Week 556 Review - A good week for many shares despite a big drop on Thursday.

It was looking like a great week until Thursday, when I lost £2k of my weekly gains, but the deficit between cost and value still narrowed by £3,634 to £154,069 and the deficit between injection and value has reduced to £63,899. Portfolio value has increased to £120,989 helped by a new £2.5k injection.

The only big faller this week is JLP:Jubilee Metals, which dropped 6% after uninspiring interims.

ATYM:Atalya Mining, DXRX:Diaceutics, KNOS:Kainos Group and SBTX:SkinBioTherapeutics  all went up 6%, although SBTX was suspended during the week after not having completed their finances while investigating the actions of their recently sacked CEO. Hopefully that will be resolved so they don't plummet when the suspension is lifted.

ASHM:Ashmore Group and FNX:Fonix went up 7%.

EDV:Endeavour Mining and IES:Invinity Energy went up 8%.

RIO:Rio Tinto went up 9%.

THX:Thor Explorations went up 12 % but are still 14% down.

PAF:Pan African Resources recovered 13% and were a major contributor to this week's gains, now up by 385%.

III:3i Group dropped 14% last week after an update on its main holding, Action. I thought the drop was way too much, and was right because they re-gained all 14% this week. Unfortunately my monthly investment is next week.

PBX:Probiotix Health had another great week and is rising steadily after good results. They went up 17% this week, and as one of my biggest holdings were a major contributor.

Share of the Week was GGP:Greatland Resources which went up a massive 27% after announcing a globally significant tungsten deposit on their land. They are now up by 78% and I maybe should have bought more of these than I did.

Here's the ISA and shares portfolio after week 36 of year 11.

A slight drop in value due to the drop in JLP:Jubilee Metals not quite being offset by the increase in PBX:Probiotix Health. A rare ISA dividend of £17 from ASHM:Ashmore Group. Potential profits crept up £23 as AMRQ:Amaroq went back into the black.

Not very encouraging.

Still below the trend line.

The SIPP looks like this after week 540 overall and week 20 of year 11.

Cash went up with the injection of monthly savings ready for next week, and I also had a pension transfer of £2,300 so cost went up £2,426. A good week for many of my shares, with value up £3,685 and £2,652 of that is increased potential profits. My £22 dividend arrived from PAF:Pan African Resources and I also got £19 from FNX:Fonix.

My first transfer investment was in TAM:Tatton Asset Management, where I bought 188 shares at 583.75p costing £1,104.40. They dropped 2% by the end of the week.

My other purchase was 178 shares in ATYM:Atalya Mining because the recent drop was way over-done. I paid 738.575p a share after recently paying 1000p in the retail offer. They cost £1,321.61 and reduced my average price to 859p so my shares are 15% down after being well in profit a few weeks ago. The bid price ended the week at 741p so a tiny bit up on my purchase price.

Slowly reversing the recent war-fuelled declines.

Still a way to go to get back to even the levels of 12 months ago.

Not long till the trend line catches up.

Next Friday should see my regular savings trades, with my last purchase of III:3i Group and my 3rd of 5 purchases in ESTC:European Smaller Companies Trust. I'll need to decide what to switch III to next month. Many of my top 30 ranked companies are not available to regular investments, so it will need to be a company I'm already holding. Top options at the moment are BPM:BP Marsh & Partners and FOUR:4imprint.
