RE: Why the crash?17 Jan 2023 20:09
Back when it sat between 200 & 230 for ages a move of £0.30 gave us a huge jump of circa 15%.
We have moved so fast to £3.50 that a £0.30 drop seems like a “crash” but in reality it is a 2.7% pull back when it met resistance at £3.50 which IIRC was the previous high after the fall in 2022. There was so much buying & selling st that point that it was bound to be choppy!
However, it did surprise me as I expect the afternoon session to push on past £3.60, alas the markets remind you they can change in an instant.
5.5 trading days until the meeting! I had a £4 guess and I’m sticking to it but whether it’s £3, £4 or whatever, the overarching goal here is that the meeting sets out another plan for the upcoming H1 23 & confirms the completion of a positive Q4 22.
That’s all I want to see, stability & planning. The rest will follow.
