Time to raise the rents.

DRKW say this is the start of a LONG-TERM bear market. Are you listening DrBubb?

You have got to wonder if this is a convenient stop-loss point & where it might go from there. There is no safe haven and it feels as though the market is almost at capitulation point says CNBC. Funny, 'cause property feels like a safe haven of sorts to me......

Ooohh, here it comes, cover your heads.......

Definitely now that the big yellow stuff is at $588 No offence, but I thought it was clear that I'm not really interested in shares etc. I worked in banking & broking in London & we were professional fleecers. I aim not to be fleeced.

If you go belly up, they know your house will cover your mistakes. Not if you have one of those negative equity insurance policies we were talking about yesterday though!

Is that meant to be smart? A decent poster IMO wouldn't post something & treat it as if they were the source.

I'd compare it more with all your bills arriving on one day of the quarter & you took your money to the races in the hope of being able to pay those bills.

Correction to the thread opener: Property is now up 20%.

An event that occurs when the contracts for stock index futures, stock index options and stock options all expire on the same day. Triple witching days happen four times a year: the third Friday of March, June, September and December. This phenomenon is sometimes referred to as "Freaky Friday". The final trading hour for that Friday is the hour known as triple witching. The markets are quite volatile in this final hour, as traders are quickly offsetting their option/futures orders before the closing bell. If you are a long-term investor, triple witching will have a minimal impact on you. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/triplewitchinghour.asp

So they say, we'll have to see won't we.

Stick around here Prudence. I have no idea why you like that place anyway.

Being suckers in a bubble, they'd NEED to liquidate wouldn't they.....

I was thinking of starting a thread mentioning that everything the bears said has happened, they just got their asset class wrong!!!! No worries, they've all been short, called it at the top & will buy themselves a 5-bed house in a month or two.......

Agile parners say: Your market investments don't work out over a month, they work out over a year. Fat lot of good that will do anyone. Don't buy today, because it will always be cheaper in the short term.

I was once like you, I was a tenant too. It IS possible to escape, you just have to WANT TO & translate WANT into ACTION.

That's 26% off it's May high of $388 SocGen - Bear on ALL COMMODOTIES!!! Are you listening DrBubb? SocGen say Oil & Gas to be down 20% soon.

Apparently George Soros called the commodoties market yesterday. Personally I think he was late, but he may have called it earlier & I hadn't heard. Palladium graph: http://www.kitco.com/charts/livepalladium.html

More to the point, do we care?

Whatever the hell they use palladium for. This market's in free fall now.

And Van told me I should invest borrowed money in this market in January............... Muppet sheeple thingys.......

5517. I can feel it in my waters..... Yep, can't look at short term demand or the MPC may misjudge (ie if America head towards recession, look out the IR hiking camp).

5533. Oooohhh it's close...... Well if that happens, we can all go quiet about it & find a new thrill for the day.....

Fingers crossed.....

Well IMO that is a much better approach than constantly trying to make predictions.
