Wednesday Reviews- OMG’s! Wednesday Stock-pickers gain 4.4%
Had we included Fitbug, which was not recommended as a Wednesday Tip the average would have been a massive 300.4%.
The Aim All share fell 16.5% and we are a long only newsletter ……
So not too bad? We will be working hard to improve
…Last Year….
……..the FTSE closed at 6,749 on New Year’s Eve which was a 2.7% reduction on 2013. The FTSE 250 improved by 3.6% while the FTSE Aim All Share fell 16.5%. The economic recovery was established in 2014 and should give a political dividend. The FTSE’s highest point was back in 1999 when it reached 6,930 although it did come close a couple of times in 2014.
There are a few predictable challenges for 2015 such as the FED setting US interest rates, China’s economic growth and Eurozone deflation with a moderate potential for a break-up of the euro. Extra elements of volatility are likely to be added by the UK general election, Middle East tensions, the oil price and Russian politics.
Today, it seems likely that FTSE 100 will reach a new high and end 2015 at between 6,500 and 7,000. More importantly to us is perhaps the Aim All Share, after severe under performance could jump ahead perhaps just as a recovery play, but hopefully responding to an improving UK Economic outlook and investor sentiment. 2015 will be a journey which we hope we can successfully share.
Pause for Thought
While we remain on the glass is half-full mood it was reported by Barclay that money flowed into small companies bank accounts at the fastest rate for 15 years.
A sign for an improvement in Small Businesses performance was the Bank of England monthly data for November showing that lending increased to Small Businesses by £286m, which is the biggest increase since the records began in 2011.
Small Businesses are defined as those with turnover of less than £5m.
Wednesday’s Stock-pickers Tips
Review
Reviewing is a useful exercise; you clearly want to know how we have done while we want to continually improve.
The table below shows a positive performance indicator of 4.4% for the 5 Months since OMG! started what we now call the Wednesday Stock-pickers Tips. This indicator (based on mid-to- mid prices) is useful as an indication of performance and shows that on average each of the 17 recommendations is 4.4% ahead.
Had we included Fitbug, which was not recommended as a Wednesday Tip the average would have been a massive 300.4%.
We are grow-ups and do not want to play games with figures so clearly mid-to-mid prices bears no reality to trading performance.
We do hope is that our style encourages you to take a chance on our recommendations and that over a year we make you more than 4.4%. Please request a review of any of the picks below by using the comment function.
