I don’t think the USA will bail out credit suisse

The retail & pension funds are being played so hard it’s almost laughable foreseeing some of these moves. They’re still telling the public this is a soft landing…

Lol for a while they said no landing.

Go figure

Unless people are doubling their salary or income this is beginning to be quite the bare market, who are the buyers going to be? Institutional investors when the right prices are reached and retail gives up.

The only disagreement I have with John Thomas (mad hedge insights) in the past 4 years is that he says we are already 6 months into a bull market… I cautiously disagree.

Just out of interest, does FT have any exposure to CS (credit suisse) bank ?

My grimmest day since i started investing. Not only is my portfolio all red, but my watchlist to. I added gbpusd and usdgbp to to be sure one item will be green !

Talking their book, usually

All I can say is I buy in at the worst times. I just spent 15x what I usally spent in a month last week and then boom everything collapsed lol, especially rio which is taken a big dive every day so far and is one of my biggest investments alongside snp500 dang trading is hard, since I started trading in June 2021 I’m down Ā£130, the gains the gains think about the gains they tell me…

Runs and buys a high protein bar, better results probably :smiley:

Wish i was only £130 down! Luckily im only down on paper unless i sell, but even so!
Just need some good RNS from a few companies then everything will be fine !
I sold out of rio when they lost some dangerous substance on the road ! Hows that even possible!

Ahh that wouldn’t make me sell, when the mine gets lower it would but they have just got the new copper mine up and running.

They found that radio active tiny little pebble not long after it was lost so all is well.

We just need out this rutt, dept, pandemics, strikes, wars, bank collapses, energy crisis, food crisis… Once that’s all complete

We can all be rich is the bull!!!

Im not selling anymore. Just holding on in hope ! Its really scary seeing all red and that negative portfolio value. Keep saying it cant get worse and then boom…even the one i always thought would never drop below 1p did today for the first time… its the day of historical lows for quite a few companies i bet.

I’m down Ā£93 since I started. Not worried know. I just wish I could invest more right now. Crazy to think I almost brought some shares in Credit Suisse around 2021. Dodge that bullet. :gun:

What will be interesting will be when the war ends as that could see a huge upturn in confidence. Of course another crises may appear but that is going to have a large impact on the markets when it does finally end whenever.

Im down £1700 in 7 days but still in the green overall. Take your emotions out of it and just see that all those amazing stocks you picked are now discounted. Lower your average buy in with consistent deposits that are pre planned and all will be good

Would love to but ive hit my investement limit for the month.

I think many of us are waiting for a few RNS to land any day for a few companies. Then all will be ok.
