Has the stock crash started?

[alreadypacked]

Any bargains to be had then?

We have to wait for the bounce thing

Alliance & Leicester release results tomorrow - looking cheap today and worth a punt. Miners also taking a severe beating - look at AAL as bargain of the month.

Don't take my advice though - I've lost some 50k this year so far

Value investors over at TMF are talking about RBS as well:

If i was you I would stop and whack your money in a Ice Save account.

As long as you beat the 14%YOY money supply growth on your investments, you're doing OK.

You haven't been spread betting ?

You don't need to risk your money on that, if you want excitement just go into emerging markets, Brasil or Thailand for example.

Anyone spread betting?

Yep - I've got £30/point on the FTSE. Lost £13.5K this week.

Happy days LOL.

My advice on spread betting would be trade piffling amounts, and if you do well gradually build up. If it really is worthwhile then you'll build up capital. My suspicion is that unless you have some well thought out strategy, you'll probably lose on the spreads. I mean you're not holding anything of value like a share, your betting against some geezer who thinks he knows better than you.

So...out of interest is anyone earning big money?
