I have got out the stock market llodys gave me a good divided. I have moved to rate setter yes I won't make as much but also it is more stable so I can relax and in theory my money is safer even if they don't pay.
I doubt there fund would cover if no one paid.
I have done monthly rolling which is 3 percent and

My boohoo.com shares keep on going up and up, I'm up 248% 
should have put all my money on them, but hay hindsight... 
Japanese and mining funds also doing good, up 50% but that been up and down.
Let's not talk about Tallow Oil though, 70% down.

Ferrexpo was up 33% last week on the day after I bought it so I should be happy but Ive no clue why it suddenly jumped like that. I just looked at the chart and wanted to buy lower but knowing how these things go bought a little bit and got that gain. Sold some now, being in Ukraine it can easily just reverse that on news and I forgot why even I bought it now 
In theory they have a good low cost long term business but I guess a lot of things are booming with market highs and thats all
Also Weir today recovering to a good average, 1700 should be some kind of bump. Sold some but as an exporter they should be also ok long term on weaker sterling.
Wish I had also got more of this on the lows this year, I took some in Dec and I definitely should have looked on the low after brexit. Only clear in retrospect :/
Looked at Sophos, also seems a good one to buy on lows. Now not being that time. Exporter and decent model long term?
I think Sterling looks weak going forward, nothing to suggest otherwise chart or with QE lower rates, trade and fiscal deficit wont break a negative trend. So the smart thing with market highs is to have a bias or some connection to gold I think, for anyone earning in
sterling
Not always 100% why exactly but miners I have that boomed so far were FRES CEY ACA and RRS. The trick is knowing when or if they reverse, my fav is CEY barring a revolution

Same feeli on sxx.
But there's a reason you didn't. If it was a sure fire thing everyone would have.
I regret not buying boohoo a few months black.
Not sure if it's a bargain now or not
I'm still of the opinion SXX could be a ftse 100 company eventually. And should nearly be a ftse 250 company.
Lost track at the valuation. Valued at nearly a billion and not even under construction.
Possibly a share I will keep very long term
It rapid raise is making me nervous. It has been slowly climbing but shot up recently on good news.
Mining stock finally doing good. My fund up 134% on a year ago BUT it crashed badly so only about 40% above the price I bought in. Mining stock had a rocky ride (pun intended!

Historically spreadbets were unregulated and dishonest in some cases. Now the entire firm can go broke and you get money back same as savings in a bank, its pretty legit in UK. However be careful your firm is covered and registered under regulator in the UK, they all pay betting taxes to gov so we have some of the most lax laws in the world. USA bans them
Spread is 10%? 6.6% now but maybe you are seeing better then that
SXX has got 20bn of business forthcoming I think I read. So share value is speculating on the costs and financing following that I guess. In theory they could do it all via bonds and hand the power to private hands not public shares, I did read they'd be calling on shareholders but I dont follow closely.
This was another one on brexit, great idea to buy it. Did I actually do that hell no
HL is good for small SIPP I think. first result if I google that train fund.
Your know the HL shares themselves were a great idea to buy, they really captured some growth there.
Funds I would look at citywire maybe http://citywire.co.uk/money
Woodford selling BAE apparently which is slightly surprising, stories like that and your own ideas for funds. Tech has been a good fund sector.
gold was out of favour since 2011 but should be good now I think. Oil Im not certain as present highs come from speculation on Saudi Russian talks, oversupply is likely still apparent which is funny because Im sure many are energy poor still. Its related to global growth
lindsell hold Nintendo which is held by Neptune Japan I have, a very maverick manager there.
I think Newton Asian Income which is infrastructure is good place to be, on the FTSE there is 3IN or JLIF
ANTO up 10% today, SL done well since worries on their property funds I think it was
I need a reliable quote for Iron, I got everything else covered pretty much
If you ever see data like this, more recent post it up

I call them a bucket shop because that is what they are. I've not used them so haven't had any poor experiences.

Bucket shops are illegal in the US and have been for about 100 years so IG, CMC etc.. are not allowed to operate there.

I live in the UAE, why can't I elect for DRIP with LGEN. I have it set up for dividends to be paid as shares on my account, will anything happen?

DRIP is for registered holders. So if you have a nominee account you are not named or known to the company, could be why. A really nice broker might do it but none I use, they offer to take cash then use it to rebuy which is not the same.
This is why I left iii as a broker, they wanted 50% in fees as the company, santander often pay out scrip or shares not cash. Since it was like over 10% yield that was not ok
[if a broker puts up their fees, you can transfer out free usually so I did]
If you hold online with the legal and generals own preferred broker then they'd do drip I think or certificate

Bought in RBS following it and up about 11-12%.
I have a SIP (Share Incentive Plan), within the company I work for. We were hit badly by Brexit, but as of late, the share prices are getting back up and going higher than before Brexit. We're currently at 269.20p per share, whereas before Brexit we were hovering around 249 or so. And after Brexit, we went as low as 198.
My question here is, with me having a SIP (only started Oct 2015), I want to know if I could sell some shares now and still continue with the SIP? There's not much in there, but it's enough for me to use for a few months. I've had a quick check with a colleague and I can sell my shares at any time (and I am aware of the taxes and fees as well), but I just want to know if this will affect the SIP itself or am I allowed to still continue contributing towards the SIP?
