i confess that i'm steering clear of all financial stocks, for there are regular reports of yet more very expensive skeletons falling out of the cupboard
jp morgan was the latest with a new set-aside of $1bn for fines for some sort of rate rigging
though other banks have not (yet) been implicated, this sort of stuff inevitably affects them all

effects of collapsing oil price
up to now, we have only had anecdotal evidence and whatever we have read in the press
however, i can now report first hand from our people in usa/canada where a couple of mining/oil "serious" clients will be returning kit due to mothballing of projects
those clients will not be in isolation, and of course there is and will be further repercussions not only in usa but also all over the world where these activities take place
=============
if you're a bull for 2015, i'ld be very very wary
if you play the stock indices, then it could be a wild time as i think there's still hefty volatility to come

One for the candlechart specialists. Ibex Global (IBEX) has not produced one positive candle since mid-December 2013. Downbets are taken online at Spreadex or by phone at IG.
I have been short of it in the past, but after closing my position last August, I forgot about it till this week. Share price dropped a further 6.3% this morning.
They operate call centres in various parts of the world but are a tiny player in this field (market cap below £38m now)
Chart fell heavily in March and October (HY and FY Results).

Its on my radar, at 240-235 I'd expect a bounce. Looking to buy long and play the range. current sp puts it on a p/e of 13. 2014 operating profit 169.7m, net company worth book 543.6. so at a p/e of 12 market cap comes in at 2597m currently 1824m off a declining operating profit but still makes me feel both technical's and fundamentals are on for this bounce.
