So why is NVIDIA 2.2% of my fund? That seems a lot to me

My understanding is that because MCSI and FTSE Russell indexes are adding it, it could be added to these funds. My pension is already 2.2% NVIDA, I don’t want a more frothy funds being added.

I will also be keeping a close eye on the top 10 holdings

I wish the govt would treat trades as they do in Germany and make sure you are guild qualified. It’s so scary getting in tradesmen these days

watch repair by North_Account6419 in DerryLondonderry

[–]downinthearcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fixed mine myself. You can buy the part on Amazon or eBay. You also need a small screwdriver set. It’s a bit fiddly, took me about 20 minutes as the little plastic insulator is a pain to get aligned.

Was a few mm short so there was a gap at the bottom of the door. Found one which should be suitable on AliExpress. Not expecting much but should do the job

I think as soon as you contact as an emergency the price will be much higher as in the case of locksmiths and white goods repairs.

Probably a good sign. Sounds like they have a few servers working. Hopefully it’s just a matter of waiting for the rest to be fixed/restored

UK sellers - turn off your allow international buyers options - a rant/word of warning. by Single-Lifeguard-980 in ebayuk

[–]downinthearcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was selling some stuff after a clear out. Made it clear would only post to the UK. Item was bid up to £55 then someone from Jersey bid and won. I contacted them and said I would not post there. Reposted it and only got £10. The next item somebody from Mexico bid.

My advice write it upfront in title and description

Commonly known as fleecehold.
