        I was a little previous. On the whole
        I had a nice balanced portfolio and on holiday this week. Had two shares which I had 15k in slide a third in two days. Bailed on the way down taking a stinking loss and they continued to tank even further below where I sold.

          This has all been caused by the debacle on Sunday/Monday by the US. Politics

            Yep. Only this time around there will be no TARP fund.

              Glad I haven't got any money.
              Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                Based on your previous posts, your contract and work history and credit worthiness I have been out to the open markets and we are offering to lend at 1200%.

                You have been given a ZZZ rating

                  Not really today's panic is following the markets final realisation that the ECB are a bunch of clueless muppets running around like headless chickens with no control over the actual purse holder (Germany).

                  Its not helped by the realisation that Spain is bankrupt and can't make a decision until December after the general election and Italy ain't much better off.

                  Europe looks like a seriously dead duck and I think I'll hunt outside banking for my next contract.
