stock market crash

US is creating money out of thin air at a rate of $120bn a month, has $7trn of debt on it's balance sheets, and will continue to spray the stock market with free money for a long time yet.

They won't even consider tapering until the inflation rate is well over 2%.

So it's QE until hyperinflation or nothing.

Expect stock markets to look like Bitcoin prices.

We must be pretty close to the top, but the market can stay irrational long after ScoorterScots short position have bankrupted him.

Maybe time to take profits though.

There is a rumour that the stamp duty holiday will be extended for another 6 weeks .... could be this too. You know what they say about buying the rumour

If true this would be most welcome - my sale / purchase should just make the current deadline but it's VERY close, so a few more weeks would be nice! An extra £15k in my bank is not to be sniffed at

Well their profits have fallen 34% so it may not be bust but it does have a few billion less than it did have.

Although it is their supportive stance of China and the action taken against Hong Kong that might finally give me the kick up the bum needed to move to another bank
