QE or Quantitative easing is just a fancy bankers term used to disguise something that is distasteful to many people, mainly anyone who saves or is earning a wage or is on a fixed income, and it is a very basic unoriginal idea, that used to be called DEVALUATION,

The market is very much manipulated and manoeuvred. High Frequency Trading makes a mockery of the market. The only thing that appears to count is volatility by one means or another.

Where and when it ends I know not but one thing we can count on is that there will be tears and not of joy.

Yes but when ! every man/woman and his/her dog/cat have been buying it for so long now. I have never known a market like this.

Fundamentals are completely disregarded, countries going bankrupt, whole swathes of the world in trouble and yet all is ignored in this debt ridden market.

I used to think I knew stuff, now I know I know nothing !

"the way yellen is talking, that could be another 12 months away yet and maybe further. Central banker madness..."
===============================================================================

I do not disagree but just the thought of it is staggering. Where would the DOW rise to if QE continued at current level for a year!

When every man/woman and his/her dog/cat have bought into it the smart money quietly withdraws. We've seen it before and we'll see it again.

But what happens when taper does occur. The market has become a QE Junkie. At the least mention of taper it throws a wobbly. The longer QE continues the higher the market rises.

The yield on 10 Year Treasury Notes is increasing, interest rates will follow.

Yes I know that is the thinking but considering how much QE has been pumped into the syatem and the progress made how much more is required.

New 'dealer' Yellen appears to be more QE oriented than Bernanke but time will tell.

bp is looking increasingly grim. Pointless hanging on in here with SO many other stocks taking off on AIM and money being made hand over fist.

FML looks about to take off...overdue financial & op update due, & ex CEO forecasting mkt cap to increase by factor of 8 by end of next year!

Buy FML ..update any day...

when the taper occurs, we drop because the iv line has been withdrawn. But if the medics do it right, the patient is well enough by then to get up and leave the hospital.
Stock picking hats on, boys!

hopefully thats some time away, Yellen wants to be loved and she has all but stated "I'm the female version of helicopter Ben" "loads more free money to come"

We've had enough of 'slowly, slowly'. All we've caught is fines and payouts.

We want the share price to SOAR by fair means or foul before the dreaded 'taper' comes to pass and back down we go.

Bp is quietly establishing support at 480p,...it did have a proper run up to here, and that's quite a trick for such a lumbering beast, so a breather is necessary.
It needs to catch its breath, then we shall see if it wants to push on to the mystic land of £5+.....remember those golden days, my friends....

[redips2] 13/11/2013 08:30

just scanning the later posts a little too quickly, and read the words 'balls' and 'flesh eating'-----

[robertfaulkner] 12/11/2013 08:18

mitchy, you can't watch every bit of info all the time, especially if you have a few shares on the go.

I have a sellotaped notice on my lap top "check ex div before deal" but I still forget

[bracke] 11/11/2013 17:30

It has gone very quiet on this thread

SP needs to break and hold above 482.

I trust the US will be taking appropriate action against the japanese for polluting the ocean with radioactive material.

[malcontent] 06/11/2013 14:27

AHH sorry. I goofed too, forgot the divi. You see, I was expecting a retrace, so I saw what I expected to see. Noob error.

[mitchy] 06/11/2013 14:03

I sold this morning but have corrected mistake and got back in at 484. Rooky mistake..I've only been investing for over 25 years!

[freedom97] 06/11/2013 10:50

mitchy - if you sold before today then why did you post this on your thread:


mitchy 6 Nov'13 - 07:58 - 11 of 13

The share price on BP simply cant go down with all the share buy backs and it's just a question of when it
Will pop £5.
No ramp intended..just my opinion


mitchy 6 Nov'13 - 09:32 - 83775 of 83776

Damn..if I'd known it was ex divi day today I wouldn't have sold. Thought it was the start of a retrace due to falling oil prices..my bad!
