Market preview: Stock futures point to small losses at the open, suggesting a possible breather after the Dow and S&P 500 hit record highs. Markets across Asia are up after China's trade surplus widened, though seasonal factors may have helped. European bourses edge higher after a strong rise in Germany's industrial production. Gold +1.2% after yesterday's sharp selloff. No major economic reports.

I'm now out of RBS prefs, and hence out of RBS completely, on the balance of
probabilities. In the (unlikely imho) event of sanity returning to the financial
markets, I may buy back in.

The mistake made by rbs was to reduce the shares, some will think they look dear at 285 but if left they would have been below 30p and looked cheap and probably would have been alot higher

[portside1] 08/5/2013 12:28

these shares went to 375p on loses they have dropped 90p on turning into profit , manipulation to drive out holders ,do not sell big rise is going to come

Not a massive fan of zerohedge but good to read for balance, and this one I fully agree with

RBS is disappointed after the results. I purchased some CEY below 40p and not sure how high it will go to.

lol

I can tell those of you invested in NEXT, that it is the retailer of choice up the Baltics especially for children's clothing, and provides free online delivery. The store here is packed.

One for the bot (from Next's IMS).

"It is apparent that the poor March figures were down to an abnormally cold spring, equally the good weeks since mid April have been boosted by pent up demand from the previous month. We believe that neither period is indicative of any significant change in the underlying economy."

That last post sounds a bit commie, Leeds.I knew you'd come around eventually..;)

[leedskier] 08/5/2013 07:38

mikerman, yes ... whether the City will translate that into wealth creation for the many rather than just the few remains to be seen.

[leedskier] 08/5/2013 07:37

Everton's manager.

[jazza] 08/5/2013 07:35

Fergie out, Mourinho in?

Sir Alex Ferguson's future as Manchester United manager was shrouded in doubt on Tuesday evening, with sources claiming there would be a statement about his position and that the squad had been told to expect an announcement.

Some of the United players were at a golf day on Tuesday near Altrincham, where they played against members of the coaching staff and, according to sources close to some of the players, were told to prepare to receive news about their 71-year-old manager.

The club's press department could not be reached to confirm or deny the story despite continued efforts to contact it. Ferguson, though, is expected at Chester Races on Wednesday for a planned day out with some United players.

Late on Tuesday evening no statement had been issued by United. Due to the club's flotation on the New York Stock Exchange, any uncertainty about the figure who is British football's most successful manager would have to be addressed immediately to appease investors and stave off a potential fall in valuation.
