Primetime51 - It's true VOD is up ~10p from when I sold - VOD has been a slow go for holders mind...

BT currently sitting at ~£1.76p - well that's only ~26p above what I sold out for.

I've made profits faster in other stock since then. Plus my sales out from BT & VOD allowed me to further boost my cash pot, rainy day buffer, too. All is good over here, You've definitely no need to worry about me wee padawan😎👍- Happy to report, still no losses here too 😎

Macy are you invested here?

As I posted on SSPG board:

GBG results fell a little short for my liking (only slightly but... something which in the end contributed to my decision).

hen there's the added complexity of the ongoing Budget fallout, which I think has completely trashed the reputation of this Labour Gov - May elections look teed up to be utter carnage for this Lab administration & there could well be calls for a new Labour PM to takeover... A new PM may want to free up some further cash, it'd be a straightforward one to roll back on digital ID (OBR indicated £1.8bn, Gov disputes this saying that's an early estimate so may be cheaper). Anyway, any new PM would surely need to do something to sure up their political capital, getting rid of unpopular Gov ID seems an obvious choice to me - so I now calculate GBG could be over-valued, hence my decision to sell. Potentially, with ongoing market turbulence & weak growth GBG could drop to £2 IMV.

Guess we shall see what happens! Just my opinion - feel free to share if you've a different view pls.

Hi Macy - Well I realised a 10% return (from mid-Jul to Dec) which is fairly decent. The GBG results fell a little short for my liking (only slightly but... something which in the end contributed to my decision).

Then there's the added complexity of the ongoing Budget fallout, which I think has completely trashed the reputation of this Labour Gov - May elections look teed up to be utter carnage for this Lab administration & there could well be calls for a new Labour PM to takeover...

As for SSPG - RNS coming out tomorrow, I'm holding - still much turbulence out there and plenty of accumulating opportunity.

Going from strength to strength... lol

If UBS are rating this at 800p (750) then IMV time to sell (not that I'm holding any here at the minute of course). Looking out for the right entry price, has to be sub 400p though 👍

AimMaster2018- where do you reckon the floor is on this bitcoin drop? I dont invest in bitcoin but find it interesting watching how it's developed as a so called 'investment' (even though it appears like a Ponzi scheme to me).

As for CPI... TU soon, what are ppl reckoning on SP direction? I'm reckoning FCF will be delayed, additional 'unexpected' expenditure i.e. more jam tomorrow.

DYOR - IMO

Perfectly reasonable for you to disagree tbf👍

Starmer seemingly confessing he knew, as per the OBR updates which rolled in... He and the Chancellor must now both resign.

Fair play Carrington & FWIW I've sold up my GBG investment, as if Starmer goes whoever takes over could scrap the Gov Digital ID plans.

I haven't dropped any of my shares here in SSPG though, as I think it'll carry on growing in the rest of the world.

I see UK gilts have sold off again ,on political turbulence - at a guess they're now charging an instability/moron premium for Reeves blunders, so she has to go IMV.

DYOR

Heatseeker77 - Corbyn & Sultana are a disgrace, provides plenty of comedy mind - their party conference this weekend was a total shambles lol

Trisor what a load of nonsense your talk. Anyways popcorn 🍿 at the ready. 10.30am the PM will Kiersplain to us why the Chancellor didnt lie. Two things are crystal clear to me,

1. Reeves & him will go down together, fast too- as both Reeves (yesterday) & Darren Jones (this morning) tied him to the Chancellor with their deceit during the budget process. He will not be able to win with an 'oh but think of the Children & NHS narrative' it just

2. A Cabinet Minister, having fired the starting gun with their Times exclusive last night, looks bound to strike following today's Starmer speech with further intel no doubt - they'll be motivated by a wish to have this over fast and avoid any drawn out leadership contest IMV, given May locals coming up fast!

They're my opinions - of course anything could happen! DYOR - IMO

Starmer looking vulnerable & Reeves definitely has to go for sure. Potentially this could sink Starmer's digital ID plans so I've sold up here for profit 📈👍

DYOR - IMO

Many defended Boris/Truss & Sunak lies. Prolonging the pain for the nation.

Reeves clearly mis-led and lied here, she has to go. Pretty clear cut IMV.

UK gilts could swing wildly when markets open tomorrow.

IMV Reeves & Starmer could be gone by the middle of the week, perhaps if they cling on & tough it out a little longer but definitely not till May elections now IMV.

Streeting, Nandy (Burnham et al would be likely to back her) or Mahmood look the most viable contenders for next PM. Stock up on popcorn 🍿 as this week promises to be packed full of No.10 & No.11 drama IMO!

Reeves must go, and fast too as she blatantly lied to the nation.

Budget amendments required too by any newly appointed Chancellor. If Starmer cannot sack her, then he has to be ousted with her.

Fortunately, many Labour voters/members getting their letters in calling for her sacking, including me.

The bonf markets haven't even been that good since her budget, so she hasn't delivered the result which was needed by this budget.

As I'd reckoned, Reeves position looking untenable.

It'll be a difficult start to trading early next week. Political instability, gilts still elevated and Airliner chaos (Airbus A320 Recall doing some economic damage 😬

DYOR - IMO

Davethehorse - quite possibly yes, I think combo of Chancellor on the ropes and the Airbus issues will mean some tough trading early next week 😬

Does appear I was correct about Reeves. Sooner she falls on her sword and is replaced the better 🤞

Beatrootjuice - could have sent it sub 400p had the news broken during trading hrs.

Wowsers, that looks pretty major tbf 😬

To close the position they have to buy back the shares at the going rate. They can put up more cash to cover their open position i.e. to try to hope the SP rise is temporary, if they believe they called it correctly and have confidence it'll drop again and deliver them profit. But.. if they get it wrong and the SP just continues upwards then it can end up amplifying their existing losses even further.

It's why I don't short - I can't take the higher risk levels involved.
