You may have spotted that I bought more Netplay TV (Epic code NPT) back on Monday 21st March 2016 at 9.75p. The Company is best known for the ‘SuperCasino’ show it runs on ITV and Channel Five late at night but it also has other Online Gambling websites, including a Sports Betting bit. I have held this Stock for a couple of years but never put much money into it as it is a low Market Cap and had some trouble over the introduction of the Gambling ‘Point of Consumption’ Tax (POC) and the new regulatory environment for Online Gambling Companies.

You may have noticed that on Christmas Eve, I bought into Quantum Pharma (Epic Code: QP.) at 105p. This might have been a surprise because recently I wrote a Blog entitled ‘A Ropey looking Chart - featuring Quantum Pharma QP.’, however, if you managed to get to the end you might have noticed that I was actually quite taken by the pure Numbers on the ShareScope ‘Details’ Screen and this led me to do further Research because I could sniff Money and the Stock looked on the cheap side.

You may have noticed that I bought some Galliford Try (Epic Code GFRD) Shares today at 1469p and I also did an equivalent sized Spreadbet at about 1462p - I did the Shares straight after the Spreadbet so it is surprising just how fast the price changed (normally I would expect the Spreadbet price to be within a few pence.) I have gone straight in quite heavy here because I really like the GFRD business and Readers may have seen from various comments that I am generally pretty Bullish on the Markets at the moment and I want to maximise the opportunity which I think exists. I have gone for an exposure of 3% to GFRD in my overall Total Portfolio Exposure - so no mucking about.

If you follow me on Tweets or have looked at the ‘Changes List’ on my Homepage, you might have seen that I bought a Long Spreadbet on FTSE100 at 6389 late on the Evening of Thursday 26th November 2015 (equivalent to about 20% of my existing Long Exposure via Stocks in my Trading ISA and Spreadbets) and I wanted to do a quick Blog to show my reasoning and to also do a quick glimpse at how the FTSE100 and S&P500 look for the coming Weeks and for December.

You might have noticed that I picked up some more Sainsburys SBRY shares on Monday 16th November at 242p for my Income Portfolio - so they now make up about 10% of the Income Portfolio exposure. I had been weighing up whether or not to buy more SBRY for a while and was sort of dithering because obviously the Sector faces some challenges at the moment. However, my Decision was forced a bit because I wanted to buy more Shares in something following the Terrorist Attacks in Paris on Friday 13th November - because if everyone Sells when the Market re-opens after the Weekend then we are letting them scare us and surrender to their vile intentions.

As ever, I am tight for time so I decided to do a short Blog which just explains the thinking behind the 2 Buys I did on Friday 6th November. Telecom Plus TEP Topup I already hold a lot of TEP in my Income Portfolio ISA and I have been watching them for what seems like ages in order to add a little more to a Spreadbet Position that I have on them, I am pretty Bullish on the Markets and I want to have full exposures to good Stocks where I can and I felt the TEP Position was a bit small.

Back on Thursday 29th October 2015, I added to my Aviva AV. Position with a Spreadbet at 490p and now have a nice chunky Stake. I won’t do a huge Blog here but just a quick glimpse of my thinking behind the Buy. At a High Level, you may have seen comments from me on the Website and on Tweets that I think it is a good idea to really pile into the Markets in a big way to take advantage of the Historically strongest period of the Year - i.e the Winter and in particular December (please, please can we have a lovely Santa Rally?)

I hadn’t originally intended on doing a Blog for this Topup but a request from a Reader made me think it was worth bashing something out as this is a great example of how I add to Winners to ensure I maximise the opportunity within each Position I hold. Note I have already Topped Up on TTR once and I have now done so again - ‘Push the Position’ as Traders would say. The Key Concept here is that you must ‘Add to Winners and Starve the Losers‘……..

You may have noticed that after my initial ‘Foot in the Door’ Buy on ARM Holdings (Epic Code: ARM) about 2 months ago, I massively boosted my Position in ARM on Friday 23rd Sept 2015, taking it up to 5% of my Total Portfolio Exposure so it is now a significant Stake. I bought a Chunk of Shares at 1049p and some more Spreadbets at 1051p - please see the ‘Trades’ page of my Website for full details.

If you are keeping up, you may have noticed that I bought a chunk of Empiric Student Property (Epic code: ESP) on Wednesday 7th October 2015 at 109p for my Income Portfolio and I added to this position today with a Spreadbet at 109p. This Company listed back in June 2014 and has had a nice steady Uptrend since - that is something I always like. Buy Momentum. For many years I have been a big fan of Unite Group UTG but in reality I have rarely been in the Stock and have missed out on huge gains - both these companies acquire Properties and refurbish them to rent out to Students. Despite all the rhetoric from the usual suspects, Student Numbers are growing extremely fast despite the introduction of Fees and Loans. This growth is also being boosted by the Government removing the cap on the total number of EU and UK students - this has meant more EU Students and the number grew by 11% last year. This trend is expected to continue particularly because Universities are now actively advertising their wares abroad. All those Students have got to live somewhere and they tend to pay up front for 51 Week Leases in ESP Buildings - so it is a very stable and lucrative Cash generator. |
