Week 16 Review

What a roller-coaster week. Down, down, up up, up. By the end of Tuesday I'd lost £700 and have spent the last 3 days trying to claw it back. I didn't succeed so I know today's review will be down from last week.




Weekly Change
Portfolio cost £30,260.37
+£646.95
Portfolio value (share price) £28,302.00 (-£1,852.11) +£592.20
Portfolio sell value (bid price - commission) £27,340.90 (-£2,919.47) +£578.54
Dividends £135.38
+£3.84
Profit from sales £342.88
+£0
Overall profit -£2,441.22
-£64.58
(Portfolio sale-cost+dividends+profit from sales)

Note the sneaky increase in portfolio value. This was caused by my desire to get it to £30K and the fact I couldn't resist topping up on JLP:Jubilee Platinum while they were cheap. I got another 20,000 to add to my existing 15,000 and paid 3.175p for a total of £646.95. My original lot were bought for 3.71p so are losing £92 but the new ones are only down £8.90 of the commission so are doing ok. I still believe when Jubilee start production they will make big profits, as even with platinum prices falling, they can produce it so cheap.

As it happened I chose the wrong mine to top up. WRES:W Resources went through the roof after they had the permission to mine granted. That was losing 54% and yesterday was up 13% with £25 profit. It dropped 11% today as people sold out, so back down to 2% increase and losing £22 commission. Once they start producing it could gain a few pence. As 1p would be worth £600 I'm still hopeful.

Back to the review, and although adding £646 to the portfolio it's only up by £578 which isn't great. Overall I'm down by £64 this week, which given I was down £700 Tuesday evening is a bit of a relief. So much for getting below the £2,000 loss. Not sure if I'll get that ambition as a Christmas present...
