rather than pick out individual stocks to trade, it can often be worthwhile to trade the indices themselves, especially in times of high volatility.

for those so inclined, i attach below charts for FTSE and FTSE 250, though one might equally be tempted to trade Dow or S&P, which is significantly broader in its coverage, or even NASDAQ

for ease of reading, i have attached 1 year and 3 month charts in each instance

HG+HC INDEX
this has been a consistent winner for me, though it can very scary .....
it's currently contemplating breaking upwards once more, and if it does so, it will be in to new all-time territory

Have decided that FTSE is going to rise over the long term and that Gold will continue to fall - so have placed a small sell on Gold for now and will monitor. Nothing on the FTSE yet - cos I got no money left !!

has it been that bad bhunt, hope not.,.

I got filled on FTSE short @6,684 earlier - currently -22!

Well, like most people I'm sure, my SIPP & ISA continue to reach new highs. That statement will now kill the market!

German Prelim GDP q/q 0.1% 0.3% -0.7%

French CPI m/m -0.1% 0.1% 0.8%

Skinny, both CGL & AML have pinged up on my research as high yielders and steady growth. Both are in a pretty dull sector of Insurance underwriting & reinsurance, but maybe one for your ISA or SIPP.
