Week 459 Review - Recent good fortune reverses but bought some National Grid.

A really good week for some of my shares, but a bad one for some of my bigger holdings. The deficit between cost and value widened by £1,903 to £107,551 and deficit between injection amount and value is £41,777, with total portfolio value £108,850. I did however take some profits and withdrew some of my holiday money which had an impact.

My new purchase NG.:National Grid fell 12% on the ex-date for the rights issue, which was expected. I did qualify for the rights issue and will take them up, so hoping that will reduce my average enough to get back to break even. Not a great start for a new share, but it's part of a master plan.

ARBB:Arbuthnot Banking dropped 6%, but this seems to be mostly down to a widening of the spread so I'm not too concerned.

PAF:Pan African Resources fell 5% which I suspect is some profit taking after the recent steep rise.

SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics continues to slide and dropped 5% this week.

AJB:AJ Bell has been on a great run and went up another 7% this week to go 26% up.

AFC:AFC Energy are well into profit now after going up 9%. These are 14% up altogether.

Share of the Week is my other Hydrogen company CWR:Ceres Power, which shot up 19% and are now 3% in profit.

Here's the ISA and shares portfolio after week 43 of year 9.

I sold 16,072 shares in JLP:Jubilee Metals from my AJ Bell dealing account at 8.52p making £274.35 (25%) profit. I extracted £900 back into my holiday fund and moved £500 into my ISA. I used the £500 to buy 2,175 shares in IES:Invinity Energy at 22.98p costing £504.82. I've held these in my main ISA for years, but at an average price of 161.9p from when they were RedT Energy. I thought they were going bust, but the recent open offer and fund raise gives me hope they have turned a corner, and I still believe vanadium redox flow batteries are the future for grid energy storage.

I received a £32 dividend from CAML:Central Asia Metals and £18 from CAPD:Capital but value and potential profit both took a bit of a dive.


Just not closing that gap.


The trend line is almost flat. If we don't get above it next week I fear it will start pointing downwards.

The SIPP looks like this after week 443 overall and week 27 of year 9.

Compound performance40%+1%

I got a whopping £338 dividend from CAML:Central Asia Metals, and then sold some of them, as it's ages until the next dividend and I intend to buy them back when I sell my SIPP JLP:Jubilee Metals holding. I only sold 460 shares for 222.5565p making £184.55 (21.9%) profit. I used most of the proceeds to buy 98 shares in NG.:National Grid for 1016.387p costing £1,012.99. I did this because they had plummeted 10% after news of a rights issue. I figured I was getting cheap shares plus qualifying for the 28 shares in the rights issue at 645p and a dividend too. My weighted average will be 933.85p which seems pretty good, in the long term at least.

I added a bit of cash to the CAML dividend and bought another 359 shares in UKW:Greencoat UK Wind at 139.265p costing £514.41. I want to get some more of these to access their generous dividend. It also brought my HL account average down from 156p to 150p.

Share price and potential profits both slumped but nice to see projected year 9 performance above the 10% target at 12.5%.


The gap seems narrower than on the ISA


Trend line is still pointing upwards, but not for much longer.

The trading account looks like this after week 409 overall and week 45 of year 8.

A bad week for everything after a really good run. Maybe I should have sold JLP:Jubilee Metals after all.


Hope it's a blip


Still very healthily above the tend line

I'm 2 weeks late writing this so nothing more to say.
