Week 432 Review - A great week for most shares, but my biggest holdings drop.

It wasn't a bad week for most shares, but some of my biggest holdings fell and so the deficit between cost and value widened by £1,421 to £89,883 and total value dropped to £111,473.

Worst performer was BLU:Blue Star Capital which lost half of last week's inexplicable gains and dropped 18%.

SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics fell another 13% as my recent investment is decimated.

KIBO:Kibo Energy dropped 10% and I'm sure will never recover from the current 100% loss.

On the brighter side, ASHM:Ashmore Group recovered from an utterly miserable few months by rising 6%, but is still 40% down.

BARC:Barclays also rose 6% but is still 14% down in my trading account.

CEY:Centamin responded to the increase in gold price better than EDV:Endeavour Mining and climbed 6% to go 24% down.

PAGE:Page Group keep flirting with going into profit, and climbed 6% to go only 5% down. Will I be able to bed them into my ISA soon without having to record a paper loss?

ANTO:Antofagasta went up 7% and are now only 9% down so also getting towards profitability.

CAML:Cental Asia Metals are now one of my larger holdings and climbed 7% so my most recent purchase is only 1% down.

CWR:Ceres Power are so volatile, but this week in the right direction as they increased 7%.

III:3i Group have been a rare example of a successful magic formula share, and rose 7% to go 33% up.

Share of the Week is PSN:Persimmon which climbed 8% for no reason I could detect, and are now only 15% down.

Here's the ISA and shares portfolio after week 16 of year 9.

Not much going on. The 11p dividend was a fractional sum following the share consolidation at RDT:Rosslyn Data and is probably the only return I will ever get from that investment.

The decline continues

Touching the trend line but not below it

The SIPP looks like this after week 416 overall and week 52 of year 8.

Much smaller losses in this account thanks to the gains in other stocks.

Looks nice and flat. Still encouragingly close to the injection line.

Still above the trend line - yippee!

A rare increase in value!

Have we bottomed out?

Still a long way to go to recover.

That's 2 out of 3 weeks caught up. One more to go...
