Dan promises promises ?, I hope your right though, it would improve the mood here if we could see this making it's way towards 80p

Garonnne, i was only joking of course, yes you need the patience of a saint here

best of luck

Garonne, LSE rules your only only allowed 3 moan a day, if it was any other share it would only be 1

Bad inflation figures expected to come out in the US tomorrow get your tin hats on ready

Not been a very good start to 2024 let's hope the next season will be better, i'm afraid to say to much in case Aveo tells me to sell up, but it was another anti climax here again unfortunately

Dan, it seems like bloo was a naughty pupil after all, apologise to you, keep up the good work

not sure what's going on here, but if it keeps on rising i don't care ;-)

More of the same please, more ladders and less of those nasty snakes

Although i'm not too concerned about the current low sp, i have to be honest i would feel more confident about putting more money in here if it was a lot higher, i would have expected at least £2.60 and rising higher up to exdiv, i realise these are difficult times but Aviva seems to be rising at a much faster rate, if it can't reach a high figure at this time of year, i will be thinking how low it could drop after exdiv, come on lgen show us your muscles and keep up with inflation for us

Well all of us who have been invested here from 2018 can sympathise with the last few posts, we all know where this has been, the question is now can this increase from it's current price of 66.25p, well i hope so, i will be keeping my fingers crossed for all of us, old and new investors

This is one of 3 of my favourite shares that I will be holding onto, hopefully this will keep growing, but should it drop back to 3.80 again in the summer I will top up again

Maybetoday, I will keep you company and take the dividend, unless this is over £3 by April, but very unlikely this year I think

Dan, I hope we all have a good week mate, let's hope theirs some substance in these rumours, this could be the best break we've had here for a long time, we badly need something to put a bit of a spark back into this share and something to attract the big investors

71 for me please roofer

Cheers

Dan sometimes you need to hold your hand up mate, you can be a bit over critical sometimes

Hi ZAC, same here I currently have, fundsmith/fidelity index world/lgen future world/lgen global tech/lgen int index/lgen us index/rathbone global/and hl select uk growth, sadly the latter UK fund is the only poor performer 35% over 5 years

I want to keep the 3 UK shares that are currently in profit, that's lgen/aviv and mng just to keep some exposure to the UK, but my underperforming shares that are currently in loss, it looks like it;s going to take some time before i can sell them off without taking a loss, but will be glad to get rid of a few of them and hopefully have a portfolio of around 70% funds,

will be much easier to sell down for drawdown purposes as well, as hl don't charge for buying or selling funds

sometimes you have to learn the hard way before realising what's working best for your circumstances

Zac, all of my funds are booming at the moment except my poor performing hl select UK growth fund that's only grown by 35% in the last 5 years, being conscious though that the american markets maybe close to reaching there peak and a possibility of a pull back, what is your best performing non American funds

Dan, fireworks on Monday, now that would be something to celebrate, don't even mind if it's just a rumour as long as it keeps pushing the price up

Have a good weekend mate

Stumpy, I tossed that coin and it came up heads lol

Let's do a bit of coin tossing then shall we, heads it goes up tails down, come on guys none of us have got a clue, otherwise we could get very rich

Garonne, I'm definitely no expert but company's with high debt will suffer the most in times oh high inflation and interest rates, we don't know of course but hopefully this has reached it's bottom price, i'm in no hurry to sell and just can't bring myself to sell at this very low price, and it's still paying a dividend at the moment, but you will have to make your own decision on what you feel is best for yourself and not take much notice of what goes on here, but best of luck

Avocet123, yes it is old news that Vodafone has been dropping in value since 2018, but unfortunately it hasn't changed direction yet, I would like to think this is a very undervalued price for this share and there is at least some hope for it to start increasing some time this year, but by how much it will increase and how long it will take to recover i have no idea, with a recession in Germany and the UK we could be in for a long wait, the big question is will it all be worth it? I wish i knew the answer to that one, nice jump up today with Lloyds announcing better than expected profits also Aviva jumping up on expectations of good results, Vodafone is not the easiest share to be invested in for sure, what are your thoughts on it?

Garonne, unfortunately most shares are doing badly at the moment, and i can't see it changing until we get news on inflation and interest rates dropping, hopefully we won't have to wait too long, it seems most people are more concerned about gutters comments and using him as a punch bag than talking about how the share price is doing, why everyone's so bothered about his comments i don't know, he's obviously enjoying winding everyone up, but he's not responsible for the share price dropping

Vulture1 RE: Robleo UK for dividends US for growth is my approach

yes i agree i do the same myself, the point i was trying to make though is i'm more concerned about the performance of shares, its not much good getting dividends in one hand and capital loss in another, unfortunately the don't all live up to our expectations

T

I don't know about the rest of you, but i'm finding it difficult to get much growth from shares at the moment, taking a look at my portfolio, i have 8 shares 4 of them are in profit and 4 are in loss, so the profits from the good one's are getting cancelled out by the bad ones, if i then look at my 8 funds the difference here is they are all in profit and slowly growing, so if you are only invested in Lgen then think yourself lucky, yes it would be nice to see some growth in the sp, but as long as you are not in capital loss and getting a generous dividend then there's not much to complain about, just like Zac i will be reducing my exposure to single shares in due course, just holding on to a few of my more reliable on's like lgen/aviva,

hope the rest of you guys are having better luck with your share picking and they are all in profit
