about to turn do we think ??

GLA ...

GS , if you're thinking of taking on a 2019 Comp. then i'm gonna stick with ITV again please.
Gotta be a takeover there , sooner or later ( hasn't there ?? )
Skirting oversold again and at a 3 year low so why not ?

GL.

Good to see you back ... my god , sir , it's been what seems like eons since you last posted here . Not even sure our little abode had taken on " cave " status back then ?
Anyways , thanks to you and everyone for the warm welcome .
I see a post of yours over on AV. ... i've topped up regularly as they dropped , giving me an average of around 440 so a little ways to go but i'm confident ( well , for the moment at least ).

GL sir .

May i take this opportunity to wish one and all a very Merry Christmas & a Very Happy New Year .

Whatever the eventual political and financial fall out from brexit may bring i hope that everyone finds at least one or two investing and money making opportunities .
I hope to pop into the cave a little more thru' 2019 than i have of late .
Have no idea where i finished in the 2018 Comp. but i suspect it was either bottom or very near !!!!
I still have high hopes of an ITV takeover in 2019 and have been topping up at very low levels on my AVIVA holding which i also firmly believe will pay off in the end ( fingers crossed .)
ETO have done me proud and i have done rather well from one or two DAX & DOW shorts .
Other than that i have left the trading to you guys .

I have left a box of mince pies just inside the entrance to the cave , so help yourselves , and i intend to raise a glass to everyone when i hit the pub in a couple of hours time .
Again , i hope that you all enjoy a very happy festive season .

Good Luck & All The Best guys .

Gs ... a post of that nature is really beneath you , even in jest ...

I'm flattered to have been offered the Comp.2018 baton but i'm afraid i will have to decline the offer as i am under the surgeons " knife " on the 16th. with obviously much to sort before then ..... Task...... put my " flying spanish inquisition visit " down to current hormone treatment . It can really mess with your moods at times . May i wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year .... GLA .... pity we'll see no snow for Christmas day yet again !! .

Don't know about last year's Comp. or even why it's being discussed .... More importantly the last update of this year's Comp was by Ariel on 3rd November ... a couple of days later we were promised an update at the beginning of December ... I don't think that one was ever posted ... was it Gs ?? Merry Christmas everyone ..... My entry for Comp. 2018 will be ITV again ..... GLA ..... and good luck on all your trades .
