They are pricing in another full global lockdown.
I had way too much of my portfolio invested, so set a stop on SSON at 1535 across ISA/SIPP ..got smashed through but at least I have some 20% cash now. Hate breaking my own rules, but I wanted to shift portfolio around a bit anyway so not too upset.
Not pretty to watch your portfolio getting a hammering.
Long game though, but even so.
Bloodbath? What are you talking about. It's a beautiful day for us bears

Commodities are oversold mostly. Notwithstanding that, I'm sure glad I keep cash on the shelve, USD and EUR mostly. Times like these cash is king."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

How does a vaccine protect us from 5G?

Bread (Brd) is my next big bet. Sunk a five figured sum into it so far. Tempted to add to it during this sell off we're not seeing."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
