    It must be a relief all round that they're restarting your electroconvulsive therapy.

      HSBC -56%

      Earlier in the thread I said HSBC was at risk of collapse this year. So far share price has collapsed 56%.

      Price action is now trading at the same levels at Lehman Brothers right before their collapse.

      Do you remember what I said would happen to paper gold / spot gold if HSBC goes under?

        Why has Lloyds dropped 52% in the same period then?

        HSBC is in a bad way though, as I posted at the time.

          I don't remember, haven't read it. If you can remove the emotion and post some reasoned thoughts it might be worth thinking about. If you can bring this thread back with some insight, analysis, thoughts, intelligent reasoning then this sorry mess might be worth something to someone.

            Don't forget facts and reality. The rest of it is no good without a starting point.

              Use the search box. I've been very clear on my expectations.

                Please set out your market expectations in that case and what time frame

                  I don't do times, and I always fall into the trap when pushed. I do trends; trends are reliable or should I say probable.

                  Alles gut.

                    This is criticism about gold etfs not being physically settled. This is not making predictions on market prices and index benchmark numbers

                      You ought to if you're going to play with derivatives (options) which have an expiry date.
                      Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.
