Ditching him because he's underperforming? Bollocks, they're ditching him because he's an anomoly and they don't know how to deal with it. Could be some kind of automated process or hack that's causing it, but it just smacks of them giving up and deleting him because they tried resetting his price and it didn't work.
Back to square one for me, although I do have two nice wads of cash to wave in your general direction.
Also more than half of those shares they claim are underperforming I have seen in the highest movers list over the last month or so. It'll just happen with someone else - even if it was hacks that started it, once people saw Paul O'Grady going up, they all jumped in too.
Well, bugger me. I followed FJ's advice and put all my monies in some cheap celebs (Jordan, Naomi Campbell, Piers Morgans and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy) and doubled my money! Dividend of £62669.53. Hurrah!
Although, I had kinda worked it out from reading that link FJ posted earlier. Ms Campbell did well for me this week. I happened to read the Beeb website shortly after the news broke about her having *another* tantrum and thought it might be worth a quick day-trade. When the price continued to rise I decided to hang onto her for the divvy.
Carla Bruni was less successful.
All told, I've gone from around 40k to over 100k this week, which is nice
Currently losing money hand over fist after not paying attention
Catherine Tate - New season of Dr Who starting, who knows...
Amy Whiiiiiiiiinehouse - always good for a laugh
Jonny Borell - last seen actin like a tit with lilly allen in london
Hurrah, bought a lot of shares in a handful of people with low prices (Duffy, Kanye West, Piers Morgan and I forget who else) and got over £100k dividends, about 94%. Duffy was the biggest winner I think.
I somehow managed to make over 140k from Duffy and Winehouse, despite Duffy crashing all week. I didn't manage to best Jack's percentile return but my best week by far.
