Found your site via FI link.<br /><br />I have been weighing up a top up of BLT -v- Blackrock Commodities Income trust. In the end I decided the dividend growth on the trust was too low so opted for a top up of Billiton. I have held this for several years and although the sp is volatile, the fundies still look ok and the divi record is very impressive.<br /><br />Good luck with B/rock World Mining and good luck with your blogging!<br /><br />Getting to Net Zerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649975918886866788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336434292024806907.post-54255384617849160732014-12-18T06:50:55.182+00:002014-12-18T06:50:55.182+00:00Hi weenie, yes, I noticed that you'd bought Bi...Hi weenie, yes, I noticed that you'd bought Billiton too. The crashing oil prices are a bit of a puzzle as no-one seems to be entirely sure why it's happening but slow growth is certainly part of the picture. Most commentators are saying that things will get worse before they get better so we could all be in for the long haul with this one, :-)Cerridwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09113285657493048091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336434292024806907.post-11079205945162731222014-12-18T06:45:43.328+00:002014-12-18T06:45:43.328+00:00Thanks Huw, I am looking at long term with this on...Thanks Huw, I am looking at long term with this one and it must be more likely to pull back eventually than to keep tanking (hopefully :-))Cerridwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09113285657493048091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336434292024806907.post-63140762387993456562014-12-17T22:11:38.221+00:002014-12-17T22:11:38.221+00:00Hi Cerridwen, as I posted on Huw's blog, I opt...Hi Cerridwen, as I posted on Huw's blog, I opted to purchase a few Billiton shares recently - seemed to be one that a fair few investors were going for and buying individual shares is now part of my investing strategy.<br /><br />Not looking at ITs (although I do have that single one that I 'found'!) but they may likely be something I will consider in the future. Best of luck with this investment.weeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602950445306813601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7336434292024806907.post-58415478041491863912014-12-17T19:47:25.134+00:002014-12-17T19:47:25.134+00:00Hi Cerridwen,

Te price of this IT is considerably lower than it was earlier in the year, the yield is extremely high, and although it might go down further, it's very likely to see substantial capital gains in the upcoming years. <br /><br />Good for you taking a punt on the IT. I wish you the best of luck with it!<br /><br />Huw<br /><br />Huwhttp://financiallyfreebyforty.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.com
