Damn Bhants......... I mean, I know you are 120 years old, so that must have been a hell of a long time ago that your granddad was still alive.

I can't remember what I said this morning, let alone what someone said that long ago.

The big question is, is this going to jump up today when the US opens, or drop.

Now take into account that all travel stocks are flying high today, the US is bright green in Futures, and the FTSE is green as well, you would think/assume that we will be just fine, and this will jump another 50p after the US opens......

Well..... We know what thinking does.!.....

I guess we will see at between 2.15pm and 3pm today.!

Bhants.

Unfortunately that won't help.

I bought one, but the string just keeps getting tied up.

We closed at $16.265. It is now, after hours, at $16.85

That's a 58.5c gain, or 41.5p gain in the morning like for like.

I just pray that tomorrow is a positive travel day after the killing I got today.

The only good news is that it has gone up 60c since our close currently, so anyone that bought in just before the closing bell is going to do really well tomorrow......

I GOT KILLED TODAY........ KILLED..........Every single stock I think I own was either Red, Bright Red, or Massacre Red.

It's actually quite incredible to watch really.

A 50p swing downwards when the rest of the US is doing well, even Royal has been tanked despite their incredible results.

It just shows you.!

So they smashed it, across all numbers, and future numbers.

AParky.

TUI, From 627 down to 539 within a month, and there isn't any pattern apart from downwards.!

It's actually more annoying that CCL, and that's difficult, as we all know.!

AParky.

Unfortunately, no, I didn't.

I've got caught up in the TUI decline, which has sucked all my spare money in.

And Royal are now over $130 pre-market.......

Damn, I wish I had bought them when they were $18.!

Interesting how every qtr Royal have a positive EPS, where as CCL doesn't.!

That might explain how Royal are doing so well, and CCL isn't LOL

Yep.

I phoned my mate up last night to wish him good luck.

Mr Bailey was very appreciative of my call

The good thing is that overnight CCL rebounded, and the US is now bright green, so maybe we won't have a bad day after all.!

Now come on.... it opened exactly 20.5p down.

I can't have been more accurate.!

LOL

We closed at $16.915

We were doing really well, until we wasn't.......

It's now $16.61

So a 30c drop, or 21p drop for us in the morning. Back down to the 11's again.!

BUT, the US is also now tanking, so I can see CCL getting caught up in the negative sentiment hype unfortunately as well, so tomorrow is not looking good at the moment, at all.!

I always start with a google search for Dow Futures.

That then brings up analyst views, and newspaper reviews, and NYSE views.

I don't exactly know my stuff, I just read what's new, that's all.

FED UPDATE........

Live Feed.....

BREAKING: Odds of a March Fed rate cut plummet from 47% to 31% after the Fed interest rate decision.

Less than 1 month ago, the odds of a March Fed interest rate cut were at 90%,

The base case now shows rate cuts beginning in May 2024.

It seems that markets feel like the Fed is backtracking in their policy outlook.

Particularly, the Fed said they "do not expect it will be appropriate” to cut “until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably" to 2%.

The "Fed pivot" is still far from certain.

Aangus.

I'm happy to drive where-ever.

I live in Hertfordshire, close to Watford.

I suggested Southampton, knowing a lot of people easily travel to Southampton for a cruise.!

But to put this in context for later. Currently we are over 20c up from our close.

We closed at (using Sun's logic, as for some unknown reason it actually happened today) at 4.39pm UK Time was our close, which was £12.025. The US at that time was $16.915

We are now at $17.11......

We will see where we are in 40 minutes.!!!!!!!!

Aangus.

No, my idea was a pub, otherwise trying to do a cruise with lots of people would never of happened.!

and I would have to pay for a P&O cruise unless I could get a comp through URComp'd or something like that.

I haven't paid for a cruise in 14 years.!

and no, I haven't pre-paid them either in the casino. I track how much I've won/lost.
