Not always windy in autumn / winter. A misconception.


There are plenty of studies that show wind is extremely predictable, both at the global and UK level, with standard deviation typically less than 3%.

https://bureautechnicals...ction-very-predictable/
https://www.statista.com...-the-united-kingdom-uk/
https://www.thecrownesta...re-wind-variability.pdf

To demonstrate my conviction in this fact, I have large amounts of my personal wealth invested in the belief that the wind will indeed blow during the Autumn/Winter period. If you believe otherwise, maybe you have a short position in UKW?

Sold 40% of my ULVR holding on the back of todays good news and will go back in at 4100p in the future if it ever drops.

Added to LGEN, INPP, and Vanguard Sterling MMF in the meantime to incrase dividend yield on that cash. Both shares are looking good value with solid dividends.

When the FSF transaction goes through in Q3 weighing up BRWM which is looking at a reasonable price (with some discount still and good yield), a bit more INPP w, and some JEGI as I am light in EU still.

Over the next few months will also be looking to rotate some profit out of SSE when it hits 1900p if there are suitable alternatives to migrate the cash into.

Overall goals are still for a mix of roughly 25% global equity, 25% EU and UK equities, 25% energy/utilities, 25% infrastructure and REITS so everything heading in that direction.

I have never personally short traded anything. No my style of investing.

The narrative has been the public domain recently. When company's have made their presentatations and published annual accounts etc.

Switch in progress… 50k of mmfs into VGVA, Global Bond Index, and LS60. All Vanguard. Various portfolios. Still hold some mmfs. Part of me was thinking stick it all in VWRL and ‘buy the dip’ but *fingers crossed* and *touching wood* bonds are due a rebound…

Thinking of adding some PSH after this fall which looks a tad overdone ,I think UMG will do well with the passage of time .
Transferred a sizable smaller pension to my AJ Bell SIPP mostly to simplify things on my demise ,anyone think that PSH will not recover from this fall?

It's down in the past few days so a little opportunity has presented itself to add something I was going to buy anyway as I increase the proportion of gold in my pf. Besides which, I don't have a crystal ball.
