Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

primary health properites
Pretty solid choice. Probably best in your ISA though, rather than the GIA. It pays some income as PIDs and tax treatment is different, they are paid with 20% tax taken and if you're a higher rate taxpayer keeping these outside of the ISA means you'll have to notify HMRC to ensure your tax code is changed to take the extra 20% tax due. In the ISA ensure your broker is reclaiming the 20% tax already paid.

Top four certainly likely to be steady stocks over medium term.
Rolls doing ok after in effect a hard hammer from COVID.

When you factor in the effects of the rights issue Royces are currently at an all time high.

Hoping they start dividends up again soon

Already been announced that dividend payments will start next year. Initially at 30% of the profits, which is estimated to be around 4p/share.
 
I'm looking for an entry position for jamf at the moment.
The shares are near bottom but they just signed an agreement allowing microsoft to sell their products and services.

They are the market leaders in Apple device management and are only one of three products that are suitable for enterprise level managment. I'm expecting sales to pick up once companies know that they can purchase it via microsoft, it get's rid of a lot of the tendering issues. They are currently hosted on AWS at the moment, I suspect that they will switch to azure at somepoint bringing down the costs and finally microsoft's apple managemet solution is very poor at the moment, I think microsoft will buy them out at some point rather than keep poking at that dead horse.
 
There seems to be a bit of fear from the US traders in the past two weeks... stocks go up when the UK market opens, then stocks go down when the US get's online....
I'm hopeful last year repeats and the markets take off again in November and December as my current rate of return sucks, I'm in the red on a few of ETFs.

US markets and global trackers are just a couple of percent below their all time highs. If your rate of return sucks this year then you're doing it wrong.

Some of my old interest rate repressed single stocks I still own from past are finally starting to come good with the sniffs of these rate drops.
But damn. It's taken a while.
 
Even the original bagholders of Palantir are in profits now

hitting all time highs over 37$ :D I'm in at 20.39.

Nearly all my stocks are doing good, just intel and nio suck but nio is almost green for me anyway.

Easyjet finally turned green for me, lol insta sold as soon as it did. been holding that awhile.


All long positions now though, 1-2 years old so I guess it's expected to be mostly green, I've got some fat percentages going on though.


on the 7th of august my whole portfolio was down 5% , now it's up 25% :D


Shame I missed Nvidia , I had quite a bit of it at one point, doubt I would have held for the crazy gains though

Ezj is one of the stocks I still hold I'm fairly confident in more to come!

yep so those holding might be good to sell if currently green
Yea, Usually you would think the negative stock reaction that already happened was an over reaction, and that at earnings the stock will rebound a bit.

But looking at crowd strikes stock I doubt it dropped anywhere near enough and near term they might just keep bleeding customers with no growth picking up the slack.


Too much risk for too little gains imo

IHMO they should be bankrupted for having me be woken up at 4am to join a MIM call...
We have a multi million pound contact with them at the moment and there's been a lot of meetings in regards of their contract at the moment. If it's happening at my place, I would bet my last pound that it's happening in a lot of the enterprises that they have contracts with.
 
while the going is good and the green is there..

Just wanted to make sure you saw the option if you wanted to pull out. some green is better than red :D

Yeah it is a tad risky I agree.
Not sure how many will actually pull out or if it's similar to people saying they won't pay for Netflix... Then carry on paying.

I will have a look at some tangible articles however. Maybe it'll be one where best time to sell is pre results.

It'll probably be a classic or rising to the fairly near the bell. An underwhelming result set and price tanks.


Finally my Duolingo shares are nice and green.
I've held these for a while now as always hearing friends and randomers talking about it. Was expecting green sooner.
Nearly sold out actually in my move to Etfs. But glad I didn't.

366% on rr atm, I never could have imagined that sort of return from them, but perhaps it was an obvious winner in hindsight.

I've been gradually selling my position recently, though I have no doubt it will continue to grow.
