Going to be the easiest 50%er going in to 2017 imo. Agree, all those caught in the bear trap sub 500p. Nice.

IGG tipped to be the best of the spread betters. BUY 600p

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 14:07

Oh, no, Dean! We wouldn't want to spoil the bears' Xmas party would we?

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 14:03

The bad news is already out there - it's initial shock impact will fade in importance as the months go by and negotiations begin and the FCA and IG adjust their positions.

[deanroberthunt] 14/12/2016 14:03

it was just a shot across the bow for the blue chip big players......who to be quite honest are conforming 98% to the consultation paper already

[andysand] 14/12/2016 14:00

I would agree with that. I suspect it will try to recover most of the losses in the coming months. At the very least, I thing 600p short term is likely.Either they will relocate, or the government will back off once they see there is little to gain.

ok dood...I'll reel it back in a bit :)

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 13:40

A very long way to go yet, Dean - don't get over-excited now!!

[deanroberthunt] 14/12/2016 12:48

is anyone here interested or have any advice on starting to short the Dow 30 ? .....18000 to 20000 almost straight, overdone ? or still plenty of legs ?

sorry for o/t

FCA in my opinion likes strong, large and well financed firms. From the simple point of view, they can be fined and actually pay for regulation and compensation if need be. Cannot see this changing, post any new regulations.

[staylow1] 14/12/2016 12:23

I'd imagine that's some shorts blown through..

[deanroberthunt] 14/12/2016 12:08

yup. IG is the pick imvho

[mnomis] 14/12/2016 12:08

@ RB1206 - thanks for posting. Pretty sad that regulation of these companies falls through the cracks.

nigelpm - CMC is a tiddler by comparison with very little market history to see. Also why would someone invest in a company that appears to be indicating a move to Germany which may result in a delist from AIM as a result?

[nigelpm] 14/12/2016 11:48

CMC are big as well. Both going to do well. Far more upside in CMC now.

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 11:45

I think it's IG that will be the winner here, nigelpm, they have the scale and will pick up business from the minnows!

[nigelpm] 14/12/2016 11:33

CMC looking great value now - vs IG.

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 11:08

Or water it down to something relatively ineffectual which is more likely imo. They've made their big noise, probably quietly backtrack over coming months.

[deanroberthunt] 14/12/2016 11:05

and hint of moving the jobs abroad or/and offshore (jobs and business), the FCA will be under pressure to retract the consultation paper

[woodhawk] 14/12/2016 11:05

Langy_1

It's still only proposals for discussion at this stage anyway. Ridiculous markdown on that basis - but possibly a great buy for those with an appetite for risk... like me.

[deanroberthunt] 14/12/2016 11:04

some people aren't fit to be using leverage period, or even a base dealing account....end of

[langy_1] 14/12/2016 11:03

It seems the share price is waking up to that possibility Woodhawk.

A real shame but the business needs to protect itself at the end of the day.
