Week 308 Review - Roller coaster week ends slightly up

By the end of trading on Monday I was £6,500 up and it was looking like a great week, but that vanished to a £2,500 loss as the week wore on, only to recover at the last minute to a £1,008 rise. That reduced the deficit between cost and value to £26,344 and increased total value to £118,452.

JLP:Jubilee Metals was the only big loser, giving up the 18% gain from last week, but they are still 320% up

OPTI:Optibiotix climbed by 1p which is only 2% but was almost enough to win Share of the Week.

The prize goes to TRX:Tissue Regenix which climbed 3%, a rise so small it wouldn't normally get a mention, but it was my best performer this week. They are still 60% down, but I haven't given up hope for them and am still tempted to get a few more at these prices.

Flat

A tiny tick up but well below the trend line

Only slightly up by £322 thanks to the £400 drop in JLP:Jubilee Metals in a pretty uneventful week.

Still below the trend line, but not by very much.

The SIPP looks like this after week 292 overall and week 32 of year 6.

Hardly anything happened here either. CAML:Central Asia Metals is the only share in profit and it dropped by just £30, and the 1p climb in OPTI:Optibiotix cancelled out all the small losses and gave an improvement of £682.

A lot further below the trend line, and it's now pointing downwards which is exceptionally bad.

The trading account looks like this after week 258 overall and week 50 of year 5.

That pretty much sums up how little happened this week. In increase in value of £2. Only 2 weeks of year 5 left to go, and it's looking like the best ever performance with an average of over £55 a month profit. It would be nice to think I can sell something soon but it doesn't look likely, and transferring across the £2,500 from selling the OPTI:Optibiotix in my share account when it passes 84p is looking like a long, long way off yet.

A pretty rubbish 5 months.

That's it - late to write up again and I want something to eat, so no time to speculate on what may or may not happen next week. Suffice to say it's been a long, long time since we had a really good week.
