Anyone here??

For something that could be bigger than the Mag 7, surprised there's no one interested in posting

Still waiting....

Mrs Trump wore it on arrival at AirStrip One seemingly.

Should set a trend....hopefully.

Dear AlGent et al

Another article you might find interesting. Its from Barons. Surprisingly positive (some might say more accurate) than normal US coverage.

Anyway, another insight into modern China, again for those who may not have had the opportunity to have experienced and enjoyed it first hand.

And although not strictly on the subject of JCGI, you may find the attached FSMOne article Aug 2025 on 3067.hk an easy read on the general tech background in China. Trust you find it interesting.

Me too - still a loss on both JCGI and FCSS.

But take some comfort (at least) from 1 year figures:

FCSS +85%

JCGI +52%

S&P +17%

And also fact that BaBa is getting some attention in US 1 Yr + 83%.

3033.hk the HS Tech index (less constrained than the iShares equiv) also up +74

Still massive geopolitics.... various Bad Hats continue to try and restrain China, but IMO that only serves to encourage more innovation in China. Long gone are the days when they were just copiers: if youve ever spent time there or lived there, you will know what I mean.

Yep and cash back end Nov.

His English skills, comprehension and writing are phenomenal actually. Better than most. Suggest you give him a try.

Cant be bothered to read all the docs (sorry) ...never mind, my good friend DeepSeek (hes really good actually) read it for me...this is his response ( I assume he's male?).

Apologies to those who already took the time to read the guff.

" When You Get The 30 Pence

Based on this standard process, you can realistically expect the 30 pence per share to be paid into your brokerage account by the end of November 2025.

The exact date will be confirmed in future RNS announcements once the shareholder meeting dates are set.

Maybe im behind on all this, but my custodian just sent me a delisting notice for Wood. Not a suspension, but delisting. So seems there is no intention for it to ever trade again. And I guess that means the deal is done.

Sorry if you guy already know this:

DELISTING EVENT

Expected effective date : Not yet available

CANCELLATION OF ADMISSION TO LISTING ON THE OFFICIAL LIST AND TO

TRADING ON THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.

Took a few at 236.1...patient for a few more

Great post - thanks.

"....while meeting performance-based objectives saw her variable pay increase from $1.7m to $2.5m"

I wonder what possible objectives she could have met... and still produced the results she did? Shocking. +800k for nowt.

FCSS already posted a spurt 6 months ago - im sill showing a loss on it, but JCGI which i also hold has been dire.

Wheres the accountability for the managers who re running this trust?

OK - couple of days late, and trust its just because my platform set up MSTY.L for the first time ;-)

But happy to say I received the first of what I trust is many dividend payments to come.

New rate to be set next week. Lets see how this pans out. Fingers crossed.

Apologies for those who have seen this already, but here is L&G guidance for Dividends:

Dividend policy

We announced new dividend guidance in June 2024 at our Capital Markets Event. The Board intends to grow the dividend per share by 5% for full year 2024, and by 2% thereafter. In addition, the Board announced a £200m buyback in 2024, with the intention of undertaking further similar buybacks in subsequent years...... in order to return more capital to shareholders over 2024 to 2027 instead of the equivalent of maintaining the 5% per annum growth in dividends per share.

Yep - good riddance!

Just picking up on Strictly's post, and nothing new in here, but I always like a bit of confirmation bias myself, and an easy to digest summary

Enjoy!

49+% yield. Not too shabby!

I bought a few as a bit of an experiment.

As I see it though, to win at these type of things you really have to go in big, and get out fast, but I dont have the ****s to take a big position, notwithstanding Im bullish on BTC and MSTR.

See how it goes.

Will seek to compound it instead, though dont think i can operate the DRIP with my custodian - so will have to be a manual adjustment.

Its not as if my sliver will be enough to pay my 'virtual' mortgage anyway, so instead will rely on Einstein's eighth wonder of the world.
