WTF do I do about National Grid? Very tempting rights issue but the shares are in my ISA and I can’t add money.

I've exercised my rights to the additional shares. I am also fully subscribed to this ISA, so cannot add additional funds.

I was intending to sell some of my other holdings in the ISA to raise the required cash to purchase the rights issue.

Think I'm heading down the same route.
Once the bruises ease from kicking myself for not selling at the end of last week when I was considering taking decent profits.

Yes, I am.

Don't intend to sell, and think there is still quite an upside to it.

I ducked out of a slice at $1038. I've been in since $18 and now felt the right time to bail to a degree. The majority is still there and I agree - I can't see where the end will be.

$18 jesus! hope you have more than 1.

When they hit $36 I sold half of them as it was the first time I'd owned a share that had doubled so quickly so was naturally suspicious of the weird little chip maker - so thought i'd get my initial amount out and see what happened from then on.

How much is the rights issue price for you is it cheaper than the market price or has the share price dropped to it anyway?

£6.45 for each share on the rights issue.

After Fridays fall, they are currently at £9.09

I sold some of my rights and will buy the additional shares with the dividend income I do have available from dividend income.

For those of us not in National Grid do you think the price will fall down closer to the issue price or the fall already has taken it into account. Its a share ive been looking at for a while?

There’s lots of opinions available if you Google. I’m retired so investing for income. Hopefully the dividends will be safe with a good yield.

I’d buy now but I’ve been wrong plenty of times.

It's getting to the stage where the 645p price is going to be higher than the SP!
Total ststorm now, they were one of my favourites.

RR did the same when it did a share offering for 39p it went right to exactly that ammount and bounced from it never to see that low again. but i forget what % they dilluted and Nationa grid have alot more regulation around them.

If it gets close to it ill heap a load of cash into it in the 600s itl be about 8% even with the reduced dividend.

I imagine a few of us in this ‘boring’ share tips thread own glaxosmithkline

Absolute tumble of 10% today after a judge ruled they can be taken to court for one of their medicines that may have caused cancer, litigations worth billions.

Gsk seems to have the most stable predictable range since 2013 1300 to 1700 ish for 9 years....

I bought AMD and NVIDIA at the same time over a year or so ago. I'm not going to tip NVIDIA as anyone and everyone is talking about them, but I think AMD probably still has some upside and is 25% below all time high.

On a non-tech related note: I think Smith & Wesson could be worth some exposure. A Republican President is always good for gun stocks and even if Biden gets a second term it may lead people to stock up on some new toys out of fear that further legislation is coming to restrict certain guns.

I just follow what this inside trader does, and recent just purchased a job-lot of $PANW.


https://twitter.com/PelosiTracker_

How's your portfolio going tracking her?

Edited by Trash_panda on Tuesday 27th February 16:12

The trading by politicians in the US has to be made public. They are allowed to (not prosecuted anyway) to trade on insider information which is why her annual salary of $200K has resulted in a net worth currently of around $200M dollars.

Thought would do an update on how the Pelosi tracker was doing - tbf apparently she has 25% in nvidia

You can follow her through Robinhood?

I saw this company on Twitter (Autopilot) and they post about her holdings (PANW, CRWD as well) and they offer a follow service (paid for obviously).

Might take a look at setting up Robinhood if this is possible.

Basically you connect Autopilot to Robinhood and then Autopilot sends the orders thru to them in proportion of her portfolio.

I've not put a lot in as concerned how legit Autopilot, but have now set up a recurring $500 a month copying her portfolio to see how that does.

Looks remarkably like snake oil to me. Good luck but I’ll not be investing and ‘I’m Out’.
