Furlough ends at end of Oct, Budget in few weeks time, US Elections, Deutsche Bank woes and this evening revelations about HSBC and money laundering

Brexit debacle , Covid 19 second wave lockdown, negative interest rates ? countless firms just hanging on, unemployment sure to rise and probably a second big adjustment for the DOW. Have I forgotten anything ?

I was hoping he would grow into the job, but he is completely out of his depth. A dithering buffoon.

I hate to say it careful, but you are right, it's painful to watch!

So, all the country's in the world are wrong, and you are right?

Unfortunately..it all happened infront of my eyes..doesnt matter what they admitted with ..in the first 3 months..as soon as virus positive..clocked stopped ..allowed them to die without giving them a fighting chance...due to policy by back office scientists..tied our hands..but last 3.5 months we are fighting back..hardly any died

It is difficult to admit you were wrong.
I voted for Boris in the election, not to fix Brexit, but because I had no realistic alternative.

I was hoping he would grow into the job, but he is completely out of his depth. A dithering buffoon.

I was wrong, but it amazing how many Boris fans on this thread have not admitted they were wrong.

It is true that if Brexit turns out to be a financial disaster as many predict, then Covid will be a built I excuse for the struggling economy.
And Covid has created serious problems.

Another motive is to keep the public in a state of fear and panic to ensure that most of them will stick to the rules.

Yet another motive is the growth of the vested interest Covid industry, these 'experts' are enjoying their place in the sun, all of that fame and publicity.

Do these low numbers justify the extra deaths caused from the neglect of more traditional illnesses such as Cancer, Heart and the rest. Not to mention the problems going forward caused by the lockdown. Unemployment, wrecked industries and mental problems.
No, so HMG is trying to eggagerate the problem to convince us that they have made a mess of things.

Sometimes MM comes as Jo Bolg and talk it down the share price and to prove their point bring the share down to say 20p for Lloyds and shake the tree to accumulate all the share they can get at rock bottom prices. As you know bank still makes 1.25% minimum above base rate on mortgages and more on buy to let. When inflation return base rate will go up in 2 to 3year horizon. Stay the course as non of the banks are going burst as Government will not make the same mistakes as 2008. DYOR .

REALLY?? so we all worry about corona, and they slip the Brexit (shambles) through. Lol.

[bargainbob] 20/9/2020 15:59

To hide from the Brexit shambles ?

[aceuk] 20/9/2020 15:58

The only risk there is in the world is that of being bludgeoned to death by bloody experts!

[mikemichael2] 20/9/2020 15:53

OK, well why are they??

Interesting graph of total deaths from all causes this year in Sunday Times.

The average deaths through the summer are normally about 11,000 per week.

The graphs showed a brief peak but then rapidly fall off and total deaths are at 10,000. for the last few weeks, below normal.
It appears that Covid may have killed a few old sick people a bit earlier.

p.s. Did you note the seriously ill 98 year old assumed to die of Covid because he tested positive.
12 deaths must mean almost no deaths at all if they were not trying to pump up the numbers.

When 11,000 die every week in the summer up to 14,000 per week in a normal winter, why are the bamboozling the innumerate public with deaths of 100 or less per week from covid?.
Even if they rise to 400 per week it is not that significant.

I will wait for 5p lol...i am not buying in 73p rather 25p...lets wait for 5p... i waited for 20p on itv...iag ..i am waiting for 10p and bt..20p ...cine ...0.5p..nothing wrong that i put a short on ig at bottom level and get scarred with my short...at these level

[sikhthetech] 20/9/2020 15:23

scruff
"So why not sell at 25 and buy back at 20 if thats what you expect."

Everyone's circumstances and opinions will be different. Traders probably would sell and buy lower.

I drip fed a few at 28p, whilst still expecting 20p... Why? There are several uncertain events coming together over the next few weeks. Any 1 of these uncertain events could cause another stockmarket crash, economic turmoil etc

The point I will be a stronger buyer is when more of those uncertain events are factored into the price or they become 'certain' events.
So longer term I think Barc & Lloy will be ok but too many shorter term risks.

Tens of thousands of British expats in Europe 'will be stripped of their UK bank accounts and credit cards in weeks' after government failed to negotiate post Brexit rules


•British expats in Europe risk having their UK bank accounts closed due to Brexit

•Banks including Lloyds and Barclays have starting giving notice to customers

•Post-Brexit rules mean it will become illegal for UK banks to provide for British customers in the EU


Tens of thousands of British expats who live in Europe risk having their UK bank accounts closed 'in weeks' due to post-Brexit rules.

Lloyds, Barclays and Coutts are among a number of UK banks that have starting giving notice to expatriate customers to say they will close their accounts at 11pm on December 31.

The end of the withdrawal agreement makes it a 'bureaucratic nightmare' for UK banks to provide for British customers in the EU post-Brexit, with many simply choosing to pull their services.
