I hold ITs, OIECs UTs and some shares (total 32 in portfolio). I think we are at least two weeks into the bear but no-one klnows for sure until chins have hit floor! Have been trying to play safe for about a month (Ruffer Inv Co, Henderson Alternative Strats etc) but the only certain way is to dump every share and hold cash- then you have to lose dividend income and psych when to jump back in! Best of luck. We are all going to need it.

really leaves me puzzled. This could be really exciting but as some point out, history is terrible and a lot of selling even at these low prices. Only bought in recently but already underwater. If I average down (not something I am keen on), will have to be even lower. In meantime, must sit back and say 'It was only a gamble'

We are talking Brazil here, so would there by any chance be a little bit of nudge nudge trading? Sorry for being so cynical. If there is, then they will be sellers the second MAPA RNS is out!. Let's not worry about the SP then. Predict the price May 2019. I will go 65p.

Market reaction muted and still nearly 10% spread! Income funds will wake up to this soon if no-one else does.

Within a week IMO, we shall have RNS about retender of offtake. Price will drift but cheap top-ups no doubt will prevent too much damage.

callmehans had me worried so I looked again at the figures today. 2016 cash was �8.5M NEGATIVE - in brackets, not positive. So this year is much better here too. Fill up your boots, hans!

cm45 - but look at the big picture and charts - you are not wrong about this co but if it looks like a bear and it smells like .........

Top up cheap time again! (Always assuming the MAPA turns up mega quick)

Help!

If we are now in the bear market, then AIM stuff like this will get punished. Sadly, I think we are and whichever way we go, this market is likely to keep going down. Brexit adds to the conviction and the pain. Think we will either have to sweat it out or sell. Of course, if this is right, then just about everything will go down. Sorry.

Got onto site for first time and was thinking it looks interesting when I saw stew200's post saying Mr A owns loads of these. Bearing in mind his country of origin and chat about freezing the assets of wealthy Russians until they can prove their wealth is legitimate, that could be a worry going forward and inhibit the SP. Also could prevent use of a Placing. Will add to my Watch List.

It feels like time for SYNC to be adding to the seven cos in their youngbloods group. Four are now comparatively mature and the money could come from small sales of ones which have been floated. I am sure they already have their eye on a few. RNS not expected for a few months yet but this is the type on investment which can always surprise and delight.

of London retail and how Brexit will hit. Keeping on sidelines but the quality is there if SP falls too far.

No RNS for 3mths. Lets hope this is worth waiting 4

Sorry if this is old news for you, but who is the ultimate owner of the remaining 25% of Tantalite Valley mine?

You now have less and will get your big divi soon, but you will be liable for tax on it if it is outside your ISA (and subject to your personal allowance) So don't be fooled by the improved SP.

year end is end April with possible RHS judging by previous, May and June. So if figures great, likely run up in SP starting about four weeks. If uninspiring, chart will crawl back into the thirties. Time to watch.

crashed through letter-box today. Worth a browse. Says the big boat is starting to turn around and make its profits from the new mix of drugs. May be true but will need more time - at least another two years IMO. Happy bed-time reading!

Brybags - this investor just weighed up the limited info and felt it was right for the Flutter Fund. What else can you do at this time? It is a 'finger in the wind' jobbie!

Hello there. I probably didn't time it right but I have bought in here over last week as a defensive expecting markets to weaken generally as we get closer to Brexit. But markets have not weakened much and RICA Sp has dropped a bit. Unworried because its early days. Also invested in three more defensives recently. We are nearer the end of the Bull than the beginning.
