Nice little bounce over the past week thanks to our friends in Europe. I think this isn’t tradable anymore - barring another Euro F up, which won’t happen. It’s a boring grind up to 12 squid - let’s all have a siesta. GLA

I did have a little sell off on Friday fearing Europe would implode on some issue or another. However its the last sentence here for me which Buccaneering Boris will probably make his reopening of the economy (he cant wait!) decisions based on...

"For example, a study by the University of Oxford yesterday, found a nine-fold and 7.6-fold reduction in antibodies produced after the AstraZeneca jab and Pfizer jab, respectively, against the South African strain.
But experts say even if the current vaccines are weaker, they will still protect against severe disease or death by Covid".

Good luck guys - could be a bumpy week.

Crazy tight trading range! Was hoping for 960 - 1060!

Where do those 'It'll be 50p soon' people go in weeks like this!? They don't have the courage of their convictions...'0-))))

Everyone's drowning in debt - that's the way forward for a while - it's kinda irrelevant! :))

Ha ha Charlie that’s quite naive my friend! You have to think of shares like the theory of relativity- time is the big warping factor. Facts are of little concern.

Cruise ships different ball game.

Shake the room!

What’s not to like?

Looking good.

We’ve called a bottom a bottom here.

Any of you guys looked at Rolls Royce - been watching for a while - managed to get a few this morning as it dipped under 90.
Only too aware of their plight - strong balance though. Even riskier than here possibly!!

Managed to buy yesterday on another platform!
Here's the response from Share Center in case you guys suffer the same though another broker:

'After the UK left the EU on 31/12/2020 it affected a regulation that Easyjet have regarding distribution of its shares. The company only allows 49.5% of its shares to be owned by Non-EU residents (this now includes the UK) and as such we are already above that threshold and for the time being are unable to allow customers to purchase shares through us. Unfortunately, I am unable to comment on the workings of other brokers but for now we cannot purchase Easyjet shares and there is no timescale we have been advised of when we will be able to again.'

His Guys,
Who can recommend another platform - I like to buy and sell these - share centre won't let me buy at the moment -saying they are 49% European owned (Brexit thing) - so they won't let me trade! I don't really understand - are you guys able to trade and if so who are you using please?

Been told by Share Center/ Interactive Investor that can’t buy shares due to a Brexit issue over EZJ ownership! Can only sell at the moment - anyone else heard of this?

Not even I the eternal optimist thought it would hang on to 800 - I was all geared up for a buy at 756 support or even next one down! Think it may drift tomorrow, hold your horses!

If there is one thing I’ve learnt in 30 years of investing is that the doom mongers have their 15 mins of fame, but optimists and clear thinkers make the most money. This is an opportunity if you can play it right. People who like to pop up with doomsday scenarios do so because that is their bent not through any particular logic. GLA.

This just gets better for a longish term investor.

Will it crack today when the Dow opens?

Good lord - your post is a joke right?
