More contract wins for AMFW and when Oil heads north again (which it will) this is looking like a good investment.

We still have over 9 months to catch Invisage up!

Our investments slightly outperformed again today with a flat return as opposed to a decline of (0.27%) for FTSE100. Of our 51 shares, 21 closed Up, 28 Down & 2 Unchanged. Stock level has increased to 60.3% (Added to VUKE at session low & re-bought RDSB near session low).

Greedy WPP executives can LEAP off!

FTSE100 has now established a 6 day Down wave with the earlier 7264 some (01.77%) off the Bull high of 7395. The decline represents a (43.52%) give back of the 20 day, third principal Up wave (7094:7395).

Could be enough but I am looking for more like a c(61.80%) give back which would result in c7209. After that, probably one more Up wave leading to a Segmental top but 7395 may already be it and FTSE100 could be currently in the process of heading down to c6951 over the next few weeks.

It may be that Invisage is doing so well because 5 out of 6 of his defensive big hitters are significantly outperforming...BATS, AZN, GSK, IMB & RB. are currently Up 10.2%, 6.9%, 6.9%, 7.7% & 5.8% respectively as opposed to BP. which is off (11.5%). Collectively, those 6 companies are Up 4.33% and they may make up nearly 50% of his portfolio...may be more influential than some of the smaller recovery/growth stocks that are doing well e.g. BVIC, DTG, SCH & SCT.

Those defensives could weaken later in the year so may not be all over yet!

NYMEX POO dropping below $50 hasn't helped your portfolio today, Gateside!

DOM hammered (shown up to be overvalued) in Invisage's portfolio but it still manages to be only modestly down...I think we are battling for second place in this year's competition, do you not agree?

Invisage, a few enthusiastic posts would not go amiss even if they are rubbing it in.

[gateside] 09/3/2017 13:21

Added a few more TRIG today for the steady quarterly income.

[nasdaqpat] 09/3/2017 13:08

Couldn't resist re-buying an initial tranche of RDSB so up to 51 companies. Also Added to VUKE and today was Income Drawdown day from our SIPPs so stock level increased to 59.9%.

[nasdaqpat] 09/3/2017 07:51

Should not affect us also as most of our dividend paying investments are in our two SIPPs which are treated the same way as ISAs (i.e. not subject to tax).

VUKE, however, is currently held in a cash a/c and that yields 3.61% but the amount received in dividend will not exceed the new £2,000 threshold.

[gateside] 08/3/2017 17:09

Not impressed that dividend allowance is being cut from £5000 to £2000 in the new budget. But then the current Government don't impress me at all. Though it does not affect me, because as of April, I will be able to transfer my remaining few shares outside my ISA into my ISA once I can use my new allowance.I'm looking forward to having ALL my shares in my ISA, so that the Chancellor won't be able to get his grubby hands on any dividends or capital gains.

Our investments slightly outperformed again today with a gain of 0.09% as opposed to a decline of (0.06%) for FTSE100. Of our 50 shares, 24 closed Up, 22 Down & 4 Unchanged. Stock level has increased to 56.8% (Added to L100).

[gateside] 08/3/2017 16:53

1 level and 12 both up and down!

[nasdaqpat] 08/3/2017 07:49

BVC disappoints again with substantially reduced revenue but, as usual, promise of plenty jam tomorrow. Some investors will bale today but I'm a sucker for lost causes.

[gateside] 07/3/2017 22:51

SSE predicted to fall to1344pThese brokers are crazy! I'll buy more at that price. SSE use to be my largest holding by far for ages. Sold some to buy into JLEN last year.

[nasdaqpat] 07/3/2017 22:38

Citigroup downgraded SSE to Sell with a 1344p target price!

Not sure what's going on with JMAT!

[gateside] 07/3/2017 18:32

Slightly better performance today. Not sure why JMAT & SSE were so weak today.

Our investments slightly outperformed again today with a flat performance as opposed to a decline of (0.15%) for FTSE100. Of our 50 shares, 26 closed Up, 18 Down & 6 Unchanged. Stock level is 55.3%.

[gateside] 07/3/2017 08:40

Better start to today. Lots of blue around!

[nasdaqpat] 07/3/2017 07:36

Encouraging TU from REDS this morning...expecting a healthy share price increase today.

BVC reported a decent size contract which has something to do with chicken disposal...quite a departure from its origins in Advanced Telecommunications.

AMFW announced a collaboration with Shell...shouldn't do any harm.

Even with all the political and economic instability, not convinced gold is such a good buy as I did a few week ago when I bought small holdings in CEY and POLYWill sit on sidelines for now.

[nasdaqpat] 06/3/2017 18:36

I'm not really sure which direction POG is heading...it reached 1258.0 cents per ounce on 27 Feb and looked to be going up but I'm not convinced as it could still be in correction mode following 7 Jul 2016 peak of 1362.2 cents per ounce. I think the 17 Dec 2015 low of 1052.05 cents looks solid but the prospective secondary low of 1132.75 cents on 20 Dec 2016 could still be vulnerable.

[gateside] 06/3/2017 17:46

Pretty rubbish day for portfolio. But extra busy with work this week, so not much time to analyse things in much detail. Wonder where gold is heading?
