Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Lower rates or a 'pivot' only comes when the data deteriorates, historically pivots are followed by a drop in share prices which is contrary to what most people believe will happen at the time. The issue as always is lagging data, by the time anyone realises the damage is done. Rate hikes have barely worked the way into the real economy yet.

Another green day @413x must be perplexed :p

Persimmon, warehouse reit, target health care reit, easyjet, carnival all popped

With UK inflation falling a lot it's super green.

I'm up 10 percent from last week across my entire isa due to the loading up on inflation battered shares

Even AV is up

BUY THE DIP

I've not been green since September.
Finally only down 1.9% :D

I have more cash in my account than invested but havent wanted to buy anything, not even averaging down just incase it can get a lot worse like China starting a war

Mars to buy Hotel Chocolat in £534mn deal

UK chocolatier’s founders to get payday of about £280mn after difficult year marked by waning demand
www.ft.com www.ft.com

A fat return for anyone who had stock

Mars’s offer values the Aim-listed cocoa manufacturer at a premium of 169.8 per cent to Hotel Chocolat’s share price of 139p at the close of business on Wednesday, the companies said.

Seems they always had Negative earnings and the highest their sales the more money they lost.

Would have been one of the high street businesses I would have expected to go bankrupt tbh
Mars will probably butcher the recipes to turn a profit

Hasbro are trading at a near all time low, not sure if they will ever recover as their products are deemed as old fashion and are having a difficult time modernising their IPs.

they do own some oligopoly thou.. literally monopoly (lol), d&d, wizards of the cost…

they own a lot of brands though it seems like even Transformers IP
seems like a potential value buy at first glance.

If VR/meta Rubbish ever truly kicks off in our lifetimes then I'd imagine Hasbro could be quite a big player, even without that they can easily be a company that fully transforms to digital products.

A lot of it's brands could fizzle out and become worthless though like NERF will probably slowly die off and it's not really something you can move to digital unless your just licensing the rights for the skins or something

I made a not so great purchase of GE shares around 5 years ago. It's take all this time to get back to where I started. I'm about £600 up. To then cover my losses I put my brave coat on and when the share price was low bought shares through my company. I only bought £5500 but they're doing OK, around £3k up. So I'll keep that latter investment as they are in a tax free wrapper.

I plan to sell my other GE shares soon, I was holding out for $120 (no idea why) and they're pretty much there. I now wish to invest that £8500 pot. I'm tempted by Nvidia at the moment but other than that what kinds of split would you think is best to do? I was thinking a mix of Nvidia, Vanguard VWRP and maybe a dividend stock (L&G or M&G). Not sure what % to put into each or if this is a great way to spread my investment. Has to be lower risk than all in GE though? Your thoughts on how to split the £8500 investment would be appreciated.

TIA
