Dow got another spanking today so tomorrow will be brutal for the footsie. BP may test 310p unless oil recovers a few dollars per barrel. Great if your looking for an entry like me.

What price did you open your short, chump?

Don't disagree with that. However, he said they've cancelled their European season which is incorrect (and he knows it is). They may well cancel further months ahead but taking it a month at a time. That makes good business sense in my book. Play it by ear.

What a joker and a conman. They have NOT cancelled their European season at all. I've just checked on the P+0 website and sailings are cancelled until May 15th. Cancellations are being done on a month by month basis which seems sensible to me.

250p? Now you're just looking silly.

Longtermview, your a dreamer and a de-ramper. Won't go that low and you know that very well.

Message to all investors who are now underwater, DON'T PANIC!

You haven't lost your money as it's still a paper loss only. Would you panic sell your house if it's value dropped by 25%? No you wouldn't so why fret over a 4 month blip in the stock market. Life will return to something like normal and shares will recover also - the world depends on it. The world cannot continue with battered markets indefinitely, that's why if you look at the stock market long term it's trend is always up. Look at the ftse100 chart over the last 40 years and you'll see little tiny blips for 1987, 2000, 2008, 2016 and eventually there'll be a tiny blip for 2020 in a year or 2 time.

Lloyds is a behemoth in the banking industry and a key part of the economy. They have a strong balance sheet following the years after the financial crisis and have just cancelled the divi to protect itself further. Shares are all about sentiment and right now sentiment is cr*p. It'll turn once Covid19 is put to bed.

So, pick yourselves up, dust yourselves down and sit tight and wait for the recovery in a few months time. It'll come and when it does it'll be the mother of all recoveries with double digit growth figures for the economies most affected.

Relax.

Yup, this crisis makes the 2008 financial crisis look like a walk in the park.

Anyone investing under 30p who has the patience to wait it out, will do very well when the recovery comes. And come it will.

That's why I jumped off in the nick of time at 342p. I could see this coming.

Great trading share in this volatile mkt.

Personally waiting for 750p which we may see tomorrow if ftse has another shocker like today. Depends on Wall st tonight.

Carnage!!!

Was poised to buy at 28.6p but bottled it. Can see this at 22p if ftse has another shocker tomorrow.

Howwever, Llloyds in a stronger financial position now divi will be retained. And Govt would never allow it to fail so long term cannot go wrong. Just a case of finding as near the bottom as possible.

There's that much *****ing on here it's like being out with a bunch of bird's on a hen party

Out at 342p from 261p. Can see this dropping before weekend. If it does I'll be straight back in.

so basically should have stayed in previously and saved dealing costs

Struggling to break above 340p.

Nice profit. But, a bit hasty?

gone into auction

Won't see £3 again.

Pumped and dumped, just like Vast.

B*llocks

Up the creek, yep.

But, with a decent, credible plan to survive and come back.

Markets not often wrong. It's blue.
