Which Shares Should I Invest In?

Saturday, 18 December, 2010 13:03 Written by Paul

Based on a fair bit of visitor feedback, I began to pen a piece on how I go about creating a pool of potential shares to invest in. Nothing to do with the actual final homework and selection process, just the first stage where I add to a list of potentials. Initially, it was going [...]

Purchase – Pan Pacific Aggregates

Thursday, 02 December, 2010 13:01 Written by Paul

The last of our November purchases was Pan Pacific Aggregates (PPA.L). We took up 446,161 shares (sounds impressive huh! I’d probably go with diluted) at 0.28 pence a share for a total outlay of £1,249.25. The plan here is to wait for these bad boys to hit £2.50 each and we’ve made our million and [...]

Not quite the volatility this week as in the past few weeks but Berkeley Mineral Resources (BMR.L) is still attracting a lot of investor attention following on from Friday’s interims (pdf file) and ahead of the much-anticipated confirmation of their Kabwe acquisition. Berkeley Mineral Resources in the news Berkeley Mineral has funding for Kabwe acquisition [...]

Sale – Asian Citrus Holdings

Thursday, 25 November, 2010 16:56 Written by Paul

Another juicy little sale to report. This time it’s Asian Citrus Holdings (ACHL.L), our vitamin C packed, Chinese agricultural friends. And again, after make considerable gains in just over 12 months, it’s a slice off the top and we’ll retain a nice little holding for the good times ahead. We bought into Asian Citrus back [...]

Another equity I love has recently felt the steel of my trading sword; Entertainment One. We’ve chopped the top off our ETO.L holding selling 1,067 shares for £1.17 a share on 15th November 2011. We bought in to Entertainment One back in May of this year at 61 pence a pop, so in effect we [...]

Sale – Hutchison China Meditech

With a handful of shares on my must-have before Christmas list we chopped the top off a few of our more profitable holdings last week. This is never easy to do, especially when you know there’s more to come. I’m a big fan of letting the good ones run (unfortunately I’ve been known to let [...]

This time it’s our holding of Ceramic Fuel Cells (CFU.L) that’s been given the chop. We sold off 5,546 shares at 10.50 pence a share [...]
