AAL isnt a bad free share at all, very high debt, but i bought in on the dip, think it will struggle tho, also good to see you still up but a nice %

[@IainGeddes]

Hey CJ, yeah I think the same for sure - but definitely not complaining when it was free shares! 😂 Thanks!

Looks like a cool platform, I trade in the U.S. so I mostly trade on ThinkorSwim and Webull, but this platform has some nice polish. Keep up the good work.

[@IainGeddes]

Thanks! Yeah I’m a big fan of Trading212 for sure - not used anything else though so can’t really comment on other platforms. Thanks for the comment.

Nice to see you are still doing well, definitely putting your money in the right places to still be at a green after this hell of a week. I am just scraping in at +1% so also still in the green but not by a lot unfortunately. Nice to hear you going so much into depth on your stock choices 👍 Keep up the good work!

[@IainGeddes]

Thanks! Yeah, I’m surprised about that too - definitely seeing more green in my portfolio than I thought I would! Hey, at least you’re still up too! 👏 Yeah, went into a bit more depth on some of my stocks, but I feel I need to summarise things a bit quicker - still feel my videos are too long and I don’t blame people if they don’t watch them all. I want to aim for 10 - 15 minutes really, probably a better duration I think. Thanks again for the comment though, appreciate it as always. 😊

Really good portfolio! Great holding in the iShares FTSE, I got a decent dividend from them a few days ago too!

[@IainGeddes]

Thanks! Yeah I’ve already earned £40 in dividends since April thanks to these investments. The thing is I’m not even going for dividends really, I’m more of a growth investor, but the dividends are a major plus obviously! 😊 You got any more dividends coming up soon?

[@pandabossanna]

Iain Geddes think so! I’m in bed now but on my monthly dividend portfolio video you can see what stocks that I own // when they pay out :)

Up by 4% is excellent. I tanked badly last week, crashed from about 10% to 2% profit. Tomorrow is a new day though....

[@IainGeddes]

Thanks! It was actually 7.24% up last week, and now it's 4.33% - so it has dropped by 2.91% over the week, but definitely not as bad as some investors out there! Again, I think that is down to my ETFs helping to keep everything propped up so to speak. Like you say, tomorrow is a new day for sure. You planning to add anything this coming week? 🤔

[@danfw194]

@@IainGeddes Yep my ETFs held up ok too, but my individual stocks were grim, especially as I hold a lot in Facebook and that was a bloodbath on Friday!...dreadful PR at the minute. I may add a little, not sure whether to open up a brand new position or simply add to existing ones.
