Watching the Dow hoping for a run into close to set us up for the morning.

Signifiant sentiment shifts every few days atm,
think its an easier life just to buy hold, collect the divi and forget,
must try it sometime )

You never go broke taking a profit as the old saying goes.

FWIW I've let a few of the really "cheaply" bought ones go to book a handsome turn. Still running a core holding though, as I feel there should be further to go. Just a bit of insurance and would be happy to buy them back should the market put on his Mr Grumpy T shirt again.....

Agreed Essential. A sweet day.T'was good of SL. to update us on the flow performance but Brexit jitters are bound to present opportunities...Good hunting everyone

The one that got away eh, we have all been there.

Might open a bottle of something tonight at this rate,
need to be careful of a hangover the next day )

You may well get another opportunity,
mentioned a few times to expect outsized moves in either direction
over the next few weeks.

Once again a share that I have just started to show an interest in starts galloping away towards the sunset. I am now sat here hoping for another bout of market negativity.

This has 360p written all over it.

The capital markets day may have helped, also exit fears fading and
markets looking perky, can change in the blink of an eye but not complaining.
Sold a few just in case.

[chesty1] 24/5/2016 13:34

Looks to be trying to break out of trading range....

[chesty1] 24/5/2016 09:24

Moving nicely this am with volume.

[chesty1] 24/5/2016 08:08

Looked last night and to stay in was 1/7 on.....

[essentialinvestor] 23/5/2016 11:54

Presentation is now on the SL investors site for anyone interested,
had a listen to some of the webcast, unfortunately missed the CEO's
opening comments, hopefully available in play back mode later on.

Continue to expect outsized moves here, volatility galore for a few weeks
at least IMV.

[essentialinvestor] 23/5/2016 09:59

Hopefully, thanks again for the mention.

[cwa1] 23/5/2016 09:52

Yes EI, that's pretty much the way I read it-increase in assets under management and perhaps a things are "tickety boo" message at the CMD reading between the lines of the announcement?

[essentialinvestor] 23/5/2016 09:48

Thanks for highlighting CWA, so if I am reading that correctly it appears a
further rise in assets under management, all be it that SL. have made a
number of smaller acquisitions recently- some have not been announced by RNS
as modest in size.

[cwa1] 23/5/2016 09:38

Just in case anyone hasn't seen it:-

[essentialinvestor] 20/5/2016 09:31

Traded a few again this morning, see what next week brings.
No question the consensus strongly shifting to a Stay result helped the share price

[toffeeman] 20/5/2016 08:20

Needs a close above 340 to break downtrend from 500 high

[chesty1] 20/5/2016 08:06

Bargain hunters are out....

I realise I have been posting a lot on here lately, I will shut up & let the share price do the talking you all know my position here.

Be lucky to all

[chesty1] 19/5/2016 16:36

4% gain yesterday -1.3% given back today. Let's hope the Dow gets its act together after our close.At least we are away from the bottom....for now....

[essentialinvestor] 19/5/2016 15:23

Had a few back, just a small amount as markets looking ill.

[chesty1] 19/5/2016 14:27

If I was trading £3.30 before the Dow opens would be my bet... Let's see at the end of the day. Never was any good at trading.
