You are a brave man shorting Tesla with them entering the S&P 500 - which means many institutions HAVE to buy, as well as tracker funds and ETFs.

I will not be shorting Tesla until after it has entered the S & P 500.
Probably around Christmas hence why I quoted that it will be in the next few weeks.
 
My tips for 2021 are Syme (again), Vela and I am going to say Helium1 (if they get to drilling)
I’m in quite a few others but they’re my big 3
I’ve good hopes for EEE, Copl and maybe TOM

INRG on LSE, it is an ETF from Blackrock that invests in clean energy, it has had a phenomenal return and with Joe Biden about to invest Trillions in clean energy you can but hope.

I am very big in ARKK and ARKG on NYSE as well but not sure you will have access to these from the UK.

Exactly as SS1 says.
 
ARB, BCHS (in the course of my research into bitcoin I found these. Travelling like trains). EQT, SMT (done great, but how much is down to Tesla?).

PS I like the sound of INRG!

I am assuming by SMT you mean Scottish Mortgage Trust - didn't they dump billions of Tesla recently?

Who are EQT as I get quite a few coming up when I put that in?

👍
 
FTSE up another 3% today mid afternoon after a 1.5% rise on Monday.
Any pros on here got any insight into what is driving this
Pound seems to have dropped a little vs Euro after the Brexit deal - down at 1.10 again, is this expected, I thought no-deal being averted would strengthen pound vs euro?
 
I’m guessing the US election result is a factor. Additional fiscal stimulus in the offing if the Democrats gain control of the senate? Also oil companies are doing well following OPEC’s decision to restrict supply resulting in an increase in the price of oil.

Although Trump has signed off on digging up 80% of an Alaskan national park for oil permits
 
FTSE and other markets having a surge.
Oil prices rising and Bitcoin nearing a record high.

Although I am pleased with such rises although I cannot help but think this may end up boom and bust
 
When we had the dot-com boom we were told that it was a “new paradigm”, and that we were too stupid to understand it. And then the arse fell out of the share prices…you have to think that some day soon the market will have a “major adjustment” on Tesla
 
Don’t know much about Tesla to be honest, but my brother in law said the other day that they are basically a tech, and battery company that makes a few cars on the side?

I was isolating for 10 days and petrol went up 15p. Inflation is going to rocket soon and that will badly affect a lot of people.

The last 10-15 years this countries "economic success" was built on cheap as chips borrowing, inflated house prices and remortgaging. Inflation and interest rate rises ate going to be a brutal lesson, I see an almighty crash. It'll make the 2009 credit crunch look like a breeze. Low interest rates were a sticking plaster that's become the norm. Hopefully house prices will come back to realistic rates (in relation to salaries). If only we'd taken a leaf out of Norways book (Nigel Farage's brexit obsession) who kept their oil money for a rainy day. We squandered it on tax breaks here and there, so the plebs can buy shiny stuff and vote tory.

How's everyone doing ? Not great here but holding out for another 9 years, unless they go crazy.

Still well up, mainly due to Hurricane and price of oil. I expect they will get taken over in the New Year and hopefully see another rise.

BAE when Putin attacked Ukraine.

Aston Martin when they bottomed out recently, but will get off them soon as they are still a basket case.

Also advised friends to steer clear of Bitcoin and any associated funds & tokens. Some dangerous whales out there still pushing their ridiculous rhetoric (SBF, Saylor, Cathy Wood, £1m prediction etc). Hope people on here got off that particular bubble before it lost 80% value. I still don’t see the bottom for Bitcoin until circa $9k. Basically what it was before the world tried to get rich quick during Covid. It’s a shame because the blockchain tech is still sound and recent events will help bring in better regulation.

At least Tesla actually produce something. (And that stock will likely nosedive even further in 2023 with Musk’s added Twitter distraction.)

Basically a time for holding where you can and hoping the bear becomes a bull and inflation becomes more manageable worldwide. Not quite at the bottom yet imo. Then I’ll be back in for some old favourites.
 
I knew Tesla was a bubble and although I am still short I took some profits too early.

See my comments 5th January 2021!

Waiting for Bitcoin to fall below 12000 before I consider dipping my toes in again.
 
Only thing I ever invest in on the stock market is OXO and the company that makes those wooden things you put your head and arms through so kids can throw wet sponges at your face at a school fare.

Malced don’t invest in Heinz . The Mayonaise is horrible.

Both Barclays and Lloyds up nearly 15% this month.
I know dividends have an impact but are we finally seeing a movement on banking shares to reflect their true value?
