I bought Lloyds as well but they are not doing so well frown Only just showing a profit when I checked this morning.
No, but I didn't want to do one of the LSE style posters by only celebrating the successes and burying ones head to the less impressive.

Just checked and it shows 3.12% gain so still not so bad.

How much further do peeps think they have to go?
Re: SXX, we are looking at a company with a MC of about £1bn; NPV of the project is north of £10bn.

There will deffo be some dilution, but I still think it has plenty of legs... I'm a long term holder and will continue to be!

Bit of a bumpy day full stop. Up 13% (on opening SP) within the first hour or so, then down 11% (from opening SP) later in the day. Then a rally to close.

Some very large trades a close, including a £1.56m (3,184,887 shares) one at 16:40.

Would like to think back up tomorrow, but who knows. It certainly an interesting one.

Short term way extended so plan is to short on a break and hold below that h4 10ema for 1st targets into around 45ish.
Closed 3/4 the short in wti, will trail rest to see if it gets below 45. If it gets back to and is rejected by 47.60ish will add back short otherwise flip to long.


Sub 1300 gold coming to you soon.

No one ever went broke by making a profit. You did well I think.

Brent option expiry today
Still looks a sell to me, but I have a feeling that total breakdown in Venezuela isn't too far away which will be a very bullish headline

Tipped yesterday as still a buy, Persimmon seem to being the doing the right thing and 6,7 dividend as well.

from Times yesterday.

http://www.thetimes.co.uk/past-six-days/2016-08-24...

Buyers of Persimmon homes have shrugged off initial Brexit uncertainty and sent sales at the UK’s second-biggest housebuilder 17 per cent higher than in the same period last year.

The FTSE 100 builder reported a 29 per cent rise in pre-tax profits to £352 million in the six months to the end of June on a 12 per cent increase in revenues to £1.49 billion.

The number of visitors to Persimmon sites per week has risen by 20 per cent since the referendum and reservation rates are 17 per cent ahead. Housing analysts at Peel Hunt were so impressed with the performance that they wrote a note titled: “Vote, what vote?”

The builder reported a slight increase in cancellation rates immediately after Britain voted to leave but said that cancellations were now lower than in the same period last year and that interest from customers remained “robust”.

Jeff Fairburn, chief executive of Persimmon, said: “We did see in the days around Brexit a bit of a change in terms of trading, but it’s such a short period of time it didn’t really have any effect. We have still seen very strong interest in sites and visitor traffic is well up. If people have got jobs and they can afford to buy, they just want to get on with it.”

Still think we see the 30's again on the bigger structure but question is how we get there. Immediate short term thinking bounce up to around 48ish then continue path down. We know OPEC is a waste of time but to a certain extent so does the market. Shouldn't really surprise me anymore but the manipulation and games always makes me laugh. That statement on Monday about the Iranians just to squeeze the weak shorts out was just plain Tom fkery. There is no chance a production cut comes at all. Actually surprised crude didn't fall more on those inventory builds yesterday.

Got into Nat gas last week, think that one has a nice pattern to it, if it can break out should be a sizable move. Metals just look horrible and have done for the last 2 weeks or so. Gold just looking at it again much longer term could go 1225ish, infact almost any inflationary asset has looked kind of ugly last 2 weeks just waiting for the markets to catch up.
Feels like it's on the verge of a rug pull, will wait for price to confirm but I'm thinking minimum 5% pullback. Should be a fun Friday 3-4 weeks of going nowhere could do with some volatility back.

Reason for the rise

http://www.smallcapnetwork.com/Highlands-Natural-R...

The article is full of follow on good news, meetings with major service companies ect. I know some of this will have been priced in now but if the outcomes are good the price will rise.

They still have some good news to come soon from prospect drills at other sites.

Wti next stop $41 long as closes below last weeks lows today.  Assuming it blows past $45.65 on way down.

Surprised at how well gold has held up especially because what the $ has been doing.
