How would perm banning him and his sockie would help his mental condition?

“Investors ploughed more into global stock funds in the days after Pfizer unveiled its coronavirus breakthrough on Monday than in any week in at least two decades, as the news electrified financial markets.

Funds that buy stocks counted $44.5bn of inflows in the week to Wednesday, including more than $32bn that was invested in US stock funds, according to the data provider EPFR Global. It was the largest weekly haul by equity funds since EPFR has been collecting the data, as well as the second-biggest intake by US stock funds since 2000.”

So according to FT:

Funds that buy stocks counted $44.5bn of inflows in the week to Wednesday

The new commitments were driven by large institutional investors, including pensions and endowments, which added $41.1bn to their stock positions this week

Retail investors, by contrast, accounted for just $3.3bn of the inflows

Appears it's not dumb "retail investors" moving the market.

Appears it's not dumb "retail investors" moving the market.

Most retail investors tend to stay invested and move their money around. The big pension companies have millions of pounds accumulating into cash pots whilst they sat out of the markets whilst covid had no clear end date.

Retail investors have been in US and Tech, and jumped ship from these areas to buy anything that had dropped far.

A lot of them have started dripping back again after the tech sell off, as they realise it’s still a while off till people get vaccinated.

Poor scootie. His demo trading account is maxing out on negative wins.

Meanwhile, those of us with real accounts

Have higher lows been confirmed for LLOY yet?

I've learnt so much from my mistakes I'm thinking of making a few more, as my papa used to say.

I think that is really sad, but I'm sure he still loved you and your younger siblings.

(though it perhaps explains your desperate need for attention)

Scooty is certainly quiet today. Is he trying to draw a picture that still proves the FTSE 100 is on it's way to 4500?
