Little Frank Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Breaking: FTSE 100 closes at a new all-time high Kudos to the (sadly) departed RK. He was right all along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, and setting aside his uncanny ability to read the financial markets, we all miss his patience and charm. I was pretty sure that following him being banned for acting out like a thin-skinned humourless child, this thread would be pretty much the same as Buckingham Palace after Diana Queen of Hearts was stolen from us - awash with plaudits and best wishes for the future. Nobody was more surprised than me when instead this thread went completely ignored for six months (until you came along). I'm glad we've finally got a new poster who shares so many of his perspectives. Maybe you could do more great work preserving his legacy? There's a HP&TE thread where he made one of his typically insightful and courageous calls. Maybe you could give that a bump? Source By the way, Little Frank, I'd welcome your thoughts on the following matter. If RK had correctly anticipated how a Leave vote would crater sterling and the pass-through of the devaluation would spike the FTSE, why do you think he kept that to himself and just stuck to b0llocks about "200ma" and all the other banal chartist crap one might expect from a snake oil salesman stock picker with a horrendously over-inflated sense of self-worth, posting tirelessly on a thread nobody else was reading? He was a damn smart cookie, so there must have been a rational explanation for his approach.

anonguest Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Is it my imagination or is the FTSE-100 now up for a rather lengthy run of consecutive sessions (i.e. without any closes lower than preceding day) ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

man o' the year Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 After years of threatening and a year of frustration unable to access documents to prove identity I have now opened a dealing account and ready to wet my feet. Although I have had PEPs for years this will be a new experience. There is a reluctance as markets are at all time high but I must start using ISA allowances more effectively than the paltry per cent I can gain in cash ISAs. There were more notices of interest rate decreases in post today. What did RK post that saw him banned? anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's a record winning streak, of consecutive higher closes, for the FTSE? and then some IF it closes up yet again today? BUT this advance has been a crawl really. Mostly up by a small amount each day. Slowly clawing its way upwards. Hardly seems to be built on exhuberance? We've been here before numerous times. Something tells me this won't end well - and when it declines it will erase all that hard won gain in a day or three? A case of taking the staircase up and the elevator down?

The Masked Tulip Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 It is a coin toss on how the markets react to Trump taking office. We could soar or crash within a matter of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Bunny Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 Global stocks are now in a decade long bull mkt. March 23 saw the low for many years. They're rallying strongly for a few months. Then a correction (nothing massive), then good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
