That’s not it bookbroker. Only just tested. This has been about for weeks. Containment no longer possible now delay. NHS not ready for this either.
This is terrible news.
Lockdown sure to happen shortly.

Big deal, how many folk have died of common flu related illness this year already!

[polar fox] 05/3/2020 17:30

Breaking news - first virus death in the UK, reported as an elderly man in a hospital.

Am I correct in saying after the financial crisis of 2008 RBS were trading around 11p and today they’re 16p???????
Makes you think.

Must be lots of filthy people your way for toilet roll to run out

I went into a supermarket early on, and it was reasonably well stocked. Went back after lunch and there were empty shelves everywhere. Toilet rolls, soup cans, pasta and particularly anything that lasts 6/12/18 months are flying off the shelves....

[leedskier] 05/3/2020 16:21

well if it doubles everyday ....

If they’re bringing back the retired in the NHS and they get paid. Do you think they could do with some more help, I do taxidermy in my spare time.

When do we see 1,000 Coronavirus cases. Maybe Tuesday of next week?

[leedskier] 05/3/2020 16:14

The Italian Tourist Board ...

"Italy: a safe country (Covid-19)"

[polar fox] 05/3/2020 16:05

115 now confirmed, up from 90. The supermarkets are being stripped - make sure you're stocked up.

Out of the 115, 8 have contracted the virus in the UK, origin unknown. Getting worse by the day.

This is fall to around 150-155p at some point -

I can't personally see 160 holding but dyor -

[smartie6] 05/3/2020 15:52

Better to hold cash I think. If Warren Buffet has been waiting, what’s good for him is good for me too.

[tomboyb] 05/3/2020 15:47

The worst unfortunately is yet to come -

So currently cannot see any reason to buy yet -

[smartie6] 05/3/2020 15:44

Port side I think we should build a big moat around the U.K.
Wait aren’t we surrounded by sea?

[portside1] 05/3/2020 15:39

So why is Italy the country of covid 19 that is the big question Isolate them

[smartie6] 05/3/2020 15:39

Do you think a short to 80p would be worthwhile?

[leedskier] 05/3/2020 15:37

The population of Iceland is 364K.

300 of them flew back from a holiday in Austria and Italy last week and all were placed in quarantine.

34 of those have tested positively for Covid-19.

[portside1] 05/3/2020 15:27

Still buying and happy to do so Going to be my div share along with barcs

[gcom2] 05/3/2020 15:11

PPI would have paid put to those sick or isolating!!!!

[polar fox] 05/3/2020 15:01

As I have posted several times over the past 18 months or so, my expectation has been for the share price to retest the post-Referendum low in 2016. That was 148.10.

Whether that holds is probably going to depend on the coming pandemic.

[ramco] 05/3/2020 14:59

That is because it is mutating into more aggressive form and starting to attack nervous system...

[smurfy2001] 05/3/2020 14:33

By early next week could see 100K virus cases.

[tomboyb] 05/3/2020 14:00

rbs looks like falling below the 160p mark -

maybe 155-158 finish if it continues -
