Don't see no gap for the moment - unless it is the opening gap being filled and we're set to plunge further.

Who would be an investor in this shark-pool? Me...


Edit - actually a little gap at nearly 48?

Where is Aphro?

Was kicking myself for not taking a trade last week alas may well dip in a some point 39/40 should be a good support but with wider market worries who knows.

Spenny you prediction was based on charts this is more than that with Greek worries you were lucky on your call :-)

Isn't it about now that someone appears banging on about Elliot Waves?

Says 39p to buy on the chart

[imastu pidgitaswell] 16/5/2012 08:35

I'll admit I am a bit surprised by a 25% fall in 8 trading days, in the middle of which was a strong interim statement from a competitor. But as I've always said, just when you think this can't go any lower, down it plunges.

A great opportunity though:

BP looking for 370

[imastu pidgitaswell] 15/5/2012 16:55

No - I just sold one of the chunks late Friday that I had bought last week for a few percent, and have now bought them back. Should have sold more and bought back more, but that's hindsight.

May well be buying yet more if it goes lower - but that will need BP to clear 410.

I'm used to being on the wrong side of a falling share price - the good part is that its saves me from having to take any decisions - just hold them until they're in profit...

[smurfy2001] 15/5/2012 16:29

BDEV smashed.

[sir rational] 15/5/2012 16:28

Not all of them I hope

Common currency perfectly good idea without political/ fiscal integration, viz dollarization countries

Eg IMV Greece should just have run the Euro alongside the Drachma and let it be increasingly used for commercial and government spending & payment.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 15/5/2012 16:12

Near it, yes. It's the precedent it sets for the likes of Portugal, Spain, Ireland Italy, even France etc. What happens to them if they get in the same state - the lending consequences are, well, not nice. Bank lending (to corporates mainly but also to punters) will be tough. Solution? Nationalise the banks...

Stupid concept, the Euro - you either have political and fiscal integration along with a common currency or you don't have a common currency.

No easy solutions from here, just a choice of unpleasant options. And as ever, we're told that 'markets hate uncertainty'. Au contraire I'd suggest, 'markets' love it - the chance to buy and sell the same shares over and over again and pick up bonus payments accordingly. Until they balls it up and bankrupt us all, but hey, it's not their money, eh?

If Greece default and exit the Euro and amongst other industry sectors it has a knock on effect to European banks, is increased mortgage lending really going to be top of the agenda?

[sir rational] 15/5/2012 16:00

Need to refer back to that chart, so far, good

[imastu pidgitaswell] 15/5/2012 15:51

A number of people said it would fall under 45p and that we'd be back then.

So here we are and it's still falling...

Waiting to add back Friday's sale, but doesn't seem much point as it's still going down.

[spennysimmo] 15/5/2012 15:04

I did say this would happen back in March and I was poo poo'd.

[smurfy2001] 15/5/2012 13:06

Euro worries mainly, wow just look at the bank stocks..

[imastu pidgitaswell] 15/5/2012 13:03

On what basis?

[smurfy2001] 15/5/2012 12:45

New lows, down to 25p?

[imastu pidgitaswell] 15/5/2012 12:12

Great bounce, this one...


Legal and General dumping below 3% threshold last week, presumably more today.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 14/5/2012 17:01

Yes, a higher low.

See that straw, yes that one, got it...


:-)

[shaws37] 14/5/2012 16:40

must be due a bounce, perhaps tomorrow.....
