Only a small holding for me, sold my shares in Shell after holding for many years and bought gilts TR38 below par paying a coupon of 4.75% for the next 15 years for retirement income - safe and boring hopefully ;-)
Invested in Bips and a few FTSE 100 companies offering high yields which will hopefully benefit from interest rates falling next year
First time investing in a investment trust so bit of a learning curve for me, so happy to read your posts and increase my knowledge :-)
Very positive half year report, the nearly 2% share price drop seems a bit harsh
Yeah, ticking up nicely with more to come next year fingers crossed
I had the first coupon payment too, which i've used to increase my holdings in TW.
Thanks for posting Monkshood, just wanted to let you know your posts are appreciated :-)

Very disappointing, you would expect a managed fund to be more proactive and to have moved out of underperforming assets sooner
One problem with these funds is that the management get paid regardless of if they deliver or not
Hmm
Also want the fully legal contracts to be honoured.. They would surely stand up and win if the oil companies went to arbitration over it. However no one wants the time delay.
What if Iraq argues that KRG had no right to agree to those contracts as they are not constitutional under Iraq law
That is my concern also, that the new Profit SA will not be as generous as the existing Production SA and what will the GKP do, accept the new Profit SA or go to arbitration which could last years
Its hard to value GKP unless we know the terms of the new Profit SA
Nice rise today, be interesting to see what tomorrow's UK inflation data looks like 🙂
Hmm, bought in this morning, feels like the bottom for house builders, good trading update, like the dividend yield and policy, hopefully be here for a few years as interest rates come down and house builders go up
Labour have some ambitious plans for house building and lots of pent up demand out there
Good luck to all investors
