Especially UK? What makes you think she'll have any negative effect on non-UK stocks?

She'll devalue the pound and make non-sterling assets look better, almost certainly.

Removing So much wealth from the country. (paying for Fossil fuels) is going to cause so many UK businesses to fall away that the impact will be substantial.

Banks with mortgages defaults
House builders with hugely impacted profits
Manufacturing slow down
Etc etc

That's my view anyway

Just easier to be out at the moment

I was interested in why you think non-UK stocks would crater, which was implied by your post?

The rest of the world knows we're a basket case already, Truss being anointed doesn't change anything...
 
Would be interested any thoughts on Zim integrated shipping, is it worth a gamble?

0.75 P/E, 68.89% dividend recently payed, 8.3 billion EBITDA, 3.3 billion cash, 4.5 billion debt.

Is being based in Israel the risk, is shipping a tough market or is it 25% (Israel tax) on recent dividend payout.

I cannot see why it is so low and still dropping while having decent balance sheet.
 
I bought into ZIM about 3 weeks ago before they posted their results (which were slightly off target but still brilliant) they rose initially then have dropped badly starting Friday. Inexplicable unless there's something I've completely missed.
 
Anyone got links to decent learning materials for this sort of thing.

Have looked into it a bit already of course. Currently trying to work out the best platform.

Any obvious ones for someone dipping their toes in ? (In it for long term)

The Naked Trader books are somewhat old now but I remember it explaining the fundamentals very well, and the fundamentals haven't changed at all so. Looks like it was updated in 2019 too (5th Ed) so quotes/graphs should still be relevant.

FX Evolution produce a daily market video on Youtube which is really informative but they don't ever tell you when to buy or sell, they just go over concepts and talk about theories. I watch it every morning with my cuppa. Might be a good place to start.

Very much doubt it, Feds are going to keep raising interest rates and keep them there for most of 2023, USD strength will still prevail globally.

We are headed towards parity and possibly below with current macro-fundamentals in play
 
Thanks for the replies guys, nice blend of books, web/youtube. Been thinking about this for a while just had to wait until we moved house and some things settled.
Read that Rich Dad Poor Dad while on holiday and got me thinking about it again, was something I picked up years ago but not got round to reading. Figured I should find some decent books and remembered browsing this thread a few times.

If you want a breakdown of the US stock market from 2008 to today then would recommend this video, everything is playing out to the T:

I looked at these.
Apparently it may be dropping as shipping has peaked. Basically pricing in a more normal scenario.

Makes sense. In a global recession less will be shipped.
 
Really tempted with RR atm, down at 77p. I just have this terrible feeling it will sink into the 60p range within the next few months. Still suffering some supply chain issues.
 
I can't fake any optimism today (although us futures not terrible) ,just strapping myself in for another plunge and burying my head in a sand dune until it picks up again

How old are you/what's your life stage?
 
I threw a few quid into Cineworld today as a punt fully expecting to not get anything back, but had some cash sat in a trading account doing nothing that wasn't enough to do much meaningful with.
