Can things get any worse?
My mainstream "safe" investments have been hammered like never before.
Holiday cancelled and no sign of being able to get away in this summer.
No sport on tv so having to talk to the missus as a last resort and blow me. she tells me she's lost her job in Woolworths!

Yup Terrier 54, blown their brains out!
Haven't you been saying similar about anyone who sold from 11p down?
I agree the current price seems to be a nonsense, but where is the update? No wonder people are nervous.
Worth a punt now but not a stack and hold, just a punt imo.

So less than 2000 confirmed cases in the UK and less than 100 deaths, all had underlying conditions ..........Survivors described it as a dry cough and a bad day or two of feeling unwell.

Bring on the red bus promise bojo

Machine off and no more from me.

geezer, Mick asked me what my current thoughts were re C19 , had they changed? No

You asked me four specific Qs and I gave the answers.

Yes I am lucky but that doesn't mean I have no sympathy for others. I just think the cure that has been set up is worse than the cause at the moment. Time will tell.
Cheers you grumpy old sod. :))

No the last on died 10 years ago aged 94, I am her son ,work it out
No currently recovering from bog standard flu though.
No I am a drain on the UK's finances taking the State Pension. ( I may have contributed in 45 years of paying Income tax and NI to those who were unable to, or couldn't be bothered to, work though)
No neither do I waste it or overstock.

_This results in robust Health funding etc

Short answer, yes.
The measures being announced are to protect the Health Services and their workers as a result of Worldwide under funding, and rightly so. However the reaction of the Government and their missives are promoting panic and in some cases hysteria amongst the public and Stock markets.
The draconion measures taken by one government now has to be followed by all in case they can be singled out.
Tens of thousands of vulnerable people die annually of that year.s flu' virus without comment. The damage this over reaction to a new threat is out of proportion with the damage they are causing to soundly run businesses.
The only saving grace is that those countries that can afford it have robust Health Services and help out those that cannot. It will cost far less than this debacle

Or, when could there be a better time to bury bad news?
It won't be the stand out news that's for sure.
All the bluster has died off, gone very quiet and a court hearing cancelled.
On the other hand bubbles could be right. Shirley Zaza would not bow out without a word to SHs.
Binary, so nothings changed,

This whole affair has been poorly managed. That's what happens when you vote for monkeys to run your country.
They are glory seekers in it for themselves. All they can do now is leave it to the brains of, and expertise of, the Civil Servants to dig them out of this hole ( those than haven't been sacked that is)
The only saving grace is that Corbyn, Dabbot and that lot aren't testing their brains to reach a decision.
Wonder what Cummings input is now? Minimal I suspect.

Looking at those late reported trades from yesterday I would say waiting for a drop may be waving the boat bye bye.

jmo

Ivy, that sums this up very well. As you say, hopefully the arbitrators are fully aware of this practice.

£11.2m raised to go forward with. Confidence growing.

CF73 if that is so why are there so many letters of protestation?

I have 3.5m shares here, peanuts to many but enough as far as I am concerned so do have an interest in a decent outcome.

I don't however see anything in Zaza's interview that seems like a victory speech. Given the time he couldn't ( didn't ) speak to anyone why start now? What's wrong?

I have not been following this much recently but,
This is arbitration we are talking about so any decision is binding on both parties ?
Why are we open to losing some of the block? Is this in the arb? If so why?
Why are there so many letters flying about re the actions of the incumbent Gov. and the upcoming elections? The arb process is separate to all this.
They seem to point to attempted rescue mission by outside heavyweight influence imo, I do hope I am wrong and this is not going to continue for years more.

Free and ODR, it does seem to me that Zaza is fighting a bit of a rearguard action here against a somewhat dubious Gov.
We can only hope that because it's arbitration and not a internal (Georgian) court case that it goes in our favour.
The bit that worries me most is why do frr seem acceptable to giving ground, there is as always a lot we don't know?

Many thanks, as ever, to our slooofs, old and new(er). Where would we be without them?

And while I am in one of those moods:-

Top news
No. 1 Boris is gonna be a daddy.
2. Priti massive ar*se is a bully (apparently)
3. Flu

HUGE news pushes latest panic off it's peg, ooops

:))

Thanks Cogs but I know the risks with equities, will sit this out just like all the other panics before.

One things for sure there's gonna be a packet made by the City boys with this.

Coggy I'm a serial washer of hands, if it's something I disagree with.

haha

PS nearly 20k this ****** has cost me this week and there won't be a speedy recovery, one week of panic, then months/years to recover.
Then there's AIM!!

You gotta laugh you know, one of those RR laughs. :))

Sorry edit.
Hard nosed Editors whose job it is to SELL the news to the Snowflakes

Mick, Corona Virus won't even make the news in a couple of months, it's no worse than the average annual flu outbreak.
Blown out of all proportion by the Slow news days and the Snowflake Editors.
As for the effect on the world economy...., well that's what happens to Stock Markets when computer programmes run the World and nobody has any common sense any more.
Governments have to protect their Health Services hence the advice given out, which is basically if you don't feel well stay at home and don't spread it.
So what's new?
