Yes many of those regional bank shareprice charts are now looking very similar to VILX's ;-)

Another bank on the skids?

Hmm, I went for triple wheat yesterday...

[waterloo01] 10/5/2023 09:11

Added again yesterday. Holding quite a few but will reassess later.

[waterloo01] 04/5/2023 16:49

Aboard for the ride but so far it's more fart than rocket.

[zcaprd7] 04/5/2023 08:37

Don't mention the war!

Have banked 1p per share profit on that last trade - market seems to be of the opinion that rate hikes are over for now.

Near term risks I suppose are the Debt Ceiling and I think Apple reports today. Seems to have been a lot of earnings beats recently albeit on lowered expectations.

Who knows. We're in a world where bad is good and good is bad and no one knows what direction it's all heading (a time when VIX and VILX should be out performing). Short term depends on any Powell message.

I was hoping to sell on a VIX spike of 25-30. No idea how likely that is though !

[mister md] 03/5/2023 09:06

Exactly - I had a sell quote at 19.8p yesterday and almost sold my last tranche at a profit. Instead I find myself buying a few more at 17.3 this morning. But this thing is dodgy to say the least.

[zcaprd7] 03/5/2023 08:54

Down 10%? Ffs

[waterloo01] 02/5/2023 19:01

Is this the start of a bigger decline? If so, and it should be, it should test the 3800 and if that fails, 3500 or lower. Sell in May did they say.

A little more lively today - more of the same tomorrow leading up to FED decision ?

[mister md] 01/5/2023 09:12

JP Morgan takes over First Republic

Vix up a bit at 16.5

[zcaprd7] 30/4/2023 04:36

I know, another bank died over the weekend as well..

[mister md] 29/4/2023 11:10

Surprised to see the VIX back in the 15's - 3 year low

[zcaprd7] 26/4/2023 12:13

Yes, me too, been burnt too many times before...

[mister md] 26/4/2023 08:25

That's more like it, will take a little profit along the way before it evaporates though

[mister md] 25/4/2023 20:39

First Republic bank -47% today, another leg down for the regionals ?

[mister md] 25/4/2023 20:24

Microsoft earnings today after close

[zcaprd7] 25/4/2023 19:35

Good, about time, I look forward to this being down 5% tomorrow morning... Ukraine and Russia on manoveurs, all sorts can happen over the next few week, none of it good.

[mister md] 25/4/2023 19:05

Complacency gone in the market ?

[waterloo01] 25/4/2023 17:54

4100 gone.
