regading biting the bullet, i have seen my profits drop to about 5% before and was prepared to crystalise the loss of profits...but luckily it went up again after that. this was sometime summer last year, i think.

fyi, u have to make mistakes sooner or later - no doubt about that. but it's all a learning process! if i were you, i'd watch my shares closely and if it reaches a point where it drops so low that i have only my principal amount left, i bite the bullet because u'd only be losing your profits. however, if the company does really have potential growth, etc. then hold on? up to u mate. the pain may not last much longer. the budget that is about to be announced could mark the point where the recovery can be confirmed - if the coalition can convince the market they are unified. next time, sell even if u are losing, perhaps at about 10% to 20% below purchase price. better to cut losses than hold on. i have about 5 shares, all losing too....but the loss is so big that i have to ride it through. good news is, i'm still about 40% up overall. =) regarding PVCS - make sure u time ur entry right(if u buy) and buy in trenches/batches.

imo, i think that depends on how much the coalition is cutting back on regeneration. well, d-day will come upon us tomorrow so good luck all. i haven't been able to find much on that. if anybody else has, do contribute. on another note, the way osbourne is asking advice from everyone - mervyn king to ex-chancellors, it's scaring me that he is such a green thumb. heaven help us!

Big_Phil - how are you mate? long time no hear. i've been more involved in stocks now. still not too late to invest in PVCS because the future is bright(powered by solar). lol Paulepo - this is what I know... latest outlook on PV :- http://www.ukmediacentre.pwc.com/News-Releases/UK-Solar-PV-market-could-grow-five-fold-in-2010-and-30-times-over-to-2015-ea5.aspx latest coalition agreement :- http://www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2010/05/new-conservative-british-govt-agrees-on-more-feed-in-tariffs so you see, it shouldn't be long before PVCS gets back to where it was. i have see the support rise from 45p to 51p and we may now be seeing new support at 55p. plus, PVCS is ISA-able! good long term investment.

either a retrace or a breather.

this is a political or financial decision? http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/jun/18/sheffield-forgemasters-loan-new-nuclear anybody here?

if RHL could get a piece of this :- http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/10347187.stm

but no public subsidies. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/jun/16/coalition-support-new-nuclear-power would appreciate if anybody else can dig up more info on where the monies could be coming from. thanks.

could u ask ur brother to dig a bit more info on rentals in UK? this article is a bit disconcerting... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/transport/5436321/White-Van-Man-faces-his-biggest-crisis.html i'm watching developments in spain closely but unsure about UK.

i was rather sure WMH interim update was due at the end of june but i see it is now end august. http://www.williamhillplc.com/wmh/investors/financial_calendar/ i'll hold off buying this for a while...

i still have time when it comes to IQE - they're not announcing interims until september. already back in here, but a small sum. will buy big if it drops to 1.87p, which is the fair price pre-special dividend, imo.

"The ONS said sales at household goods stores rose 1.7pc on the month, with electrical goods performing strongly. Sales of televisions are likely to have helped the month's figures as soccer-mad Britons splashed out on the latest technology before the World Cup in South Africa." http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/economics/7834876/UK-retail-sales-boosted-by-World-Cup.html

i believe we may have a buy-in or top-up opportunity coming up before this shoots up. good vibes coming from the coalition budget regarding renewable energy, along with obama's renewed calls to leave fossil fuels while giving BP another whack yesterday.

thought i'd get in under 180p but on seeing this bearish sentiment, am a bit wary now. wondering if this will hit 175 by tomorrow close? that's the way it rolls these days...everybody is investing short term.

are u back in IQE yet? i keep trying to buy below 16p again but i think i ain't getting it this time. may have to settle for 17p which appears to be the current support.

did they make u bend over? lol

bought a tiny bit of shares here today on the renewed SP weakness. to hold out for the long term. if mellong makes another wise move, we could fly...
