A secondary IPO for International personal finance 12% 2017 bonds.
Company doing well. Paid previous bonds during COVID. I bought last year so not buying anymore.
£2,000 minimum purchase. Available via primarybid app and normal brockers. Need an account with someone like Hargreaves Lansdowne who can also buy them for you. No costs if buying at IPO.
12% equals sub prime. i think the risk as measured by the return, is over stated. Obviously my opinion and not suggestion to buy.
Was also looking at this.
12% , not too shabby a return
But the company is same category as pay day lenders
I still remember Wonga 
Good point.
Well worth remembering.
They are all over Europe specifically Eastern Europe.
Doing particularly well in Mexico.
IE not a specifically uk company.
Fact. although we would like to think otherwise, facts are facts (based on the past) sub prime always turn out to be lower risk simply because they get bugger all to begin with.
While prime are assumed to be low risk they are in fact indebit up to there eyeballs!!
Anyone got app problems today? All my stocks are showing 0 data for today’s prices and the app was just updated I went off it came on then the all world showed but the rest stayed the same.?

I received an update to the app today, maybe that will fix the issue for you.
That’s the update I updated before I posted lol and I never opened the app again today was planning some buys but didn’t bother with half the stocks saying random stuff
Maybe a silly question but here I go. With market cap do I always have to go find the outstanding shares to just to a quick calculation to see how much just got wiped off a stock.
Or can I say if the market cap is worth 6 billion currently and the share price just dropped 4% out of nowhere, could I say 240 million just got wiped off that company?
I imagine both ways would work…but how up to date the market cap info is would be questionable if you wanted an exact amount.
Why you would, I have no idea

- re estart your phone
If still same
- go into apps and clear Cache on FT app
One of them should do it…i know you already updated the app
Only other thing would be if you have an old software version on your phone…so update the software on your mobile device too. (Ie update Android or IOS for Apple).
Is your phone very old maybe?
Let me know

I just replied to celia on the other thread and said the same I think I need to start fault finding and going through the usual steps I’ll let you know how it goes.
Thanks
@Bob1 kinda nuts after the restart I looked at berkshire it had a sharp dip and then almost a straight line but little wiggles up and down for today’s range.
So I went and cleared the cache files of both and now it’s showing completly doff graphs lol hopefully the right one. My phones near dead I heavy used it before work this morning an unusual morning for me so I’ll have a check when I’m home after work.

" A team from the Chinese solar technology firm Longi set a new world record of 33.9 per cent for a silicon-perovskite tandem solar cell, breaking the previous record set in May this year by King Abdullah University of Science & Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia."
“The theoretical efficiency limit of silicon-perovskite tandem solar cells is 43 per cent, however this level is unlikely to ever be realised on a commercial scale.”
"According to the researchers, the next-generation panels will be 50 per cent cheaper and 50 per cent more efficient than traditional silicon cells, however the efficiency rates will still be a long way off the levels achieved in the lab
UK startup Oxford PV, which is a spin-out from the University of Oxford, is already in the process of commercialising the technology, with hopes of beginning full-scale production at a German facility later this year."
Do you know what really annoys me about the UK is the fact that if you’re a good saver you get punished for it. So if I save and don’t really live my life because I’m trying to achieve a goal and something happens to me I can’t go claim benifits.
If person B earns more than me but spends it all on cars etc holidays and all that so that they don’t have a penny spare their entitled to full benifits even though they have more than me and have lived better than me…
Cool system bro. Then when you go to claim benifits they try preach to you that they don’t want you on benifits and want you to work.
So if you have any sort of illnesses which cause you to be on and off work throughout the years good luck trying to live. The only way to play that system is to leave yourself broke so that you will always be entitled to benifits when things go wrong with you or else you will just be in a perma loop of shit.
