That's it - time for the Friday Fun Slide. Like a really sh%%ty ride at The Phoenix Club family day.

(Don't mention Sammy The Snake).

Maybe we'll see some blue at close now Mr. Market has finished his doom and gloom week. Vol v.low. Maybe ii's and their 'bots will just head for the beach and DW40 jacuzzi and wait for monday to start re-buying. Might be surprised this afternoon. gla

Good question for me. I have always tried to buy shares in companies that would benefit from the economic times.
I have failed consistantly - and a Mr. Buffett, i only read yesterday had something to say which rings true for me (!).
Apparantly its best not to try to predict the economy, int rates etc. Just try to pick stocks which are making money, have good management have a product/s in demand and ok margins. I'm going to try this for now on. IAG seems alright and will be better when staffing is sorted, maybe next year-ish. We'll see. Nothing to lose following Warren Buffetts advice- i might even break even after all. GL

Oh joy ! Lowball sp to start the day. Should end up a shade of blue if the Gods are good to us

Opposite is true mostly.

Watching Bargain Brits in the Sun. It won't be a riverside house near Weybridge with my investing record- but a scruffy caravan not requiring heating an hour from the sea and all that sunshine...cheap Tizer sold by the yard.. Hmmmmm

AIM= Most companies to my mind see more dilutions than a homeopathy roadshow, more legal actions than Wagatha Christie and Rumpole of the Bailey put together and will suck more money out of long term investors than any black hole Stephen Hawkins could imagine.
I've had pennies left over on many occasions with AIM. After VOG I needed a frontal lobotomy to restore my common sense.

Most likely we tanked in the afternoon along with the ftse. Doesn't feel so personal.

Those so called inflation hedges gold and oil are down strangely Everything on my watchlist bar Kodal minerals was up- only 26 trades there mind.

All is lost-Robert Redford. Always keep two sat phones well waterproofed in separate places on board esp. above waterline. Specsavers 20/20 vision. Night night all

Plain old Vichy water for dinner it is then

Some easy profit taking as well as the ftse not improving.

Time for a Robert Redford film

Our 2000 friend has added a bit on to most of their trades. In a hurry to see this rise and rise.

Could be a Babycham for dinner if we finish at 134.

Vichy ? Nice water. Good mixer with Tizer or Glenburgie 22 yr old. Cured my rheumatism

Good point bobbins2. We'd think many companies would be changing hands. My guess is that because depression times are also scary times, maybe vultures are too wary. A bit like a vulture spotting a tasty carcass on a busy motorway. My guess is that companies hold on to their assets in weak times in case the weak times get worse of go on for longer ( collateral). I've got covid today and this will be a grand rabbit hole to disappear into today !!

Looking better here. Mon morn a good barometer for further falls. Russia parade/ Mr. Putin speech could be 'interesting' so Mr. Markets may be easily spooked currently. I was amazed to see IAG at the very top of the losers boards on Fri. How many times has that ever happened. 9/11.

Blue finish hopefully. Interesting week ahead. Laying off the unpasturised french cheese i'm getting funny dreams

Wow. I really expected double digit loses today what with the US markets dragging after the scary (!!) rate rise ultra low to now crazily low.
Looking (like most here) for a return to the '40's next week no poor Mr. Market has had his tizzy.

A good warm w'end to all

Paranoia Blue who as a self proclaimed vicar and former oil platform superintendant exhorted the words "Not long now" and "Nearly there" for the best part of 10 years. I lost half my dough here listening to this educated chap.
No rampety ramp chequebook and pen for that numpty.
Sorry to see this suspended after so many promises. The only winners were the bosses imo.GLA

Just looking in and the sp is what it was a few hours ago. Sp waiting for U.S. Nearing 2pm this is already dropping again.

Headphones on and Pet Shop Boys on the go.

Bless your cotton, wool, polyamide, elastane and mohair bobbins2

Your're right- a trip to the G.P is in order. As for Pesto Moomintowel- ain't got nuffink on me. Well, maybe a better shrink...
A Biggles lookalike competition down at the Nearly There Arms tomorrow night. Some reckon we'll see the 150's good and proper next week when the roily boily market settles it's int rate flatulence.
I bid you a fine weekend one and all.

Friday= Up a few % until 1pm then Lord knows.

Quiche from Markies
or Coffee mate mixed with complan and some pieces of chopped onion wrapped in bacofoil and dropped in a pre-heated toaster.

A grand start Campers. High-de High !

It woz that last Topic wot took me over the edge

Oh well, we were doing good until int rate time fell upon us again.
Upward trajectory here since this mornings fall. May even see 147 if the tides right. Though it looks as though we are being held in a 146 channel by those 'bots until int rate decisions are absorbed by Mr. Market. GLA

Black Tower, Topic AND Lion Bars on me.

This share is ripe for a re-tread. Good vol and a sustained rise today. If the wider market is OK we should see a reach for 155 min.
Good evening all.
