FED cuts rates and QE starts again...are we at QE4 or QE5...lost track of it...

Meja best shorters/rampers ever! How much have media company pension funds benefited from the market fluctuations? What have they sold, what have they bought, how much have they made?

Speak for yourself. Sounds ghastly.

Way of life, we spend most of our days indoors, travel cheek by jawl in sardine packed, high humidity enclosures, work in offices without open windows, runny noses the moment we step out for a breath of cold fresh air. Club in the sweaty crowdy conditions, drink in smokey, musky atmospheres.
Humidity in London as I write is 87% & 69% in Milan. Experts here have a strategy of control, which we have to follow as a herd, or go off and be singled out for trouble.

So, what will Brussels fine Germany and other EU countries for breaking Schengen Area rules?

safe and isolated are contradictory terms.

The tories have got a funny way of winning the next election.

I don't see why we all have to become infected when China has pretty much got it sorted with less than 0.1% infected.


What sort of running of the country is this?

Unacceptable.

Federal Reserve slashes interest rates to zero as part of wide-ranging emergency intervention

[gotnorolex] 15/3/2020 21:39

I watch both on and off, so it's not either or! Grand Tour is big budget production, commercial with product placing and huge sponsorship, scripted voice overs, flash editing for dramatic effect! Both are very watchable.

Err that's in America.

[chavitravi2] 15/3/2020 21:37

Not well. Very difficult for them to make money on low rates.

Dow on the way back up and ftse

Fed reduced interest rates to between zero and 0.25%

How will this bode for banks?😱

Smarties
One problem. Brit approach seems to be keep the older vulnerable safe and isolated and hope the younger and fitter can build up immunity until vaccines available. Italian approach is lockdown to keep all isolated. You being so smart along with the rest of the sneering twitterati please explain
what happens in Italy when they eventually decide to 'Unlock'.

See Germany closing its borders...no problem keeping people out when it suits them.

I can't envisage Lloyd's losing 22b during the coronavirus outbreak so as they have paid a divi during the ppi compensation fiasco, I would say the divi is safe.
