RE: ic152 | maybe time to reduce exposure?19 Oct 2021 12:54
Dear Chatmandu,
What a thoughtful post and truly appreciated. I did reduce my holding (think it was at 98p) by half and bought back at 86, which was a bit risky in some respects but luckily it worked and I am now in blue numbers. I based my reduction partly on the advice of you, and others, on this board and it was absolutely the right thing to do. I now monitor prices and potential sells on a spreadsheet. I have sell parameters in place for any drops, to protect my finances now, good advice again.
I will start to top slice in increments at £1. 18 onwards, should we get there. Ideally, I would let the whole investment ride for a year but the volatility is still there for me and I have a family house to buy.
I would be interested in views on the switch to electric, considering 15% of cars sold in the UK last month were fully electric? Faster than I anticipated but under unusual circumstances. Economies of scale will start to come in to play, although I am clueless on whether this will mean a sharp rise in Lithium pricing.
Thanks again for the advice!
