Bought some SOLA at 475p so hoping for a quick profit tomorrow before the downward slide again!
Presumably it is going to be the Nikkei which is going to affect us first & then the DOW. Double whammy. Lets hope the far east have a good session overnight.

first things first .... F/E will follow USA .... Dow currently up about 100 from its low earlier today = down about 45 from its close last night ...... provided Dow does not have a late sell-off (surge would be lovely), then i would be surprised if F/E also did not stage some kind of rally ..... but be aware that it may be fragile and short-lived

Sorry, yes DOW then Far East.
I agree absolutely. Finger is ready on the sell button!

Dow struggling more than i hoped, and just about holding above 12100 (closed Friday at 12188), though was down on "prognostications" as far as 11962 earlier today

well done Money+ ..... now watch very carefully and set stop loss ...... you could make quite a lot here today, but lose it very quickly .... today's bounce will inevitably be fragile ...... you do not need to read any entrails to KNOW there will be further falls ahead before the markets genuinely bootom out.

clot, but sympathies ... made a bigger error with Dow a few days ago! ..... if this level (for SOLA) does not hold, then 400 may well be on the cards ..... Isaiah speaks again!

bend over then you will assuredly have increased your capacity for surprise
btw, surely bin gespannt is perfect tense and therefor in arrears (so to speak!) rather than in the future

Id be rather cauitious of the audited accounts out early April.
Margins
And Negative Cash flow
Could lead to further falls in this one.
We should also get tho know the real amount of profit it as made and that looks down on analyst forecast no matter how you read the latest trading statement.

Difficult decisions to make here---if I sell I get clobbered by Gordon so I'd thought I'd hold for the 2 year period maybe deprive Gordon but sp might be much lower!!

Up 25p in 30 minutes. How the hell are we meant to predict that rise??? Even Mystic Meg & Septic Peg couldn't have forecast that!

sp has now recovered to be smack on 50 dma
as mentioned elsewhere, I still have strong doubts as to the sustainability of the general recovery so ...... if rally peters out, then 50 dma will have shown itself as some sort of resistance ..... if the rally continues, then next hurdle will be 25 dma at 550.

not at the moment though it is a stock i have traded very succesfully over the last few months ..... though the chart pattern is not discouraging, i do not trust this rally one little bit, and if there is another sell off in the very near future (as i think is far more likely than not), the likes of SOLA will be disporportionately whacked - again!

DOW - after a very bright early indication of +20 or so, this has now been firmly reversed to show -30 ...... after several days of strong rises, a retracement is certainly on the cards.
i post the above on SOLA as if Dow retreats, so will FTSE and shares like SOLA are likely to be far more vulnerable than the average ...... that is why i have still to be tempted back in

sorry to report that SOLA is looking tired to soggy and has taken a sudden lurch south ..... look (hope) fro support at about 465
