Stocks n Shares ISA

Saw these comments and checked my S&S ISA and pension account and both are higher now than they’ve ever been. Certainly since the orange buffoon started bombing Iran and messing around with tariffs.

People keep saying dont check it all the time. To me it's part of the fun of investing, I get a buzz out of checking the things I'm invested in several times daily.

I check all the main indexes and my coin base account every few hours and my Vanguard funds every morning.
 
I’m thinking of dumping a bit of cash into s&s from a holding company. Apart from AJ Bell are there any other platforms that allow Ltd company investments

Not necessarily, there's a reason why Bloombergs a 24hr channel following buisness news and stocks markets 24hrs a day.

My arse never dropped a week after I started investing and Russia invaded Ukraine and I was instantly around 5k down.

Kept watching the markets daily, now this week broke +25k, will be 26k judging by today's markets.

Nothing better than checking Google finance at 3pm seeing FTSE down 0.25% CAC down 0.58% DAX down 0.3

Then checking again before I go to bed and seeing a +0.4% for the FTSE CAC up .25%, Nasdaq up 1.3%, S&P up .75%

For me it's like checking the scores at 4.30pm and seeing Sunderland are losing 1-0, Mags are winning 2-1, then checking at full time and we've won 2-1 and mags have lost 4-2.

Do you have ADHD? I’m not being critical or judgemental but it sounds mentally tiring.

I tend to check my own portfolios every 1-3 months (I might be retiring early so I’m being more wary than usual). I check my son’s SIPP about twice a year.
