Didn't NESF drop out of 250 in 2023/24 also? I think so if I remember rightly. It's annoying ... but at the end of the day ... I'll vote for NESF being taken over ... at 80p ... tomorrow ... GLA.

"You cannot invest heavy with this share as you dont get the market price" ... what is market price? Level II? It offers a sample of backround trading activity ... put in a limit buy to "invest heavy" ... if the liquidity of shares is not available at any instance ... a trade can't be expected to be filled - seems obvious.

Move from HL would be my suggestion.

Excuse typos ... busy doing other things.

"Hi, Does anyone know why the buy/sell price on the trading platforms to execute the shares do not reflect the prices shown on the charts?" ... a problem I picked up on 24 years ago when the first web based trading system came on line - I wrote to the LSe at the time asking for the exact data after figuring it out - but they declined for reasons.

The only "accurate" buy sell figures are AT trades at the time of execution by definition. AT trades only give a sample of background trading activity ... I tried once to make us of it but to no avail.

MMs can delay trades, and especially larger ones, while other MM trades are released with random intervals explaining why many are flagged as buy/sell incorrectly - LSE like other platforms simply make a guess at the time of positing based upon bid offer prices at the time of posting.

Bear in mind, that if a retail investor buys from a MM .. the MM has sold toy the retail investor so by definition every trade has a natched buyer and seller at the time of posting.

For daily trades, AT trade average price is probably the best indicator on level II - in my view - but that's view .. don't my advice.

It annoys me that a retail investor can be pulled up for downgrading a stock or deramping ... while the trading banks seem to get away with their ramping and deramping.

"Deutsche Bank Research cuts Liontrust Asset Management price target to 300 (350) pence - 'hold'" ... have been short for well over a year in my view .. the old Numis I reckon.

I do love it when a stock goes ex divi and rises above the previous day … cleared those bought yesterday PM GLA

Back in for a fair few.

From TRIG update a few days ago:

" strong solar resource in the UK " ... Wind down Photons up.

GLA

Easy to sell the good assets … go find a value for Red based upon turnover. Sold at 57 again bought back today yesterday profits. GLA.

"Yes selling over NAV is good for existing holders, but remember to factor that in as how they make their money. " .... Huh .... Those funds trading below NAV must be losing mega bucks. (Rolls Eyes).

Cleared at 79.99.

"To me, it always seems that there is a hindsight explanation for everything." Indeed so .... I'm limiting holding to profits .... sold at 57.1 bought back the same number this morning .... here is another rule ... the "less one cares ... the more money one makes" - Discuss ;)

Got 150. … nice.

Trumpism … contracts already agreed are binding.

Small trades on the order book smacks of computer generated HFT …. Hedge fund activity … huge damage to share price … let it drop and buy the rally

December 2024 results were in my view dire …. So hardly a surprise today … have been out for a couple of months bar a few quick day trades … 3p dividend going forwards … not interested unless the share price falls to 30p

GLA … it will be needed.

"my concern is that shares are constantly being issued over NAV" Huh ... imagine selling shares worth 226p at NAV for 233p and not being able to work out that the 7p a share profit ... goes towards the Xmas party for HFEL staff or god forbid .. holders of the fund.

I've now £212 of my own money in HFEL .... and looking forward to the quarterly Dividend of £1090 from share profits ... not by moaning on line .... but by active buying and selling .. after clearing out a load today.

Here is hoping for 190p again.

GLA.

"I was lucky enough to sell at 290p after you explained their deceptive "dividend-stripping" method and owe you a great debt of thanks."

With HFEL last at 290, JCGI was trading at 420 according to my chart .... JCGI delivers a 4.5% yield ... HFEL 11%. JCGI currently trades at 235p ..... HFEL 225p.

Recent falls have nothing to do with the recovery of the post Truss £ and the underperformance of China etc. Of course not ... all the evidence points to dividend stripping ... another for the filter.
