BIGT before 24 September? Not a chance, more jam tomorrow.

[pshevlin] 06/8/2019 08:51

Theerein lies the problem but in the meantime (and it's proving to be a long meantime) one could easily double one's money and holding. Haven't had the nerve up to now.

You honestly can't work out what the point is pshevlin?? I thought it was all very clear.

Aggressive investors
Aggressive investors share a high tolerance for risk. They generally tend to look for stocks that show a higher potential for growth. These investors are usually looking for companies that will become the next Pepsico or Google.

The companies that fit this description are usually startups that are looking for funding and stocks in manufacturing and resources. They usually don't offer dividends. It is because they are more likely to invest their profits in the expansion, advertising, marketing, research, and development, etc. Aggressive investors are also interested in small-cap companies. It is because these companies show a lot of potential to grow. The higher reward for the higher risk is the strategy that fuels the minds of aggressive investors. Small-cap stocks can be highly volatile, and it is imperative to keep a close eye on these stocks to make money.

Conservative Investors
These investors share a lower tolerance for risk. As a conservative investor, one should look for stocks that offer dividends or a steady flow of returns. Most of these stocks fall in the category of blue-chip stocks. This means investing in companies like Google, Microsoft and Berkshire Hathway. As a conservative investor, who has invested in the market for the long term, one should not be worried about day to day fluctuations of the market as blue-chip companies are strong enough to withstand the blows of the market. It is, however, vital to keep checking if these companies invest a substantial amount of their profits in research and development or the departments that promise steady growth.

In the 1990s, Kodak and Nokia were the two companies that held a great share in the market and the lives of the people. Both of the companies promised quality products to their customers. However, as the digital era took the market, the companies failed to flourish because their products could not withstand the competition. The inability of Nokia to embrace smart technology led to its fall. Similar was the case with Kodak, as it could not promise a smooth transition in the field of digital cameras.

As a person who is looking forward to invest his retirement money in the assurance of a reward, it is advisable to invest as a conservative investor. As a conservative investor, look for bluechip stocks that are actively involved in creating innovative products and are readily keeping up with the market. However, if you are a grandparent, thinking of gifting stock to your grandchild, you can use an aggressive approach. As an aggressive investor, look for a stock that promises potential and innovation.
Now, after you have identified your purpose and style of investing, it is imperative to define a timeframe.

Short Term: Investment for a short term involves investing in a market for less than a year. It is important to note that all the stocks fluctuate in the short term. It is almost impossible to predict the direction of the ticker unless you have insider information. There is no perfect formula to invest and make money in the short term.
In fact, I would say that
“ Investing in the short term is speculation.”

[pshevlin] 06/8/2019 07:58

So he really didn't say anything grabster?

[harrysol] 06/8/2019 07:57

Beautifully put retirement. Me thinks boiling is a toad. I trust in Neill Ricketts. I can't wait for the shorters too be destroyed. BIGT is coming.

[luckyorange] 06/8/2019 07:52

Don't know why people come on promoting other shares that have had a huge spike and are on a confirmed downtrend, I do really, they missed to sell at the top lol.

[lovat scout] 06/8/2019 07:49

Why would AECOM or any other client want to buy a shareholding in a supplier and why would VRS want it? Conflicts of interest all over the place and it wouldn’t look very good on their balance sheet if they subsequently dropped VRS to go elsewhere whilst a significant client and shareholder or if VRS dropped the client!

More likely outcome would be a client to buy VRS outright but I don’t think that’s going to happen either. Another composite/tech supplier having a look at VRS is different but the company is yet to prove commercial success.

Government investment in companies has to comply with EU state aid rules - can be done but tricky and can be a hindrance sometimes for companies.

Market participants still not convinced about the “jam tomorrow” stories, failed again at huge, long term, 130p resistance.

During these market volatile times, I will add more (STX) as a safe haven status imo
If these get and stay above 130p for some weeks, then I will start buying again. Dyor as usual

[luckyorange] 06/8/2019 07:31

So, agm confirmed as 24 September. And NR has previously stated an aim to see the BIGT deal sorted before the agm. That means within 7 weeks (34 trading days). Though he also said it might be a bit later..

[wuzy] 06/8/2019 07:27

Looking forward to agm next month and hopefully meeting some great posters, let's hope we have a good run up with news of bigt etc,etc.
