London Stock Exchange Share Discussion Threads

The recent crash of Refinitiv terminals raises concerns in that how much money is required to fix the glitches, stop customers switching to say Bloomberg and update the systems generally? I read how Euronext intend to close their UK data centre and move to an Italian location, the concern was more that UK traders could face nano second delays. If nano seconds are so critical, should Refinitiv customers opt to run both Refinitiv and Bloomberg systems so as to avoid or limit exposure to system crashes? I appreciate the integration of Refinitiv is only 3 to 4 months in but how LSE works through IT integration is surely critical for LSE shareholders?

Holding LSE in a long term portfolio which I hopefully don't have to access!

amazing that nobody comments on this on regular basis it may go down on occasion but it it always returns to its true direction north.

Fantastic opportunity to get in here. Volumes will be going through the roof at LSE and LCH

lovely chart but what a puny dividend - irrelevant I guess if good capital appreciation . But can get a good dividend combined with a good looking chart with utilities and most building stocks .

I am firmly AGAINST shortening LSE's hours. Here's why.... 1. More news, good or bad, will happen while LSE is closed, resulting in even more/bigger gapping up/down at the open, while little people like me are excluded from the action. 2. It's my hobby, why would I want less access? 3. LSE punches above its weight partly because it has long hours, bridges other key markets. 4. They keep saying Wall Street has shorter hours. This is because the USA is a massive economy, a leader, not a sheep, it can get away with it. It also cannot open before California (3 or 4 hours behind) wakes up, and needs to let people home before NY grinds to a halt in the evenings. 5. They keep saying work-life balance and mental health. Ever heard of shift work? They could shorten peoples' hours and have early late shifts. Also means they wouldn't have to travel in the rush-hour, taking strain off them and our bursting-at-the-seams transport system.

They need to enact a break of a couple of hours from midday then I could get my lunch and siesta done by NY opening!!

[luderitz] 16/12/2019 21:15

Pretty please.

Amizon and ebay are in talks to take over share trading for buying and selling. This would be great no city rip off merchants.
