Buying shares

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

Dangee is not very good with graphs, JohnD, you'll have bamboozled him now.

 

[JohnD]

I’m 10000 down.

My condolences.

My condolences.

Fortunately, it was his play account.

So to be clear, I didn’t tell bodd what my choice was then.
I’ll take that as an apology

You'll need to improve your discussion technique beyond the "I'm right and you're wrong" stage.

But considering you claim Brexit is going terribly, all you’ve shown is that our stocks have gone up more than the European.
Has the pound plummeted since 1st Jan 2021?

I had intended to join a serious adult thread.

What a pity dangee has other ideas.

Who's a decent easy to use investment company I can buy shares with.

I'm no expert so would only want to invest small and spread across many companies.

I was doing this before I moved to Australia and did ok ish but forgot who the company was I dealt with.

I use Hargreaves Lansdown. Easy to set up an online account to buy/sell, check your portfolio etc. I've only ever dabbled with relatively small amounts, used to mainly go for oil companies but loved anything high risk, made some good gains, and some shocking losses, I did it mainly for the buzz, I like a flutter.

Only advice I'll offer is never invest more than you can afford to lose.
