About 20 years ago I put a sizable amount into green energy funds. In the first 6 months it went up 30% but then sacked in like a souffle when the oven door is opened. Went down to 15% of my investment.
Because what was left wasn't worth bothering about it. Just forgot I had them.
Now green energy is very much in and my shares are rising like an Apollo rocket. Almost got my money back now, but I'm optimistic that I will get into the black very soon. Glad I kept them now.
 
I won't wait. No funds available now ?. And if I had any spare I wouldn't put any of it in the UK while the consequence of Brexit is unknown. ??
 
I’ve been waiting for the opportunity. I made £40000 in 2001 and then last £20000 overnight with 9/11
These days I am into investment trusts. Thankfully didn’t get into Linsell Investment Train.
F and C is very good. They’ve been going 150 years and pay good dividends with the prospect of capital growth.
I wouldn’t touch retail in any way as it’s future must be very doubtful.
Buildings should be good because of the prospect of stamp duty reducing and interest rates staying low.
Vodafone is big and well diversified so should be a good investment. Many investments have them as part of their portfolio
 
My pittance of an investment is just about holding it's own so I'm happy at the moment. Might get more involved when I can feel comfortable about investing but for the meantime it's time to resist temptation. Interesting to hear what others are doing or have been doing. This is no get rich quick thing though!
 
There’s no get rich scheme.
I luckily switched some one of my pension investments from Aviva Commercial Property to Black Rock USA, luckily I did. Fifteen minutes later Sky News announced Aviva Commercial had been suspended for further investments and withdrawals.
Black rock have risen 40% in just three years. Hopefully coming up to retirement I’ll get the timing right to take it out
 
Are any of you able to recommend good blogs/articles/websites for people interested in getting started with this stuff??
 
When the US market opened it all looked good and then. . . . . . :( (must have lost nearly £1.20)

Hey ho! Still got my free share to come. I just know it will be something good!

On a whim I bought Blackstone - up 4% first day! And, just looking this morning, still going up! (US market not even open yet)
