A mixed update - the most interesting statement maybe? ''Having sought external advice from venture capital firms and indeed specialty gaming advisers, we continue to consider ourselves to be undervalued on our metrics and, indeed, our potential growth opportunity in the USA. We remain open to discussion with potential partners and will keep shareholders fully informed of developments in this matter.''
Greencoat UK Wind is another option. The £2.6bn trust invests in renewable energy wind projects and links its dividend to inflation. Mr Heathcoat Amory said the Government's green ambitions supported the fund's prospects.
“There is huge growth required in renewable infrastructure for the UK to hit its climate targets,” he said.
The trust boasts a yield of 5.5pc, although as with many “green” stocks, shares have been bumped higher due to the rise of ethical investing and currently trade at a premium of 8pc to its assets.
I’ve been in for a while and have tended to sell 1/2 if a share price doubles - it’s served me well. I also needed the cash for the final school bill, so even more ‘reason’ to sell 1/2! I’m now going to hold on - as I can see that it can be a very attractive acquisition for some of the bigger players.
Email I received from MARS re their Privilege Card:
''As a result of the impact of the pandemic, we will no longer be issuing Privilege cards to new shareholders from 01 October 2020. In the current challenging economic climate, the Company is reviewing all costs across the business, looking at how best to support our pubs and reward our loyal customers. We are working on a new wider reward system for all who use our pubs and lodges and hope to announce further details soon.
If however you purchased the shares before 01 October 2020, please provide evidence of your holding (copy of a contract note for example) and I can arrange for a card to be posted to you.''
I'm able to buy at 473.
'Another' article in the DT today re Ceres and ITM... JP Morgan believes that clean energy stocks are in a bubble that resembles the dot.com boom in the 90's. The article does however say all analysts who cover Ceres rate it as buy and 5 buys and 2 holds on ITM; 'however neither are profitable at the moment and are spending a lot of cash on research and development'. Ceres and ITM are described as outsiders in the race. Any views?

I imagine the proposed shake up will have a negative impact - certainly on the SP in the short term as the market digests the risk to the private sector?
..The changes would see a reduced role for the private sector, while a system of contracts being put out to tender, with health groups sometimes competing against each other, would be scrapped.''
Hi Davey2 - I certainly wouldn't impart advice and I'm sure some will say my 'logic' isn't rational but I've always thought it odd that you're either in or out. I often sell down 1/2 my shares if I want to lock some upside in / don't want to risk all on a falling market etc.
A very good development for FSFL - to be able to invest in commercial batteries. It's the way to go and can be very value creating (if optimised correctly!).
