Savings during lock down is estimated at 17.5 billion a month. Lots of house moves put on hold. Lots of new kitchens to be bought. Lots of new car purchases.

In my opinion opening up with vaccines will see a sudden surge in economic activity.

I am thinking of investing in BP.
Reading various posts the dividend has been declared and the ex divi day is 18 of February. Have I got this wrong?

Are they expecting the dollar to fall?

BP sensitive to dollar movements,

A agree.

Checkout gov vaccine dashboard. https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/vaccinations

Daily vaccination numbers are increasing week on week. It seems the government is speeding up vaccinations while spinning the news to make people stay at home. Makes sense.

If this country my have restriction lifted early due to vaccination it would also make sense for Tourists boards to target us for adverts rather than Germans, Swedes etc. Another positive.

I have done ok with ITV.
Sold then rebought when it dipped from 114 to 109.
I think this company should return to 150.
Marketing should be one of the first industries to return. Its production arm should be seeing increasing demand as lots of pent up demand because of Covid. Rapid roll out of vaccinations will mean production houses here opening up before Europe. Netflix increasing spend in UK..

Just froth, I hear someone say,.

I am seeing it with other shares,

I think the market is looking for guidance. Hoping the drops in covid numbers with the vaccine roll out will give everything a kick.

You fight a religion using hyocrysuis.

All these presenters, journalists, celebs, business leaders flying on private jets lecturing the world about global warming. That is just one example.

Ban journalists from flying on private jets, is a start.

Never happen. They like their luxury lifestyle. Ok with poor paying through the nose for energy. BP has done more for poor people than these hypocrites ever will.

The entire green and environmentalist movement is a bunch of sanctimonious, moralizing white supremacists. These fools have created a new religion. They care about the poor, the working class, the environment, blacks, gays , Muslims.
All so they can feel good about them selves. Nothing you can do will ever please them.

They cry when a tree is set on fire in the Amazon. Not a peep when entire forest are ripped up in Europe and America to burn in power stations for energy. The only thing they care about is themselves.

Israel's vaccination rollout shows stunningly successful results

Market is waiting for some good news to point it in the right direction.

1000s of strategies exists when it comes to shares.
Find a rising share, or one you believe is rising. By when it dips and sell when it rises. Keep repeating.
Find a share that correlates closely with the FTSE 100. When it dips buy. Sell when it rises. Again keep repeating.

Me, too much effort.

Proof the Pfizer Covid vaccine works in the real world? Israeli healthcare group says coronavirus infections have PLUNGED by at least 60% among vaccinated over-60s

I think a buying opportunity. Sadly I have no funds.

Looking at Biden and the entire west the only solution they have is to print money which should be positive for minerals.

Will these mines start operating this year or are they still a bit further out,

Looking at the web site I was trying to finds dates for these mines to start operating. Anyone has an idea?
