Maybe tommorow!

BoE just cut interest rates by 0.5%, from 0.75% to 0.25%

[hamhamham1] 11/3/2020 07:08

When market go up and down by 5% erratically, that is almost always a sign for recession looming.

Reckon it might be time to get back on the FTSE short today though

Except I'm saying drip buy through the crisis. Slightly different to just splurging your load on the first big drop. But whatever.

[hamhamham1] 11/3/2020 06:21

Well, I think we probably need a former, latter and special third 1NHS grouping - no offence meant to any :)

Dround. No-one is saying sell your shares here, But there certainly are some saying buy now and others saying sit on your hands, You, nyboy, etc are in the former group and myself and a few others are in the latter group. That is how debate and comparing different point of views work.
Time will tell who calls it right.

Coronavirus mortality in Lombardy is now 8%, more than double Wuhan! Lombardy health system is completely beyond ability to deliver adequate care - hence rationing who gets ICUs. It’s sad, so so sad. #COVID19 Let’s not let this happen to us America... hxxps://www.wsj.com/articles/italy-with-elderly-population-has-worlds-highest-death-rate-from-virus-11583785086 …

Landing slot usage requirements have been ditched until post corona. Will save a stack of money (and prevent a load of CO2 emissions).

Thank you dround

Scammer. Don't click.

[dround87] 10/3/2020 21:12

My portfolio news feed absolutely packed with director buying today. The big boys are buying. So sell your shares to them and hide in a corner until this is all over.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has updated its financial analysis of Coronavirus on the global air transport industry, revising estimates of 2020 global revenue losses for passenger business of between $63bn and $113bn, up from $29.3bn.

Interestingly Royal Caribbean (RCL) Listed in The US hit a capitulation low of $40 approx 70% off the highs and closed above $50, looks like worst case is in there, so could be encouraging for the travel sector as investors take the end game view over Coronavirus

[hamhamham1] 10/3/2020 20:27

OK, everything is fine, nothing to see

[m1k3y1] 10/3/2020 20:22

and I am bored of the continual negativity.

[hamhamham1] 10/3/2020 19:28

On the news Scotland, Wales and N Ireland only have approx 10% space ICU beds.
My.last.post today, am just bored of the la-la-la mentality.

Smithy. We are exactly where italy was 2 weeks ago.
The budget will lift marlets only for the amount of time it takes traders to read the virus news.

[smithys2019] 10/3/2020 19:22

Uk corona cases only up 54 today. Average 50 for the past few days.

I’m starting to get concerned more about the impact on the USA. uSA country leadership led by a nincompoop, no nationalised healthcare system and therefore no centralised healthcare coordination, other than Pence singing coombyaa and praying for a cure. Wide scale health issues in the general population. Impacts: issues with workforce when (if) this goes wide scale in the USA impacting supply (high tech manufacture needing shop floor workers) and demand for foreign products. Potential Global knock on. Benefits during/post recovery will probably mean far more onshoring of tech production - or at least a move closer to home and greater diversification of manufacture locations. Trump 2021 will be a car crash- the Dems will destroy him for derailing obamacare. I will be looking closely at the USA figures over the next few weeks.

Truly believe European free healthcare and pan-European coordination can nip the Europe problem in the bud.

Hopefully budget tomorrow will give us all a boost and guidance as to the support ULPLC intends to proffer business. Hopefully more than a pack of hankies and a bottle of bleach for every household😂

[hamhamham1] 10/3/2020 19:21

M1. Just look at the news, when have you last seen global ly independent countries mimicking health scenes like this? France/Spain is 8 days behind Italy, the UK is a couple of days behind them. UK will have areas of mass isolation in 2 weeks and lasting for min a month after that.

There is no naivety when it comes to Walsh and IAG.

[hamhamham1] 10/3/2020 19:12

Yes things always recover over years but the depth and length of this global trouble is undetermined.
I am frustrated with posters like NY Boy encouraging investors and making out this is a 6 week v shaped recovery. IMO It really isn't.

[hamhamham1] 10/3/2020 19:06

There a fine line between optimism and naivity.
