Agree, Jtan. It's mind boggling how much control of the markets are in the hands of a very few.
BlackRock comes to mind, their aim of dominance over global pricing is truly frightening. There really is very little left of the so called 'free market' when it is controlled in such a manner.
Also, governments had a hand in the markets tanking, instead of calming their markets and citizens, they prefer to send them into panic mode and create a stampede.

Still would not travel there until they re-insert some common sense and realise no such thing as zero except pulse when you are dead.

jumped 68% in the last month!!!!

That's pretty nuts if you ask me and good luck to all those that hold that share.

Morning peoples!
bobbins, 100% agree about the stupidity of charging people to drop off, that is the most bizarre cr4p I have ever heard.
Just to compare, Switzerland charges for everything! Yet, Basel/Europort 20mins free parking for drop off and collection. Zurich, terminal drop off, 5 mins FOC.
When these countries do not charge, it is outrageous that LHR does, rip-off Britain at it's finest. Where's the Dom bloke when you need him?

Jtan, it will make up for the losses in THG that I dumped as that was going nowhere. But I have a better chance of contorting myself on your S1000rr than getting into a lambo any time soon, unless it's that pig ugly Urus thing.
No, I think a year's supply of Hobnobs will be in order...

Jtan, 193k shares, 117ish average.
Started with 40k in 2020, then just loaded more and more everytime it went down... Like a crack *****.

Jtan, thanks, didn't want to brag but I was over £40k down just three weeks ago on IAG so thought, fcuk it!

Oil said he quit this bb, so he might be happy, sitting in a quite dark room...

I'm up £37k so far, not selling yet. ...

Not until debt is cleared, who cares a paltry percentage divi when this has the potential of going up?
So far today this has gone up 3.5%+, in one day! If you got that a year as a divi would you be happy? Stuff the dividend, as long as this goes up.

Better!!

Calm down, wait until the yanks wake up and spoil the party...

FTX is a giant ponzi scheme, that Bankman-Fried wizard is Israeli, located in Israel. Try getting him extridited back to the US to face investigation or charges, will never happen.
Their website tells people to NOT make deposits, and over $5bn has been withdrawn, they have zero liquidity left. If it smells like fish, it's probably rotten.
This puts the nail in the coffin for crypto, now central governments will use that as an excuse to shut it down and roll out their own CDC. Biance bailed on talks with FTX.

Imagine all those that bought at the beginning of the year at near $60k!!!

Jtan, I agree about making money part, but I still think shorters are part of the game. Until they outlaw them (they won't) or make them pay huge CGT (they won't) this is the nature of the beast.

I think if we are really lucky we may get to the highs during 2020 covid period, about 220-230. Any higher I think we will have to wait until 2024.

Too late, just learnt the the jackpot was won by a single ticket holder... $2.04 billion FFS!!

bobbins, I noticed you have not been yourself since you let AC out of your basement. What you need is a Hobnob. Hear me out, they say a change sometimes will do you good...
Anyway, yes, agree although the rise is nice, must keep feet firmly planted.
I may just have to play the US Powerball as it is reaching the ungodly stupid sum of $2billion!!!
You know some redneck is going to win it all and blow it on a new pickup and hookers.

Casio, agree, hold onto them. They are very low and still 25-29% down since this time last year. Even lower when the markets panicked over 'omicron' last November.

You forgot to mention that it also went from 32970 (02/11) to 31790 (03/11) in one day, so over 1000 drop in one day...
