Fair to say some punters probably thought TGP actually lay the cables under water with protection systems...

[lokdgfg] 02/7/2022 07:27

Tekmar don’t lay any cables? They provide cable protection systems that are installed onto cables where they connect to a wind turbine foundation. There might be no requirement for cable protection on an interconnector project, and if there is a requirement it will be relatively small (compared to 200 systems on a typical windfarm) and also likely only require a very generic / commoditised product so lots of competition…

What no shares today or suspended?...nothing on ADVFN...

yes Bobbie870 looks like a fraudulent liar. he's gone mad on LSE as well. he's not doing any favours to Tekmar's stock price by trying to deceive readers.

The reference to the Times appears to be a fictitious one - caveat emptor.

Another AIM disaster is MPL...

Has any of the BOD walked away?...

[diku] 29/6/2022 12:02

100k???...surely you can afford to be a bluey poster...



And secondly makes sure to crystallise losses before year end so you can offset losses against gains. That is one mistake I did last year; not crystallising sufficient losses and this year i had to pay a bloody 100k to the tax man! (You might think I made a killing last year but I would have been in a much better position if i had crystallised more losses!)

Having shares like tgp can make you lose your confidence in general life, you start looking at everything in a negative way. I'm just baffled how this management can mess things up in such a high growth market when winning loads of big contracts. Obviously they don't own a calculator and aren't very good at maths.

Good thinking pinemartin, I cleared by mortgage last year, I have no debts, so if ever things go wrong I don't need much monthly outgoings, I can easily live off my monthly dividends, plus the wife has a decent job... Still feel our other two stocks we have in common SUR and SWG will cover our losses here over the next few years comfortably...

7% of my Portfolio is in SUR,...

Unfortunately we are in a bear market and most shares are down a lot. No stocks are holding not even the better ones like ABF. So guys you are not alone. I haven't got screwed by Tekmar and was actually looking to trade the bounce some weeks ago. But I did get screwed by names like McColls and Afren. Strangely McColls is one of the few shares I held going into the pandemic as i thought it would prosper servicing grocery neighbourhoods. (which highlights the importance of never getting too big into a positions as things can always go wrong)

Pinemarting
'I'm going to go much lower risk from now in future decisions and work on building a portfolio that is lower stress and allows me the headspace and energy to focus on the more important things in my immediate life such as family, work and fun.'

To be honest i doubt there is any such thing as a portfolio that is low stress. FTSE 100 companies can in some ways be higher risk as they have a lot of room to fall if something goes wrong. Talk about NMC Health and many others. Lower stress try high yield corporate bonds.

I can only give you a couple of tips. Try not to get in too big in those tumultuous times as it can hurt a lot on the way down. Market conditions are rapidly changing. Near the beginning of the year I bought heavily into Currys thinking I could trade the downswing back to mean reversion like i did in the past. Then after a few months I realised this wasn't happening so had to reduce.

And secondly makes sure to crystallise losses before year end so you can offset losses against gains. That is one mistake I did last year; not crystallising sufficient losses and this year i had to pay a bloody 100k to the tax man! (You might think I made a killing last year but I would have been in a much better position if i had crystallised more losses!)

Interesting observation igoe - I know what you mean. As a full time private investor I find its quite a lonely occupation in these days of zoom. I don't have a problem with that, I work happily on my own. But its really not the kind of thing I can discuss with friends 'down the pub' on good days or bad. I see their eyes glaze over after about 30seconds. The same for family members. They pay good money for somebody else to have the hassle and don't want to hear about it from me.

I've found not discussing it is equally problemmatic as it's clear that something is up and that doesn't just affect me. And lets face it - there has been plenty of that over the last couple of years. I'm learning not to put on too much of an act and to be able to express it in everyday 'bad day at the office' terms rather than waffle on at length.

The other thing that I do - is hide under an old landrover for a while and unbolt it, fix it, and bolt it up again. Chop some firewood and then focus upon my plan, work out what I am going to do to fix it - even if it takes years - and apply myself 100% to improving my investments, which is far easier said than done in this bear market. But it will end and my actions now will place me in a far better place when it does end,

cheers
