What i don't get with this covid bull crap is why don't we get to see the actual facts about the 200 deaths? , a breakdown to why each and every one of them died. Im sure this would uncover the fact the virus has actually had little influence (i.e car crash , organ failure or just self inflicted bad health ).
As for the SP I'm in the Red but it is holding up marginally well compared to the significant drops we saw the last time we were at this level. The UK side of business is currently operating at 52% so thankfully whatever happens over here won't have too much impact on perferformance like previously mentioned.
All they're talking about all day long on sky news is COVID, no wonder the markets here are so bad.
At least in the US the dow and Nas bounce back well, and maintain their gains.
Their media do not sensationalise this nonsense all the time.
Was just reviewing the same. NEX SP has throughout the pandemic reacted disproportionately to the U.K. situation. Makes little sense but is what it is.
It is rather ironic that nex sp falls as Morocco (an important part of Alsa) is banning flights from the UK because the incidence rate there is 1/10 of that here.
The rate in US and Spain are also low or dropping so unless we are just ahead of the curve of another wave then nex's main markets (with the exception of the UK) are well set to recover.
Keep upbeat Jtan :-) Just remember that a lot of NEX holders were in prior to the pandemic. However tricky it’s feeling right now, they are probably envious of your holding, even if it is redder than a vicars face at a strip club.
Just picked up 1383 shares cheap cheao cheap till tomorrow lol
I agree. But also I think it’s a terrible market to try to apply intelligent timing on trades within. Technical analysis, macro economics etc is being completely overshadowed right now by covid, especially on stocks with particular exposure (travel, leisure, certain retail etc). It’s just my view that if you believe that the pandemic will fizzle out, worrying about volatile share prices, within the life of the pandemic, is actually pretty pointless. Just ignore the paper losses for now. The biggest winners will be those that don’t try to trade in and out (unless exceptionally fortunate), but those that just recognise the buying opportunity, buy, and hold. In a few years I suspect many put off by the volatility and sat in broad index funds, and those that attempted to trade regularly, will be in a similar boat; with returns some way below simple targeted buying of shares in obviously depressed (covid impacted) sectors.
Problem is that as long as the media ramp on about b---y covid, the markets will continue to be volatile.
This debate was in July 2020 after the initial crash. All I’m saying is he was wrong and missed the boat. It can happen to anyone. The other thing I would say (a personal view) is that all this debate about a 20% loss here or a drop there is actually irrelevant, within such a volatile market. The pandemic is almost certainly presenting a once in a lifetime buying opportunity whether you time the exact bottom or otherwise. You can try to time the buys to perfection and you may miss out completely. If you don’t need the money in the next couple of years I think you are likely to win here either way, whether you buy at 150, 200 or 250. That’s my view and like anyone’s it could be wrong. But I suspect not.
Check the chart in shows Mar 2020,..84p.
I remember that day well it touched 68p intraday or there abouts as I tried to buy but there was only a small amount of shares available to buy, so invested elsewhere as it was the nadir for many shares
