stock market crash

[DealorNoDeal]

On the plus side a lot of folk are going to make a ton of money. Who will it be?

The gold bugs?

The Bitcoin brigade?

ATW the pound in my pocket is all you need?

Shotgun n tinned beans horders?

LON: DTY might make a killing.

Wife and I are throwing £20k each into a S&S ISA tomorrow, so be nice if the FTSE dropped a bit more in the morning If market still low in a few weeks, we'll be adding another £20k each then too for the new ISA year.

So long as you can play the long game, it's a buyers market

I'd hold the cash for another month at least. Don't try and time it, look for consolidation. Consider this, how far away is the market from 2008 lows? I think that's where we're heading, which is still -40% away.

But if you've got years to spare - then ignore the above!

Agree, doing the same. Won't be looking at the FTSE 100 as an index, but tempted to take some punts. Maybe on Barclays at 118p (back to early 2009 levels), but could be stuck there a while if we enter a global recession.

Why don't you guys get a ticket to Las Vegas instead?

Similar results and a lot more fun.

Shut it, you vigorous pigeon. Back to your stoolcoins.

No offence but anyone buying at this point is delusional. The only direction the market is taking is downwards. Way down. I do hope that I am wrong but all signs are there. Brace for the tulipstorm.

Zero some game. Which the stock market, over longer terms, isn't.

It's pound cost averaging. I buy shares every couple of months. I'll keep doing so. You can't time the market.

Any company that's likely to survive the storm. Netflix should be good - all those people stuck at home!
