Bloomberg is just a convenient method to monitor markets/news. Good for a laugh too ( and Katie
 ) All my plays this month so far have been domestic income based, so the capital changes will be reflected on open tomoz. However I don't plan to cash in, building up a separate income portfolio. |

Ain't that the truth Another mad day in the Trump era Not sure I'd be getting carried away injecting fresh funds though May get more impetus through Asia session but risks still remain and recession still on cards Lot of big names have broken chart structure and remain below their 200 day moving averages especially tech - NVDA AMZN MSFT Long way to go US inflation numbers tmrw 13:30 |

No logic to the panic buying at all. They even bought TLRY
 Could be at least in part derivative driven. And how exactly do monster tracker funds remain accurate to the benchmark when it flips 7% in 10 minutes. Their algorithms must just kick in automatically.Also government bonds have not responded in the same way. By rights equities should correct to the downside once reality sinks in. Not that much has changed. Obviously, how sterling denominated equities go on open tomorrow is interesting, like it all is atm. Not a pretty picture for Rachel from accounts.  |

 Been watching the US 10 year yield too Cider - has given way a bit today but something pretty hairy going on with bond markets We shouldn't forget China still own a lot of treasuries (about 20%) and there has been spec they've been offloading again.. also US gov debt set to mature within next year, not sure exactly, but that is mahoosive- over 7 trillion$ ! Have read several places that should the 10 year spike and stick over 5% all hell could break loose |

Looking like risk off in the US today as expected, very early doors. Not quite time for the excitement to dissipate yet!

it's lack of confidence in government rather than the economy - similar to liz truss |

The corollary with the UK in late 2023 is manipulating the market to try and engineer a change of policy. This is what happens if they let a lot of paper go to foreigners, only themselves to blame.

we haven't see the market react so badly to potus economic decisions since nixon

there was a US treasury auction yesterday of 10 years and there was a big demand. suggesting that the market on existing paper was being manipulated.

Just like the BoE did to try and get rid of KK

Any evidence for that? can’t believe people who make wild, paranoid assertions with no evidence.

there's no audit trail of general trading. So no. Hypothesising on market moves are just that. Nobody can prove why markets move one way or another. You will however definitely find evidence of the BoE dumping gilts on the market, when gilts were under pressure way back in 2023. When they (extraordinarily) claimed that market conditions were settled. |

Not a buyer in sight
SP500 went -6.98% There's a circuit breaker triggered at -7% and market closes for 15 mins Wouldn't look good |

should come in around 5095 sp500 (7% from previous days close if that much down before 3pm et)

do you have a long term buy point, cl?
I'm thinking of putting a toe gently in the water soon. I'm sure you're watching the 10 year again, more fun and games. 'they' are playing with the $ too. which doesn't come cheap |

By:
10 year creeping higher again and gold is bid to old boots
this is telling us something I think Yep, lack of confidence in gov but there's more to this possibly .. might be a liquidity issue hovering sp500 bouncing |

Given natural human endeavour,progress,inflation.
All markets will grow. It’s just evolution,progress. But the traders need the crashes. So Dot com Banking crisis Now trump. They need excuses,to explain why your investment ,pension hasn’t hit targets, because the real reason is,their fees,commission.to manage the small profit,rather than the big profit. A class 6 seller at Southwell is probably a safer gambling opportunity,than the stock market. |

i'm trickling in a little more than I normally would with spare cash into tracker etfs - buying global stocks at the prices they were 12 months ago - this nonsense will end soon enough
one of the things about this market fall is that it's accompanied by a pound strengthening against the dollar - it's nearly always the other way round |

Not getting married to any precise levels on the indices in this environment Cider but looking back on the charts for history we made a low in sp500 last week of 4805 which also happened to be exactly the previous all time high in jan 2022 before we fell away - classic old resistance now turned support ( also exactly a 50% retracement of the past 30 month range 3493-6140 ).. uncanny how these technicals play out sometimes
It's a huge level which would be a great buy area - couldn't blame you for using that as a gauge for averaging into weakness back towards there - will we see it again ? fark knows  but if we lose it as support there's a whole lot of space down there |

chasing perfection is an enemy.
I'm considering just about 10% at the moment. UK should be tanked again am unless something weird happens, so more cherry picking high yield in the morning for my buy and hold income portfolio, hopefully. |

welcome to the casino
yep tops and bottoms are for the birds - steady eddy and dollar cost average etc - scale 'em in and let 'em soak narrative can change on a dime and this will be going on for a very long time - lots of different angles in play |
