FTSE Sweepstake

My pension down 10.75%

It will recover in time. You've got nearly 10 years until you are old enough to retire.

**** you, I am not that old, I just look it

Ftse currently back over 6000.

My pension down 10.75%

Just remember : It's a long term plan. Knee-jerk reactions lock in losses.

Bounced off 5788, now on way up to 6000, before heading down later.

So looks like I was right to bin all of my shares yesterday and lock in a 3k profit, as if I'd stayed in I'd be nursing about an 8k loss.

UU and SSE stable, as you would expect, about a 6% drop in line with FTSE. The banks and insurers though 15%+

Ftse is higher than it was 2 weeks ago.

Stop whining.

A quick check on the Beeb and the FTSE is down 5% ( at 9:00am )

Interestingly the DAX is down 7.2% and the Cac 40 8.79%.

So from a pure markets view-point they are viewing the impact on Germany & France as more severe than that of the UK.

My own view of markets though is that they have the insight and temperament of 14 year-old girl who's just been dumped by her first boyfriend on the day One-Direction broke up.

Exactly this.

I hope the bwankers lost trillions. Fooking dirty spekulant chunts!

[MarillionFan]

I'd like to change my mind and say the FTSE will finish on 6300 please.

Dead cat bounce lulling everyone into a false sense of security.

5000 by this time next month.

4000 if Boris becomes PM.
