Annual UK house price growth slowed very slightly in the three months to January as more people put their properties on the market Vodafone is now favourite to win the bidding battle for AT&T. It may raise its offer to as much as $39.4 billion (21 billion pounds), while Cingular Wireless is now thought not to raise its offer. Amersham medical firm currently being taken over by General Electric said a weaker dollar meant its profits fell last year 2% to 294 million pounds, but its drug discovery unit moved into the black ahead of schedule. Reuters returned back into profit which were above market expectations despite a 10% fall in revenues. Profit of 190 million compared with market forecasts of around 110-150 million pounds. The company declared a full-year dividend of 10 pence per share. Good figures! Uniq food group said it was in discussions to sell its UK poultry business, after the loss of key Burger King work and the outbreak of Avian flu around the world has led to a loss of about 3 million pounds in the current financial year Bradford & Bingley mortgage bank reported annual profit of 263 million pound beating expectations of 261 million pounds after its estate agency business recovered in the second half. |

LLOY (to me more heavily a clearing bank) but was very tempted
to get into barclays at one time, your thoughts I feel are quite
right, but at this stage holding 3 in the sector would be too much.

The more GSK goes, the more i am starting to believe your 1000p target. I am now only trading these very short term (less than a day usually) though still intend to buy some for the long term though not until the price appears to have settled a bit. Thanks for your earlier postings regarding this because they were the trigger for me to keep a much shorter term view on them and actually made me money rather than me sitting on what would now be quite a large paper loss.

sharing views and giving alternative opinions.
I've had to rethink a lot my own preconceived notions after
reading other posters take on matters.
Always good to listen to other viewpoints, but your actions
should always be based on your own final thoughts, not
someone elses.
Glad you made some money. :-)
Melnibone.

Eustoxx50 stalled at 2900.
Dax stalled at 4100.
Cac just broke 3700.
If DOW doesn't break above 10700, then there's a good
chance of some Eurozone profit taking prior to the close.
Melnibone.

I agree completely - I always take full responsibility for any investment I make but if often takes someone else to state a contrary view with good reasoning to stop me being pig-headed - a dangerous mindset in this game (but a trait i've always had). Out of curiosity do you ever trade Bunzl? any views would be appreciated - they release results next week and i am looking to go short.

I've never looked at BNZL before. Don't know anything
about them.
A quick look at the chart would appear to show it still
in an uptrend. So if you are going to go short then I
would wait for it to start making lower lows and lower
highs, otherwise you may find yourself shorting it on
the dips which has burnt a fair few Bears this year who
have been trying to guess the turns.
Maybe Croc's 1-2-3 system would give a direction?
Melnibone.
