The markets going to be in turmoil all next week with both world wide covid and lockdowns which will knock markets.

You are probably right over the US election the markets in the US could slump and drag the rest of the world with it.

As for MARKS all the above and outlook for MARKS could have a severe impact. The marker knows clothes and home bad but outlook for food food could be hit badly with people not mixing for Christmas.

Andy Bumham wants schools closed

Nat brained illegal rave with up to 700 had to be broken up in Birmingham

Robot,

Covid admissions now 1,444 the last 24 hours the hospitals will become overwhelmed soon.

Everyone saying BOrris too late with lockdown he should have acted sooner with a two week lockdown, because he has left it too late now the lockdown will have to be longer.

The Gov not got s clue it's a shambles.

The market will take another hit now when it opens mass exit from shares and info such things as Gold.

With things being so bad negative interest rates may be next to try and get consumers to spend.

But as you know there are those that have too much and those that have nothing and a north south divide.

London has just given London 1.2 billion transport present .

But would not give Manchester what they wanted .

UK is a 2 sided affair , .

From Scotland border to backside of Birmingham is the poor end , and from Birmigham to lands end is the posh end .

Have and have nots , rich and poor .

Disgrace .

Marks & Spencer is set to reveal the first signs of a boost from its Ocado tie-up after a major collapse in clothing sales.

This week, M&S is expected to post losses of £59million for the six months to late September, with same-store clothing revenues plunging 41 per cent after shops were forced to shut during the lockdown.

However, the chain's joint venture with online grocery specialist Ocado is likely to prove a bright spot. Analysts forecast that it is doing better than originally thought.

Snippet from Yahoo Finance...People stuck indoors this year, due to lockdown measures across the country, have bought £50m ($65m) more chocolate than they did the year before.The increase in the annual spend was driven by the purchase of multipacks and sharing bars at supermarkets, as Britain stayed at home to stop the spread of the coronavirus. This offset a decline in the purchase of single bars from newsagents and other outlets, the Guardian first reported.According to analysts at research group Kantar, sales of multipacks of chocolate bars in supermarkets has risen by more than a fifth, as impulse buying slumped due to government measures.

I think we're near the bottom, maybe a small drop this week due to the overall market, then we're be on the way up, previous bad news already priced in, reduced clothing range, tie up with arcade, Xmas etc. Archie turned Asda round im sure he can do it with M & S . Big British brand DYOR.

See if you get help with your problem .

The FTSE100 is about 26% down this year from Jan.
Interesting to see how shares react on Monday and after the USA election early next week.

I thought todays presentation showed the usual exponential projection which I thought were stupidly pessimistic again.

Beginning to think that the Botton of the market is close, well worth a punt for the brave.
Who knows, better news on Covid and even a tidy result on Brexit could cause a dramatic market surge.

There are some outstanding risk opportunities including mks. With luck, it could be the place for money to be invested in next year.
