2025 dividends to date £10,879.00

Cash for re-investment £11,023, 10k to be re-invested in a Trust with a near xd date and 1k into FSFL

The Snowball booked a profit of £907.80 with TRIG.

The Snowball only owned the share for one week, sometimes it’s better to be lucky than clever. The intention is to use ‘part’ of the windfall to do some dividend washing, where you buy a share before the xd date and sell either on the day or later, to provide contingency income for 2026, just in case any dividends are cut.

So the Snowball has sold LAND, earning a dividend of £307.00 paid in January, for a loss of £13.00. If you get the timing right, sometimes it can also print a tiny profit.

There are dividends to be received tomorrow of £641.00, 1k to be re-invested in FSFL, maybe.

Among those set to exit the FTSE 250 is Pinewood Technologies Group PLC, rounding off a short stint in the mid-cap index. The provider of software to the automotive retailing sector replaced Warehouse REIT in the index after the logistics warehouses investor was acquired by Blackstone Inc.

My 2 favourite growth stocks just plunged 25% in a month – time to consider buying more?

Harvey Jones made a big bet on these 2 FTSE 100 growth stocks, but the last month has been brutal. So does he sell, hold or steel himself to buy more?

My top two growth stocks have just taken a beating, and I won’t deny it hurts. Both plunged 25% in the last month and are the biggest fallers on the FTSE 100 over that short period. So what do I do?

The first is the private equity and infrastructure specialist 3i Group (LSE: III). Until recently, it was one of my standout investments, more than doubling my money in the two-and-a-bit years after I added it to my SIPP.

Should you buy 3i Group plc shares today?

3i Group shares slump

Since 1945, 3i has built a strong track record of buying underperforming companies, scrubbing them up and selling at a profit. It worked wonders for decades. The shares are still up 200% over five years, but now they’re down 11% over 12 months. Personally, I’m still up 48%, but that’s less than it was.

I was starting to feel uneasy about 3i. Much of the excitement came from one stunningly successful holding, European retailer Action. It’s opened thousands of stores across the continent and has a new growth market in Switzerland, but now accounts for almost three-quarters of 3i’s total assets. That is a lot of concentration risk.

On 13 October the group warned sales growth at Action may fall short of forecasts due to a slowdown in France. The rest of the business is trading well but that was all it took to spark a heavy sell-off.

I have no plans to sell 3i Group. I buy shares with a long-term view and over that time frame, it remains attractive. In fact, I topped up my position last week, and two senior directors did the same, investing far bigger sums than me. I’m now heavily exposed by my modest standards, so I’ll stop here. Action’s monster growth has to slow at some point and the group needs to find new opportunities. Yet I still think it’s worth considering for long-sighted investors.

JD Sports has tripped up

My second falling favourite was struggling rather than thriving when I bought it in January 2024. JD Sports Fashion (LSE: JD.) looked absurdly cheap with a price-to-earnings ratio of around 7.5, and I expected to benefit from a robut share price recovery once trading improved.

The rebound hasn’t come yet. Consumers are still under severe strain across the UK, Europe and the US. On 20 November the board issued another profit warning, blaming rising unemployment and softer spending. Should I take advantage and buy more?

I’ve already averaged down on three occasions since my original purchase, but now I’m wary. JD Sports’ core market is younger people, which spells trouble as youth unemployment climbs. Rapid advances in artificial intelligence may hurt their long-term job prospects and squeeze their spending power harder.

The JD Sports share price is even cheaper now. The P/E stands at 5.95 but a strong Christmas sales period could lift the mood. Contrarian investors may still consider the stock but I’ve decided to hold my position and look elsewhere for recovery plays.

Both growth stocks face different challenges but remain central to my long-term plan. I believe the 3i dip is a great long-term buying opportunity for a share that had outrun itself, which is why I dived in. JD Sports should recover one day but for now I’m sticking rather than twisting.

3i : very dangerous to buy Trusts that trade at a big premium.

Summary

• Stocks surged broadly, led by tech, as nine of eleven S&P 500 sectors rose and the Nasdaq posted its best day since May.
• Bitcoin’s rally signaled speculative excess has been reduced, setting the stage for a potential year-end stock market rally.
• Fed officials’ dovish comments increased expectations for a December rate cut, now seen as 85% likely, supporting further market gains.
• Despite labor market concerns, strong consumer spending and falling inflation expectations point to a soft economic landing and renewed growth in 2026.

Investors returned in force yesterday to buy stocks, led by the beaten up technology sector, but it wasn’t just tech, as nine out of 11 sectors that constitute the S&P 500 index rose. The Nasdaq Composite had its best day since May. It is no coincidence that Bitcoin rallied off its recent low of approximately $80,000 to surpass $88,000, prior to the burst in stock prices, along with the rest of the cryptocurrency space. That tells me that we have wrung out a lot of the speculative excess in this market, which sets the stage for the year-end rally.

The selling in crypto land exacerbated the selling in magnificent ones, which collectively soared 3.2% yesterday, led by Alphabet. I am less sanguine about a near-term recovery in these seven names to new all-time highs as I am expecting a broadening of the participation we have seen since the April lows. I think this will be instigated by productivity increases for the 493 companies in the S&P 500, which are just starting to realize the benefits from AI. That should override valuation concerns for the broad market, as higher profit margins support higher valuations for the names left behind in this bull market. This will be the story of 2026 that leads to the next leg up.

Friday’s rally was instigated by comments from New York Fed President John Williams who sees a rate cut in December as more likely than not. We had further confirmation that another rate cut is coming yesterday from San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly, who indicated that labor market weakness is a higher priority than the rate of inflation right now. Then Boston Fed Governor Christopher Wall repeated that he would like to see the rate lowered at the December 10 meeting. The probability for a rate cut has now risen to 85%.

There are increasing concerns about the weak labor market, which is understandable. This is a risk that should not be ignored. But most investors don’t recognize that the number of jobs created does not go into the calculation for the rate of economic growth, nor is it the primary driving force behind consumer spending, which is the most important input to growth. We will finally have the retail sales number for September this morning, and I suspect it will show that consumers are still spending at a healthy clip, which makes me less concerned about the labor market. Spending is the primary driver of job creation.

Furthermore, inflation expectations in the marketplace have collapsed from the tariff-tantrum days, which is probably why a growing number of Fed officials are more focused on stimulating growth in 2026 with lower short-term interest rates. This is what a soft landing looks like, which most investors have never seen before unless they were involved in the markets in the mid-1990s. This landing has not been smooth, as the economy bounced off the runway earlier this year in April when the Consumer Price Index (CPI) touched 2.3%. I expect we will take another shot at that landing next year, but this time it will be a successful one.
