Out their in cyber space, there are thousands if not millions of you with different jobs and qualifications.
Can you answer any questions, or do you have a question!

Question
I regularly look at the pages of trades that go through on shares that I hold; often I see,
1 share buy or sell. This dose not make sense to me, I have to pay 11.95 per trade, so to buy or sell, just 1 share at maybe 20p it just dose not add up.
I know if a company consolidated you could be left with an odd 1!
Anyone any ideas?
10/1/06 1 share buy in SEO 16p ?
10/1/06 1 share buy in EEN 213p ?

Ive seen your question asked before some brokers will reinvest your divi for no charge (Fidelity do i think) might be a small divi being reinvested.Or a punter buying a share to get an annual report or http://www.framedshare.co.uk/results.asp?txtSearch=1fashion

i still dont know

An unrelated question. If I were to open a self select ISA what are the limits on the listed shares I can buy? I believe AIM shares are not permitted. Can I hold international shares in the ISA? Also, I have bought US shares listed on the NASDAQ but i have bought them through the LSE's International Retail Service thus the shares are listed in London in GBP. Any ideas? If you ever call brokers like Hoodless Brennan, Halifax etc you get some 18yr old numbskull on the other end of the line.

Question
What came first the chicken or the egg?
I reckon the chicken cos eggs come from Asda.... Any ideas??

Question,
Are there any benefits to trading CFDs compared to spread betting as no tax to pay on either, is one better than the other?

Griffin ,you pay tax on the profits you make trading CFD's .only spread bets are tax free.

I don't pay tax on any of my stock market investments.
Its complicated, but try to follow it.
I NEVER MAKE ANY SODDING MONEY!!!!!!!!

Is it just me or is the market really constipated today?

..

Where is the best place to find historic share prices, specifically closing prices on the 6th Nov 2011?

Harry, Yahoo seem to carry them, here is LLOY

Excellent, thanks for that. Found loads of sites which require registering or payment, but this one looks to fit the bill.

The bill's in the post :-)

Harry you can also find what you want on Big Charts on the interactive chart. It gives you open end of day and high and low of day.Just whisk your cursor over the day required.

can any one explain to me this,
range resources 2 AT trades at 3.24p and 3.25p respectively.
both trades 1 share sells.
why sell do people sell 1 share?

thanks in anticipation.

They found it when clearing out their bottom draw.

Or to balance their book!

As I have a modest income from a few sources, I use an accountant to input the figures I give him to process my online tax return. It only costs me about £300 per year, so I consider it money well spent to get it right.
For the first time they have now sent me an invoice for payment in advance for an insurance policy (provided by Qdos Vantage) to cover me from 'any professional fees incurred in respect to a possible investigation performed by HMRC'. This comes at a cost of £120.
Has anyone experience of this or opinions, please? Money well spent or a complete rip off?
