T - no, not got a PS5 yet, that's why I am up at silly O'Clock as John Lewis may have some at 4am ... DOH! Other shops even with 15000 machines are gone in minutes ... I sat in 3 queues on Game website last week waiting to even get on the site to put a PS5 in my basket .. then rapidly climbed the wait list to be told all gone!

S - just watch my trades/tips and do the opposite! As you reminded me, I said watch what's falling and buy... when I sell buy!

C - I did way better trading the likes of MCRO, CCL, OCDO etc. when I started way back in Feb 2020 ... than when I tried to diversify to a wider share p/f, or shares with divi's. I got spiked and bought too high or got stuck with high priced shares as I bought just before a fall while trading...
So looks like I am an investor for a few weeks / months until some like GGP, especially Plus get better.

T - yes, I have a strategy on GGP, SNG and Plus; happy to sell all Plus once break even / profit. Sell GGP once they get back into the 30's, keeping a moderate amount of shares back in case of the rocket!!! SNG was just a "money maker" so once in profit they can go!

Unfortunately, we all seem to be down in overall value in our holdings p/f, despite good weekly profits... so it will all turn around in a short time. Think positive.

Enjoy!

Ohh yeah, covid jab booked for 16 March ans 3 June.
OH hadn't had letter but logged on anyway, and lo and behold any one over 56 even with no letter can nook a jab.
That should cover all the Brigade I guess!

Good.
We are still booked to fly to Florida early August ( put back from last year ) so hoping all goes to govt. plan on opening up, and USA get their act together!

V

Howdy all,

C - yes, I've been quiet lately, nothing happening on the trading front as I wait on Plus / GGP / SNG recovering! And as I put profits into GGP when SP fell!!!

I can't keep up my high power full tilt shining wit all the time!!

Re: P/f values .... 23% down on ISA, and 17% down on main fund/share account since early Feb.
Down to my minimal diversification - holding GGP, PLUS and SNG and all down ... even though over half my GGP are in the 11p/12p area, not interested in selling them at 21.75 p!
AND back to £11.95 a trade on HL as so few Feb trades!

T - your theory of 6 month-ish cycles on miners would fit the GGP rise and fall I think, maybe 2 cycles since last July.

Most of the Brigade seems to be doing OK though so good luck and I'll be back trading soon.

V

Afternoon all,

So, how was the budget for you?
No personal tax rises, no capital gains change that I saw, boost for business, self employed and future science and infrastructure. Help for hospitality, VAT etc. and stamp duty extensions.

How will that affect the shares in travel, hospitality, brewers / pubs etc.?

No action again for me today, just watching SNG,GGPO and Plus..... and spending too much time trying to buy a Playstatlon 5!!

V

O - Not to mention the squirrel tackles! :-o

V

T - cheers!

Is it just me or have the HL charts vanished???

V

M - GGP on a bounce now / shortly following Friday movement. Testing 29p soon. Suggested 45p by late April!

SNG also seem to be on a rebound, suggesting over £2 in a couple of months.

The video shows charts with a voice over by I presume Zak, explaining the trends and projections. Usually 10 companies in each presentation.

V

Scrums - in Rugby League in 2020 there were no scrums. MUCH better, faster game. The scrums are usually pointless anyway as the ball almost always goes to the back row of the team feeding in the ball....

V

Afternoon all,

T - Not really a red dwarf related weekend, just pinching a quote or two to liven up my post!
Looked at Zak Mirs 1 March video, no GGP or SNG on the list on twitter / sharetalk?? OK found it now, there are more than 1 video, the GGP one is 5 hours ago!!!

Thanks

V

"The fictional character Arnold Rimmer (from the BBC TV science fiction-comedy series Red Dwarf) is a big fan of Hammond organ music. He is particularly fond of an artist by the name of Reggie Wilson (a satirical reference to Reginald Dixon), whose Hammond organ albums include "Lift Music Classics" (in British English, a "lift" is an elevator) and "Funking up Wagner". Rimmer has also taught the Skutters to play the Hammond organ, and on the series, every Wednesday night is "Amateur Hammond Organ Recital Night". None of the other crew of the Red Dwarf spaceship particularly enjoy Rimmer's taste in music."

I'll get my coat.

Reggie Dixon even!

M - Was meant to be the Hammond organist, Reggie Wilson! ( even the show gets the name wrong in different episodes! )

These included "Reggie Wilson plays the lift music classics", "Sounds of the supermarket - twenty shopping greats", "Pop goes Delius" and "Funking up Wagner"

Well done to all for their trades this week, and " with his target busting 313% !! A wine lake or a bit of a Tesla!!!

V

M - Yes, sunny here, bit cool but dry and no wind. Just catching up reading the BB's and some mags, washing the cars, organising my photo collection of 20th century telegraph poles and alphabetising my Reggie Wilson CD collection.
Only joking, not washed the car !

T - I am watching Plus, hoped to sell at open once qualified for the divi, but as is often the case the SP dropped by the divi amount immediately. So will hold them a little longer as at the moment the loss outweighs the divi value! Hoping one of S's fabled late in the day rises occurs!

Otherwise all is fine here!

Enjoy!

V

T - Howdy!
Not traded for nearly 2 weeks, cash-out as still in Plus and SNG, GGP and all are down.

Reading the BB here daily and enjoying the ARB battles!
Otherwise nothing exciting been happening !

V

Morning all,
S - happy birthday, enjoy the day, Rioja and cake!
Plenty of room to store the wine if the Tesla's have gone... !

V

Happy Birthday indeed!

S - yep, Plus gone ex-divi... can sell now!

Have a good day / year all!

S - HL news has the info on CCL fund raise :

CARNIVAL LAUNCHES $1.0BN PUBLIC OFFERING
