attrader and homebrewruss
Thats why I've moved over to trusts and funds.
time will tell if its right. however its wonderful not to have such short term volatility that individual shares bring.
Can they perform across all markets is the question.
Smithson looks like its getting over subscribed. £250m now raised up to £600m

Attrader, thanks, sounds interesting.
Similar performance to fundsmith.

Does it go any further back than 5 years as it has been a pretty bullish market during this time?

Over on the SCAN thread henryatkin is a fan of using small company funds. It definitely involves less work and you then perhaps just need to decide if you want to try and duck out of the market during bear periods.

Just trawling ETFs to see their performance..

19% 5yr annualised .. beats lot of work and excessive fees by fund managers and private investors (mainly myself)

The yoodles never seem to know what they are doing, rom one minute to the next.
Volatility appears to be the norm for the present.

Hmm maybe. I can't see it yet. Anyone lend us their Crystal ball?

Only thing is today felt like there was a bit of diversion between US and UK markets. So maybe Labour/Brexit risks driving sentiment?

[redartbmud] 08/10/2018 20:27

US market has reversed and is now positive.
Those yoodle critters are too unpredictable - or not!!

[stampylong trader] 08/10/2018 20:25

Can't tell if this is a reversal point or add on the dip.

[apad] 08/10/2018 20:06

US elections a month ahead - more volatility?

Anyone with stockopeodia membership able to post the article on SpE for me? Ta very much
Sorry I don’t want to join every site, I never remember which I have / get loads of emails

[homebrewruss] 08/10/2018 18:44

Brexit uncertainty perhaps not helping markets either.

Hopefully we'll get some clarity in the next month and then perhaps a relief rally if something is agreed? Who knows?

I've been willing my copy of Howard Marks' new book 'Mastering the market cycle' to arrive for a few weeks now. It arrived at the weekend - too late or just in time? :)

[big7ime] 08/10/2018 18:43

I’m 70% cash Hydrus so well placed for a correction.

[apad] 08/10/2018 18:26

Yoodles down again.
Blood on the streets tomorrow.
Loving it.

Well, there was one stand out today. SPE managed an 11% gain on a great TA
I thought it was in danger of evaporating as the rest got pulled down
Could prob have been up 20% on a normal day maybe. I think it’s v good value
One of the reasons I said that the high performers will be knocked is that many hav eovershot their sensible levels and some will have further to fall. SPE has risen or “bagged” 20x but from a very low point and there have been capitalisation issues tha5 mask the true gain. In real terms it hasn’t recovered to where it was over ten yrs ago and the rating is far from high on the earnings figs
£10 should now become support and next leg will be easier to the next 2.5 I.e. 12.50 resistance point. I have a st tgt 13.70

[apad] 08/10/2018 16:54

Ta, H. Also a yield!
No shorts on FEVR support my notion that this is algoland.

[hydrus] 08/10/2018 16:51

An excellent investment well done. Your lack of top slicing will have earned you greater profits, despite the recent dip than if you sliced all the way up. Not something I could stomach though!

[seroserio] 08/10/2018 16:48

LOL! IHT avoided though ;-)

[apad] 08/10/2018 16:43

ps
The problem with my approach is that I have to stay alive whilst the market returns to the trend.
Hey Ho!

[hydrus] 08/10/2018 16:42

Thing is APAD, FEVR et al could bounce 10% plus tomorrow and we could look back and realise today was a great opportunity. Who knows hey.

[toptrump1] 08/10/2018 16:42

This was a crash today for many stocks. Most of them APADs
Bad luck mate
