Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

Its copium. Everyone knows a big recession is coming if the tariffs are not removed ASAP.
Seeing 7% swings on the S&P based on some hoax tweets as well that is not a normal market. Algo traders are out of control.

It can sit in stocks and shares ISA uninvested and it will still gain the same interest, on T212 anyway after you enable it.

Yup... There will be a lot of voilitility whilst all this tariff crap is going on.. S&P500 is going to be up and down like a yo-yo... For example... It. Might have regained the losses from yesterday, but there is more trade war to happen yet before this calms down.
It'll probably go down 8%+ again when the EU announce their war plan officially.
Good point... I already have my cash ISA with T212... And I set up an S&s ISA 2 days ago... So I think I'll do that... Put 20k uninvested cash in the S&S ISA until I decide to push the button on what ETF I want.
I'm glad I didn't just whack it all into VWRP yesterday!

T212 would be your best bet.
I wouldn't buy just now.. It's gonna be really messy for a week or two at least.
Stick it in a cash ISA.. Or as above... Put it in a stocks and shares ISA but leave it 'uninvested' so you get interest but your not exposed to the current turbulence.
Then buy stocks via an ETF when things start to change direction... Which won't happen whilst Trump is having a melt down an the rest of the world retaliates.
I wouldn't be buying stocks right now as in my opinion it's going to get worse before it gets better.
Equally if I was already invested I wouldn't be selling either unless I had no choice... I. E a personal financial emergency.
Basically my advice is do nothing, right now unless you have to.
But that's just my opinion.

No, he got a peace deal in 24 hours. Easiest deal in history.
A classic Casey of cutting your nose off to spite your face.
*if we assume Trump is acting for his citizens.
My assumption is is he's just manipulating the market to make money for him and his allies, who are..
*checks notes * Russia and... That's it... I'm out of ideas.

Good idea, buying shares in this environment is to risky for the none professional.
This will pull down shares, when margins are called in.

this migh be a silly question but do we need the US market?
i mean if they want to be silly then we need to program them out, they are the powerhouse manufacturing. they have some tech startups ect sure but so do other places

Just seen a great quote online from Professor Derek Beach at Aarhus University in relation to Trump's economic policies : "It's like playing chess with a seagull. The seagull knocks over the pieces, ***** on the board, and flies home and says it won."
Iam just saving cash to buy in the future when it all calms down. I dislike short term and prefer mid term. I don't have access to instant information, but delayed information.
Lots of US companies are in lots countries sometimes with a big local workforce making it difficult to exclude. Plus some US companies allow access to smaller local companies which allows them sell to the public.
Therefore being integrated into the host economy. So it will be difficult to isolate.
The global financial system revolves around the US. The treasury market is the centre of it all.
In the long run, no we don't. But given that the stock market functions by rules made up by the US, for the benefit of the US, it's going to painful in the short to medium term until a new world order is established.
