Death by radiation poisoning or methane gas, that doesn't sound appealingOriginally posted by MarillionFan View PostSeems overinflated to me as well. Only a few months ago we were looking at a EURO collapse. We still have a good war with Russia to go yet, so I've decided to buy a Nuclear Bunker and fill it with Tescos Own Brand Beans just in case.

Labour will form a coalition. But the city likes Labour. Lots more cash floating around.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostIt's a very simple one this.
If Labour win the election or form a coalition, we will see a FTSE crash, if the Tories win, I reckon it could hit 8,000 plus easily.

A bubble of 15 years ago would be a third greater today on 2% inflation. The S&P is about a third greater than its dotcom peak. The FTSE has been a dog over the last decade or so when compared to many other indices, mainly due to it's composition, with heavy mining, oil and gas components.
