Roundtable Discussion; The Future of Mineral Sands. Watch the video here.
I hope they can craft some kind of convincing case, because the SP is on the floor. Perhaps not the best time to be a small bank?
So, turns out there was some truth in the FT article and we now have an RNS clarifying things. People were calling for change and they look to have listened.
I cut my losses, there's only so much you can average down. It'll recover, but it's going to be a long road I think.
Well, this is a bag of mixed messages. Won't do much good for sentiment. I am, however, happy to keep adding at these levels.
ECB just hiked 0.5% , I don't think we are done with rate rises yet to tame inflation. I think the FED will likely hike 0.25 or 0.5 despite the recent banking crisis. Gonna be choppy markets for a while yet IMHO, but no one can really predict anything at the moment!
Yes, yes... I know. (Rolls eyes).
Market seems to be calming down. Slow creep back up to £7?
I'm sure you've all woken up to the same news about the HSBC purchase of SVB and the US Gov stepping in to protect deposits at SVB USA. Panic largely over, but may cast a longer shadow over markets whilst we wonder what other issues are lurking in the wings.
Based on what's out there in the news, the only thing I've picked up on so far is Shopify, but it's only 1% of the SMT portfolio. Remains to be seen if there will be any kind of intervention / rescue plan. Seems likely as this will hit many businesses.
I did wonder if any of the companies SMT invests in had links to SVP. Hard to check with any certainty though.
How this is blue today, I don't know. Impressive.
Hi Heck, why £4.30? Seems very precise. Can you expand on your reasoning.
Just when you think the bottom is in the market goes and has a panic attack. Wonder if these lows will be sticky or it'll bounce back up over £7 once the USA has calmed down.
About bloody time, but that's a nice rise today.
Seems like a solid appointment. I'd be very happy to see a turn around for PFG.
Ah, the inevitable LSE 'takeover' thread. Never a good sign.
VOX Markets are a trap, learnt that early on and bought into the BS around RevB. Now sitting on a suspended share. LOL. Sometimes the hype is real, sometimes it's manufactured. I've moved more towards just sticking to broad ETF / Index funds, as I don't have the expertise to read the market and properly evaluate companies. Hey, and even the pros get it wrong.
Yes, I also use HL and it's the same on my end. Just a matter of patience here, like most investing.
I keep ELF on the watch list as a kind of comparison and as an indicator of SP moves in the sector.
Prov Spin off International Personal Finance posting strong results today, with a 16% increase in divi and and SP that's not all that volatile compared to PFG. Wish we could see this kind of stable growth at PFG. Hopefully we finally see the ship turning this year.
