Week 135 Review - Massive progress towards getting back in the black

What an absolutely brilliant week. I banked another £2,395 profit from IQE:IQE and the difference between cost and value still improved by £2,642. Technically the portfolios are in the red by £1,809 but if you add the £2,472 cash waiting to be re-invested then I'm happy. When I re-invest I will be £1,809 down again, but I'm enjoying the moment.

Worst performer was one of last week's best performers SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics which dropped 10%. RED:RedT Energy dropped 8% after a 6% rise last week, so that's going backwards, and TLOU:Tlou Energy can't seem to convince the market that things are going great as the price dropped another 6% just after I bought some more.

AMYT:Amryt Pharma climbed 6% and is back in profit, CAML:Central Asia Metals had a great week and climbed 6%, and WRES:W Resources seems to be sneaking gradually higher, gaining 7%.

TND:Tandem Group are waking up as people notice they are bucking the trend of the other toy makers, possibly thanks to their thriving mobility scooter market They climbed 10% this week.

OPTI:Optibiotix had me doing a jig of joy, as the 10% rise of 6p is worth £3,654 and was a massive contributor to the performance.

Share of the Week goes to IQE:IQE, which as well as earning me loads of real profit also climbed 14% in my SIPP and 32% of purchase price in my ISA. The shorters are closing slowly, but I'm still nervous as they are running out of time before results. More of my sales later, but I'm keeping the cash just in case there is a big dip at any point and I get a chance to buy back cheap. If not, then yippee my holding makes loads of money and I buy something else secure in the knowledge that no more than 10% of my portfolio is locked into IQE:IQE.




As this includes cash, the value just sneaks up past the cost.

The ISA and share portfolios look like this

(Sold stocks profit + Dividends - Fees / Months)

Three lots of IQE:IQE sales were 1,635 at 129.0661p = £1,137.85 (117%) profit, 839 at 132.28p = £606.49 (120.4%) profit and 764 at 145p = £650.76 (141.7%) profit. These caused the £2,395 rise in banked profit and has rocketed the long-term average monthly profit up by £74 to a very healthy 11%. That's 11% of portfolio value too, which has a habit of growing and making the performance much harder to maintain.

Portfolio value only climbs a small amount as I re-invested the first sale in OPTI:Optibiotix and TLOU:Tlou Energy but kept the proceeds of the other 2 sales as cash. Paper profits only dropped by just over half the profits I took out mainly thanks to IQE:IQE increasing share price by so much.




Still in the red but only a tiny gap.

The SIPP looks like this after week 119



Weekly Change
Cash £263.58
-£9.51
Portfolio cost £26,290.07
+£0
Portfolio sell value (bid price - commission) £28,559.82 (0.5%) +£2,138.62
Potential profits £4,208.51

Yr 3 Average monthly cash profit £143.67 (6.6%) -£13.21

Total Profit from sales £9,463.84

Average monthly cash profit £371.10 (16.9%) -£3.49
(Sold stocks profit + Dividends - Fees / Months)

Cash dropped due to monthly charges, portfolio value went up massively and comfortably into the black. Potential profits were only up by £521 because IQE:IQE were in loss and now just in profit, and the OPTI:Optibiotix recovery was all reduced losses.




The rise is almost as steep as the fall, but how long can it continue?

The trading account looks like this

Another trickle down - all very frustrating.




It's not looking good!

That's it - no time to ponder the week coming as it's already here. A wonderful long weekend in the Lake District messed up my ability to update, but I was able to take a snapshot of the stock prices before the markets opened Monday morning.

Next week is already here - remarkably flat - up £2 on last week...
