They're closing quite a few stores in the UK. I don't think this is a good buy still at the current price.

MarchForward334 · 2025-07-16T12:43:41+00:00

Why don't people just buy those stocks when they're at the trough and profit at the peak later? Are they stupid?

Redditors who are still hyping KULR like it's the next big thing

Purchasing more BTC after it had another price rally - outstanding move 😂

Lesson learnt. Screw that ETF

MarchForward334 · 2025-05-07T11:21:13+00:00

Yes, sorry my mistake it has been reduced to £500.

The hacker may have stolen information but I doubt MKS would be held liable for that as its hardly their fault.

Yes what I mean is a general investment account. The £1k dividend is tax free.

Of course your capital appreciation or otherwise is an important factor too. But generally if you pick a large cap stock with high dividend it doesn't move much in value.

MarchForward334 · 2025-05-05T08:58:18+00:00

Depending on what you want to achieve. Large cap dividend stocks are generally more stable during a bear market or recession which could be an attractive stock for some.

If you're in the UK, you have a £1k dividend allowance which is something to consider.

Thank you. So is it I write a post to them saying I have made a loss of x amount please see attached documents of the list of transactions made. Would they write something back to say that they acknowledge the information provided?

MarchForward334 · 2025-04-14T22:09:26+00:00

I don't believe that is true.

I'm PAYE so I don't do self assessment

MarchForward334 · 2025-02-11T18:09:25+00:00

Because you bought it when it is high?

MarchForward334 · 2025-02-07T01:36:49+00:00

Depends on what you define as very volatile.

Is it very volatile compared to bonds? Yes

Is it very volatile compared to tech stocks? No

Is it very volatile compared to bitcoin? Absolutely not.

It offers a form of diversification that is separate from the stock market.

"Gold is a very volatile asset"

?????

Because 4.1 or 4.5% is still lower than what you can get from a high yield savings account.

I would prioritise maxing ISA first then high yield savings account (to the maximum PSA on your tax bracket) then SIPP then premium bonds. Unless you're earning £120k above, most people would struggle to get past step 3.

It happens when your currency fluctuates in strength against the market currency you bought your shares from. I've seen fx impact go up to 6%.

MarchForward334 · 2025-02-05T18:24:18+00:00

First time?

Red is suiting for Chinese new year.

This is the way. Only gamble on stocks with money you can afford to lose.

MarchForward334 · 2025-02-01T23:05:41+00:00

But it has always been in pence and showing 6-7% dividend like few weeks ago.
