It's the admission of shares granted under various company schemes. Doesn't affect any thing apart from there are 72m more shares to split the profits with.

Can anyone tell me the likely impact of block listing on the share price?

[peddlers] 07/9/2020 16:52

HSBC have popped up on my radar. Looks like there is a bullish divergence here. I am long from 318 with a tight stop. Looks to be very undervalued IMO.

FGP the share to be in right now , the largest private equity firms are about to bid . The Share price is rocketing. 2 assets alone Are worth 320p (See the cityam link today), it’ll be the ftses biggest mover in 2020

With its main business in China and around, where the cov-19 is under control, and business is back to normal, I am not so sure why its share is low. The end of year result should see a dramatic recovery, then the share will shoot up with dividends paying out. It is good time to invest.

[inthemix] 06/9/2020 13:36

I've gone long. 350p then out an probably back down.

The 200’s by year end?

[trader536] 04/9/2020 10:05

My short looking healthy.

Only a stupid git would be buying banks from Buffet. It’s a long slow ride to the bottom, how many years to single figs?

Mining shares are doing OK...

[triple witcher] 04/9/2020 08:06

Banks the only risers early on as we see money coming out of tech stocks think this may change though as the trading day progresses

Large fall on Wall Street reversed the earlier FTSE gains in the UK. Has the last bear capitulated re my earlier post ? Jobs day tomorrow, if the report is not good then this downturn may gain momentum. Talk on the street is that there maybe some Margin calls for the over leveraged Robin Hood traders some of whom have only seen a rising market, maybe some money coming off the table for the techs as some of the stellar gains are banked

[imastu pidgitaswell] 03/9/2020 08:05

Nope - one flailing multinational oil giant struggling to rise off the floor is enough...

This and BP are (for me) light investments compared to others I hold; the sort of thing to hold onto for some years - part of a move towards a longer term balanced portfolio, and spreading of risk. Having been pretty much 100% gold and silver mining until they came good in recent months, am now spread more broadly, and have bought many of them (including these) much later into the pandemic and at what I thought were lows - which some were and some weren't. As well as retaining some of the gold and silver mining shares and also diversifying within that sector.

Have to say I am far from convinced about the common advice about diversification. For me, it is just dilution of strong gains achieved through concentrating on a few stocks and going in big, gradually - on the right stock and the right sector. Which is not the case here - for the moment...

[milliethedog] 02/9/2020 20:04

imastu.....you mention BP
RDSB on your watch list too?

I agree Dope viz time horizon bank side.

Am 50% cash, 40% gold - 10% blue chip (Looking at BAe/GSK/Aviva)

As well as US stocks.

[dope007] 02/9/2020 16:46

Deut is a government supported basket case

Chinese banks/government are one and the same

To be fair I think no bank is worth investing in today with the outlook for the next 12 months. I am 95% cash, but recently picked up a small amount of BAE, BT, Aviva, and 4D Pharma

As for my pension fund!! Goodness knows what they are invested in!!!

[geckotheglorious] 02/9/2020 16:42

Are you talking Chinese Banking system(overly leveraged to corporates such as miners/builders that have collateralised their loans), the Chinese people or the Chinese Govt?

I wasnt aware you were being country specific.

Deut is a far worse state than HSBC and has far bigger implications for the European and UK banking sectors...

I'd take HSBC over Barclays(Spivs), Lloyds(Too UK economy centric) and RBS(Even bigger spivs than the spivviest spivs in spivdom!)

Stan a better bet than HSBC imv but HSBC is far from being the worst. RBS takes that accolade.

[dope007] 02/9/2020 16:33

You do realise the Chinese debt situation is worse than the USA right?

I was talking UK quoted banks by the way

[dope007] 02/9/2020 16:29

I'm watching all the banks, but the ongoing low rate environment with no end in site is a killer for them

[imastu pidgitaswell] 02/9/2020 16:23

Yup. I can't defend it...

But look again in 6 months, perhaps (probably see it starting with a 2 or a 1...)

[dope007] 02/9/2020 16:21

I'm surprised anyone is gambling on this one. Of all the banks this is probably the worst

[spud] 02/9/2020 10:12

And vice versa for the UK. spud

This is a momentum driven rally in the US but by no means a broad one. I think anybody entering the party at this stage in the US is coming fairly late. What's the analogy, when the last bear capitulates and joins the bull rally it's time to exit the party !!
