GerryL,

Not sure if tomorrows opening price has been published yet!

Only Purple knows for sure.

[gerryl] 10/5/2010 15:09

What price is it going to open at tommorow???

[manuel labour] 10/5/2010 15:08

No,

I believe German internal political issues will spread to France and undermine and slow down the implementation of collective European fiscal policy. I think this will cause issues in the Iberian peninsula which will drag down all European banks including Barc. Barc have a £40 billion exposure there.

Couple this with an untried political alliance in the UK and you have very poor sentiment.


LOOOOL.

Manuel Labour, do you really believe Greece (0.5% GDP) will make the whole Europe collapse?

looooooooool

[manuel labour] 10/5/2010 14:48

Out at 323 average.

Back in on open tomorrow and ride the Con Lib Coalition wave for another 5%.

Then out until Europe collapses.

Then pile in for a recovery beginning end of August.


You know it makes sense.

Hi Mike nice to see you´re still around, how´s luvmedo ?

[pennstreet] 10/5/2010 14:43

I'm with you BobP - i got out at 322 first thing.

[bobp] 10/5/2010 14:28

G2, I'm out of barc , sold at 319 first thing, too early I suppose but was looking for a pullback that didn't come.

Had a buy order at 299 put on but have now revised that to 304 in anticipation of a sell off soon, maybe wrong, but it would be a fair price to jump back in if I can get it. I wouldn't feel comfortable holding at these levels, its not the price its the %age rise thats put me off for the day.

FYI

While we did not forecast the recent 10% drop in global stocks prices, we do
think the reaction to recent events in sovereign debt markets has been overdone.
The nature of the current "crisis" is very different from the 2007/08 and early
2009 period.

Specifically, "fundamentals" remain healthy. Earnings and revenues continue to
surprise on the upside, with both measures accelerating in the Q1 reports.

Valuations are low in our opinion. Price to book multiples remain outside the
bottom of their 22-year range, while current and prospective profitability is
within it.

Corporate debt yields are declining, with US BAA yields at their lowest levels
since 2005. Prices of so called "toxic" assets have generally not succumbed to
the same extend as equities.

While some measures of sentiment have been indicative of high levels of
bullishness, heavy put buying and high implied volatility suggest that investors
have rapidly shifted to extreme risk aversion.

Given the still healthy fundamentals and the high levels of risk aversion in the
market, we view this latest move lower as a buying opportunity.

[harrodsfree] 10/5/2010 13:27

cat100. What planet are you on? Massive overselling last week due to Greek concerns. Now stable. We'll retain these gains and make more in the rest of the week.

[wilba] 10/5/2010 13:26

[cat100] 10/5/2010 13:22
