LONDON (SHARECAST) - National Grid is helping lift the gas, water and multi-utilities sector higher after the energy pipeline operator announced a new finance director.

If you have a short on bp, I'd close it...... Fair bit of news on possible talks with the gov as a settlement...... Should prove positive for bp.... ITF

http://www.ukcitymedia.co.uk/news/fullstory.php?id=928 Buy Tate for divs...... ITF

Today..... However I did get very excited when I saw 478...... Never mind, there's always tomorrow! ITF

I may not! Missed this one for now..... Off to lose more money in BP!! ITF

TBC..... Probally 3rd ish of December...... ITF

Good finish on Friday..... If we see a good day Monday then £5 maybe a possibility by the end of the week? Sweet...... Could be a tasty Christmas..... Il check to see when next div is due..... ITF

Hi Osaki.... Hope all is well and trading is good.... I sold some of my gkp today so that i now only have free shares..... A hard decision but one I feel better for tonight, I have bought a few shanta gold and pci...... What will happen we will see...... Bp peeing me off...... I really want 4.20+ so I can sell some and buy a few others! Whole market seamed down for me today, I'm looking for a little more in ng and Tate so I can finish selling a few so that I can invest a bit more money and up my ISA shares into a more varied portfolio that I should be able to forget about for a year or so!!!! I will still play with the spread account and nominee account..... I'm also looking at a few other shares that I will post on later in the week..... All the best... ITF

Good for you! Did you take the cash or extra shares? Fair play either way! ITF

Deciding that maybe I wont be able to buy sub 1700 as markets seem to be recovering and the double dip that was talked about, I still dont want to pay any more than 1720 so Il wait! Who knows I could be lucky!! ITF

http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE68G3G820100917 Market week news..... ITF

Well that wasnt quite what I was hoping for! £4.63! What happend! The market pretty much lost all it gained over the week on friday so quite happy with this as I thought it could of been around the £4.50 mark looking at other major shares and the drop they had on friday..... Looking foward to next week to see where we go........ Maybe just maybe I was a little over the top with the £5.15 in the next couple of weeks...... If theres no news/roumers next week and we hit £4.75 then I will be happy happy happy, as in my humble opinion we may see a bigger upside on £5.15 when news/roumers come out..... Have a great weekned..... ITF

Bit of a nothing week at the end, disapointed that we droped back from £5.60, however thats because im in and greedy! Bonz, im hoping that they try and keep that divi at 7% - 8% mark, there is still info on there website that they are intending to increase the divi up and up, the ri has been hidden away on the website now so Im hoping that I get my full divi on my new shares! Like I said im greedy! Have a great weekend.... ITF

I do remember it. However Im not sure what to do, I'm thinking of selling a few NG and Tate as Im in a nice bit of profit there, however the markets seam to have a nice bit of momentum at the moment and dont want to be locked out...... Whats your thoughts ( or anybody else, if anybody else posts on premium? ) on the rumour? Id like to sell a few bp to reduce my risk there as im in too deep for me for the long term but would like another 20p - 30p before I did that..... Thanks Osaki.... Hope you have a good day trading to make up for yesterday...... And all that petrol! ITF

Happy with the recent slow growth and reading the bellow article I'm not selling these for under £5.15..... Thoughts please! http://ftalphaville.ft.com/blog/2010/09/14/342836/has-harbinger-sold-out-of-tate-lyle/ ITF

Evening boss..... Just a quick message to say hi..... I'm hoping bp will be above 417 as I'm in deep there! I have a nice long open on sterling and may close it tomorrow.... My portfolio has not looked this good in ages, something will happen! Speak soon.... ITF

Very true.... If the rights issue was 2 for 5 at £3.35 for each of the new shares and we add 5 x shares at £7.00 each (old high) then that would mean an average of £5.95 each share average..... Does that make sense? So taking into account the RI then break even for the same would be £5.95? Is that right? I wonder how attractive the dividend at the lower price is to investors now? I think we will see £6 by Christmas quite easily ( we hope!) Regards! ITF

I make that £5.60 and yes that will do me nicely..... Question is what happens next week?!?! SMFC - I was looking at the 5 year chart of NG today..... she was well over £7 in late 2007! What do you think?! Have a great weekend all...... ITF

Il take that! Not bad for a week! Il be looking forward to next week to see whats in store, maybe I stand a chance of getting me £5! Thatl be nice, will tie in with some other funds and will get a chance to diversify my portfolio a bit for the long term..... I read that the UK will hopefully leading the divi growth with somehing like +11% in 2011! That will be nice! ITF
