Didn't see any jump in my global fund yesterday. Definitely have this morning though. Nice.
Not a bad idea, but would rule out tax free investments in the vast majority of index trackers.I would be quite happy if they changed up the ISA rules so that some or all of the S&S ISA allowance was limited to UK equities.
No it would not personally benefit me. But it’s a pretty simple proposition, yes you can have an exemption on £20k a year of investments, but only if you invest in UK companies. You can invest in US companies, but you don’t get the (extremely) generous tax break.
Might go a ways to fix the malaise in UK listings
haha how funny, I had a greggs coffee this morning and while drinking it I checked them on 212 and stuck £30 on itI see Greggs is back on the gentle rise again after a bit of a drop a while back, that plus the dividend makes is a nice little earner if you are in.
I'll admit, I threw a few hundred on them last month just as they were dipping, then kept dipping but am now back to the good along with the dividend due into my account later this month but now starting to think they are a keeper and might add another few % of my cash into it as they fell quite a way and seeing how many new stores they opened last 2 quarters, that cash will start coming through in the next quarterly report or two.haha how funny, I had a greggs coffee this morning and while drinking it I checked them on 212 and stuck £30 on it

Unlike the current situation where the UK taxpayer is subsidising investment in US companies?Not a bad idea, but would rule out tax free investments in the vast majority of index trackers.
Also not sure that the government should be using tax incentives to effectively subsidise poorer performance of UK equities versus non-UK.
Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:LUNR) jumped 14% in premarket trading Tuesday after the space infrastructure company reported a surge in revenue and cash flow for the first quarter of 2025, alongside a historic second lunar landing and a string of new government contract wins.
Revenue for three-month period totaled $62.5 million, missing the average estimate of $66.1 million among Wall Street analysts.
Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:LUNR) reported growth across its key programs including Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS), Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services (LTVS) and Near Space Network Services (NSNS).
Gross margin improved to 11% -- the third consecutive quarter of positive margins -- on stronger execution and a shift toward higher-margin service offerings.

The uk taxpayer is subsiding investments equally in any company, and leaving the selection of the investment based on the potential success of the company.Unlike the current situation where the UK taxpayer is subsidising investment in US companies?![]()
People are free to invest wherever they like, I'm just not sure the UK taxpayer should be subsidising investment in any firms not UK tax-domiciled.The uk taxpayer is subsiding investments equally in any company, and leaving the selection of the investment based on the potential success of the company.
and the trade deal kept the 2% digital services tax on google, amazon, meta etc....People are free to invest wherever they like, I'm just not sure the UK taxpayer should be subsidising investment in any firms not UK tax-domiciled.
I did sell off when the tariffs/china stuff kicked off but followed ever since and bought back in last week. They absolutely smashed earnings!Do you still hold?
I originally found out from you I think.

It's not like investing in US firms would be an unattractive proposition even without the tax break of the ISA wrapper.
I'm going to hold until 5+ I think listening to the earnings call they hope all 4 quarters will be the same as this one which they smashed. Sounds like there's some acquisitions on the cards in EMEA tooI have 1200 shares left.
Crazy my first buy was at 0.6.
Now topping 3.0 crazy stuff
