Week 143 Review - Optibiotix and SkinBioTherapeutics both go into profit

A great week. Not necessarily one of the best gaining weeks, but one that has seen both OPTI:Optibiotix and SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics move from paper loss to profit. This contributed to an improvement of £1,410 in the deficit between cost and value, reducing it to £4,633 and a total portfolio value of £74,619.

Worst performer was VRS:Versarien dropping 9% and having a much more serious effect now it comprises 6.9% of my portfolio. This moved it from profit to £418 (8%) loss. I'm not surprised, as this is one of my most volatile shares. I should be buying any dips below 70p but my fighting fund is spent.

N4P:N4 Pharma dropped yet again and is now losing £172 (14%) after dropping another 5% this week. I must learn the right time to buy a share!

Lots of other small drops and rises but a relatively quiet week all told. OPTI:Optibiotix climbed 3% which is 2p and accounted for £1,200 of the improvement this week. This moved all three holdings into profit, totaling £498. It's taken 2.5 years so not a great return so far, but all being well, this should just be the beginning.

RED:RedT Energy climbed 6% and I can only hope this is the start of a revival, as they have dropped 36% since I bought them.

IQE:IQE is still in the hands of the shorters, but a few must have closed some positions this week as the share price was up 6%. There's still a way to go to make up my 16% loss though.

Share of the Week is SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics which zoomed up a magnificent 14% and has now gone to £21 (2%) profit. Not a huge amount, but significant as I bought these in the midst of IPO frenzy and they've been at a loss ever since.




The gap narrows a little more

The rise in OPTI:Optibiotix accounted for most of the increase, with profits up a little, but it as mostly reduced loss this week. Not much change anywhere else apart from the monthly ISA fee hitting cash.




A minor improvement. Still a lot to do here.

The SIPP looks like this after week 127

(Sold stocks profit + Dividends - Fees / Months)

Similar story to the other accounts, except the monthly fee is bigger and the increase in profit greater as OPTI:Optibiotix were nearer to profitability in this account.




Reasonably comfortably in the black again, but will the momentum hold?
