It's just took me 25 minutes to get back and edit an earlier
post where I put the wrong figure in, (4 points rise on the
FTSE for every one on the S@P instead of the 10 points that
I put).
Melnibone.
Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 11:53 - 28 of 61
I'd redress the balance and find a positive spin for
a change.
The S@P has been bumping up against the 1074 technical
resistance level.
This Saddam bounce has took it 10 points above that, so
with some luck on the Bulls side, this level may now
act as support when it drops back to test it.
This will limit the FTSE in how far it drops if the above
scenario plays out. Haven't got a crystal ball so I'll
wait and see the outcome with you all.
Time to get some stuff done, see you all when the US opens.
All to play for, depends what the US does, as usual.

All the other markets seem to be doing well.
LLOY hit 4.20 before dropping back slightly!

Share price initially dropped, but spread is no longer outrageous, so price going up.

increasing their share holding percentage - Are the big financials
putting more money into the stock market currently or is this
just a coincidence? Anyone else found others also getting further
barclays interest??
Aside of that - GO HBOS & LLOY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

US is behaving sensibly and is taking back some of the
gap open. If it had carried on zooming up this would have
set it up for an even bigger fall.
This has brought the FTSE back to R1 from this morning's R2.
What would be good for the Bulls was if all the markets took
back the gap open, held on supports and then started to move
back up.
Will be interesting to see what happens if we hit last Fridays
close in US and UK. That will be the critical point for the rest of this
weeks direction in my opinion.

it really is worth it -475 at least!! HBOS is different, but I am
still looking for way above the current level - like 810p
GAA is being pegged back every time it gains ground, RTR is similiar
and seems to be in for negative territory today.
Good Luck melnibone, Zarif & others playing the Dow!!

I would like to know how the big buyers found out over the last couple of weeks before us small sharehoders.
Up again today by 4.7%
Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 15:42 - 41 of 61
two hours of the day(when the US is open), draw towards
the close. Meanwhile the S@P is trying to level out.
Could even see a flat finish at the 4347 area.

the Saddam euphoria (and if that's not spelt right phooey)
would be worth more of a prolonged FTSE hike - if it only ends
up a 6 hour wonder...well...pass me the wine bottle!!

and is now down 6%, whilst MKS is slowly clawing back
its losses as the FTSE drifts lower.
I wonder if all you MKS Bulls have got MKS right?
You are certainly doing OK on LLOY.
Melnibone.
Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 16:02 - 45 of 61
What do we do tomorrow if the S@P ends flat
but above the 1074/1075 level?
Decisions, decisions. Lol.
