Should be a nice day tomorrow barring uncertainties

[jugears] 13/3/2023 17:18

What a farce, lol

[eurofox] 13/3/2023 17:01

could you arrange that so sub 400 is achieved on 6th April?

[mountpleasant] 13/3/2023 16:49

Im cautiously pessimistic, the glass is half smashed.
Thinking of selling, and buy back after XD.. hopefully below 400.

Not a bad day at all, gilts balancing out equities

[whatsup32] 13/3/2023 16:35

Hyper is 50% increase in a month. It’s often misinterpreted

[ianood] 13/3/2023 16:33

1robbob I too was around in the seventies however, I never saw hyper inflation - about 17% was the highest!

[milliecusto] 13/3/2023 16:26

Too soon to buy, this has just started

[pooroldboy55] 13/3/2023 16:09

Only follows it down

[watfordhornet] 13/3/2023 16:06

The UK market does not seem to want to follow the DOW

[engelbert1969] 13/3/2023 16:03

No spare cash or I'd be in at this level :(

[whatsup32] 13/3/2023 15:24

Both Dow and Naz up . Hope we've seen bottom .

For today at least

[p0pper] 13/3/2023 15:21

AV. and LGEN seem to be the hardest hit

[1robbob] 13/3/2023 15:01

Share Price 427p: Dividend 20.7p = xd price 406.3p
= 4.8% return on the Final alone
= 7.6% historic yield
= 8.2% prospective yield (33.3p div)

cyberian
Correct

[cyberian] 13/3/2023 14:42

Hope that I am correct that Divi is XD on 30/3 for holders registered on 31/3, and payment date 18/5?

[smurfy2001] 13/3/2023 14:38

Markets are irrational right now, my whole portfolio getting hit not just financials.

[cyberian] 13/3/2023 14:38

eurofox...joined you after hesitating but with Dividend to come soon and Buy-Back program I felt bold enough to follow....hope we both and perhaps others have made the right decision?

[tourist2020] 13/3/2023 14:17

Will be interesting to see how heavily Citigroup buy back shares today.

[eurofox] 13/3/2023 13:45

Well this is certainly a good clean out of weak holders - added at 427, couldn't resist

[eurofox] 13/3/2023 13:17

Could be an ISA dream if this keeps up until 6th April

[cyberian] 13/3/2023 13:04

Wall Street futures went from 380Plus last night to almost the same on the negative side right now. The FED and others need to steady the market with some supportive comments asap. Personally holding off any buying until clear signs of greater stability in the market. It could be a good opportunity for selective buying and I guess Citi are hoovering-up some buy-backs towards the £300 million committed to their program...Fridays purchases were just 2.39% of the target.

The FED will almost certainly hold back on any interest rate increase at their next meeting according to Goldman Sachs, and I agree. However, will the market take that as a positive or a short term panic.....I personally think the former as Inflation will abate to a more acceptable level, but we will need to adapt to rates above 2%, maybe 4/5% in future. The US housing market is yet to see a marked downturn in activity and that will help turn present rates down.,hopefully. .

Biggest portfolio holdings in 5, 6, 8 and 10 year maturity gilts - can't believe how much the price has moved up in a day. Bound to fall back some, but don't care because purchased them in late October last year at the peak (bottom?) of the Truss crisis.

>Hyper inflation and 50% unemployment, this combination of a dead economy and high >inflation, it happened here in the 1970's.

Some of us were in the Market in the 1970 !!! and still remember the lessons learned.

QE is a tool for Central Banks
and a drug for Politicians
...so much for an independent BoE !!!
