Morning all, nice and sunny here at least for now.
T I see the HOOD picked up a bit yesterday.
I sold nothing and bought nothing.
Markets looking a bit undecided today, I think we might have a good day yet will see.
Hope you all do anyway
You need to get your fantasy football teams sorted in next couple of days, if any of you do?

Hi everyone hope you are all well.
I was not best last week but am feeling better today, hopefully that will continue.
CPI making a bit of a recovery which will help my mistimed buy at 39p (top up now might become a long day trade)!
Did a bit of selling last week also bought some more TWD which has done well and I am hoping for more from.
Also bought some Intel as I guess I think they have almost been in AMD's shadow, in share performance at least. I think they will get stronger quicker now than AMD.
Sold 10% of my AMD, PUMA, and some others I can't remember now.
Funny how I like to sell the most successful shares I have and sit on the rubbish in hope.
A habit I have got stuck with, it doesn't always p5rove useless but has on many occasions.
Am thinking I will do a little more selling this week and give myself some room for manouvre, CPI could be one if it gets a bit more.
Useless piece of info. but I will say it anyway. When Neil Woodford went up in the air I read he had bought a lot in some Irish medical firm called Prothera, listed in US. It had cost dear as it had not performed as he expected. I kind of felt NW is not complete fool this could be something to dabble/invest in. I put it on my watch list and few a few months looked at it fluctuating between 10 and 12 dollars, thinking I'll get some of them next week. Never did, as i bought INTC which was on my watchlist I notcied it sitting at 53 dollars, I have forgotten it for 6 months. Too late for Mr Woodford and no good to me.
I am not concentrating enough on things I guess.
Anyway enough of me bemoaning my ineptness, have a good week y'all.
Which reminds me where is m, I remember he had not been well last time he posted, hope he is just on hols or something.

Hi everyone, have struggled to find much enthusiasm for shares this week.
Though it has not been so bad as probably clawed back half of drop from the week or so before.
Have had AMD my biggest holding helping with strong figures and rise.
Interesting T and N the possible impending doom, I have been feeling that for a few weeks now,
and had been beginning to think maybe otherwise. As N says there has been a lot built around good results.
Results that seem good largely because they are being compared to last figures that were so bad from Covid.
There is also the lack of convincing control of the coronavirus and its variations, the worry they might yet run amok again.
So I don't know am often thinking I will have a big sell out before things fall.
It took the market long enough to catch up with warnings the first time, so maybe we will crash again.
I kind of don't think so, but think I will be cashing out some stuff next week as a buffer.
Nice weekend to you all.
One last thing I saw the RNLI had been being heckled by some people for rescuing migrants from the channel. I find this astonishing, as I guess whatever that idiot Farage may have said. These people rescue endangered souls from the sea, they should only get our admiration and maybe the odd donation, like N's. How can we look on anyone, whoever they are, wherever they are from, whatever the circumstances and not believe they deserve rescuing from danger!

And would we have had the nice weather if we stayed in EU, I doubt it!
And when the sun doesn't shine we have the lovely Mr J!

Morning everyone, and I'll add my birthday best wishes for T.
My sister got back to Texas for Friday all went well except the flight was delayed nearly 5 hours.
In the end it suited her as found it easier to adjust back some jetlag getting in later.
Had great weather while she was here and we all enjoyed ourselves despite the restrictions.
Dropped her at LHR on Thursday and went on to London as I had a bone biopsy at Guys on Friday.
Something I would would not recommend, it is quite painful, will see from results whether it was worth it.
Things looking a little grim for my shares right now, though have small bright spot a half holding in CRDA.
Still well off my recent highs, with Xiaomi doing particularly poorly
Did buy a couple of things last week PMG and AGM which have done nothing.
Some good results in Olympics, Tom Daley especially, my daughter was selected for diving training at Crystal Palace about same time as he came on the scene. So he has always been a family favourite. She also was and is a very good swimmer and was a lifeguard at Wimbledon pool and met Adam Peaty when he did a promo visit. So it was a bit of a double for us, even if admittedly tenuous.
That's all from me for now, no plans waiting to see if market can decide where it is heading before either some selling or risking a bit more capital from my saving reserves.
Hope you all do well.

Morning everyone, as O and T have said not good start today.
Sister here and passed both tests, so now she is free of quarantine for last few days of time here.
Not much to report from her as tips for trans-atlantic trips, it has all gone OK just extra stressful and costly.
Has been a bad week or two for my shares, from highs a fortnight ago am down maybe 6-7%.
Hopefully things will get better this week, but not at all sure they will.
Lovely day and already hot!
Good luck to you all.

Morning, spoke too soon about p/f's doing okay, today is looking pretty ugly.
T and V thanks, everything good so far, sleeping arrangements sorted, sister is on flight and well on way lands at Heathrow 11:20 and can see is on schedule. She even had time to watch the football before going to airport, which cheered her up like us all I expect.
She has had to get vaccinated up, and she has already had Covid, she has had to pre arrange and pay for 2 tests I think for 5th and 8th days of 10 day quarantine at home. If those tests prove negative then she need not continue quarantine. (Not sure what happens if they are positive ... especially for getting back etc.) I think that's it for coming here, she will have things to be in order to go back which I will let you know about. A friend is picking her up and dropping her here so we will see her at :30 maybe will have to see how long ot takes to get through customs etc..
Good day to everyone

Morning everyone,
m hope you are on the mend and getting better, CPI does not seem to be doing anything to cheer you up.
It's a busy time for me at the moment, my daughter has moved back into our London flat (and one time home) from her uni time in Glasgow. She is now here at my mums in Oxon with boyfriend in tow. We have my sister flying in from Houston tomorrow, and have to fit everyone into mums 3 bedrooms. I have been using the little room (thats bedroom not toilet!) as a study so am going to have to move my desk and junk out and set up beds so it will be a hard day.
V if my sister experiences anything that might help with your planned Florida trip I will post it. She is already pretty fed up with form filling in, booking tests, vaccinations and changes in policies always hanging over her first trip back in nearly 2 years. The flying on it's own is usually enough to stress her out, so she has had a tough time of it.
Anyway on shares not much new really, sold a piece of FGP on Monday that I had bought in late April, bought some more TWD with that money. Looking out for something to dayish trade but nothing jumping out at me.
My portfolios seem to be pretty good overall, hitting highs either Monday or yesterday, they are a little of that now. Some big holdings doing well lately ALU and PUMA in particular.
Boit worried on how things are shaping up in China tech, and my Xiaomi shares, the DiDI (is that its name ride hailing thing) is upsetting thimngs. The balance of anything Chinese and western reaction is just not good or stable. I think I will hoep for a rally and sell up these shares. It's only a couple or 3 months back I was thinking of delving into more, along lines of Wuling Motors and Haier. This plan is now out for me.
Hope we all have good days health and sharewise

Morning everybody, it's Friday again, something T would normally point out, where is he?
Never sold anything yesterday, today I should sell my FGP day from end of April, I am working on days from some remote and slowly spinning planet. Thats my answer if you say what planet is he on?
Anyway things a little up this morning so hopefully good end of week will be had by all, my weeks are earth time.
o did hear about the Hariboo thing, this would have been a disaster for my daughter a few years back, but I think she has kicked the habit now. I do have a HGV license, it's called an LGV now, another thing ruined by EU, bring back the old little red HGV, then we will have the drivers I'm sure!
Good day everyone

No-one up yet, come on.
Things looking good today, hoping will be able to do some selling later as I am pretty much all invested.
Weather okay but a little cloudy.
Nice day everyone, and don't stay in bed all day!

Hello and good afternoon, another post to keep the numbers up or garry barlow will catch up.

Just bought INVP as a shot at day/short term trade. Continuing my practice of doing these things alongside of a holding.
CPI which was my Friday effort is not doing well, below my buy price, looking like it might turn into a longer term average down. BB a bet at same time is not going anywhere much right now. So need sit tight.
Did sell AGM yesterday, selling less shares but getting money back and keeping 270 shares as averaging down for the long term which on that share I have little faith in.
Most of my 33 holdings (wife and daughters p/f's included) down, some by fair chunk particularly my own p/f, still it has the main winner in it too, which is AMD, though it just halves my losses. I do need to rationalise these holdings, at least a bit< I think I have only added to them this last year or so.
Been quite nice this afternoon, sun shining much of time, but not shining on my investments!
Good evening all, no football to entertain us, looking forward to Friday.

Afternoon, how was your days?
o .. I spent a lot of time thinking why call him David Javid, before I worked it out, not terribly clever, I am!
Most of my chunkier holdings have struggled today, the banks, oil, telecoms and commods.AZN did okay and GSK not bad.
My Friday stabs at day trading not succeeded yet at least BB. okay but need and expect more yet. CPI did the trading water trick.
The earlier in week AGM may yet get to be sold, I am thinking tomorrow will keep some for my average on what I held, and get my buying money back I think!
N Still not got the Yellow Cake, you did okay on that, though I think it would have been sound to hold. Might add some tom..
Good eveing everyone.

He might have actually been a lib deb, but not a Lib Dem

Morning, do you lot not realise that as far as the PM is concerned the matter is closed.
It's odd how some of these players get you to change your minds about predecessors.
May now looks competent and strong.
Ed Milliband able and charming.
Jeremy Hunt insightful and proper.
o ... bit of a radical, pun intended, condemnation of the Lib D's. As a one time Liberal voter I have to point out Jeremy Thorpe was never a lib deb, and you are omitting the man of Steele. And what about Paddy pantsdown, he would have given Han**** a run for his money.
Charles Kennedy was a lovely man, but lovely men are not always best for job. Boris was he once a lovely man, not sure but close.
Bring on Caroline Lucas...., not entirely joking either.

Sorry about all the posts and the rudeness.
Whoops another post, no more rudeness though so things are improving!

Just bought some BB. might be a weekend trade!
Nice weekend to you all, hope you have had good weeks, N I know you weren't hope Friday has been better, most in my p/f's have had a crap time too.

Out of them being supermarkets, my kind of jokes don't exactly work unless you fill in the blanks.

Also i am in London for a check on my flat, got Evening Standard yesterday. Had an article on the masses exodus from London. The EU boys going home where all you northerners wanted them, and then your rich mates moving out into bigger houses in the country from their pokey flats like mine. (only joking about you northerners hopefully you won't take it too seriously ... there's enough political junk posted else where on General chat).
Anyway my point here is there will be significant impact on all sorts of things here in London and round about, restaurants and construction struggling for staff, transport under utilised etc etc

Read an interesting article in my Guardian weekly mag., last week about the rising, dark warehouse and grocery rapid delivery services springing up everywhere. is it more nipping away at supermarkets share. You might think not.
But the pandemic as given them a lift off, and if I look at how my daughter and a few other younguns shop
it might just be.
I am thinking I might get out of them in near future, I am not in one now, I mean the shares!

Hi everyone,
S I used to teach motor vehicle at college, that was a common mistake remove or refit the tyre when meaning the wheel (and tyre). Was one of my bug bears (is that right term?). So you would have gone to top of class realising your mistake and correcting it, well done.
m I have followed you into a CPI buy, I already hold at a ludicrous average so can treat it as a day trade or average down, depending how I feel and price goes.
I made a mistake not selling the AGM and TWD's that shot up in a day, they have fallen back/traded water since!
Live and learn should listen more to T
