Week 332 Review - Santa is dead to me!

I thought last week was the turning point and the Santa rally had kicked in, but all last week's gains and more were wiped off the portfolio this week with huge drops in my biggest holdings. The deficit between cost and value widened by £6,987 to £56,641 and portfolio value dropped below £100k to £98,905. Bah humbug!!

JLP:Jubilee Metals was the biggest drop, falling 34% of my purchase price despite announcing that Colin Bird was stepping down as Chairman, which I would have expected to give the share price a boost. They are still 254% up and I must resist the temptation to sell any more.

SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics was a genius purchase 3 weeks ago, falling 7%, 6% and now 11% since I bought them. Possibly my worst timed purchase ever, and I thought I was getting a bargain!

DDDD:4D Pharma continues to collapse despite news on the asthma drug this week. There were no negative surprises, but no mega clinical outcomes either, but I wasn't expecting a 6% drop.

TLOU:Tlou Energy also dropped 6%. I'm really confused as to why these have dropped so far since the announcement of securing finance for the electricity transmission lines. I was expecting it to re-rate upwards!

OPTI:Optibiotix lost all last week's gains, falling 3p and 5% to go 32% down, which on an investment of £100k is a lot. This despite news of 3 deals likely to bring £1m+ revenue each next year. I'm baffled.

A sliver of good news was the gold price starting to recover and go back above $1,800. That helped PAF:Pan African Resources climb 6% and get just about back in profit, and I got a nice dividend too.

Share of the Week for the second week in a row is BLU:Blue Star Capital, which climbed a mighty 22% this week and is now only 47% down. Momentum may very well take this back into profit and give me a dilemma whether to keep or sell. I don't like the company at all and it was a mistake to buy them, so I suspect I'll get rid as soon as I can. I only invested £500 so not going to gain or lose very much whatever I do.




Thank goodness we're still above the injection line, but back to a new 12 month low.




Desperate

I got my 50 open offer shares in IES:Invinity Energy at 100p each, costing £50, and that also gave me 50 warrants due to mature over the next few years. Unfortunately the bid price is 90p so they are already 10% down, but they did reduce my weighted average to 397.9p. It will be a massive bonus if I ever get anything out of these shares as I was convinced they were going bust last year.

Potential profits dropped £300 thanks to the fall in JLP:Jubilee Metals and long term performance dropped by 0.1% to 10.2%, but at least that's still above target.




12-month low and not far off the injection line.




Dragging the trend line steeper down

A £41 dividend from PAF:Pan African Resources, profit up a tiny amount from the same company just about getting into profit and my iShares Physical Gold fund also being profitable. I'm not looking at the gigantic drop in portfolio value.




Just above the injection line, but if the Santa collapse continues we may cross it next week.




Really, really bad.

Could this possibly get any worse? Utter nightmare as everything falls yet again.




I had to change the axis else it would have gone below the bottom of the chart. Quite looking forward to a few weeks time when that red blip will be out of the way and it all looks much neater.




Now even sharper decline than the trend line.

I've given up hope of anything good happening before Christmas, as big news is unlikely to be announced next week. Let's hope 2022 is a bit kinder than 2021, as it's been a desperately bad year.
