'no eyes watching as majority of price sensitive works under the cover of night'

How the f**k do you know that price sensitive work is being done at night when nobody can see it? Why not claim that naked virgins are doing oil dances at midnight when there is no moon.

kenny,

You may be correct but people may have got used to consuming alcohol away from pubs and got poorer - will they want to pay £4 for a pint when they can spend a third of the price in a supermarket?

'Lets have full truth, not half truths'

POO has dropped by 50 percent in 6 weeks - why omit that inconvenient truth?

C7,

I grew up in ZA and used to spend a few months a year in Cape Town with my Dad until he passed away. Their almost non-existant halth care system will not be able to cope; too many live in informal housing without flowing water, electricity or sewage; too few have regular employment and there has been a growing feeling of xenophobia over the last decade focussed on Africans from other countries.

All in, it is the perfect recipe for complete disaster; especially when coupled with the highest levels of diagnosed and undiagnosed HIV infections known in the world. There is also the problem of XDRTB.

To make matters even worse, Charities often fulfill the role of the state and they are often funded by wealthier wesrern donors. There is a saying 'charity starts at home' - I will not be making any of my regular donations to South African charities until COVID has passed and I have been able to work out the financial damage I have sustained.

If we are facing bleak and uncertain time in the UK then the near future in ZA can only be considered as apocalyptical.

kenny100,

That is what the 'fire-axe' is for.

Has been published (this afternoon?):

Near record low share price... Rampers how about in these difficult times you focus on something more important than ramping stock?

And the marmite jar is dark shaded glass so harder to see the notes... When the old bill ask why you were sleeping with an axe under your bed tell them it was a fire-axe, not a dangerous weapon being kept in case someone tried to steal your food.

What can be said?

Tomorrow is Boris's 100 day:

Times are so tough I have stopped drinking, smoking and taking recreational drugs... Go to keep as far away from the NHS as possible...

Unfortunately I did not get to the bank to withdraw new notes but it is worth keeping a cash stash at the moment in case the banks networks drop (so many people working from home / kids off school playing online games is going to stress test the networks like never before - Netflicks is no longer streaming in HD).

Think COVID is bad - the $ is likely to come under threat; if so things will get ugly very fast:

Twice the RDA of chloroquine can be deadly - not nice.

LSE have stopped reporting trades after the US Markets open - they say it is because of the sheer volume of data being fed into their systems (others say they are trying to get people to pay for level 2 access).

London Stock Exchange is still reporting the trades, albeit witha 15 minute delay.

Enter your assumptions and calculate the deaths - I get scary umbers:

Any reversal will not last - the economy is in more trouble than most understand; our trading partners are in a worse state and the EU internal market has collapsed. Manufacturing has basically ended and we are probably going to end up with an unemployment rate of around 20%. Commercial properties are imploding and the massive housing bubble will burst.

If anyone does not understand quite how bad the next year is going then they do not deserve to have money to invest as they are just going to spaff it against the wall. Bleak times but there will be opportunities for those who moved into cash fast enough, especially if they have been able to liquidate property positions.
