All this shows is that some business get it wrong and that Execs believe they can create some magic and the good-times will return (with little actual effort).
It requires acceptance of a problem and then go and sort it. Culling a few Directors would help, IMHO.

Hydrogen Group Plc., the specialist recruiter, on Friday put out a profit warning that if current trading conditions persist its first-half and full-year pretax profit will be lower than in the same period last year, sending shares sharply lower.
Landsbanki analyst Ian Jermin, who believes that the biggest weakness is in permanent recruitment within investment banking, said 'this is the first such warning since the credit crisis began nearly a year ago and should send warnings across the bows of other staffers with exposure to the financial services markets.'

Tanfield Group issued a profit warning today after reporting a 'marked slowing' in its markets. In a trading statement, the electric vehicle maker said it expects growth at a significantly lower level than previously forecasted, and it will not meet market expectations for the year. Turnover for the first six months was up 36% on a proforma basis at 91 million compared to the same period in 2007. The group's Powered Access unit, which accounts for up to 80% of project revenues, has been hardest hit by a fall in demand in the markets of its distributors and end users.
Tanfield said that its net cash position of 11.1 million at the half year is less than expected due to customer payment delays, increased inventory levels and late deliveries.

IMO it is commodity funds having to sell through redemptions. Once the US triggers the sell-off in the afternoon, then it becomes unstoppable.
As much as I hate owning loss-making shares, I don't have to sell so will brave it out as I'd be taking a big hit if I did get out.
Eventually the trend will reverse and IMO they will recover somewhat very quickly.
That's the theory anyway!

Not sure about the last bit Strawbs. If we become very oversold, when the worst is over then greed will play a part and as pi's and others see the opportunity to make money then the sp's will rise considerably.
As these conditions have never been seen before it really is a bit of a guessing game as to what is going to happen next!

17/10/2008 - British car retailer Inchcape Plc said on Friday a recent sharp downturn in its home market meant 2008 profit would be below the consensus of market forecasts while next year its profit will be significantly below previous expectations.
'With the events in financial markets across the world in recent weeks consumer confidence has reduced substantially. As a consequence trading conditions have deteriorated significantly in the UK and are weakening in a number of our other markets,' Inchcape said in a statement.

If you look back at the graphs on this thread, when the price hits bottom it tends to stay there. The easy moneys gone, it won't be back anytime soon, that's why I see an equities wasteland for several years. It's happened in the past, just nobody remembers it, we're all too caught up in support, resistance, bounces and bottom picking..... There'll be a few choice survivors of course, problem is picking them!

Expectations for the remainder of 2008 for UK Coal
While output in the third quarter, and in particular in September, was reduced in part by non-recurring events, poor geology has continued to affect output at Kellingley and Thoresby. As a consequence, we believe that full year sales will total around 8 million tonnes, compared to earlier expectations of around 8.7 million tonnes (2007: 7.8m tonnes, excluding Maltby). We expect full year Deep Mine sales will be no more than 6.2 million tonnes and Surface Mines will realise circa 1.8 million tonnes.
In revenue terms for the full year, until recently we expected that part of this output shortfall would have been offset by higher than expected realised average sales prices. However, following the recent fall in the market price of coal we now expect an average fourth quarter sales price of 1.85 to 1.90 /GJ, taking fixed price contracts into account, making the average out-turn for the full year within our previously announced range of 1.90 to 1.95/GJ, rather than higher than this range as it might have been.
The world coal price has recently dropped from over $190 per tonne at the end of August for H2 2008 deliveries to $129 per tonne as of 14 October 2008 for Q4 2008 deliveries. At an exchange rate of circa 1:$1.75, this converts into a current UK market price of around 3/GJ. Compared to previous years, and indeed to the start of 2008 when the world coal price was around $118/tonne or 2.35/GJ at 1:$2, this remains a very high market price. However, very significant amounts of our deliveries are still contracted at prices historically fixed well below this level. The volume of these older contracts is set to fall sharply after next year.
It is disappointing that the geological conditions at Kellingley and Thoresby are likely to keep run-rate of production at these mines lower than we have previously expected until they can access their new seams towards the end of next year. This, and the recent drop in market price of coal from its record levels earlier this year, has a direct impact

You say look back at the charts here, but they are all tied up with the credit crunch. In 2003, the low was reached the day before the Iraqi war and then there was a considerable bounce. Different conditions now, granted but when this bear market ends and assuming we don't go into a depreesion (which I think is possible) as banks start lending again I feel confidence may return very quickly and initially at least there will be a large bounce even if we then tread water for a year or so.
When all this will be of course is anyone's guess. Next week, month, year ..

Last time we had very low interest rates and massive (worldwide) government spending, in response to 9/11 amongst other things. We also had China taking off, which meant lots of cheap goods and massive amounts of spare cash (to invest). Unemployment was falling and governments were spending heavily on infrastructure (NHS etc.) and the military. This time we have the world slowing down, massive personal debt, massive government debt, huge losses in asset prices (houses, equities etc.) and potentially significant job losses to come. Not the sort of market for spare cash invested in equites.
Give it two or three years for the worst of it to play out and things will start to recover. I'l be looking to drip feed small amounts of money into the markets from around 2010 onwards.
People have lost the art of patience. They want massive gains in days, weeks or months. In volatile markets gains can be made and lost in hours...
In my opinion.

The situation you describe is like a coiled spring but as you release it, it can have a dramatic effect. If we believe the stories then there is an incredible amount of money sitting on the sidelines worldwide ready to invest.
I look at the FTSE 10 year chart statistically. It is so dramatic that it is impossible to say where the next move may be say over the next year or so but I still feel a large bounce is very possible. At the end of the day, unless the miners are going bankrupt, then by falling 20%/day, they are going to hit their bottom very quickly. I still believe in their growth story on amedium to long term view.
ps If you want to take a look at RXP chart it gives a good indication of what can happen. Last week it was 2p and oversold. It has just gone to 6.38p.

You might be right, you might be wrong. I'll wait for now. My instincts have been pretty good so I'll stick with them, and maybe in hindsight I suppose I should've backed them more on the short side. Ho hum. No point in being greedy though... :-)

Someone once told me. Trust your instincts, it's far cheaper than paying someone else to make the mistakes for you! :-)
If you can afford to wait, then eventually prices will rebound, and maybe in 20 years time it'll be seen as a great missed buying oppertunity. If you're trying to make money quickly though, I don't think this is the market for it. Gains one day can be wiped out the next, the big bounce might never come, or might come the day you go short. As I see it, if house prices are being trashed, jobs are being trashed, bond yeilds are being trashed and interest rates are probably soon to be trashed, why should anyone in the equity markets find it easy to make money! :-)

P.S. Probably best move the conversation off this thread before Hlyeo gets annoyed..

Just been listening to Andrew Bell on CNBC.
As he says as PI's try to pick the bottom there are a bunch of forced sellers trampling over them desperately trying to offload. I tell you what. If anyone can work out when the forced selling is going to stop, then there is a load of money to be made. The problem is that so many people like me have continually tried to pick the bottom that they won't have the cash to take advantage!

Not on the slopes thankfully Hlyeo. Been mostly cash for well over a year. My only 3 investments (since early May and moderately small), UKXS, PHGP and OXB have netted a small profit. Worth noting however, the only share I bought (on the long side) is also the only thing thats lost me money! I'm staying well out of the market now until things settle down.

UK builders' merchant Travis Perkins said it expects a more rapid decline in market activity. The company said today turnover for the nine months to the end of September is up 3.3% compared to 2007.
However, in recent weeks, trading has been below earlier expectations with both the merchanting and retailing businesses experiencing more difficult conditions as sentiment in construction markets has reacted to the extraordinary turmoil in financial markets. Profits before tax and non-recurring charges for 2008 are seen to be at the low end of analysts' expectations.
For the first nine months of 2008, total turnover in the merchanting division is up by 3.1%. Whilst like-for-like turnover per trading day for this period was down by 1.2%, the trend of like-for-like sales in both September and early October has deteriorated sharply to minus 10%.

Trading update :
"Having regard to the changed economic climate and notwithstanding the management initiatives outlined above, the Board does not expect Davenham to be profitable in the current financial year.
In the circumstances, the Board has decided to withdraw its recommendation for a final dividend of 7p per share which had been due to be approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on Friday 24 October 2008. This will have the benefit of conserving cash for the Group during these uncertain times."

Good move by Darling to curb alcohol consumption which costs NHS millions and saving families from destruction...pubs closure is a good thing.
The budget report designed to stimulate flagging demand in many areas of the economy, Darling said he would offset a 2.5 percent cut in value-added tax with an increase in duty on alcohol and tobacco to ensure prices stay the same.
Mark Hastings, the BBPA's Director of Communications, said: 'It's truly staggering that struggling community pubs and brewers have been denied the tax benefit extended to the rest of the business sector through the VAT cut.'
Pubs are closing at record rates and beer sales are at their lowest since the Great Depression.
'Chancellor Darling's refusal to allow beer drinkers to benefit from a VAT reduction means that 7,500 pubs could close by the end of 2012,' said CAMRA Chief Executive Mike Benner.

Talks about a rights issue has collapsed Brixton but it is impossible to see how that could succeed, given that the share price has plunged far below the level a rights issue would have been pitched just a week ago. And with institutional investors like HBOS having pulled out already it's difficult who would be left to take up rights even if the price could be fixed!
Furthermore, empty rates liability has hit hard and the big unknown is their internal credit control process - i.e. how many tenants are struggling to pay their rent on time (or at all)?.

Segro plunges as much as 20 percent on fears it will soon launch a deeply discounted rights issue, as UK's property companies struggle to raise funds in a bid to repair their balance sheet. Segro announced earlier Monday it was in discussions about a possible equity capital raising, amid a property downturn that has already seen larger UK rivals such as Land Securities and British Land launch rights issues totalling billions of pounds. JPMorgan said in a research note on Monday that it estimates Segro would raise 390 million pounds. "On current pricing, raising 390 million pounds at an 80 percent discount would result in a 4-for-1 rights issue with a discount to TERP (theoretical ex-rights price) of around 44 percent on our estimates," JPMorgan analysts said.
