This is bent beyond belief. It's as clear as day what he's done.

Quite amazing really.

SO many people (granted some were idiots for not selling) have lost a hell of a lot because of QPP.

[Shnozz]

Beats the 9-5 I guess.

Some serious strength in this market for now still waiting for a pullback. Got long some baba at 110.60 will load up on more if it sees 107.

Had some DDD from the other day looking good so far probably sell it around 37.

Gold had a nice move up from last week not quite sure if it's bottomed yet.

Anyone been involved with Fitbug or keeping track of that. It's got to be one of the wonder stories of 2014.

Thoughts please - are there any companies at the forefront of drone technology who are worth investing in?

The obvious one is GPRO - every drone sold = at least one GoPro sold.

Does AMZN still hold an interest in drone technology?

Thanks

Amazon are at the forefront of drone technology - but they aren't using it yet.

When they do use it (and yes they will one day) they will certainly do it all in house.

If you dont mind me asking, what is your rating on Amazon at the moment? Buy? Sell? Avoid?

I'd certainly have it as part of a portfolio. I think we will see 400 again in the next couple of months.

I'd personally avoid Facebook, Twitter, Netflix.

If you don't mind my asking what is your post-tax ROI ex-AMZN on your angel investing?
I was thinking about diversifying into something exactly like Seedrs.

Jimmy Choo is up again today, hopefully I've got this right after losing a lot on supergroup.

Looks like FITB is getting dumped now (down 10% at the time of this post)

Still waiting for the right price to buy into QPP?

I see the latest news did sweet FA to the SP.

Investing in gpro for the long term, not so sure thats a good idea. Short term trading it a different matter.

Yeah - I am not going to bother running the numbers.
Common sense says - # of drones sold per annum will be vanishingly small vs. the number of GPRO units.
High end drones come with their own built in camera anyway.

Won't move the needle for them.

Not picking a fight with anyone but not so convinced with Amazon as a longterm investment either, I'll stick to trading it.

Wall St has always gives Amazon a free pass on cash flow and profits, it's a top line growth story. I think that view is changing.

In short Amazon is priced as if your investing in the future, forget the profits for now because the reinvestment will lead to marketshare and revenue growth. IMO they need to start showing that soon the last few quarters haven't been great. How long before the street looses patience.

Friend of a friend got involved with them at 2p. Sold yesterday at 20p. I have no idea why anyone would buy down there, it was a total punt, unless they have some form of fortune telling skills. Saying that....they also held QPP, months ago their tarot card reader said they would lose a lot of money on the investment and the person closed it for about 30% loss when share price was >£1.
