A little disappointing, I was expecting a hefty drop here!

[philanderer] 06/2/2018 00:01

FTSE futures -260pts

[ruethewhirl] 05/2/2018 22:30

Expecting heavy indiscriminate selling in the morning.

I'll be picking up a few more for sure.

[ruethewhirl] 05/2/2018 22:02

Essential - LOL.

No rally with the broad market rally, but guess what happens during the crash...

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 21:15

Dow -1179, will need our tin hat in the morning !!. Expecting Ft to start -248 . This will alter with morning Asian markets

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 20:42

Back up to - 1000 again !!

[essentialinvestor] 05/2/2018 20:37

The big V is back, for Shire it never went away!.

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 20:30

If you see this last week you would have not believed this would have happened

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 19:55

Yep, it's a real casino out there now.

DJones - 630 pts.

Took 80 pts. Too volatile :-)

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 18:54

I've just gone long the DJones on a SB at 25090 . Fingers crossed :-)

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 18:38

Yes phil, if it stays like it, it will be over 1000 drop in two days. I new there would be a correction with the Dow at some point with it going up 6,000 points in the last year but it's some drop :(

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 18:32

SHP still tumbling stateside, DJones now -400 pts :-O

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 17:23

I agree, I think a lot of us hopping they would take us over to knock the share price up. when I eventually get back to buying and selling again I will be back in here with you guys

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 17:20

jpj, I'm happy to hold here (and my others come to that) I reckon value will out in the end.

At least the £/s is coming back to 1.40 :-)

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 17:17

Hi phil. Still think this is a good stock and would buy it at the moment if it's any consolation to other SHP holders. Just in too heavy with CNA

[essentialinvestor] 05/2/2018 16:55

CNA is a sector secular issue, and remember you now have RDSB
making their first forray in to domestic supply. With Shell's prodigious
cashflow and supply network, they could crush most others, if they choose to.

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 16:52

Ahternoon jpj , yes SHP my worst one today .

Results on the 14th for SHP. Let's see what the head honcho has to say.

[jpjohn1] 05/2/2018 16:42

Hi Phil, this one like CNA as been hit bad. I sold 60k when it was at 37.65p. I was hesitant and was not sure because I still thought this a 40+ share. These markets are strange, they never seem to go where you think they will

Cambridge, Ma. - February 5, 2018 - Shire plc (LSE: SHP, NASDAQ: SHPG), the global biotechnology leader in rare diseases, today announced that it will have 12 presentations, including 11 posters and one oral presentation, at the 14th annual WORLDSymposium(TM) 2018 in San Diego, Calif., February 5-9.

Shire will share research data for four lysosomal disease areas, including Hunter syndrome (also known as Mucopolysaccharidosis type II or MPS II), type 1 Gaucher disease, Fabry disease and metachromatic leukodystrophy (also known as MLD).

The company will also sponsor three satellite symposia and host an exhibit at WORLDSymposium(TM) (booth #301).

No rise here until the crashy crashy Dow Jones has worked through, then a move into defensives should help pharma sector wide.

[mbmiah] 05/2/2018 12:54

14 February has to be good to reverse this slump.

[philanderer] 05/2/2018 12:50

Now maybe the time for an opportunistic bid . Anything near 4500p would take some defending by the company.

edit: DJ futures -300pts
