$USD begins to strengthen + my early progress report on hot share tips
My portfolios went down by 1-2% over the last few days despite the S&P 500 being at an all-time high. The dip was due to the weakening $USD. However, today (Thursday 18th Sept.) it seems to be gaining strength and both T212 portfolios have bounced back up again.
The Fx change however, did mean that I could buy more with my £GBP on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Investing in Nuclear SMRs - get in now before it is too late!
Introduction
The world needs green electricity - especially electricity that does not depend on the weather (i.e. neither wind nor solar). Unlike the USA, who are drilling for oil and gas with no regard for global warming, the UK have adopted a Net Zero policy.
In November 2024, the UK and 30 other countries signed a global pledge to triple their nuclear capacity by 2050.

Is Defense a good area for investment just now?
Oana Lungescu, a fellow at the Royal United Services Institute think tank and a former NATO spokesperson, said NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte "has said that NATO needs a five-fold increase in air and missile defense capabilities, so that’s an urgent priority. It’s also important that all NATO countries clarify their national legislation about downing aircraft entering their airspace."
Defense stocks and shares had increased in price over the last 8 months due to the Ukraine/Russian war, but this latest incident has shown that more spending on defense (from drones) is immediately required.

Trendy shares (good performers but volatile!)
Scorchio!
I list below some shares and ETFs that have been appearing a lot in many YouTube investor videos.
Most have shown amazing gains so far, but of course they could descend into the depths of Hades at any moment, so beware! Many are purely sentiment driven.
The ones listed below are all ones I hold and most (but not all) are showing me a nice gain so far.
Please do your own research on them and if you decide to buy any, please buy at a good price and remember to take profits before they collapse.
The market at the moment seems to be high, so maybe wait a while?
I will list each one with the 3 month and 1 year performance percentages in parentheses.

UK Stock up 16% this last week - Manolete partners (MANO)
Manolete Partners are an insolvency litigation financing company who were listed on the AIM market in 2008 and has risen 38% in the last month and 16% in the last week. Manolete work for, and alongside, HMRC, the Insolvency Service, the British Business Bank and the many hundreds of outstanding private sector insolvency practitioners and insolvency and restructuring lawyers.
The recent share price increase is presumably due to recent cases which they have on-boarded and funded. Their 2024 net profit was 3%.

More risky share tips!
Last week I bought a few 'risky' shares/ETFs inside my ISA. Yesterday the whole market was down, but when the UK market opened this morning, it was looking better.
First, I have bought £1000 of the NASDAQ 100 x3 long QQQ3 this morning as I notice that EQGB, XLKQ and IITU are all up this morning (probably due to Alphabet/Google).
Then I checked on my recent smaller mining holdings which are also up today:
