Nice.

100P - Wow! Hard to resist but have decided it's best to stand back for a while and watch the bear chew up all in its path.

Glad to hear that you took notice of my earlier warning.

Well, I really should stop as I have two truckloads now and I've missed my chance today but if it slips again on Monday I might be tempted - a yield of more than 5% is not to be sniffed at.

Yep. He's normally a long term holder of positions in companies. Disappointing performance of his funds recently but hard to argue about his choices over the long term.

I'm sure other majors will be thinking along the same lines.

Roll Up Roll Up - place your orders for electrolysers if you don't want to get left behind in the rush!

Advert in Daily Telegraph this weekend and says "BACK ON SALE" for cruise code SU047. Anyone know what that means? Lots of cancellations so they suddenly have lots of availability where before it had been sold out?? Or something else?

Just interested.

Back again and picked up some more @ 106.60P

Positive write up and HOLD rating in today's Daily Telegraph

Blimey! Closed @ 107.60P
At this rate I'll soon be buying at the same price as I started this journey - 98.56P

Maybe I should top up every other day instead of every day given the direction of travel.

As promised, dipped in again for a few more @ 108.796P

Neil - probably doesn't really matter. All that publicity he got led to big increase in CD sales and downloads on alternative sites (good for Hypgnosis)
Ukraine - whatever happens isn't going to stop people downloading, listening on radio or going to concerts
Market sell off. probably but that's one reason why I like this. see above
Next catalogue valuation/sector becoming too hot. Yes it is becoming hot and that should support catalogue valuation
Lack of activity with new catalogues - that's my one real grumble.

Told you. Closed at 109.20P
I'll be back tomorrow.

Who knows but a pretty reliable indicator is that if I'm buying then it has further to fall.

Ouch! Fingers smarting from that falling knife.
But couldn't resist so picked up some more today @ 110.40P.

Probably have more blood on my hands now..

Took the opportunity to pick up a few more @ 113.73P - I make it that I'm getting a yield of 4.62% on these so happy to buy and forget.
