Yes. A bit of a punt. Been reading up on SOU.

Who knows.

I read up on FRR. I need to be careful though otherwise my portfolio is going to be too heavily weighted towards gas and oil.

Have a look at Sepura. Looks like a 20p take over is on the cards.

The Spanish just need to say yes. The Germans have already.

Might be worth a punt.

News from SEPURA.



It never rains but it pours. Just as downtrodden Sepura shareholders had a glint of light at the end of the tunnel with the positive news regarding the German competition authority, the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has stuck its oar in at the last minute. The prospect of high value jobs being lost in Cambridge after a Chinese takeover at what used to be called Pye - a pioneer in British technology, not to mention any national security issues means this takeover has suddenly got very political.

It wouldn't surprise me if the final decision on whether to review the takeover will go to the PM on national interest grounds. The shares could fall to under 10p on this news.

Opened a LISA today with nutmeg. It's a stocks and shares account with low risk (6/10) and has no exit fee which is good because I want to move it into a cash account once there are more providers.

Go get them 25% savings accounts you youngsters! :D

So SOU dropped back on some negative news but still believe they will produce and are working to a liquidity event next year.

UK Oil and Gas drilling near conaero are said to be sat on the Motherlode and have just had flow testing approval to test over 1000ft of net pay!

FRR set to become the next big thing and also CPX are well worth a look with their new tech for smartphones etc... as usual DYOR!

Conaero Pension adviser says:

"...forget traditional pensions, buy a second (or third/fourth) property or the office you work from, get renters to pay the thing off over 10 years then retire on the rent with the value of the property as a fall back plan, worked for me. Flat 20% tax on the rental earnings. This way when you want to retire, the fecker who promised the world and delivered nothing wont leave you up sh!t creek without a paddle"

Seriously though, this is what I did, my office gets paid off this xmas and I can take early retirement if I want. I am 46 and bought the office when I was 41. Something to think about.

Value: £250k, annual rental: £24k, minus 20% tax clears £1,650 a month. Not many pensions offer that return after tax.

State pension on top, should be ok.

Penny shares are a massive risk. And should never be more than 10% of your portfolio.
Better of using a spreadbet or cfd on them with a tight stop.

Bricks a mortar are the safe bet. Especially if you have the cash at the mo.
Falling house prices mean you'll get more for your money.

Of course they are a risk but massive reward if/when they do come off.

10% of what? I'm not in any FTSE shares? Rarely will you make money in those. In other things, cars, collectibles, property etc but loving the share dealing again after I stopped trading in 2008/9 when the market collapsed. I like the research element of it!

Of your total portfolio.

You can make plenty of money in FTSE shares. Look for the ones paying the dividends.
Metals are always a good one to look at as well. Not just Gold Silver and Platinum either.
Plenty of money to be made on the 'lesser' metals.

FTSE for me doesn't have the swings, I very rarely day trade them but it's dull. Much prefer the minnows and 20% swings in a day. 100% of both accounts is in AIM minnows.
