    I suppose what your plans are for shares you get.

    Are you in for a quick couple of quid or the long haul ?

    with all the talk of an instant 20-30% increase in the first week - it would be very tempting to not sell. Where else can you make that money in such a short period of time ?

          So 33% of my £5k, will keep an eye on the price and see if I can top up the allocation with the remaining money before the price gets too high (I have a hard limit which I won't go over) other wise I have other shares in my watchlist that I will invest in instead.

                      It will get a boost from tracker funds once it hits the FTSE in December. There's also a guaranteed dividend next summer. For the amounts involved, I'll probably hang on to my share of 5k for the medium-term, perhaps the full year.
