Hi All,
A newbie here with a lot of learning to do, so far 2 months of reading + starting to create my own fantasy portfolio and some silly wild punts (first time investor madness!) Small starting stack in an ISA but will be increasing as my knowledge and confidence increases. (Maybe even share the experience as I move forward)
So here's the thing - information and news sites needed. I have been randomly diving into sites below and scanning random sites on google.
ADVNF - (not a paid subscriber yet)
iii.com
HL
BBC and various news and newspaper sites...
Stockopedia
I feel that this is only the tip of the iceburg and would be delighted if other can share where they read and what they read. Not after tipping sites but news and information to learn more about investing.
Many thanks H
You've missed the most critical newsflow - Regulatory News Service (RNS) announcements are the prescribed regulatory mechanism which ensures all price sensitive info is made available to the markets simultaneously. Companies are obliged to issue RNSs through a well established process rather than dribble news out in an arbitrary fashion.
There are several websites that provide access to RNSs. I use www.investegate.com which is free.
First investment related thing I do every day is check Investegate just after 7am when the majority of news comes through. I've set the search parameters to show everything for the current day and I scan through it all. I find that much more interesting than restricting the news to just the companies on a watchlist. But you can do that if it works for you.
