Hmmm interesting looking at DOW futures 50 plus and a load of market news to come this afternoon.
IF and I say IF this news is positive it could set us up here in the UK for the start of the Xmas bounce on friday and right on cue from last 2 years, so if things pan out, a late buy or two this afternoon ........stocks that follow indicies eg, ARM may prove a good trading set up going forward.
Things could go tits up mind.

OCDO + 6%, yep Cyners, very nice and looks at the moment my thinking in post 2422 was spot on although we will take a good half day to catch the Yanks as usual.
AHT and ARM usually follow the FTSE 100.
In AHT.
ARM may follow.

You look at the Yanks and the Germans indicies roaring away then look at ours and wonder if a COG is stuck or something. Give me strength.
Its alway s the same, and then we wake up the day after but then get caught with some shitty report at lunch time coming out of Wall Street.

as i was saying .......
dow now only +120 at 17655 and its been at least 100 points higher
as a result, cash ftse is now down 45 at 6430
it'll be very interesting to see how dow closes as that could have a major influence on tomorroiw's markets everywhere

Still bullish cyners hardly put a dent in my folio this morning.
Just think Santa is a tad late this year. Probably forgot to put his beard on.

Chris I kicked ITV out yesterday at a small loss.
Just been looking on advfn everybodys panicking.........way overdone.
Greek election next wed I think. Should be positive.
Only other worry is SP of oil, where the risk is Fracking Companys in the US underwritten by Big Bank lending could and some will go tits up those who are marginal providers leaving Banks with Bad Debt.
So its all down to the BANKS yet again. But its not a recession ,certainly not yet.
Still feel we will get the santa rally a tad late but at the moment market is awash with just fear, and fear of fear.
Sentiment will change, customers should benefit from low oil prices. Chinese may provide stimulus, even lower rates again.
Im cool, its not worrying me, just got to keep calm and wait to pick up all the bargains this silly hysteria will present.
Just got to grin and bare it a little longer.
