I’m sitting on my pension cash at the moment. It hit the Fidelity account on Friday morning. In accordance with my mantra get stuck in I was about to invest it. As it will all go into SSON I think I’ll hold back (what a hypocrite).

Seems like some lucky timing. SSON is a good 6% cheaper than it was a couple of weeks ago.

That’s not the best bit when I sold my Fundsmith holding with AJ Bell I got £54* per unit. It’s been worth the anguish of being out of the market so far.

Well, granny is back but does nothing more than suck on her pipe, sip brandy and sleep.

Gold is living on the glory of it's past headlines, in £GBP it is a third up over twelve months, but 7.5% off its all time high. This Q3 analysis from the World Gold Council gives more detail.

Spreads reflect a higher UK demand to buy, but 2.5% is still available. Those wishing to sell can find a dealer who only charges 1%; but you can also accept a 6.5% haircut if you wish.

Elm Investments and Atkinsons are still top of the  league, Bullion by Post remain in the relegation zone and Hatton Garden Metals have put on a poor show for purchasers, but they still pay a good price to sellers..._

Still trading a premium to NAV though.

Yes agreed, though a touch lower than the normal 2-3%. However one of my lowest premium's at the moment since I moved into infrastructure, green energy and private equity a little this March.
