Despite the dividend reinvestment, and the significant SP gains GBG, the SIPP is effectively treading water this month. We could be entering a period of consolidation over the summer months, during which I will be seeking to accumulate some cash (from sales of companies that may have hit a plateau) and from SIPP contributions.
Sage (SGE) has been disappointing this year, and I'm not sure that there is possibility for the SP to recover this year, so I am considering reducing my position.
The holding in BAE Systems (BA.) is looking out of step with my portfolio.  Although a strong company, and with a good order-book and valuable dividend, the potential for an uplift of the SP isn't obvious as the glut of defence orders from the Trump administration in the USA hasn't happened.
Recent purchase XL Media (XLM) suffered a SP setback with the issue of a profit warning, but I think the correction was significantly overdone.  As such, I have increased my holding and await the recovery, but recent downward moves in the SP suggest that this company is in trouble.
If I follow my own rule to sell-off significant losers, then I should bin XLM, but my exposure is only £3000 so - for now - I am putting a sale on-hold.
