Hi Everyone, thought I'd start a thread for those interested in Stocks & Shares and sharing tips and ideas. To make it a good place to be, just a few suggestions .....
Let's not attack anyone for their thoughts and ideas - Plenty of room for that on the main board.
No one on here is qualified to offer share buying advice on this thread.
No one should ever take a hot tip from anyone without doing thorough due diligence and making an informed decision for themselves.
This is for discussion only. Anything on this thread is NOT a recommendation to buy.
So, here goes.... first thought.
Check out LQMT. I believe it will be a big mover on Tuesday night.

I somehow think that is going to be a long term investment. |

I don't really play with individual stocks, but I have investments with a platform called Plum.
I've wanted to get into it for years and decided to do it last year, although it's always slightly depressing when you lose money, but I have a lot of different portfolios. Unfortunately the current Ukraine situation has tanked many of mine, but I'm in it for the long term.

The Ukraine is going to be crushed by Putin fairly soon "Investing in the Rouble is a very risky proposition in my opinion. Say Russia occupies Ukraine tomorrow. Then what happens? Sanctions ramp up. Putin is already declaring sanctions as an act of war; does he then motor on to take over Moldova and the other Baltics? |

In my opinion, unless you buy and hold for 5-10 years, you are better off managing your own purchases. Time consuming but worthwhile. |

For the record, LQMT was $0.118 when I posted this. I believe it will be a value at anything under $0.14. (Subject to all disclaimers in initial post on this thread)

Surge Energy (SGY.TO) and Cardinal Energy (CJ.TO) on the Toronto stock exchange have been doing very nicely over the past month.
Both of these stocks should be paying a dividend by July on top of the 5% capital appreciation per day they have been getting.

Lqmt is currently 15.5 cents (30% up since I first mentioned ). I believe it will open at 20 cents on Wednesday and get to $1 by end of April. Again, this is not advice! Just my ramblings! |

The first thing I would recommend is to ditch your financial advisor as soon as you feel comfortable. I have used 4 different advisors in the past and only one has provided value for money. I still use 2 advisors to date but recently opened up my own trading account and will probably move most of my money into this account once I have decided on the when and where of retirement. My friends who manage their own investments have all done better than me with significantly less initial funds. If you manage your own investments you tend to be a little more wary. I have allowed my advisors to take bigger risks than necessary and it has cost me a lot (in fees and underperforming stocks/products). Living/working overseas doesn't help as there are a lot of unregulated advisors out there offering investment plans that were banned in the UK years ago. In my opinion, the UK appears to have a much tighter control on standards surrounding financial advice than other jurisdictions.
Having said that, if I was in the UK I would just open my own account with Fidelity, Vanguard etc and invest in tracker funds with super low annual charges. Perhaps using an advisor for one off advice every 12-24 months or so if you are still unsure. I would also recommend starting as early as possible. Once you get into the habit of saving money the compounding effect encourages you to save more.

I complicate mine a bit unnecessarily partly because I also have different currency and regulatory regimes. If I was in the UK I’d probably just use SIPPS and ISAs via Vanguard and invest periodically in their 80/20 fund, or such like. |

I’ve either got it all on red, or, if I’m diversifying, the dog that does his business in the show ring before the race.  |
