Pleased to report +1.3% wk, beating my b/mark #SBRY & #AAF lead the stocks and #HVPE my best IT. Some divs arrived and were tucked into #TFIF for now. Interesting to see the FTSE100 is just off ATH but FTSE250 is 10% below its Sept '21 peak I hope you all have excellent w/ends 🍻

Encourage your kids or take a look for yourself; good use of AI tools requires training. Luckily there is plenty to choose from: ChatGPT: academy.openai.com Claude: github.com/anthropics/pro… Gemini: support.google.com/a/users/answer… All 3 are excellent, but the principles apply to all

A tiny gain this week, just 0.1%, but that is still a positive! Nothing >5% 📈, so I'll say what a great day I had at the The Investor Summit. I enjoyed the top notch speakers: Lord Lee, Alistair Unwin, Laura Foll, John Stepek, Stephen Yiu 🐳 & Charles Hall I'll be there next year!

No complaints about a +1.2% week, completed without drama (nothing up or down more than 4%) My YTD is currently +15.5% against my personal benchmark of +10% No buys or sells, but a few I am watching carefully 👀 No big plans for the weekend which is lovely! Have fun everyone 🍻

Eyes and hands off the market this week as I'm away on hols. +0.8% helped by ,Supermarkets #SBRY & #TSCO and Housebuilders #PSN & #TW. #GDWN within touch of a £ton OK, now back to the sandy beaches, posh people, fast cars and fine food & wine of Cap Ferret 🍷

Goodwin #GDWN Market Cap now over £1Bn after today's rise. This follows a very positive RNS earlier.

Digital 9 RNS #DGI9 states current NAV is 32.7p (sp 8.9p) Let's dig into the highlights: Aqua Comms bought Apr 21 for £160m! EMIC-1 bought July 21 for £50m Sea Edge bought Dec 21 for £15m A fine example of shareholder value destruction. The board are inept & should be prosecuted

A good pf week, +3.9% assisted by a huge 27% gain at #GDWN and decent gains at #GCL, #SSLN & #CCC Large cap weakness noted at #SN., #ULVR & #HLN Goodwin AGM this week which sadly I can’t attend this year due to work commitments. Pity as I expect they’ll have posh biscuits out ☕️

I really enjoyed this commodities focused discussion, some great ideas to research. But Henry, you sent me checking a history book when you said Nixon ended the gold standard 75 years ago. It was Aug 1971, when gold was $35/oz

I remember doing quadratic equations for O level maths (no idea what they were for then, or now) Do they still teach this, while also letting kids finish school without knowing how to manage their finances?…

I'm at AIC show today & the highlight so far was Nick Train's keynote speech. He knows it's not gone well, he made no excuses, he promised to try harder. Coming back from a #JDW lunch met him in the foyer and had a lovely 2 mins 1-1 with him. #FGT on my recovery watchlist.
