Been reading there has never been as much selling from 'insiders' that is Directors etc(those in the know)
Today BIG sell off in PRTY(founder sells substantial %) plus ARABS offloading Barclays
Can see lots of shares(away from commodities bubble)have fallen quite a bit(some at lows)
Definitely feeling a bit tense,reminds me when the crash started back insummer 2007,after an initial fall everyone bought back in (especially commodities)in disbelief/defiance

What was the bad economic news yesterday. I dont follow these shares but figured one of you might know why barret fell 35%? Just a capping of a speculative bubble maybe

housebuilders bdev and rdw
big falls yesterday
any reason..??

The arabs might be selling barclays but Im not sure of a fallback there. 360 is above support on the share, its not a big drop really and the last time they sold it was a good time to buy.
News upcoming for barclays would be just how much dividend can they return to their shareholders. Apparently Santander is making so much cash they will have a special dividend, in the ft today


I agree there is a topping off or slowing to the rises, especially compared to Sept but I'll save any conclusion for the end of the month to see if markets are level or dropping globally like they did in May before the june weakness showed up on ftse



Ftse is tipped to open up today. Wondering which might be a better hedge against a weak dollar, CEY or LMI

looks like time for me to watch and ride and only buy when and if we see a major reduction on my fav stocks


my biggest red for me is OXB today -23%

(i feel confident it will do well in the long run so not losing any sleep at this stage)

114p at close, not too bad, considering it went to 98p in the morning. AIM-stocks are definitely not for the faint-hearted, specially when you have 80% of your money in it like myself. RNS is on its way though, if the estimates are confirmed we should cruise past 120-130p.

Have plenty invested in the banks, fook me have they taken a hit this week; have shareholders lost confidence or would you still expect medium to long term profits???

Definately if your holding long term in the banks you will be rewarded, lloyd and rbs will take longer than barclays who i bought into today. I bought in the last 6 months so am not holding with average price of £3.00 for RBS as some are, but i will top up on these 2 after the RI when i expect them to drop short term.

Barclays also are a steal at current sp of £3.60-70 and will rocket next month when they announce xcellent profits and will be paying a dividend then.
