Nice to see a a lot more blue today.😀

However, it's a shame that all those gains are getting wiped out by #OSB & #ZTF though🙄

Roll on 2025, my ISA is done with 2024. Looking at flat at best after a decent first 6 months. Something changed in July for sure.😒

Inevitable after yesterdays trim🙄
December 11, 2024 at 1:01 PM
📢SIPP tweak

Sold 40% of #LLOY holding for 17% profit and topped up #FXPO & #IPF holdings. Partly to rebalance the SIPP and also with an eye on the potential car finance claims hit.

With total sell out of #LLOY in ISA & this slice, total #LLOY holding reduced by ~80%.

Watch #LLOY fly now😂

I can't work out if this card is for a good occasion or a very, very bad situation.
