"Credit Suisse in more trouble today."

It's quicksand season. Friday was the beginning of a new sink hole. 25 billion in loans to fix a 600 billion problem - sure that will work.

Ongoing

TFE, people take advantage of cheap money, back the wagon up and load up with debt. Cheap then becomes expensive, the fastest hikes in history yet to exit the pipe - more coming.

My first motor paid a fiver, it outpaced the cops leaving the boozer. Sold it two years later for a fiver - good old days.

"Car finance, PCP, HP, Car refinance/loans, insurance all good for Lloyds with Lex Autolease."

Skewed thinking there TFE. The auto market is the next subprime event making it's way to the surface - losing money isn't good, ask the Yankee dealers who recently gone bust. Been there before when the keys were handed back, this time a different set of keys - no winners just losers and a sore chin.

Wait for the blow up.

Crowcast/Jayfax is 6ft 2in. He told me once upon a time.

"UK retail sales revenue grew +5% YoY in Q4 2022 and +4% YoY in Dec 2022.

Yet another self-loathing doom-loop of misery from the ONS "marketing" dept."

You're shelling out more Sterling for less stuff - volumes are down

TFE, AKA the Cognac group in pinstripes.

Everything is being fixed in Davos TFE. Our futures being shaped during a hand job or blow job, while sipping expensive wine - the elites have your back, you'll own less and be more unhappy. :-)

Lol, this board is well and truly fcked - follows everything else I suppose.

"New Comp begins January 2023"

So we'll soon see how many pipes Santa dished out this year - maybe supply issues.

Three things are needed. Good English Oak, some rope, and a stool.

Brits are good at queuing and never seem to complain - maybe next time will be different.

The country has gone off the rails, led by nutters internal and external, but it's not just a UK thing. Enjoy the Turkey, if Klaus gets his way you'll be eating bugs and be happy - and own fckall.

Who'd wanna be a youngster today.

"Unfortunately this board has become unbearable, full of nutters and fantasists."

You can add the whole world to that statement.

"As of 2mins ago, there are well over 1 million UK homes for sale or rent on Rightmove, Zoopla, etc. A huge choice. Something for everyone. From £20k to £20m. There is no housing shortage in the UK."

Of course not. There'll be a glut next year and still build. What's happening in the States today will happen in the UK tomorrow - and every where else.

Markets have been rewarded by Central banks low rates for too long mistakes. The markets will correct mistakes by crashing prices - what goes up, will come down.

I understood it was 80p this year with all the ramping going on, and that based on easy money.

So it's 80p next year on harder to come by money. It's not always earnings which drives the SP. What comes in the front door is one thing, what goes out the back door is quite another.

Your dream is running out of steam - and time.

Absolutely no doubt. May results will show the train wreck - impact inbound.

Morning Gate
That's only half the story. It also deters new customers from taking out new loans, which is the bread and butter of the business - consumer debt driven.

Shrimper will reply after he's finished snorting on the beach.

"some talk about BofE 25bps this week.....still going 50bps uk and US this week......interesting week...gla"

Doesn't matter which. The damage is already done - lag effect.

Casablanca - bet Humphrey Bogart is chuffed

It's not about trusting to luck, laws and rules would quickly change as they did in Italy. What happens in reality is what matters.

Trusting government, well must be a first - good luck with that.
