Nice to see a a lot more blue today.😀 However, it's a shame that all those gains are getting wiped out by #OSB & #ZTF though🙄 Roll on 2025, my ISA is done with 2024. Looking at flat at best after a decent first 6 months. Something changed in July for sure.😒

Inevitable after yesterdays trim🙄

📢SIPP tweak Sold 40% of #LLOY holding for 17% profit and topped up #FXPO & #IPF holdings. Partly to rebalance the SIPP and also with an eye on the potential car finance claims hit. With total sell out of #LLOY in ISA & this slice, total #LLOY holding reduced by ~80%. Watch #LLOY fly now😂

They say, "pay peanuts, get monkeys" and today I received #BSIF divis in the @HLInvest daughters JISAs before lunchtime as per usual. As for HSDL though a web chat ended with "the cash arrived late and we hope to pay them on Monday" What you get for £36/yr I suppose🐒🤣

Done some tinkering in the ISA⤵️ Sold #LLOY for ~51% gain due to concerns over as yet unknown car finance compensation. Opened new L slot holding in #LAND (results tomorrow🫣) and will top up #XPS & #IGG tomorrow. Still holding #LLOY in SIPP for now, so reduced overall #LLOY holding by 2/3rds 😐 DYOR

Pleased to take third spot in October behind clear winner @tradermark72.bsky.social for a second podium in 65 entries 😉. See below for my November picks. Good luck if you’re entering the competition

I'm closing my share dealing account tomorrow after 23 years with the sale of sole holding #FXPO. It's the only holding outside of a tax wrapper so will be rebought into the SIPP to protect any potential CGT/divi income in the future. Looking through the trades are some names best forgotten(1/2)

What’s the best episode of television you’ve ever watched? Pine Barrens from the Sopranos, a real change of gear from the usual storyline and could have been a spin off film. H/t's to Forbrydelsen, Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad & The Wire but couldn't think of a single standout episode unlike

Didn't even know this was a thing but now I do I'll be celebrating later😉

Could be looking at a Top Ten all time (9.5 years) daily gain in £ terms if this continues to the close. Aren't Excel spreadsheets ........

Should have joined you with #XPS as a pick but today's TU was unannounced at the time of submission. Happy holder nonetheless.😀 Top spot must on the cards for you after today.👏

I've just sold remaining #I3E holding in the SIPP for 31% profit in 10mths (funded by 2024 divi income). Funds will go to open a position in #IPF tomorrow. HSDL zero comm day. It was a wild ride holding #I3E and I'm sad to let it go, but good luck to holders awaiting the $GTE takeover.
