Strike123,
I brought HOC many moons ago and exited too given Gold was not in the limelight and company too small. Hence switched to FRES in 2024-25 after Silver had more use cases and seriously undervalued too. Maybe the Mexican cartels attacks are causing a bit of itchy foot in investors buying into Mexican silver mining companies.
My oil companies are Shell and BP which I brought in 2022 during covid and yielding 11% in dividends back then. Not added to oil companies because it old energy and not the future, Yet the dividends are nice and hence payback on investment is great.
Airlines, not added either as Easyjet brought around £2 level and IAG at around £1 level during covid. Was expecting these two airlines to resume their climb to ATH but the cost of living in the UK and fermented wars to kinetic wars by the West has stifle any growth in UK airlines as an investment. As for US airline buys, three words 'Boeing and Deaths' and enough said. Have exited Easyjet a few years ago and will return to invest in airlines in the next recession and not this recent dip in the markets which is early days.
