I often have a to do list for around the house which I have mostly ticked it all off. I need a sort my my life out list which includes financials

I do alright but need to think more outside super where I have more control but not a SMSF if you know what I mean.

I'm not into property so have to figure out what else I want to do

The easiest you could do(In My opinion) would be to Salary sacrifice into your Super. Will be Tax effective as you're only Taxed on the Post Sacrifice amount..

I need the cash flow though. I can put it in my mortgage and get it out if I want to.

I should note that there are carry forward unused concessional cap contributions. Definitely take advantage if you can.

Agree.

So update on some of my portfolio since my last posts here. Some have come back down price wise, some are now even losing me money, certain few have exploded, and I've sold a handful for some profit taking.

4DS: 3.1c to 4.8c to 9.9c to 8.7c
BCT: 6.0c to 4.5c to 5.8c to 4.6c
BLG: 3.2c to 8.4c to 9.2c to 3.4c
BRN: 4.0c to 27.0c to 35.5c to frkn $1.735! Yes, >4000% growth!!
CM8: 1.5c to 2.4c to 6.4c to 4.1c
LNU: 1.0c to 2.6c to 2.9c to 1.8c
MEB: 0.6c to 1.2c down to 1.1c to 0.4c
SP3: 5.5c to 6.0c back to 5.5c to 6.1c
DW8: 0.7c to 3.3c to 4.8c to 4.2c, after briefly peaking at 20c
APT: $17.26 to $78.95 to $101.85 sold my shares at $130 before it dropped to $67 after being acquired by SQ2
SUL: $3.96 to $10.51 back to $10.11 to $12.14, please keep shopping at Supercheap!
PPH: $3.11 to $7.86 back to $7.07 to $1.015 after a 4:1 split
CCP: $9.14 to $19.12 to $22.49 to $31.93
M7T: 46.0c to 95.7c to $1.13 to 77c

Also notable:

WBT: 23.9c to $3.65
ONE: 4.7c to 26c
NOV: 12c to 29c
CTD: $7.99 to $20.58
MVF: 43c to $1.06

Sold my MQG shares, bought at $83.66 during Covid, sold at $196.54
Bought YFZ at 49.2c and sold 2 months later at 90.5c after a takeover announcement.

All up an 83.7% appreciation in my investment in <24 months, and have cashed in a $9k profit. Which of my shares will be the next Intel is my question! BRN has great potential, WBT and DW8 will also do well.

Dont buy index funds LOL. Yes, the last 6 months have been pretty crap, but that was bound to happen sooner or later, but overall since I started (Nov 20) I'm up 20% which is better than the dismal 1% the banks were offering. I dont have the level of interest to pick shares. I'm just dropping in $5k every few months and will for the next 10 years, and if there's enough to carry me through to 65yo, then I'll retire.

I dumped a wad against BHP last week. I think there's a fair bit of capital appreciation upside with the dual listing ending and some super-tasty franking credits available.

zilo · 06-02-2022, 11:35 PM

Sucks to be a shareholder in facebook...

zilo · 26-02-2022, 09:19 PM

Felt good yesterday, saw a military conflict progressing.

Gold price usually goes crazy when that happens....so took a gamble.

Sold my gold bullion...made a very good profit between 9am and 3 pm.

By 5pm price dropped...big time.

Beers are on me...

naddis01 · 11-04-2022, 11:42 AM

How is everyone going? I'm up about 110% YTD now. Who needs crypto.

I grabbed Wooside before the announcement and its up 35% currently so its offsetting some others.

I tried an EFT ACDC, which was going well but has dropped off a bit. I haven't got the time or patience to be day trading so just looking for dividends. Same story with Wesfarmers which is a bit disappointing.

Ill have to crank up a spreadsheet at some point to keep track of it.

RIO is doing OK so was thinking of putting some in another miner but may look at a different one instead of BHP.

Ive been told Whitehaven is not a bad option but I know how they operated Mauls and Narribri and stuffed if I know how they are making money..LOL

Plenty of apps out there where you can manage and monitor a portfolio. I use MSP (My Stocks Portfolio) on Android.

Regarding the market this year, I'm down YTD, but still up over 50% overall.

I'm keenly watching PYPL (Paypal), if it comes back down under $100 I'll be buying (missed it when it bottomed at $93, but it's also come off of a high of $300, which I think it'll get back to).

Nice, interested in how the app can track back when we bought and what has been paid out etc.

We are roughly even, or about 2% up but still better than sticking it in the bank.

I thought to grab some QANTAS when it was low as well with the thought that after the pandemic and people get going again it might bounce back better than the others...still not going well but perhaps another 2-3 years to regain then ill flick it.
