FWIW :- Bank of America raises Aviva price target to 590 (585) pence - 'buy' |
This is up and down like you know what. Should be 500p+ already. |
I see the provisional key dates have been realised with the finals due on Feb 27th, quite a bit earlier than usual. |
GeckotheGlorious ,Yes but you are asking the turkeys vote for Christmas , lots of them with big pay rises and secure benefits are very happy, even if starmer brings more excessive sentences for so called far right views. |
Well what a fine mess the politicians (both) and the BoE have got us into.
and there is no way out, which is without risk.
I suggest that the BoE at long last shows some balls and starts an immediate programme of reducing interest rates. In exchange for HMG agreeing reductions in Public Expenditure in real terms.
The inflation risks are obvious but there is not too much external pressure on inflation and to be honest there are not many alternatives.
HMG doesn't have much choice but to agree, as to raise further taxation will be like 'trying to catch a falling knife'
Somehow they have to get some optimism back into the UK business and financial communities...words will not suffice
Such a programme will not start a bull market in long bonds as inflation concerns will continue, but it would stabilise matters........... Equities however could get quite excited!!! |
Ok guys, let's get this back on track please. spud |
Labour are by far the most useless incompetent government I’ve seen in my lifetime!
Conservative’s were bad enough!
Same old, same old unfortunately…..they all lie their way into power and once there, fail to deliver on their promises.
They will need to raise more taxes soon to fill the new black hole created by increased borrowing costs, you couldn’t make it up! |
What was that obvious tk everyone other than those that agreed the Oct budgetFrightening how naive this government are. Will get to a stage where will be forced out sooner than people think |
Pound plunges as borrowing costs surge even higher. Thanks Labour. |
Yump - did you criticise the Liebour party when they sent over 100 MP's and activists to campaign against Trump
We all know the answer
Keep the pressure on please Elon - our government needs changing asap |
It won't change anything, but it might make you feel better :- |
This might be a Reeves decade rather than a Truss moment.
About time the media got stuck into Labour’s hypocrisy and demanded an apology. The £22bln excuse has run its course.
I voted for them as well!
O/t Starmer could have grown a pair and told Musk to look after his own country’s problems. What a weak leader he is. |
4% down… |
Bank of England to relax rules on Insurers . FT |
Yes, the 'Liz Truss' moment circled is fast being usurped! |
That bond yield story is giving all the usual financials the same share price falls.
"They" still like to talk about "Liz Truss moment" - we are getting worse but not the same bias from the media. |
On another board someone just said
"Jitters about anything bond yield related is hardly a UK specific problem"
However -
Bloomberg just told us that US bond yields highest for 1 year
UK bond yields depending on the 10 year or 30 years - the highest since 2008 (16 years +)
or since 1998 (26 years +)
That IS a UK specific problem |
Loads of reit’s and income stocks just following gilts |
