Ahhhh feck.....

I started off having a couple of funds. Held them for 5 years and made an average of 10% a year. But they can go up as well as down. I would say my 10% was extremely lucky and if I were to do again I wouldn't expect that. Back in the day I had a money builder fund and an emerging markets one. They don't really interest me at the moment.

I didn't pay them as much daily attention as I do my current portfolio.

One is not necessarily better than the other and the same risk / rewards apply. At the end of the day you choose your own risk with all.

Can fund managers make mistakes? Absolutely.

You also can pay a reasonable annual percentage as a fee on having that fund.

I think you should do some more research into them. But bare in mind where your source is from as their own media will be geared to influence your mind into buying them.

having difficulty finding past dividends shown as a percentage for rr. but on a back of a *** packet, the last dividend was october 2019 when ex div share price was 208-214 for the day. 4.6p per share was the dividend paid which is approximately 2%.

will this really entice large fund managers when inflation far outstrips this? i would also suspect an introductory dividend due to our struggles the last few years would not be at the same levels as before?

so might it be better just to continue paying off rr debt? a 2% dividend doesn't really entice me. more concerned about continual share price growth..

any thoughts on the matter from those more knowledgeable?

Personal finances are a private matter, most tend not to brag about their holdings however large or small. Rest assured the private investor trades have little effect on the share price as it is a marginal percentage so I wouldnt be concerned about it.

Happy to have a 100% ROI, all held within ISA wrapper. My 1 year old son has beat me in his Junior ISA at 120% 😍

I have a fair way to go for my target so will be leaving RR alone. Intrigued what US opening shall bring. Historically they bring us down, but we'll find out in a few hours.

I'll continue to focus on my non RR shares outside of my ISA for the time being.

Hope everyone is happy with results and if you need to cash in, a profit is a profit. Do what is right for you.

Rises they are 🧘

I'm remaining conservative as there is a considerable delay between sales and earnings with this company. We still have a sizeable debt and now no longer anymore assets to dispose of to my knowledge to reduce it by any meaningful amount.

Not expecting too much difference from the 150-160 range, but as always happy to be proved otherwise.

Stockmonkey, these spikes happen across the whole market with h different shares and at different times. You may see it every few months or so. They never happened and are just an occasional glitch.

I did dabble in crypto a couple of years ago, I broke even in the end but I find the whole concept personally a bit of a Ponzi scheme. Each to their own though.

I have friends who are heavily invested and I am deeply concerned with what they think they will achieve..

I also highly recommend the BBC podcast The Missing Crypto Queen 😁

If 30 billion plus is not so much of an issue, I'd be très surprised 😄

No it doesn't matter who you ISA with. But me personally I avoid like the plague cash ISAs as the returns are pathetic. I have always stocks and shares ISA with trading platforms. I use IG and my son uses HL. Banking and fund platforms I have used previously have been laughable in their limitations and delays of live data. I have used my son's HL and find it also lacking and basic. IG I believe is leap years ahead.

It's Friday though.. everything drops on a Friday 🤦

By gum it works 😁👌

Received this message from LSE with regards to previous. Haven't tried it yet though...

But... how do you remove the floating LSE video presentations? It's doing my nut in every time I change a page!

There used to be an option for removing it but I can't find it anymore / forgotten, or was it disabled in the last website update? ☹️

Fairly stagnant at the moment hey chaps..

There's another strike in the pipeline chief. But I agree it's falling far more than it should be with all the good press...

Bear in mind the decommissioning costs of Centrica's North Sea assets, the gravy train won't last for too much longer..

I would expect as a seasoned gambler you would be aware that the ship must be outside of territorial waters for the casino to be open legally.
