I can't see the whole article but the last paragraph that I can see is: That wouldn't be my first choice of method for deflating the bubble but what do I know.

I had lenovo laptop with a noisy fan. Not easily accessible at all. Literally had to take everything out including screen to get to it. Thank god for youtube videos.

There is a bit of an uprising of loss-making zombies last few days. Lyft, Uber, Beyond Meat. Have they become profitable all of a sudden? Just joking - of course not.

Trying to stay relevant in the segment now completely dominated by Mercedes and various parts of VW. Presumably inspired by their previous generation competitor's Mitsubishi Evo FQ series.

I am almost £100 down. Was going to top up at $500 but it's still flying, so maybe at $600

JL card holders also get free coffee and cake every few months. I kept on getting it and never really done much shopping. The cafe is not bad I never even considered getting any food there which wasn't free. I do splash out on occasional Greggs but JL has airport prices in there.

In that hypothetical example, if Centrica did not go ex-dividend, it could have been be up to £1.08 or so instead. Therefore, the short position would have been down by roughly the same amount either way. Agree on Wolf and Tesla

Tesla today.. Wtf? It actually dropped pre-open but up and up now. Was going to add at 450 but maybe that's too early now

Just paid some dividend this morning on the CFD position! £0.03! But is that not cost neutral overall? If the index is not total return, then the index value is lower than it would be otherwise. So I may have paid the dividend but the overall position would have not changed because index value has been increased to account for accumulated dividend (if it was TR). What am I missing?

Thanks, SP. Quick plot of SOXX and S&P together on FT site does look very interesting. Think I need to stop reading contrarian sites/twitter feeds/posts for some balance!

I have joined! And already lost some money ) Need to decide when to double up. When S&P is another 5% up? (in GBP terms) This is a small 0.1 x S&P (~£250) position.

He followed up with some quite specific short term predictions: https://twitter.com/davehcontrarian?lang=en

Had a cold since Boxing Day. As I already had one a month ago, didn't think I was due another one so soon. Worse than usual - really struggling to breathe, and therefore sleep, so tired all the time. Every single cough and sneeze resonated with a headache. Not a fan of painkillers but just had to take paracetamol or lemsip continuously until today. Missed NYE party as didn't want to spread it, so on a bright side - avoided a day of hangover.
