rofl... is the future grim in your knowledge circles?
Just my personal opinion, I've never fancied the company much. Maybe you can spot value though. The company is worth only £67m according to the ticker price, but then they have nearly £1.5bn in liabilities and lost over £491m this year!

I don’t see Debenhams recovering. The high street department store will go the way of the dodo.

nVidia shares have dropped nearly 50% in the last 2 months, obviously fuelled by the arse falling out of crypto/mining. Anyone tempted, or do you reckon it's still too early to buy back in?
On this matter i haven't bought anything from them in literal years, i barely remember they exist even when i walk by the rather huge local store.

Tech sector in general seeing quite a drop at the moment I think the bottom hasn't been found yet. Timing will depend a lot on their 7nm releases and/or future progress with automotive offerings. I suspect there will be an announcement around February which will see their share price spike up a bit but probably temporarily. I have a lot of uncertainty to the long term prospects - my gut is that it will dwindle into April before picking up (other than temporary blips) again but also possible that it will stabilise longer term close to the level it is now rather than bouncing back depending on how well stuff like 7nm pans out for them in reality.
Too much caution because of the bond yield scaring people, i doubt there will be big rises until that's either gone away or a recession begins.
Thats a good site, thanks!
One query though.. seems to be lot on making sure you pick an index fund with a small management fee.
I have an old acount with H&L , do they charge you 0.45% on your portfolio each year just to hold / manage it (On top of any fee any particular index may have 0.09%-0.22%)?
Part of the advice from Escape artist was to try and get a fund <0.25%, but management fee is gonna wipe that out. Or is H&L not the place to do that type of investment.

Yes - think of it as an access or custody charge. Fund charges, annual and transactions, are levied on top. Hargreaves Lansdown are expensive.

I bought £1k worth a little while back. Performed great at first; up about 30%. After this recent ridiculous slump I’m down over 50%.....wouldn’t mind but they are still making profit! They’ve just reduced growth projection and boom - share price screwed.
Still sticking by that one?
I've pulled half my money out. Still net up for the year, but less exposed, and a war chest to take advantage of the carnage. I don't think we're at the bottom yet.
Until the morons in Westminster and the tangerine tool in the White House are gone, I can't see any upside, everything they're doing is a drag on the global economy.
Tempted to buy more Nvidia as I still think they're a good long term hold, especially at these prices, but I've already got quite a large holding and don't want to be too exposed in case there's some drama.
IMO a moderate chance long term they might stabilise in the ball park of current value but definitely not hit a bottom yet - still dropping especially with the general trajectory ongoing - good chance they'll go as low as 80 though I don't see them going forever downward.

If in doubt post a float adjusted graph. I think Yahoo or google used to do them, most places only show price not shares issued or market cap which is misleading. Also FT used to give a graph including dividends issued (in the value line shown) which is another way to lose track in a proper comparison

Thought this was interesting, big merger. Goodbye to one of the UK listed largest gold miners as of Jan 3rd I think. I have them in a sector fund luckily, dont think its a great time to exit but all with a FTSE tracker will afaik
great big data drop, returns of sectors annually. Only cash won this year which is unprecedented (we have/will horrible inflation imo so makes little sense)

Anyone here trade ETFs successfully? Like JNUG JDST DGAZ UGAZ. They seem much easier to keep track of than traditional stocks.
I've been watching JNUG for 2 years and it's been bouncing off $12/share for like the entire 2 years or more, now has found a new bottom at $6.

After ignoring my own advice earlier in the year (this bull market is going to pop and correct soon), and getting burned...I'm buying while there's blood in the streets (mostly mine ). Picked up some more nVidia. Way oversold at the moment imo, I'm pretty sure once results start coming in in the new year this selling phase will be over as everyone realizes these businesses are still fundamentally good buys.
