Looking to choose from a mix of:
* PIB's
* GILTS
* ETF's
* Preference Shares
Appreciate any feedback, views, hints & tips.... thanks.:T

Coventry BS 6.092% PIBS look attractive at the current price under 80p - yield 7.6% ( I hold in my sipp)0

Gilts are pretty expensive at the moment as they are seen as a safe haven. I think you would get a better return and less chance of losing some capital with a fixed rate deposit account.0

The question is, how long is your investment time frame? If it's short then all the above could be considered high risk - and vice versa.0
