Lol Testex.
Anyone stumbling across this thread will think we're
a couple of perverted nutters. :-)
Ref your earlier Dow question, DOW and S@P are trading within
the range they traded in on Friday after they settled from
the strong open.
Need to watch for a break from these ranges for direction IMHO.
Maybe the ISM figures will give direction. Market is still squaring
positions in readiness for the Easter break, IMHO, where it wants
to end up requires a Delorean to find out prior to the event. ;-)
Melnibone.

I always read your interesting thoughts and thread croc. Just 2 points: Any takeover of Sainsburys will have to get past the massive holding of the Sainsbury family.The family may be happy to collect the 6% div and tolerate the appalling performance of the executives.PHS is a service company busy buying up smaller cleaners etc like Mitie and Rentokill but the sare price is stuck in treacle.
