you will only benefit from any stock price rise later if you buy more at the lower price

Does provide a pause for thought over what function the stock market actually performs on a daily basis.
The vast majority of transactions are merely shifting share ownership from one person/entity to another. It does nothing directly for the organisation who initially issued the share certificates, no new money for expansionary activities. |

thanks gazo but not really what I was asking
if your pots at zero,have you a pot full of units worth zero, on that day, which could be worth more next week,week after etc or is the pot finished for good using zero as a kamakazie situation to make it easier to understand |
|
By:
Do you really think this forum is a suitable place to be asking for that advice ?

By:
who would buy something thats valued at zero,think the stock would be gone

Many people were buying Carrillion shares just one day before they were officially valued at zero

a couple of years ago someone on here ran an experiment where he compared the performance of brokers recommended sells to the general market. he did this a few times and doing the exact opposite of what the 'experts' recommended was a good strategy. one time the sells lost less than the overall market and another they went up by more than the overall market

The nutjob announced yesterday that London would never under any circumstances be shut off transport wise in and out.
I've put that statement through a decoding machine and it came out thus... We are still adopting the herd immunity policy and as London is the epicentre we want as many people transporting it out to the rest of the country, we should be able to get a good decent spread of the virus this week-end. |

Must say i'm surprised that some experts"Motley Fool" and others are recommending buying Ocado shares as they are performing well in a probable Bear market! Yes the price has risen during this Corona virus as expected but surely once this crisis is over(assuming it will one day), the share price will fall as buyers have stocked their houses with food up to the rafters and the company has proved it can't cope with huge demand. Lots of potential customers can't get onto the website and probably won't return. Poor buy recommendation imo.

add in certain recession, followed by brecxt and all these big firms and those getting bail outs will be cutting/stopping the holy grail of fund managers and these funds dividends, all of course means giant increased benefits bill and massive tax rises in future for those who think it doesn't effect them, just my opinion of course,

always follow your gut instincts and knowledge of a particular company and its future potential, never follow expert advice, analysts are only
worth reading to learn more facts about a company, facts you will not be aware of, most institutions will beat the public's opinion and overall performance in share dealing, only when it comes to selling, as warren buffett has said you dont have to be a genius to make money on the stock markets. |

you should have finished the sentence off, WITH OTHER PEOPLE,S MONEY

when buying shares ask if you get a real paper certificate, you may be able to wipe your @rse with it when the bog roll runs out

Years ago I remember reading the Motley Fool and thinking it was trustworthy. I've realised I've read a huge amount of bullsh1t on it since.
I'm not saying I don't read things still but I take it with a pinch of salt as just one small piece to take into consideration. Certainly wouldn't trust it's opinion on anything without a great deal of thought and comparing it to other opinions. It may well be just more bullsh1t so they can write about something .. much as I do ;) |

To answer your question we need to know the exact funds (or fund of funds). In general I agree with Martin Lewis, all that counts is the price you buy and sell at. Though his advice will typically be too conservative (small c). His game is not really stock market investment. As I alluded to in the thread, whether you're in accumulation, or preservation (like you) is very important. |

only take your own advice but personally i would see this out long term.... it's a bit out of proportion , too many panic sellers ...i can see stocks rising eventually to 7500 but not for a very,very long time of course .
not even sure gold and futures a good bet right now ...will we get high inflation ...i'm none the wiser . FT still a higher figure than it was in 2009 (although about the same level in real terms) |

Seems the USA is giving $1200/500 to each adult/child
earning under $75k and bailouts for the airlines which the uk is NOT going to do  |
|
By:
not sure if usa are paying % of wages like uk but with all these bailouts after not putting things right after 2008 bailouts,what can possibly go wrong
|
|
By:
£30k per annum tax-free roughly equates to £50 per annum income which is nearly double average salary in London; will go a long way outside London.
Bailouts to airlines? BA was against the same for Flybe, correct? And that airline met its demise without it. A classic case of double standard, if so. |
