I’ve started investing this year.

I have been lucky enough to be working throughout lockdown and all my costs have disappeared. Childcare, commuting, weekends out because my wife can’t just have a day at home. You name it, it’s stopped going out.

So I have some spare cash and alongside trying a bottle of malt whiskey a month, I’m investing to try to maximise this opportunity.

So far, I’m about 30% up.

Mainly due to investing in the company I work for (that I won’t be talking about). But I got attracted to AML because I’m a car guy. I’m excited about Stroll and Wolff getting involved as it has always been British to be a bit **** (I’m looking at you JLR) and for us to put up with things bro g a bit **** (or, just good enough to attempt to make money).

These two guys won’t have that. They will make AML a Ferrari competitor in terms of Brand. This has no-brainer all over it just because of those two. Let alone their trusted compatriots.

My other investments are research based.

GGP
HZM
BPC

I binned off the IAG, RYA and RR stock when quarantine happened.

I enjoy fiddling with the money and making it work right now.

But I also want to keep a pot of lth. AML and the company I work for form the bulk of that.

Aside from that, I’m 40 this month and I want rid of my mortgage. As soon as possible.

I don’t want to be rich, I just don’t want to have to worry about money.

Sit on your hands Everyone.

Wasarunner.

Yes. Any upside is upside. In fact, anything over the ridiculous savings % is upside.

But yes, putting the mortgage equity in here and GGP would see me having a very good day.

As it is, it’s a good day that gets me closer.

I have to say, I’m very grateful to you gentlemen for your contributions here.

I threw in £250 (with a Halifax £12.50! Fee) at 6p.

I am learning this trading lark and thanks to all your contributions and the research available, I’m now a long way up with a lot to go it seems.

It’s a terrible shame I didn’t have £2500 to go at this with.

This is a vulgar aftermarket modified footballers car.

Not the same.

Not really. I’m similar to you.

I use a stocks and shares ISA and trading 212 as the isa feed make something’s difficult.

Trading 212 have a nasty habit of making their sell price so low that you can’t take advantage of a 2% rise and move to something else.

It’s all geared towards higher level investments.

Wish I’d started at 28.

I’m nearly 40.

Wasa,

I need £20k. (It’s 1830s -needs lime and an expert).

I have about £4K invested. Increasing every payday.

Split across;
AML,
EML
HZM
EUA
GGP
XAR

On the face of it, the next month will tell. But any helps.

I’ll also treat this as a learning exercise for later on in life when I have more disposable income (hopefully) to earn some real money from this.

I should have got into shares earlier to be honest.

I’ll have 9.3 if it’s still available please.

I’m in at about 6.5 and All I’m trying to do is make my money work better for me so I can get my house re-rendered without borrowing on my mortgage. It’s quite fun though

Fork Handles?

Or plugs?

:D

I saw your message and bought in at 6p.

I read all the research I could find and along with EUA, GGP, XAR and AML, in my first 3 months of trading with £500 play money. Of course. Lots of other shares have cost me. I am learning not to be rash with buying or selling.

I am not doing too badly. HZM in particular had no brainer all over it.

Thank you!

Thanks 3300.

I’m also an Engineer by trade, A toolmaker for linear progression tooling fwiw.

Anyhoo, Tiger will appreciate the tongue in cheek I’m sure (I hope).

Tiger100.

It has in mass manufacture. In expensive vehicles, it’s lovingly placed by 80 year old artisans who have the eye for it.

Or, British excuses for not moving with the times in manufacture.

Congratulations!

I hope to be free of my mortgage too.

Sorry Nevas not Neves.

Sorry about your losses Dimi.

On the plus side, we have seen 3300 and Neves agreeing today.

There must be a paradigm shift due surely ;).

Overtime? No.

They’ll just revert to 3, 8hr (European) shifts and rotate the staff. No overtime, no late shift bonus. Just a bit more money for everyone.

The idea of manufacturing is to de-skill processes and automate where practicable.

Even placing a badge In the same place in every vehicle is very complex yet very simple.

It should be possible to adopt mass manufacturing yet keep exclusivity. Astons are not at the Rolls Royce level of OEM customisation.

Hi Frank,

I also recognise your name from AML. I'm in here.

To be honest, it’s because people are invested emotionally.

It has less to do with the actual price and more to do with the recognition of potential/value/direction etc.

It can of course be seen as ramping but it’s not that cynical.

Just genuine interest and value of it being higher than this. Should be doing this bouncing 10-20p higher really.

I honestly hope not.

Vettel likes a solid rear end (oo, er) hence just dominance with the blown diffuser. Hamilton is the opposite. So the RP, (AMR next year) may well not suit him. Then he will be no better than stroll and spin all the time (sound familiar).

I just don’t see the promise in him of being any better than Perez. And he already brings money. So, what’s the point?

You may as well go for one of the Schumacher cousins and put an iconic name in your car.

Personally, I would love to see George Russell against Verstappen and LeClerc. Maybe Norris and Sainz in that mix too.

Overall, I don’t think Vettel is relevant anymore? If he is, it’s a one season thing.
