Fidelity finally showed up with the Corporate Action. I had two emails (one each for ISA and SIPP). Fidelity did not state how much their fees would be for the transaction, and I could find nothing on their website.

@ClimbingWooster: your post reported.

I watchlist on LSE (and own shares in) five different AIM companies. They include RKH, BOR, MATD, ORR and WTE. Without exception this is the worst LSE board.

My holdings are not huge (typically ~8-10k in each)... and I come here for inspiration, company news, thoughtful dialogue and engagement. See ORR for a couple of posters that provide thoughtful technical input. MATD is my largest holding and I would like a considered view of where we are heading. And yet what I get here is worse than my teenage daughters' weekly spats on Snapchat and ThickTok. Ladies, sort yourself out!

Still nothing from Fidelity... worth that monthly fee (not)!

Thanks JPDM, I feel a little easier now.

My best, LF.

Have any fidelity customers had a message yet about the option? I look everyday but still nothing yet. And for the fees I pay I would expect a better service.

Thanks. LF

I was going to ask the same question. I hold my shares with Fidelity, in both a SIPP and an ISA but have seen no messages from Fidelity asking if I would like to take up the purchase, which I would. Is this because Fido hold the shares in a nominee a/c?

Thanks and Merry Christmas

Sorry that should read: a FTSE100 PLC.

Thanks BIKWIK, I have been following/experimenting/observing them for the company (a PLC) that I work for. And I have to say they are pretty good indicator. Your explanation makes sense to me.

"Why can’t any be sold? I don’t want to but it’s not a sign of strength?"

It is the same on the Fidelity platform, I cannot get a quote. I just bought a few (using some cash that was in my AJ Bell a/c) but that was only £170. I hit "buy" to see if they would go through.

@BIKWIK " Price is holding nicely in the upper half of the bollinger band"

Just for my understanding: I do look at Bollinger bands and can see that they are often very good indicators. But, I am often confused as to what scale to use, i.e. day, month, 3 mos, etc. I keep watching Youtube videos hoping to get a better appreciation but I am still confused.

Thanks, LF

"Santos1 - I'm guessing you live in London if you're paying £7 a pint?

£1.49 for a pint of real ale in spoons round here (or £1.10 if you can stomach Worthies). Average price in most pubs about £4.

I thought I was being shafted paying about £5.50 a pint when I was up in York recently. £7 is ridiculous lol"

£6.50 - £7 is getting the norm is Kent. I nearly fell over last Sunday when I saw a glass of wine I had just bought was £11.40... I need some of these shares to increase in value just to pay my bar tab.

"RKH is definitely the better buy..."

Do you not think that the market will not sweep up BOR in a fever of excitement for the FI. As of today I am 17% down on BOR, but I think it has a lot more to give than RKH. My RKH holding is trivial but i get the sense that a lot of the value has been priced in already. Or have I got this wrong.

Hmmm, this is a conundrum of the most perplexing nature. Which of these splendid establishments is able to yield dancing gals, up to the minute oil knowledge and a curious arrangement of staff and customers. And to think I had previously constrained my research to candles and stochastic oscillators. I sense I may have wasted my time.

"Whilst I take the Sharkeys stuff with a pinch of salt"

Can someone tell me where this possibly imaginary "Sharkeys Bar" is (or imagined to be), please? While it is most amusing to read, and lightens the mood compared to some other rather more aggressive/combative boards (MATD as one example) it would be nice to enhance my illusory experience and imagine I was among the dancing gals.

I have every sympathy with this poster's point about knowing how the industry works, and the comment about what it takes to build a 500k long pipeline.

Sadly, the stock market seems to operate in a semi-bubble where decisions are based on sentiment, partial knowledge or misunderstandings of key data. I work for a large FTSE100 corporation and occasionally look at the nonsense on the LSE chat board for my company. The posts there show almost no understanding of the lifecycle of projects, the payback periods involved or how "news" relates to revenue. And yet there is a continuous swirl of misinformation and misunderstanding that generates pages of debate. All of it wrong. And yet those that are wrong, are making buy and sell decisions and thus to a large extent driving the market (of retail decision making).

If I translate that to this sector (which I know not a lot about) I have to conclude that the share price will follow sentiment and misunderstanding, some chart-ography, and large dollop of herd-behaviour. When the herd starts to move I hope we will be in clover. I try to understand the fundamentals of deciding if this is a good company or bad company, but believe ultimately the SP will be driven by numpties.

As a recent user new to this board, and as a buyer of very very modest means (less than 3k (but that is enough for me)) it is so frustrating. There is some real gems of information on here, and some contributors who clearly have lots of knowledge. But why are there no moderators? I understand the concept of ramping (and i guess de-ramping) and I would imagine they can spotted with a little care and attention. But why the degeneration into some behaviour I have seen here?

This could be so much better with some effective moderation. I wonder how many genuine investors like myself (with my measly tuppence-halfpenny investment) go elsewhere.

I do not understand the LSE share trades page. I put a buy through (via Fidelity into my SIPP) at 08:50. It was not a big sum, just a few hundred pounds of tax relief that had trickled through so I plumped to top up my MATD shares. But the trade has not shown all morning, nor have my similar trade for BOR. Does the LSE page "lump" trades together, or is it the MMs doing that. As an amateur I am confused.

Did they mention any plans to put the presentations onto their website, or Youtube? I only hold a very modest amount but would still be interested in seeing the presentations. Thanks for feedback, so far. LF
