The FTSE

Be careful. The recent share price rises are due to takeover bids but the latest news is that some shareholders are against it which could make the SP very volatile over the next few days. Anybody’s guess which way it will go but potential rises or falls could be quite dramatic.

I know, it’s just when to press the sell button !

Most dealing is done online these days and your best tactic is likely to be in the setting up of a stop-order. Example: Buy a clutch of shares at the market price at the time and at the same time place a stop-loss order at, say, 15% below what you bought them for. If the market goes against you, you will be out without being taken to the cleaners. But if the shares continue to rise, scrap that stop order and place a new one at a higher level than the old one, say 10% below the new price. If your shares keep on rising, just keep on adjusting that stop order upwards. If the price should suddenly reverse, you'll be out with a profit, hopefully. I work this way myself these days. It takes the emotion out of the game and I don't need to tear out my hair anymore!
 
Looking better today after the worst week since February. (Incl. DJIA, S&P etc).

I am indeed. My tip for everyone is Rolls Royce shares. Currently around £1. Once Covid is done with to a a degree I think room to double.

Without a doubt WW, they have invested around 100m (small change) in a new test bed at Derby and the first 6 months of this year has seen a small profit of 115m compared to a loss of around 5.5b last fiscal year. They are in negotiations to supply new engines on a lease basis with a major manufacturer and are also involved with a Nuclear project, double the price is the minimum expectation, three fold is not unrealistic.
 

Rolls-Royce is developing mini nuclear power plants

A consortium led by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has crafted design plans for small-scale nuclear power plants.

Even though it quotes Rolls Royce Auto I'm pretty confident it's RR UK, part of the non BMW owned group, I've already transported some test pieces from GM to the East Midlands for a trial project.

I took a punt on some Arrival (EV Vans) shares recently and they are down by ~50% at present... SWMBO says "they're the last shares you are ever buying" ;-)

Ive just offloaded shares at a 75% loss and will be treating myself to a new watch with the "proceeds". Sod it! Thankfully others have bailed me out but sick of watching them lose and then stagnate.

Been thinking of having a dabble on these after WW's tip. Anyone know where he lives? :)
