Bloomberg Economics

@economics

A measure of underlying US inflation cooled in April for just the first time in six months, indicating price pressures are abating only gradually and supporting the Federal Reserve’s intent to keep interest rates higher for longer.

SC...the current difficulty is with good amounts of dividend money coming in from various shares is what level to re invest ....ive never used DRIP....LLoyds as an example we were able to add shares as recently as Jan & Feb in the low 40's......gl

...the last 6-9 mths have been very good for investors fellow dip buyers in 2023 v happy ATM...even the beleaguered telecoms VOD ,BT ...trying hard to join in........but as you say we've all been here before...plenty of rollercoaster days ahead gl tfe.

MPC vote 7-2 to remain at current level

"Sweden has taken the bold move of cutting interest rates, surprising some analysts and marking a new phase in global monetary policy that could accelerate economic expansion or return countries including the U.S. to a more cautious approach.

The Riksbank moved Thursday morning to slash its base interest rate from 4% to 3.75%, following other small European countries including Switzerland and Hungary in declaring the worst was over in the battle with inflation. ".......................................The ECB will possibly be next the 6th of june imo...gla

LTI o/t...my biggest conundrum atm is my telecom positions Vodaphone avg (73p ish ) & BT (112 ish)....i know from your posts you also have a position in both....obviously we will know a lot more about vodafone on/after the 14th may....and the BT landline case is one of the situations hanging over BT.......my prob is they look cheap to me and im not adding anymore atm but am sorely tempted lol.... gl lti.

I totally Agree with you LTI... but ive been saying for a long time i would i would buy low forties and below and make my first sale @ 54p...im a bit of a stickler for sticking to my plan...but i was determined to get the final dividend...it wasnt a large sale ....what your saying is very logical.....gl & atb.

.....first sale in a long time....like others on here added plenty in the low 40's.....was 41p-54p trading range for many months......still got a large shareholding and glad i got the final dividend on them all.....happy to be invested here with a good average.....gla..& well done LTH'S..
