14 day RSI up at 70.....looking overbought ?

[palwing32] 10/5/2024 08:14

Agreed...the MM's should make a killing today. Wouldn't want to be out over the weekend, etc. We have seen and heeard it soooo many times. It would be nice to get some sort of return one day before I die though...I live in dope. Pun intended.Apologies off topic to all.. that's the end of that. Back to good old AHT.

palwing32 - Re PET , with "Terry" repeating full on ramp mode with all the same maps and references etc as used for decades ... yes rinse and repeat , they have another narrative event supposedly happening this weekend so the gamblers are laying their bets on Leicester to win the premier league.... This Season ...again.

Some will have cashed their chips as the share price has risen but likely the naive will be left holding the hand grenade.

Good day disc0

7 no cut- 2 cut. One more voted for cut.

Being fair to Mr Bailey if it's 7:2 against a cut not much he can do.

You can bet Mr Sunak will be dropping hints.

Will it be 2 or 3 cuts by November?

[disc0dave46] 09/5/2024 13:19

Rates held, no great surprise, personally I think he's missed the opportunity to show his metal, not just the FED follower but also to show on a global front that the UK is on the up and won't be a laggard from an investment perspective. At least one other member voted to cut.Oh well :)

[disc0dave46] 09/5/2024 11:36

Thanks for that info.Although I think Mr b (not our guru Mr b but the incompetent BoE Mr b) should cut, I doubt he has the balls, but will be interesting to see how many voted for a cut, last time only one did.

Interesting that Ashtead was tipped on CNBC Half time report yesterday.

Good day Thompsonnic

Good idea. She'a probably a lot nastier.

And maybe a carrot to go with the stick in the form of a Peerage.

Call in the heavy mob.....Boris

Don't you mean Penny Mordaunt.

Good day disc0

Alternatively Mr Sunak may be inclined to put him in a headlock to 'encourage' him to make a cut or two prior to the election. If Sunak doesn't fancy doing the job himself he could call in the heavy mob.....Boris!

Mr b"Mr Bailey go it alone with a rate cut, where do you get such outlandish thoughts!"lolYou never know, miracles do happen, and his week of reflection (post the FED decision) whilst relaxing in a Bognor Regis B&B, may inspire him to take the opportunity to show Mr King and his critics that he can actually make a decision despite his forecasting model being a pile of Pooh!.....his moment of glory awaits!.

Mr Bailey go it alone with a rate cut, where do you get such outlandish thoughts!

[disc0dave46] 03/5/2024 13:16

Good afternoon Mr b"Remember a broken clock is correct twice a day"That was my point really and not worthy of posting such nonsense where such a guru as yourself resides :)As for Mr P, no comment!, NFP in a few minutes time so let's see if our cousins panic, ignore, or get too excitable. Forecast I believe is 243k.Be interesting to see if our Mr Bailey actually does something next week he's not done so far - make a decision ignoring what Mr P has done this week and apply some common sense and cut, but somehow I very much doubt it!.

Good day disco

"trt’s predictions are like a broken record, or is it broken clock!. Either way a wind up."
======================================================================================

Remember a broken clock is correct twice a day.

In the meantime I thought Mr Powell avoided 'rocking the boat'.

I have come to the conclusion the aim is to keep 'things steady' and if possible at least one rate reduction just before the November Election. If the pressure is for a rate increase hold it off until after the election if at all possible.

[casket1] 03/5/2024 09:31

More like an earthenware pot full of excrement

[disc0dave46] 02/5/2024 20:05

Shouldn't bother Mr b tbh, trt's predictions are like a broken record, or is it broken clock!. Either way a wind up.

[bracke] 02/5/2024 16:53

That's more like the trt we have come to know.

[trt] 02/5/2024 15:17

If £55 doesn't hold we could easily see £50.

[bracke] 01/5/2024 18:28

Good day disc0

You have been conspicuous by your absence. I presume you have been away on one of your cruises.

As for trt's £55 I am surprised at his restraint. I would have expected £50. On this occasion he could be in 'with a shout'. £55 is only a 38.2% retrace from the recent high to the last major low.

I suppose it depends how hawkish Mr Powell wants to be. I doubt he wants to overly frighten the market bearing in mind the November election so no rate reduction but no talk of only 1 or 2 cuts. Steady as she goes and more of the 'be guided by the data'.

[disc0dave46] 01/5/2024 18:21

Thanks Mr b for your insight, as ever.Will say it again - Mr P is a numpty, the FED have poured petrol on inflation and what a surprise wages have gone up!, WTF did they expect?. Rant over.

[disc0dave46] 01/5/2024 18:14

Pmsl....dont think there's a two digit number he hasn't called......and from memory it never comes to fruition. A good luck mascot.

[palwing32] 01/5/2024 17:08

trt says lower...again. lol

[thompsonnic] 01/5/2024 15:26

Bracke Cheers for the info so it looks like next stop 5558.
