Morning Faulky - it's impossible for me to trade currently - im 5 hours behind uk time so missing half of the trading day - the movements are there although completely erratic!
What's a 5 hour time difference to a hard core trader? lol. Enjoying the sun?
Hardup yes it's lovely here - watching the American news sometimes while here and you wouldn't know Covid exists - the uk it's just in your face all day every day!
The guy that owns this resort is very interesting - he lives on site with his family in multiple large houses that overlook the whole bay. He owns share in a USA listed company - they were worth 21 million in 2004 and the shareprice has 10 x since then and he still owns all his shares... That's a return!!
I can see Timothy Daltons house from my room as well - he refused to sell when they built the estate.
Pki is the American listed company.

Found an interesting read on the hours some of the "hard core traders" work!

US Futures are looking weak the latest ADP jobs report showed the US private sector massively undershot forecasts for hiring in July, adding around 330,000 jobs during the month compared to forecasts of a 695,000 rise
Mass testing , restrictions and extreme weather in China in only add more disruption global supply chain..
Also Wall Street set to pull back after S&P hits record high....

Dogs and cats living together.
Livestock - furlough is now the thorn in the side of employer's trying to find staff - there are mass staff shortages both in the UK and USA.
Amazing that people thought there would be mass unemployment when the fact is there's a shortage of staff now!! It only takes common sense to realise all the jobs that were there before Covid will be there after - maybe in different sectors but the jobs are there.
Once furlough ends the economy will be full steam ahead.
"Amazing that people thought there would be mass unemployment when the fact is there's a shortage of staff now!!"
Actually it's a shortage of "skilled" staff....So when furlough ends i should imagine unemployment will rise...
DYOR
45's is looking like tomorrow then after the divi drop
Once furlough ends ~20% of them could be unemployed within 6 months.
I'm talking facts here, not ifs and buts - there is currently a staff shortage which is a fact.
All the experts predicted the opposite and they were all wrong.
A shock to come at the end of furlough?

"I'm talking facts here, not ifs and buts - there is currently a staff shortage which is a fact."
"Skilled" staff shortage.

Darth trader was is your point exactly..re lloyds shares ..do you own any ?...have you shorted lloyds via spread betting ?if not why not ..you seem convinced that there is going to be some kind of melltdown...
Wrong Darth, there is a huge shortage of unskilled labour. This years peak is likely to be a crisis point for labour and is massively driving inflation in labour rates......
"Wrong Darth, there is a huge shortage of unskilled labour."
Also a huge skill shortage.....Lorry drivers, HVG, are only the tip of the iceberg.

"Wrong Darth, there is a huge shortage of unskilled labour. This years peak is likely to be a crisis point for labour and is massively driving inflation in labour rates......"
Exactly but there's no point arguing the point with people who can't see the wood for the trees....." unthinkable lows lol" all the way from 24p to 50p.... Then starts to talk about 12 years ago!! Insane.
My psychiatrist said wot seems to be the problem Mr " Brixton" I replied , I can't tucking well get on with anybody you basket .
Lloyds are bit slow .
Someones got sand in there budgie smugglers....

Southcoast there is a huge shortage of unskilled labour because for a large section of the population it pays for them not to work and procreate and take advantage of the generous benefits system made even more generous with the 20 pounds a week uplift in universal credit which the labour party are in favour of keeping
Im a nudist - anyway off to nelsons dockyard.
Enjoy your day.
