smurfy as far as expensive high tech consumables are concerned I think we are at a saturation point. Add to which China is catching-up quickly and is no longer simply manufacturing components and assembling finished products for US companies (i.e. for Apple) to making their own branded products (i.e. OnePlus 6T) and offering them to consumers at significantly lower prices. Trump's trade war with China is/was an attempt to slow China down.


add:


Goldman Sachs has today cut its forecast for Apple.

Leeds, l think all tech stock are being hammered, if you look at NVDA as an example that's halved in price and it's the number 1 GPU company in the world.

Some weeks ago I tried to explain why Apple's wonderful returns for investors was going to reverse and I think it will get worse.

Could be a while yet then Leeds....

Globally the markets will remain volatile until the next US interest rate decision and in the UK until there is clarity over the terms, if any, of Brexit.

[tfergi] 20/11/2018 08:39

Falling.... Again.....

The decision by the international Financial Stability Board means RBS escapes the requirement to maintain capital equivalent to an extra 1 per cent of its risk-weighted assets. This could boost the amount of cash the majority government-owned bank will be able to return to UK taxpayers and institutional shareholders.

This stock is trash!

MIDAS SHARE TIPS: Hold your nerve as market robots give UK shares a hammering after Brexit talks

[skara brae] 18/11/2018 07:44

It can't be good methinks....demotion from the Premier League! Still, let's hope for a bounce on Monday morning.

[gcom2] 17/11/2018 13:08

is that good or bad for shareholders?

[smurfy2001] 17/11/2018 03:16

RBS dropped from list of world's most important banks - meaning it won't have to hold extra cash to protect itself against risk of future collapse

For the current situation to deteriorate sharply, we believe equity market nervousness would need to spread to funding markets. Thus far there appears no evidence of this: short-term GBP funding showed limited strain, as 3m GBP LIBOR remains stable, ~10 bp above 3m GBP OIS vs the Feb-12 peak of 60 bp and 25bp post Brexit vote. Similarly, US$/GBP xccy basis swap is flat vs a 20bp increase post Brexit vote.

Even in the event where the (currently stable) situation in bank funding markets deteriorates sharply, we note that today: (1) banks are stronger; (2) the “crisis backstops” – put in place to deal with the 2008/9 financial crisis and the € sovereign crisis – remain in place, and finally (3) at
extremis, the Bank of England could choose to offer
additional liquidity (as following the Brexit vote), based on banks’ sizeable pools of collateral pre-cleared with the BoE. Combined, the overall picture is reassuring, in our view.

Our economists argue that the political reaction to
the Withdrawal Agreement has increased the risk of a
disorderly Brexit. The next key hurdle is the ratification of the Withdrawal agreement by the House of Commons. If voted down, our economists believe this could lead to (i) a subsequent attempt to pass an amended Withdrawal
agreement, (ii) a second referendum, or (iii) a “no deal” cliff edge departure. For UK exposed banks, we view this as a clearly incremental negative, as it can affect the outlook through volumes, margins and credit losses. Our
Conviction List is positioned for this - our sole “UK bank”
on the CL is STAN (Buy), alongside 4 eurozone banks. We are Sell rated on Lloyds.

Ludicrous price.To think of all the problems RBS has had and has now solved to be back at this level is shocking.

The last time there was a leadership vote against a Tory PM was when Thatcher was PM. The 'rebellion' was by the Europhile wing of the Tory Party, opposed to her constant plotting against Brussels.

This time it comes from the Eurosceptic wing.

I think she will survive because the overwhelming majority of the Tory MPs are still Europhiles. Add to which any rebellion led by Rees Mogg and Boris Johnson is going to be unpopular with the majority of Tory MPs.

[leedskier] 16/11/2018 12:10

It is amazing that it is back to where it was in early 2009.

So this is hit the worst due to Corbyn fear. Surly the public won't make the second worst decision after the EU referendum.That bloke is beyond incompetent.
