Glad that I made a sale at over 800p in June.

I would have been buying some back now, but as I said I can't, and not going to open an account on another platform just for

Paypoint

you can currently open a sell spread bet for Nvidia for June 2026 on IG at about 19030

''last call to sell at 87''

No thanks, I have already made a planned for sale at over 95p - without future purchases my next selling price would be at about 100p

''I've got no empathy for this either. £87k in arrears''

What is the problem for the women - could be a benefit for her - property prices have more than doubled since she walked out of the property 15 years ago and have to assume it was purchased a number of years before that.

''When the dividend is a very high 15%, even on an investment fund, the market is telling you something is wrong.''

OR ................

Quite happy for the dividend to be cut by two thirds, but they have just increased it from 2.1p per quarter to 2.11p

At under 54.6p

''KRKNF''

I am not going to lookin detail into companies that I would have no interest in purchasing.

As you should know, it is up about 750% since coming to market despite recently come off over 30% from a high.

It has a high market cap of about 1.15 Billion dollars and trading on the US over the counter market as Met1 has recently been put on. It is a profitable business on a high p/e of 75. It is up to an individual investor whether they think the forward looking growth in the business justifies paying an historic 75 times earnings for the stock or not , but obviously the forward p/e may come down considerably from that level. Is the fall back in share price a little breather on a continued upward trajectory or will there be a further fall, that is the question - but if an investor is confident of the long term prospects with a continuation of increasing profits, then trying to guess a new near term bottom is not worthwhile. Makes little difference if 3.5 is paid instead of the current 3.8 if the price goes to 10+ in 2 or 3 years

To a price where I would be buying but unfortunately all of a sudden HSBC investdirect that I use are not allowing purchases of Paypoint at the moment. I have phoned them to complain. If any other Paypoint shareholder on here also use HSBC, maybe they could also contact HSBC to complain that they are unable to make a purchase if they wanted to do so - only able to make a sale.

''Many investment companies trade at a discount to NAV''

Whether an investment company or trust trades at a discount or premium obviously comes down to demand.

3i Group have traded at a premium due to demand on the back of accelerated asset growth over a number of years that most companies/trusts have not matched. It will continue to be up to investors to decide what premium they are willing to pay to get on board the 3I Group ship, bearing in mind the continued expansion of ACTION and the future floatation possibilities. In addition within the many businesses that 3I Group invest there may turn out to be another big winner like ACTION.

When along the line from the point of 3i's investment in ACTION did they become 'irresponsible' ?

When they invested in ACTION the 3I share price was at under £4.

At what increasing 3i share price level on the back of the ACTION investment should 3I have made a sale of Action for them not to be irresponsible?

Sim

''invested in just one retail company, that being Action of Europe. I regard that as verging on irresponsible''

3i Group invest in many businesses.

The valuation of the ACTION investment has grown and grown and grown and grown and the Action business is still growing.

That is why that investment now makes up a large percentage of the 3I assets.

What was irresponsible about that outcome.

3I act in the interest of shareholders - they deem ACTION to be a good business to hold about a 62% stake in.

They have the option at some time in the future to float ACTION on the stock market.

''There was always going to be that risk of a profit warning''

What profit warning?

''my only share I never complain about has fallen 11% plus today. I think you still hold such too. A reason to worry or not?''

Make that getting towards 16% now

You should know by know that I would have posted a sale.

Yes I still hold 25% of my 188p purchase.

I think I have stated the very large premium that 3I Group had reached and a pull back was a possibility.

No worrying from me, as would the case with any of my stocks.

Pullback makes the premium now 'only' about 20%

Share price now is about 3440p
