I'm holding my nerve and just bottom fishing this is the third purchase I've made in TW in the last 2 weeks.

It's the folk with deep pockets are are driving down the sp, my guess is they're working on the principle that covid-19 has and will continue to alter the everyday priorities of the general population.

[tradejunkie2] 16/3/2020 09:55

Surprised this is not below 100p holding up very well.

[martyn9] 16/3/2020 09:48

WFL true enough!!!

Nothing to do with margin calls.

Your product is 3 times overvalued

Your buyers have left town

Your staff can’t work

You have mountains of stock

Cancellation rates, are the only thing going through the roof

Martyn9, The world has always been bonkers... ;)

[martyn9] 16/3/2020 09:41

Clarky the worlds gone bonkers, watch this space 50p i predict 8 working days.

[clarky5150] 16/3/2020 09:39

We shouldn't hit 50p. That is almost as low as credit crunch. Margin calls will have been kicking in helping to exaggerate the fall.

[martyn9] 16/3/2020 09:35

Again revised my buying more fiqure now from £1.10 to 50p, this devastation is never ending, but what a buying opportunity.

Bargains galore

This is very like 1987.The market falls,then attempts to stage a recovery but then falls way again primarily because redemption requests flow in.In these circumstances,fund managers will be faced with a dilemma as to whether to hold on to stocks that they think will show relative short term resilience or simply top slice across the board thereby maintaining existing weightings.

You're almost at your buy in price Jug.

HAVE BEEN WARNING FOR WEEKS THAT IT WAS TIME TO PUT YOUR FAMILY FIRST AND TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION

HAS THE GREAT 2020 DEPRESSION OFFICIALLY STARTED :

Yes it has, unfortunately 99.9999% of the worlds population can’t yet see it yet.

Eventually they will.

Mankind is facing a pandemic of unimaginable magnitude and suffering, combined with a world drowning in debt, that has zero chance of being repaid.

It is absolutely vital that you put family first , particular children

We are not far off, forced sellers of ALL ASSETS, (bar Gold , for immediate delivery)

Paper gold, might as well be flushed down the toilet.

I have no predictions on the outcome of this terrible virus.

I do have some predictions on the likely financial outcomes

1/ Most shares are not far off worthless as profits will be extinguished for years, even then, investors might pay a pe of 3 for the the best growth stocks.

2/ Most bonds ( company and government ) worthless as everyone defaults.

3/ House Tiny values after banks go bust and stop lending. No one has a job.

4/ Land for food production has some value but needs to be protected.

Trust in business goes down the pan in a straight line, world trade dries up as everyone wants to be paid up front.

The only medium of exchange for goods and services that CAN BE TRUSTED BY ALL is, GOLD.

No one wants printed sheets of toilet paper. ( money

It’s about to turn on a sixpence.

Governments will furnish the world with yet more, free cash, but they can’t control the mindset of the people, or the virus.

sikh, Same as it would for any ones sites or offices. WFL cutting interest rates doesn't serve any benefits & total waste of time, It didn't help in the financial crisis & it certainly won't make any difference now & doesn't help the man in the street, far to small a cut. It might make the pound worth a bit more though!

[wfl1970] 15/3/2020 21:13

US just slashed its rates to near 0%...

[sikhthetech] 15/3/2020 20:13

What would happen if a housebuilder's development(s) or offices were infected with Covid-19?

[m4rtinu] 15/3/2020 20:10

Alangriff #046. Best wishes. Not sure if you will be interested but some community groups trying to help. But as always some worries around "strangers" knocking on your door. You sound philosophical but here's s link mentioning some ideas.

[clarky5150] 15/3/2020 14:13

The only reason I'm kicking myself is closing out my hedged short after the blue day early last week. I am not a shorter but instead used it to hedge against my TW holding. Had that stayed open I would be in a significant buying position. As it is its hold on for dear life.
We complain about tracking the DOW but most of the scare is currently our side of the pond so I'm hoping that the US will put the brakes on any drastic falls over here early next week.
Of course the 'confirmed cases' are now only seriously ill patients in hospital as anyone ringing 111 with symptoms similar to COVID19 are being classed as positive but not added to the list.
If the govt holds its nerve against the pressures of the great unwashed and keeps schools open it should hopefully keep enough emergence services at the helm to treat those who actually need it. As the weeks pass the thousands of fit and healthy who have had a bout and come out the other side will slowly start to tip the scales in a positive way.

My thoughts go out to those directly and indirectly known to me who are classed as high risk and I hope self isolation protects them from this.
I had a mild flu like bout only 3 weeks ago so possibly its been and gone for me but I am healthy and do not fear this virus any more than flu.
If you are in the same boat as me please consider taking a little time out of your day and helping out your vulnerable neighbours. It might make the difference of life and death to someone you know and then all the profit in the world is truly put into context.
To those posters trying to put a rational and calm debate forward, thank you. To those who obviously get some kind of jolly causing panic and distress to others please reconsider your actions and do something positive with your time. You may be surprised how much better it will make you feel.

Clarky.

I could have written that myself,absolutely spot on,

[csimpson5] 15/3/2020 12:38

The voice of reason with what's going on at the moment. World has indeed gone mad.
