Our latest Investing Matters Podcast episode with QuotedData's Edward Marten has just been released. Listen here.
On NIM’s there appears to be a nice slide showing how they are generated in the presentation accompanying the numbers. The unexplained tax charge rise is odd but I’m shore will be explained. The numbers are fine imo what may be an issue is the outflow given the febrile environment we currently live as far. business facing lenders are concerned particularly in the US. Should bounce, hopefully
Credit Suisse is a crock of sh2t and has been for years unlike Lloy which is over capitalised and tightly managed. We grasped the nettle back in 2008/ 9 as Brussels was screaming for us to take action. At the same time the ECB opted for kicking the can down the road do we still have the proverbial hitting the fan to come for a few “big “ names over there.
It’s a success that we have managed to do as well as we have given the roadblocks the EU has put up since our leaving, to teach us a lesson and to discourage anyone else from having similar ideas. Versadker has admitted as much and who can remember the vitriol spouted by Verhofstsd? Sure the govt needs to do more but we’ll manage and will likely prove the IMF wrong once more. Odd that that the tens of thousands of “asylum” seekers that have risked life and limb and paid handsomely to get here think the UK is better than the EU as do 5million Europeans who have decided to stay put.
This is being touted by the Leftie Resolution Foundation As a way of addressing the possibility that 750000 people in this country may have savings of £5000 or less.
I have mentioned this before. Imo the supermarkets have been very quick to put up prices but very very slow to drop them back down. Sainsbury can waffle about Christmas but the reality is, that they enjoyed fat margins as price competition between themselves and others took a back seat. This was also apparent on the forecourts where pricing behaviour was little short of racketeering. The public has and still is being ripped off by the supermarket chains.
The NHS is and always been there for those that genuinely need it. Sure occasionally a mistake is made or someone falls through the cracks to be picked by MSM “researchers” to be trotted out on “news” bulletins with a heavy dose politically motivated spin. The biggest problem facing the NHS is screening those that genuinely need it from the vast majority of “entitled” wasters who clog up every A&E in the land. Beds wise, securing more in care homes is the right short term solution no matter what that plonker Streeting says
Oh dear . I am not “deramping” I have held and still do a number of stocks where market naive management
Have sat on their hands only to watch their company destroyed, yesterdays price action was the scent of rotting flesh to flies. News flow is the only way to attract more institutional money. Deramping lol !
Unless we get clear communication from management we’ll be in the hands of the flippers and chancers
The spike was probably caused by short covering and if management sit on their hands shorting will continue to drive the price lower making fund raising if needed increasingly problematic without serious dilution. This happens time and again with AIM stocks. Shortest couldn’t give a toss about the company or its lead products. The current sp should be a wake up call to management and it’s advisors
