I Sold my BP day 1 at 8am for £5.06

yesterday I bought IAG at ~£3.67and more Lgen to lock in a nice 8.7% div.

That's all I did. I was a bit lucky in a way as I sold a lot of IAG at £4.46 before results day, so got them all back a lot cheaper :-)

Lazy life plan "Having said that - the BIGGEST issue in this world is GREED and POWER."

Correct so let me go back to the bible.

"the Old Testament has no archbishops, no monks, no nuns, no popes, no cardinals, no mitres, no cathedrals, no vestments, no incense processions, no rosaries, no monasteries, no convents." :-)

Now lets look at man made fake Christian's:

Centuries after Jesus, the church became:

- hierarchical

- political

- wealthy

- ceremonial

- institutional

- full of titles and ranks

This is when we get:

- bishops as rulers

- archbishops

- cardinals

- the Pope as a monarch

- monks and monasteries

- nuns and convents

- robes, mitres, staffs, thrones

- church courts

- canon law

None of this is in the Bible and NONE of it is Christian.

Lazy life plan "Christianity are all bonkers – it’s the same story told from different view points ; placing different people at the centre of importance with a daft set of rules of control"

Christianity is complex, but God sent Jesus to give us no rules, he free us(not from law though) . That's the whole point in being a Christian. you are the church.

The "Catholic Church" is odd ball extreme not sure how they can be called Christians imo.

They worship false idols like Muslims and Hindu's, Buddhists etc. What they say is NOT in the BIBLE ! My dad used to say "Satans church" and how can we argue when they rape young boys throughout time !!!

Most region are new and man made vs the Bible and most worship false idols or a man (ie the Pope)!

These people are not Christians neither are many fake Christian faiths.

HL has a nice SIPP platform and their trading prices dropped to £6.95 this month.

Issue is the new very high stocks and shares ISA fee's ! will loose them many clients.

By 2060 which is not far away (35 years) the UK White British person will be a minority !! by 2100 White British will be down at 33%

The UK and this way of life is over in one generation.

That's just maths and facts where the UK is heading. Then see the laws change !

9.4 million incidents of crime in the UK were reported in the last year and you say people are decent !

add another 3 million unreported.

That's 33k crimes a day or one every 3 seconds !

UK is soft on crime, and a lot of people are not decent anymore. we have a lot of hate talk on here as an example to each other.

Data protection and anti‑discrimination rules rule out who is causing these 12 million crimes ? "

Thing is Iranian people are happy the supreme leader is dead they have been wating 36 years for this.

Women were like animals and treated no better than a beaten one and have to cover up.

No wonder they are happy.

"Joy took over the streets of London on Sunday, as Iranians celebrated the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei"

So is this a bad thing really ?

Iran broke the laws and massacred thousands of Iranian civilians, can you turn a blind eye to this ?

The Woke left people seem to want to ?

Not sure what the Greens want to see, more Iranian civilians murdered day on day !!

Our gov not letting USA aircraft land on day 1 was unforgivable imo

"Charting is worthless for events like this."

I disagree, hence it bounced off 10450 on the nose as it was a key point, now can it hold.

Ok did not hold 10450, so 10300 maybe over the next day or 2. S&P 500 futures are bad so 2.30 is key as normal.

AS I type it did bounce back over 10450 ! lets hope thats it. 10462 :-) please hold

10450 is key today see if we can hold, it just went under but is trying and bounced off it.

Badland "well the same reason why you think that above."

I don't think it i am watching it do it. FTSE 10480 now still dropping.

People will just keep selling till we get a 5% FTSE drop.

Badland "72p drop seems a bit wild to put it down to profit taking."

why do you thing that ? , there people who sold on open are ££ in then we have a spiral effect down maybe for weeks, until people want back in.

No ones day trading long that's for sure. will people who want to flush money down the toilet do i guess.

I would say over a few days we are due a FTSE 5% drop so 10260 we are still 10500 that's on no really bad news.

"the stock market used to be stable for blue chip companies"

NOT in wars !

Mark_rs might drop another 60p tomorrow. might drop 30% in a month if one of the 2 big USA aircraft carriers get hit that = WW3.

People want to take profit and have less short term risk.

If you sold at 8am you would have locked in £13.50 now it's £12.97.

Manipulation !! Nope.

It's called taking profits & panic selling after a record profit year for many investors. we are in this for a few months maybe a year or 2.

People take profit. nothing to do with manipulation.

Short term traders sell today buy cheaper tomorrow/next week and cannot deal with a on paper loss.

Or you hold for 2/3 years wait it out which is ok if you don't have to draw on the funds.

No one cares now what you buy and when.

Buy and hold or buy and cry, your choice.

Investerintheknow Personal abuse I get really is about protecting their ego/face on here, not their argument.

I should see a personal attack/abuse as a signal to disengage really, because at that point I have already won the argument.

So i'll take my own advice and stop reacting I think to fake people who cannot back up any thing.

Jimbo27 "you said RR had 3.5% for 2026

when are you going to admit you're wrong?"

Did I ? where? I said £20 by 2028 which is 15% PA ! and I was happy to hold for that.

Investerintheknow I feel fine :-) , Svend should be embarrassed imo with that £15 punt and now won't admit he was way way out.

It's black and white, he said £15 it's not £15. It's really that simple if you can read and get past the Ai predictions he posts.
