I'm sure you're right Cynic - one could make some profits on this one on a daily basis, and maybe I'll try it again some other day. But I'd have to remain chained to my screen and am going out later - just daren't take the risk.

Northern Rock UK's Darling 'can't be certain' when credit market instability will end UPDATE
(adds more comment)
LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistair Darling
has said that he "can't be certain" when the current instability in the credit
market will end.
Still, there has been some progress as liquidity has increased, he added in
a statement to Parliament relating to Northern Rock's financial problems.
The mortgage lender saw a run on deposits last month after it emerged that
it had sought cash from the Bank of England.
Proposing legislation to introduce new regime when a bank runs into trouble
would mean that depositors are "insulated from a bank that has failed", greater
certainty, and that they would be able to receive compensation quicker, he
added.
On the fate of Northern Rock, "any future solution must lie with the
company," he said.
He also called for a review of the tripartite system, which includes the
Bank of England, the Treasury and the Financial Services Authority, and governs
the financial industry.
"We need to review how the framework is operated," he said, adding that this
will include a review of the rules on swift takeovers of banks.
The FSA, he said, will review the UK liquidity regime.
Darling also said he has a mortgage at Northern Rock although no savings.
The head of the nation's purse strings said he will pursue the matter at an
international level. At the G7 meeting at the end of October, Darling plans to
propose three areas of reform: faster implementation of international liquidity
regulations; setting up an IMF early warning system; and a European agreement to
strengthen financial stability agreements.

BoE recalls stability expert to help with Northern Rock crisis
LONDON (Thomson Financial) - The Bank of England has recalled a retired
financial stability expert to personally advise governor Mervyn King following
the Northern Rock fiasco.
The Financial Times said the reappointment of Alastair Clark, who retired
this year from his role advising King on the financial sector, will fan
speculation that the BoE is struggling to cope with the fallout from the crisis.
The Bank of England confirmed Clark's re-appointment as advisor but did not
give any details. The FT understands the job will be free-ranging and not
full-time.
The BoE has come under criticism for its conduct in the Northern Rock
crisis, which saw the first run on a UK bank in more than 150 years after the
Newcastle-based lender was forced to apply for billions of pounds in emergency
loans.
