Well it's heavily commodity weighted, which is killing it.
One of the most extraordinary markets days I've ever seen.

What else u looking at ?

We are now back to 1998 in terms of support for this share. All the other supports - the Financial Crisis and the 2016 oil bust have been taken out. I've decided not to buy any more even at these levels (after today) as apart from keeping some cash for other opportunities it's clear my reliance on historical support levels isn't working. The Great Crash of 2020 is something new and unpredictable on past precedent.

I still think these are 'bargain' levels though. The only question being whether a better bargain could have been had by waiting...

Historical yield now 12.9%.

NYSE president Stacey Cunningham: Circuit breakers are working as designed

U.S. stocks suffered a historic drop on Thursday as investors dumped equities after an address from President Donald Trump failed to quell concerns over the possible economic slowdown stemming from the coronavirus.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted nearly 9%, or about 2,000 points and was on pace for its biggest one-day percentage decline since the market crash of 1987, when it collapsed by more than 20%. The S&P 500 traded down 7.7%, joining the Dow in a bear market on Thursday. The main U.S. stock benchmark is now down 25% from its record set just last month. The Nasdaq Composite pulled back 7.5%.

It got so bad, that trading was halted briefly after the open for 15 minutes as markets hit the mandated “circuit-breaker” threshold used by U.S. exchanges. Not much was immune to the market plunge. Small-cap benchmark the Russell 2000 index cratered by 10%. Gold fell. Oil plunged. Credit market spreads widened significantly. Only U.S. Treasuries were higher. Even bitcoin dropped.

“We are going into a global recession,” said Mohamed El-Erian, chief economic adviser at Allianz, on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” “After what’s been happening the last few days, we are going to see a spread of economic sudden stops.”

“The trouble with economic sudden stops is it’s not easy to restart an economy,” El-Erian said. He believes the selling won’t stop until the bear market hits down 30%.

[supermarky] 12/3/2020 16:04

I know I said I wouldn't but I have just bought another lot, just 150 shares this time. Just cant resist and cant believe this. Trying not to be too greedy.

[sapper2476] 12/3/2020 15:53

Drip feed the buys in. I drip in 500 quid a time. Every 2-3% drop. Will be a turn around in a few months.

[watfordhornet] 12/3/2020 15:53

[supermarky] 12/3/2020 15:47

all eggs in one basket is very risky mind. Be careful.

[gordogecks] 12/3/2020 15:43

Must surely be time to snack on these...

Looks very tempting for a tuck away Sipp side and forget investment.

[w1ndjammer] 12/3/2020 15:39

[w1ndjammer] 12/3/2020 15:32

Orient i have thought of doing the same, but bottled it so far

[0rient] 12/3/2020 15:29

Thats it..i've just sold all my other stocks and gone all in here. I watched the last couple of crashes spreading over 15 years and never took advantage of RDSB which each time went onto double in price and not once reduce the dividend payment!
They will find a vaccine for the virus & OPEC/RUSSIA will see sense 👊🏻

[w1ndjammer] 12/3/2020 15:26

World leaders caught with their pants down, worrying about climate change instead

of the next virus....
