Jarvis - 2005

I see!! again, thank you. I take back what I said about not being stupid. I suppose what I mean is that it looked to me as if there were more "buys" than "sells" but of course all that happens is the price moves in line with the demand (or not, as the case may be). What can I say? except thank you for sharing your knowledge at this late hour.

I notice from your profile that you like LLOY and SCTN, which is comforting as I also have these. I reduced my holding in Lloyds because i worried about the P/E ratio (put the profit into JRVS!). I sold Barclays because the yield was so relatively poor, but they've jumped up 20p since so it shows what I know. I did buy United Utilities when they were at 560p (yield about 8%) and am quite pleased with their performance. As you can appreciate from this, Jarvis is my mad flutter.
