It means the markets will crash to staggering lows I predict 3k FTSE and SUB 10k Dow.

UNLESS....they find the vaccine quickly or better the virus mutates to a less dangerous one like Ebola did.

Maybe I should have bought more SLP considering the speed that the share price is rising at......

I wonder what 'Disease X' has to do with SLP?

[nimrod22] 24/2/2020 15:28

10,000 deaths a year in UK from flu. 2,628 from the new corona virus worldwide. It will go the same way as the last corona virus.
Sold ATT and PCT on Thursday buying back 5% cheaper today inside ISA. Plenty other bargains out there.

I think you would be better of going shopping for food while you still can.



The coronavirus sweeping the planet could be the 'Disease X' which experts have warned about, according to a World Health Organization representative.

The name is given to a future, mysterious pathogen which could break out among humans and wreak havoc across the world.

SARS-CoV-2 has infected around 80,000 people in the two months since it emerged at an animal market in Wuhan, China in December.

It has killed more than 2,600 and can cause severe lung damage and trigger multiple organ failure, mainly among old or weak patients.

Dr Marion Koopmans, a virologist for the WHO, said: 'Whether it will be contained or not, this outbreak is rapidly becoming the first true pandemic challenge that fits the disease X category, listed to the WHO's priority list of diseases for which we need to prepare in our current globalized society.'

Her comments come less than six months after a report led by a former WHO official which warned a flu-like illness could kill up to 80million people if it broke out.

I think MMs shook the tree on this one pretty hard today.

Ya never know danger

Would be funny if this ended blue. People regularly seem to get caught out by having tight trailing stops here.

Sold a small part of my holding last week as SLP was amounting to almost 20% of my portfolio. With this drop, it's becoming very difficult not to buy back in

[stoodio] 24/2/2020 15:10

I already did at 6p :)

[chimers] 24/2/2020 15:09

This ain't ending it's going to be one long dump and edgy climb and then another dump and rinse and repeat ALL YEAR.

Catch a knife if you want, be my guest.

[stoodio] 24/2/2020 15:07

Annnnnd, the buyers return...

[chimers] 24/2/2020 15:07

I never said they WOULD I said they COULD

[stoodio] 24/2/2020 15:06

Did the markets close numb nuts?

My thoughts exactly. Selling now is ludicrous IMO, but each to their own of course. Next results should be astonishing and I feel, only then, will this kick on towards £1.00. Happy to hold, bumps along the way and let’s see what gives come April / May. I feel I’ll likely be kicking myself I didn’t average up (heavily) at 60p.

Oh and RULE #2. OF INVESTING IS....NEVER LOSE YOUR STASH.

[chimers] 24/2/2020 15:01

You’re a fkin real one that’s for sure! Take your scaremongering rhetoric back to the editor of the Daily Star! Rocket man implemented a ‘mandatory cremation’ for anyone who dies, nothing to do with coronavirus (albeit one of his strange preventative measures). With a total lack of crematoriums / facilities in the country to undertake such measures they be burning bodies in the hills, so what? Get back on YouTube buddy.

[stoodio] 24/2/2020 15:01

The question I keep asking myself is this. Is SLP heading back to my very healthy entry point of 6p. The answer, is er, no.

[stoodio] 24/2/2020 15:00

Rule #2 of investing; remember nothing goes up in a straight line.
