35 and still single with a single digit holding? (I won't flatter you by calling it a Portfolio). Explains it all.

Shame fpr all you incels that all the women are taken up by the newcomers...

Rookie by knowledge and experience, Kookie in the mind. I've been in more countries with corruption than you've had hot dinners.

Tell me... how do GS actually plan and execute this? Is there a Committee that decides on this, and sends instructions down to the Analysts and Traders?

And what is your age and Portfolio size? I don't need to ask if you've ever been near a proper job in a Financial Institution. I know the answer to that one.

Sitting in your mother's bedroom and taking in all the conspiracy theories and bigot loser rac-ist websites doesn't count as work experience. Try getting out and meeting some women and get yourself laid. It'll be good therapy. ;-)

Just shy of 212 suddenly.

Absolutely spot on, sasa. A man who knows what he is talking about.

These people who talk about anyone manipulating sp movements have absolutely no idea how the City works (Chinese walls, and all that).

They're just gamblers who try to find excuses for their losses. Like racecourse punters blaming "them" - Trainers, Jockeys, Owners, Racecourse Authorities. Anyone who will make them feel better.

And giant lizards rule the world through the wef. Yeah right.

Toeskneesandelbows.. don't be paranoid. Share manipulation is a criminal offence. And yes, the Americans did land on the moon, and Elvis is no longer in the room.

Thanks for confirming the stereotype, Cookie. Fought as much mate, see you down the pub after the footie punch-up.

The trouble with your kind is the lack of education ("I've been paying my stamps since I was 16").

Failures, always looking for reasons why you haven't made it in life.

Losers. 'Nuff said.

Legal. Illegal. It's all a fig leaf with your sort.

Apart from the accident of birth in (I assume) a British hospital, you have no more right to be British than any of them. You have had no hand in any of the Country's historic achievements.

Send us photos from the front line. Or are you only a keyboard warrior?

Nut an yahoo says it's only the start. I believe him. He ain't going to stop until the job is done, as he sees it. With Trump there to back him up, he won't get a better chance.

Of course our local idiots are jumping up and down on their leash to get involved in the punch up. Which again is none of our business.

After your thick poisonous anti-immigrant rant and your swivel eyed talk of manipulation, I know exactly how seriously to take you.

I've got you figured out as a hooded incel sitting in your mother's bedroom picking up all sorts of trash on the internet. But no women.

It's amazing how many nutters sitting in their Mum's bedroom are lurking on the Internet.

Thank you, Contraction, I will. 'Buying and watching' has seen my overall ISA Portfolio gain £250k so far this year (even with the Trump Slump). Without getting my knickers in a twist about silly Long/Short positions cancelling each other out.

Now how's that for smug? :-)

Constipation, good to see you emerge from the toilet to have a smug crow once again.

Let me do you a favour as an old Investment hand. Any "stop losses" that you may claim to have on your shorts will count for nothing if there's a sudden upward (or downward) burst in the share price (for whatever reason).

Read the terms and conditions of your "stop loss" provider.

Don't say you weren't warned.

I am not one for a knee jerk panic. A lot of the nervousness surrounding markets is merely noise.

Having said that, this Israel attack on Iran is very real possibility, with all sorts of ramifications. That madman in Israel has long made it clear there is no way Israel will allow Iran to develop a nuclear capability. And I for one take him at his word.

If I had more cash, I'd be piling into gold. I've certainly put 10% of my daughters' Portfolios into gold today, despite its elevated levels. And of course oil will also shoot up.

Some people's shorts will need an urgent fumigation shortly...

Nitro, wrong again. My - long term - holding remains at 55,000 shares (@ 167p average, if I recall correctly). I just don't like people shooting off wishful nonsense for the heck of it.

Don't get me wrong, I wish this Company well. But you can't have it both ways. Oil prices were substantially hedge protected by HBR on the way down, they will remain hedged on the way up. And the Oil spike you refer to started at 2 pm in the afternoon yesterday. So any spike in the price would already have been reflected last afternoon.

I didn't know Giant Squids were such a bunch of w**kers.
