Sold 3i infrastructure and added to 3i group which looks a good bet for the mid to long term growth.

On more reflection I revise the sp down to 790 . Just a silly guess. If it does I will buy as many as I can as the future isn’t orange it’s Darktrace. :-) have a nice week end all and keep fighting. Finance wise not actually fighting ! Waitrose wine department will be raided tomorrow . Actually there is a good wine store in Cambridge. Up the reds hic ! . YNWA.

I was tempted but on reflection I will see if I can get about 860 maybe on Monday. Just have a gut feeling it may drop a bit more. :-).

Don’t know about 200 now. But expect it will be on the 21st OCTOBER. :-)

Beginning to look more attractive still need a bit more sub 900 at least. Anyone got any views on Unilever just noticed sp is down a fair bit but with them offloading the tea business and cutting the shares in issue it might be a good move?

Oh forgot to say also selling so I can hopefully move over to AJBell faster than 6 weeks which is the norm when transferring funds .:-).

Hi Maria, my thoughts are mostly the same as What Jayne has said . To my mind it’s about making profit. That’s why I dip in and out of Darktrace . The future will I think be very good for the company although it may take another one or two interims . I have been selling my funds for two reasons one a decent correction which will happen, when who knows . But I’m happy getting no interest just holding in my accounts . As I will not lose and can buy in after it happens again when?
Bank shares I will hold as dark I will buy in and out of . Also keeping my infrastructure funds and Footsie 100 fund.

Henry, your making a big assumption interest rates don’t go up.

HKK,
Well it works ok for me. :-). I don’t usually get the top or bottom ,just in between.

So you have about two hundred and thirty thousand pounds in GSK . You must be rich.

You have got to love this share. Now await the next drop. If it does go up a fair bit I’ve still not lost and that’s the most important thing . In between time I’m gradually selling up my portfolios with Bestinvest everything is in isas so all good . I will have to open an isa with AJBELL and familiar myself with the site. Bank shares are an absolute must for the medium term future 1 - 3 years .

Cannot see my 380 now that Nat has added. He now has a considerable amount invested in volex.
Excellent news.

Maybe this will start sending the sp back up to 1600- 1700 in the not to distant future.

Well done freeposter,
I have bought and sold barc and Lloyds recently but think now is the time to buy both and hold .there have been plenty of warnings out there about inflation and market corrections and also interest rates . Therefore after the dust has settled I expect banking shares to do very good .Equites should be in for a good drop . Just my personal thoughts. :-).

As I have some volex shares that are down at the moment, rather than add I am going to wait for a market correction and see if I can buy <380. :-).

Hi Charles,
I looked at recommendations for banking shares and came up with Barclays, Lloyds, HSBC,
I have been dipping in and out of Barclays and Lloyds recently. Although Lloyds have been awful in the past they are looked upon as being a good buy. I can only assume it’s because the are the biggest mortgage lenders and so if the B of E interest rates move, Lloyds and others will be making a lot of money as they will in turn put up their interest rates. I do wish dark would get a bit of negative news so I can then buy,buy,buy. :-)

Ha, got something right, as I have M&G corporate bonds I was thinking of ditching them but decided to hold. Banks are probably not to bad a buy now in view of possible interest rate rises on the way.

Cari, Thank you very much for the information . I’ve noted my ILG has fluctuated a bit over the last month or so . Are short term gilts a better option at the moment ? Not that I’m selling my ILG with vangard. Regards Seaking.

Very good fundamentals and still low share issue too boot. Excellent buy in my view.

Excellent move by Volex.
