thanks so much @SaurusDNA

"GLODIV has been doing really well lately and is likely to continue. Not so great in a TFIA though as the unpleasantly high foreign withholding tax on dividends negates a large chunk of the tax benefits though, but it still does have excellent capital gains, so maybe still even worth having in a TFIA." are the dividends taxed in a tax free savings account? foreign and local?

Bwahahahahahaha

I'm also looking at ASHGEQ, but the volumes are so low, which is discouraging me

yes, and judging by the present US markets, we will probably be down again tomorrow Can you maybe post the link of that screenshot you posted?

NPN crashed? NPN tracks tencent and the ZAR strengthened

I'm with ABSA Private bank and my cheque account and transactions are free as I have an investment with ABSA - my credit card costs me R75 per month though, so total banking costs = R75/mnth

ALVIVA JSE:AVV previously named Pinnacle (PNC)

I just checked and both the apps that I'm using (post #473) can handle fractional shares - you simply tell it you bought 12.5 shares for instance

just installed investing.com and loaded my portfolio.... You can change the currency in the top right corner or holding the menu key down I have not been able to figure out how to set low and high alarms for my shares It looks like they don't report the 'closing prices' but rather the last price at end of day auction - look at SNH - they say last price R69.16, whilst the JSE/Google reports R70.30 I have also not figured out how to sort the portfolio, as I like to have it sorted from largest holdings to smallest

thanks Spreadsheet Ranger ! So it has alarms, nice! I'm gonna give it a try

I use two, because I have not found a single app that can show me my whole portfolios daily move AND has low and high alarms for share prices 1) My stocks portfolio app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.peeksoft.stocks&hl=en It shows my portfolio value and changes during the day nicely 2) Stocks - Realtime Stock Quotes app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.stocks&hl=en It has alarms and displays the individual share prices and changes nicely, but for some reason does not show the value of my total portfolio They are both free and supported by adverts, which are not annoying - I think they can both be purchased as well for advert free use

I wish we could somehow get google to either drop the "xxx.00" or divide the prices they get from the JSE by 100 - It's fnucking annoying and stuffs up how the android app works that I use to track my portfolio, apart from all other countries working correctly, just the JSE cr@p is not in ZAR but in ZAC

not to be difficult, but if ABSA told me I can only buy so many of any specific company, I'd be *bad word* please do not do thated off

Did not even see your in here! Hello Yea I wonder how they work behind the scenes, do they buy shares upfront or something? Hi yes, why would they treat this share differently? Why would they try and 'nanny' their customers, especially when it does not look like their reason is valid? WEIRD!?

I'm not sure why EE calls a share that has traded 33.5 million shares in 4 hours not liquid?

nah, I doubt it - the volatility is probably just caused by the low volumes
