LOL I like your style.

Having mulled over the RNS from yesterday and AZ's interview today I'm not selling. On balance I still think/hope this will be massive in a few years.
Same. I don’t have a massive holding, but I think that there is more going on in the background than meets the eye.

70 partners, companies wanting to get involved, more acquisitions in the pipeline?
SYME

I agree there seems to be a lot going on in the background. I wonder if there is too much going on and they need to focus on getting at least one thing over the line (ideally real IM!) AZ is always looking at the next opportunity, if he has the money and first class team around him to make it all happen then great but if it's just him as a one man band then none of it will happen.

Also when he said "70 partners" I felt uncomfortable with him calling Negma a partner; surely they are more a pay day loan shark than a partner!

That's just me being sceptical. As an investor I think you have to blow hot and cold on all your investments to get a balanced view.

Next obstacle is get the accounts out the way, watch sp drop, then hopefully we will only get good news RNS after that.

PIER

Brighton Pier Group, just bought the struggling Lightwater Valley (read, absolutely ruined and needs millions spending) combined with eventual lockdown easing to see a bit of movement. No idea on the proper financials but that's this thread isn't it? At least the electric tramway next door could support an even larger wheelbarrow.

Totally agree, my SYME/EUA/EQT all looking like a sack of steaming doggy-doo right now. BUT last year I was looking for quick returns following recovery from the covid cliff edge in March 2020; this year I've realised I have to be more of an investor and wait.

I no longer sell to stop losses as many of those I did this on subsequently recovered quickly and flew.

I no longer try and trade as no one (me least of all) can time those peaks and troughs.

I'm now practising "time in the market" and "dyor" as well as making sure I don't move my sensible money (INVP etc) into the more risky gambles.

I'm lucky that I can sit back for 3 years from here for my gambles to come good (or die), I do miss the excitement of a year ago when everything was swinging up/down massively. But now I'm largely just going to be patient and wait 3 years.

Good luck!
Im exactly the same although the reality is all my cash is in a few now and I have to leave them to see if they take off as i would shoot myself now if i pulled out and it happened. I would love to be back to buying selling every day as it was such fun but all cash pretty much tied up.

So true. I am going to sit on what I have got now, and maybe tweak 10% only

I don’t want to think where I’d be if I had held what I started with in March 2020, but MNZS was my biggest holding FFS

Bit of a covid treatment stock but anyone tempted by Merck (NYSE: MRK)

Might be a bit late now though as theyve just received 1.3Bn funding from the US Gov. But original manufacturers of Invectermin (thats been used with some success around the world to treat covid but the patent has ended so free for all), have a new drug coming out thats meant to be or will be 'approved' for use or something like that.

Currently at 77 USD, peak was 87 in Jan 2020 and seems to be following same dips/troughs pre-covid

Kodal off to a flyer again this morning up another 11% and climbing

Seemingly their starting drilling on Monday

Still believe this will happily hit 0.01 before the summers over

Eye's on NCYT this morning.

Things looking a little more positive today, it looks like they are lining up to get off the French lisiting which has been dragging the share down.

Results due on Tuesday according to today's RNS.

Sorry to hear that. I was very tempted to sell when it had it's first major tick up but have held fast and now 425% up currently. They have major assets in the the ground so feels like just a matter of time before a JV / buy-out so I am holding until it pays a decent chunk off my mortgage...fingers crossed.

On the same note, looking back over trades in the past few months there are far more stocks that I regret selling as they later flew than stocks that I regret buying.

Sold some more of my Nvidia holding today at $766 (bought at $550).

Next decision is whether to offload Amazon at a good exchange rate. It's been really dull.

My meme stocks haven't been doing so great, although Ontrak appears to be slowly going up. I'm quite gutted to have missed a good trading week due to not having any internet.

Buy it of SYME yesterday doing well. 0.32 seems to be a good base. I’m trading the amount I put in. Currently 8% up. I know they last performance blah blah but 24/11/20 0.33 then up to 0.40 few days later.
11/05/21. Exactly the same.

Selling some SYME Mon/Tuesday. Way over exposed so need to sell some. 80% of portfolio now is getting silly. I’m
