Hungryheart if I were you I would start looking for an alternative source of financing as a precautionary move.

Thank God we have General 'Mac' Montgomery advising NATO...

Norman Stanley Fletcher...;o)

We need to look at this globally: Global market share of electric cars more than doubled in 2021 as the EV revolution gains steam - https://electrek.co/2022/02/02/global-market-share-of-electric-cars-more-than-doubled-2021/

An extract from the article:

"Growth has been particularly impressive over the last three years, even as the global pandemic shrank the market for conventional cars and as manufacturers started grappling with supply chain bottlenecks. In 2019, 2.2 million electric cars 1 were sold, representing just 2.5% of global car sales. In 2020, the overall car market contracted but electric car sales bucked the trend, rising to 3 million and representing 4.1% of total car sales. In 2021, electric car sales more than doubled to 6.6 million, representing close to 9% of the global car market and more than tripling their market share from two years earlier. All the net growth in global car sales in 2021 came from electric cars.

Good night all.

You can talk Mac....

Did someone mention 'countdown'? Well let's have the Final Countdown... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jK-NcRmVcw

Futures markets in the UK/Europe are pointing to a red start this morning. We have BOE and ECB Interest decisions at lunchtime today.

LONDON — UBS on Tuesday reported a fall in quarterly profit, but beat analyst expectations and set ambitious new profitability targets as part of a strategic update.

The Swiss bank posted net profit attributable to shareholders of $1.35 billion for the fourth quarter. This was down from $1.64 billion a year earlier, and also lower than the $2.28 billion reported the previous quarter.

Analysts had forecast UBS to post net income attributable to shareholders of $863 million, according to the consensus published by the bank.

Asset sale update 'expected', that's just as bad as saying asset sale update 'shortly'....
