Investment account holdings:

Gulf Keystone - Holding at £1 until election results finalised and oil laws ratified and/ or takeover by big fish.

Booker - Holding at 46p until results but may sell then. Sold half my holding when it fell to 43p.

Aminex - Holding since 9p. Top sliced some profit at 16p. Took a loss on half my Booker holding and bought more on the recent dip to 12.75p. Looks like a good move!

S&S ISA:

Blackrock UK Abs Alpha ACC - showing a 3.68% gain since last Autumn

Ishares UK Property Reit - been drip feeding £100-150 a month in since January taking advantage of commission-free offer and lack of stamp duty on ETFS. currently showing 3.5% gain.

I am impressed he has 50% cash, I get the impression that most funds feel they must be fully invested even when the market is obviously tanking.

Obvously not now but in 2008 a great many fund managers just watched the market fall fully invested. The point about that financial fund is the manager being able to take a view on whether to be invested or not, looking at his record he seems to get it right more often than not.

WTN been going great guns recently, due to some recently positive broker updates and the inclusion in the S&P/TSX Composite Index.

Not sure if I'm tempting fate but...... all I need is another 23p and I will have my first ever '10bagger' (as they say). If this happens I will literally be.... :rotfl:

Would you have believed that Barclays could be a 7 bagger well on the way to 10

True. Likewise KAZ - hit as low as 170p in December 08. Currently 1523p and I think has the potential to exceed the 10 bagger mark. Oh to have perfect market timing
