Just seen Oxo. Well done mate. Let's hope it's back up to 650 range and the Divi keeps coming.

Wids it does amaze me the size of the us budget deficit. The fact it's not seen as a problem is remarkable. It's pribaybly because they are the most attractive horse in the glue factory. At least they have growth unlike the EU which has the same debt issue, over regulation, no growth and a barking mad energy policy. The US might be bad saddled with unpayable debts but compared to the EU it's the garden of Eden. If it's a question of holding dollars or euros the dollar is still a lesser evil.

Snige your mentality of why bigger is better is why the EU is such a disaster. If you made cheeses you'd want to make 100ft long brie even though they'd taste rank.

Lti you are being too generous. He's not simplistic but a simpleton.

RMR exactly. No one has a clue what PD rates would be under stress. EY and their Ilk make lots of money selling snake oil pretending they know the answer when they manifestly don't.

The mushroom capital is merely money buried in the ground. The leverage ratio already provided more than sufficient capital, the RWA pillar 1 and 2 bs is frankly pseudo science.

The stress test are frankly a joke. There is not a uniform method between banks. And anyway they are extrapolation of models built using historic data. Frankly it's an embarrassment the BoE puts any store on the stress tests at all. The only capital ratio worthy of mention is the leverage ratio, the rest is just a mediocre A level stats project. To add further capital buffers to the already excessive requirements is frankly a joke, but given I'm well aquatinted with the idiots who fill up the BoE doing nothing it's no great surprise.

Tom exactly it's good news and a warning shot to Brussels to not play games endlessly. It means it can't grind on to 2023 etc. The market needs and loves a bit of volatility.

I think it's more of a pause Bruce these things never go straight lines. Pound to euro will be trading 1.2 to 1.3 range I reckon. Ms Lagarde that utterly evil globalist ppl hater is going to have to print print print.

Pat he has gone rather quiet. He claimed he opened the largest short in history at 140. I don't think he actually shirts and posts there using multiple IDs. It's a bit silly really.

I nothing against your son in law other than I disagree with his politics. Those ppl he talks to there are clueless and out of touch. The labour party needs to stop hating the working poor. I see no repentance on that front. Thornberrys comment summed up how they see their own supoorters, if you think your own voters are rascist scum they won't win.

Mexican Bruce. No wonder he's in favour of open borders. He's thinking of wife number 4 once the crowd feet set in to number 3.

I always liked flint. She was smoking hot when younger but beyond that talked sense. Thornberry taking legal action is pathetic.

Why is she starting legal action it's exactly the sort of thing she would say? Her barely concealed contempt for everyone not living in Islington is palpable.

Where is he?

Good points livestock.

2227 I'm waiting for 80p to 85p then I'm out.

Pinto just imagine the secret diary of Corbyn. The Dianne Abbot chapters would be truly disturbing!

Bronco I don't agree with your politics but it takes a grown up to change their allegiance. I salute you for doing the right thing for your country. You may go back to labour and that's your choice but you had the great sense not to put a Marxist in number 10.
