Week 194 Review - Optibiotix sliding inexplicably

Yet another dreadful week, now completely undoing all the good from a few weeks ago. The combined portfolio value dropped by £4,247 and widened the deficit to £7,792. The total value was over £100K a few weeks ago but is now only £92,649.

Worst performer was CAML:Central Asia Metals losing 12% half of which was going ex-dividend. There's normally a rise into the dividend but it never appeared.

VRS:Versarien had a bad week too, dropping 12% but still up by 19%.

OPTI:Optibiotix dropped 7% and that hammered the portfolio. Dunno why - it's all very frustrating.

TAP:Taptica also slid after recent gains. There's very odd sentiment against this company at the moment, but I think they'll come through it.

SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics slipped another 5% possibly due to the OPTI:Optiobiotix slide.

TND:Tandem Group suffered from profit taking and dropped 5%.

TLOU:Tlou Energy had a great week climbing 8% as it's looking like they will get their contract for supplying power, or not we'll have to see.

CEY:Centamin nearly wins Share of the Week climbing 8% of purchase price in the ISA and 11% in the SIPP. Still a way to go before these shares trade at a sensible price.

TEK:Tekcapital surprisingly wins Share of the Week with a massive 35% increase. There's still 22% to go before this breaks even though.


Dreadful.




Disasterous

Exactly the same as the ISA - Profits hammered and other losses making some ground. Performance was boosted by my PAF:Pan African Resources shares being sold, but not for long.





The SIPP goes into the red for the first time in ages

A great week with the deficit slashed. If only the other accounts had been this good!

Closing the gap bur very slowly.



Not a bad week.

That's it for week 194. It's almost week 195 already and so far things are looking better so let's hope Friday doesn't screw things up.
