Im not sure about any of your comments GS with out further research but in the short term if the Fed hikes int rates tonight as expected its not good for stocks and it looks like its having an affect already..
At some point when Putin gives up ........ stocks and shares should start to go back up ( hopefully)
M&S has been heavily shorted for a while but now just 1.75% shorted with Marshalls upping its short on 25th April.
No shorts on ABF but like you say not been doing very well of late.
maybe just not exciting enough for the current weird market
Hi guys I agree with the sentiment on lGEN, as over the years its been one of my best all round shares but as you probably know me by now it doesn't do any harm to sell when its high and buy back lower for what i call free shares. ( or income)
This year has been particularly difficult and as trading is a significant part of my income and i don't have any employment income to add I tend to be cautious in the main and a little jittery and take profits where I can get them.
Gs, Tesla cant say that i entirely comfortable with Musks motives as he tends to manipulate the market for his own gains so will stay clear... Greggs yes I am just waiting for it to break out..... just too much "general" negative sentiment about right now for me to be confident in anything right now .
Andy its not a conspiracy theory. as a newbie I am guessing you haven't delved into technical analysis in any detail. Look up volume within trading and see how M&M'S manipulate the market. and by studying volume you can spot the differences and divergence of the market to see a more real picture
The drop today doesn't make sense from a technical point of view. If you look at the selling volume, it is relativity small. Too small for such a drop, this makes me think that the market makers are dropping this. Its either because they know good news is coming or they are trying to tempt buyers. As always time will tell....... but I have seen higher selling volume on lower down days, so something is amiss
Under the circumstances that's good then Gs. I hope Greggs breaks out for you.
I have no news except to say my sell of HSBC last Wednesday luckily was perfectly timed.
LGEN even though it dropped a lot today the buying volume indicator out weighed the selling volume . If that the case lgen should get back up to 260 again soon. I guess it depends on how the ftse opens in the morning
looks like a reasonable strategy GS........... Greggs done well today. up 4%..
Ibstock shot up today out of the blue 8.77% but not sure how long it will keep going good results though, good luck to holders.
Sold HSBC yesterday for small gain. Didn't get back in to Lloyds did you GS?
LEGN strategy ... Ok so yesterday I sold one batch of LGEN shares with a 7 pence per share profit. The other batch almost the same amount but bought at a different time with a higher cost of 2.78 inc costs I held for Ex divi . The money from first batch I've used by putting a limit buy into the broker at £2.60 P/S . which hasn't been triggered as yet. I am still pondering on the arithmetic as to whether long term how much profit i will make ( in total ) if the limit buy gets filled then the share goes back up to say 2.76 or and if it gets filled and drops to 2.55... I already know how much ill get if it does not get filled assuming the SP doesn't drop more than the divi amount..... Where is my Abacus lol
Looks like "the crowd" has gone of to play somewhere else so us long term holders can get some peace for a change!
Rolls-Royce Holdings plc (OTCMKTS:RYCEY – Get Rating) was upgraded by Zacks Investment Research from a “sell” rating to a “hold” rating in a report released on Thursday, Zacks.com reports.
I came out also. It spoked me too "it was about a Iraqi oil minister calls for establishing new oil company in Erbil
"Legislating the Iraqi oil and gas law is the best solution for solving all the problems."
In hindsight it was ok....... but that's trading
New chapter........... Nice find and exciting article and the last paragraph about MOU's very encouraging particularly with the US
"Outside the UK, Rolls-Royce SMR already has memoranda of understanding with companies in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Turkey and the US"
Magically up to 110 a few weeks ago on a whim. Then a concerted and orchestrated sell off by whom we don't know.
JP then puts this out and down it goes more. .......JP amongst other things are a Hedge Fund and Market Makers.
I would like to write a lot more but lets just say the whole thing stinks of manipulation to me.
