Utilico Insights - Jacqueline Broers assesses why Vietnam could be the darling of Asia for investors. Watch the full video here.
Surely announcing this a week before results is a sign of bad news coming on March 7th? It feels like they are trying to pump the share price prior to incoming poor news - sell britbox, announce buy backs. You surely would not do this a week before results if the results are going to be good?
David Cameron was supposedly one of the whizz kids at ITV when most of the regions were bought up / consolidated into one company basically owned by London Weekend. I just wonder whether his return to government will more likely see the company sold off? I wonder if he still has a sizeable share holding or not.
The Hezz-bol-lah (Just in case that word is banned) is making a big speech tomorrow after Friday prayers. He is under pressure to declare war on Israel... and perhaps the West. If that happens then markets could take a dive. However, if he does not do this - instead, just makes lots of threats - then it will mean that both he and his master, Iran, have blinked. Which means we could be at the start of a nice November rally in US and UK stocks.
Lots of 'ifs' there.
Apple reports tonight. Qualcom give a good forecast yesterday and Apple usually does good if Qualcom does good. ROKU came in with excellent results last night.
You 2 are not allowed to push up the price today to try and win your competition ;-)
Have not the feintest clue why this is rising so strongly today? I can only assume some shorts are closing - any whispers of a take-over in the offering?
@Carrington - I think you are right. Look at how in the US they have just revised past months' job numbers. It is the US election run-up - probably has been since the start of the year and a big reason why the US markets have soared - hence why TPTB in the US will do anything and everything to create the image of a booming economy to get Biden or ANOther Democrat back in the White House. Its a cabal running things over there so I would not be surprised if all future US economic data is rosey and, by this time next year, they will be telling us that the US has never had it so good... just in time for those postal votes.
Unemployment is a lagging indicator. By the time that the big redundancies are happening the economy will have bottomed... if this turns out to be a recession. If it turns into something worse then all bets are off.
