[imastu pidgitaswell] 24/8/2020 09:34

So....

Is that the higher low alluded to earlier?

Too soon to say I guess. Always obvious in hindsight - not obvious right now.

Wrong thread Boris?

[borisjohnsonshair] 20/8/2020 14:45

Yep you can't read or process. You fell out the idiot tree and hit every branch on the way down!!! You can't understand anything. OMG moron extreme.

[milliethedog] 20/8/2020 11:08

I would certainly agree with all that imastu....well put
Food for thought

The thing is, all of those businesses - and many others including retailers - have (or had) large profits, dividends, business etc, but they also have large cost bases, which are difficult to manage when revenue declines, structurally - as the retailers and especially airlines are showing. Valuations are showing that.

The dotcom bubble was envisaging a future online only, which is why they attracted such silly valuations. The reality was a little different, with a mixed economy - but not completely.

This pandemic is moving back towards the online-only end of the spectrum, and the share prices of the likes of ZOOM reflect that (and in the other direction the share prices of all of those regular companies). The challenge is to work out, within that broad strategic movement, which individual shares movements are 'right' and which ones are 'wrong'. There are quite a few 'wrong' ones where the market has just over-simplified and either overvalued some of the techies and undervalued some of the older ones.

Since we're discussing Glen (which i have traded very profitably also imastu)
Can i post this, which i put on BT board too, re Zoom....
Comments appreciated......

Do any of you realise how crazy the market has become?
No? I'll tell you...
The Market Cap of Zoom (video conferencing) is $77 Billion (that's only a mere £69bn)
The total combined valuations of....
BT £10.5bn
Av £11.3bn
Lgen £13.5bn
Imb £12.4bn
Iag £4.0bn
Sse £13.5bn

Total £65bn...so throw in a few more airlines & maybe they will all together be worth as much as Zoom...
Come on folks....sound familiar? Do any of you remember the DotCom 'bubble'?

I've had Glencore, buying and selling it many times, since June. Fantastic trading share, and very lucrative (no stamp duty).

None of the rest - apart from this, which is a work in progress (having been started along the lines of GLEN, buying and selling it many times over and over). One of those short term trades turned long term holds :-)

fwiw - PSN would have been a fantastic buy with the right timing, also for buying and selling over and over again as it rises and falls.

Yeh I'm doing neither, either way round but he's lost his touch I think

[growthpotential] 19/8/2020 23:34

Indeed, happen to have Shell and Glencore but part of a diverse portfolio luckily!

[watfordhornet] 19/8/2020 19:33

Trouble with you buywell is, even tho you may have a valid viewpoint, the way you put it forward is so damn childish.
Of zero value to my investment decisions......FILTERED

Bank malaise continues in an unabated fashion

Bank charts are all looking the same sort of shape as a result

The angle of the dangle gets forever downwards akin to brewers droop syndrome

Something is needed to stimulate a reaction to get some erective traction in an upwards direction

[milliethedog] 18/8/2020 14:06

Watch out imastu if you go off subject you'll get sanctioned by the ADVFN self appointed Police.....
Seem to recall you have mentioned other companies than HSBC in the past...tut tut

Had Gollum on filter for years - Surprised he's not topped himself before now...spud

[trikytree] 18/8/2020 11:43

Buywell spamming almost every thread I read. Ignore.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 18/8/2020 11:40

Yeah. It might be the case. Or it might not be. And a giant rat might eat Trump. Or it might not.

Are you this dull in real life?

[buywell3] 18/8/2020 09:22

wobble wobble

US CEOs are selling stock. That could be a bad sign for the epic market rally

Among the global banks, Deutsche prefers Standard Chartered, still kept at ‘hold’ with a price target of 415p, over HSBC, which remained a ‘sell’ with a target of 300p.

[geckotheglorious] 17/8/2020 17:30

Nope,it won't be repaid.

It will be

a) Inflated away

or

b) Defaulted on in some form..

but what of corporate, and personal debt?

The debt icebergs there are huge as well...So it'll be defaults/reschedulings galore in the case of the former.

[gaffer73] 17/8/2020 16:22

That debt will never be repaid. Can you imagine how America is ever going to repay 25 trillion or the UK 2 trillion. It silly really because everyone knows it won't be repaid but they keep making out like it will!
