  1. Wallstreet scurge and stain against humanity. 

    This may be a one off year but lets act, hope and demand for better – for as many as possible rather than just for the leachers in the 0.1% of global population hoarding 50%+ of the global wealth.

  2. A bit unrelated, but I learned today that the London Stock Exchange was originally a coffee shop that started posting the prices of commodities for its patrons back in the late 17th century. It’s a cafe that just got out of hand.

    oh don’t….we’re going to have Starmer and Reeves gumming at this news and pawning it off as their bi-product.

    AI bots gaming the market is not a sucess in my opinion

    Trump tanked the SP500 when he started with those tariffs. I know cos my returns were +£200 when he got elected and then it dropped to -£100-130 and it took most of the year to recover after he started his fuckery.

    That said, I don’t think the FTSE100 will progress too much.
