Massive crowding in these names and likely to be some margin compression ("we will be watching you"), did you expect this to just keep going up forever?

That's a nice view, but does it beat the view of a screen showing the NWG chart?

what happened to YCC?

btw lime and limestone goes into every industrial process and construction activity you can think of

Some people were pounding the table. By some people I mean you, and me.

its weird seeing you here

Not strictly German (30% exposure), Sigmaroc is the one if you're an aggregates appreciatooor. High FCF yield, trough in european construction cycle, killer ceo, screens cheaper than anything comparable on valuation.

What's the argument to say E won't fall further and multiple wont fall back to say 18x forward to reflect the new reality?
March 11, 2025 at 3:08 PM
It'll be ok, haven't you heard? Manufacturing is coming back to America. Cars, widgets you name it - the factory line will be waiting for all those high value service and tech jobs.
March 10, 2025 at 3:31 PM
yep, agreed

what was the difference in cap weighted earnings growth versus equal weight as they were diverging up to that point? probably not like what is has been in the past ten years. concentration is a bit of a red herring too as @samro.bsky.social points out - each mag is actually several companies
February 12, 2025 at 3:05 PM
thats a pretty crappy rote these days. the discount to bv probably not too far off given that, and the fact that it's accident prone...

-15% later and today's results don't inspire

What about bid-ask spreads, are they within the norm?
January 10, 2025 at 10:56 AM
fwiw. if this is correct, like isnt the original mandate of the BoE to ensure functioning gilts market.... also like they know long term rates are under their control if they so choose right?
January 10, 2025 at 10:45 AM
Is it ordely though? I've seen something on liquidity in gilts having become an issue again but source was a bit questionable so not sure.
January 10, 2025 at 10:41 AM
Not seeing much discussion about the tension here between government and central bank. What's the justification for continuing QT at this juncture, for example? BoE's general attitude is quite cavalier with regards to the market just having its way with long term interest rates causing a doom loop.
January 10, 2025 at 10:14 AM
not sure what high rates are supposed to achieve at this point besides continuing to kill residential construction and making rental inflation worse
January 9, 2025 at 10:48 PM
the way out is reclaim control over interest rates, restart QE and lower rates
January 9, 2025 at 10:41 PM
they don't need to intervene, open mouth operation will stop the rot
January 8, 2025 at 8:24 PM
yeah the problem is they're also discarded when they aren't the result of bad faith processes and simply labelled as bad faith, moreover, it's not a court of law.

What's not great is people (particularly fed members) thinking that speculative stuff matters more than the real economy.
December 23, 2024 at 4:00 PM
ah well never mind about that, fed's got to be hawkish because of some speculation in risk assets right?

'I'm pretending to be dumb while actually being smarter than everyone' routine was amusing the first 500 times. Now it's just lazy contrarianism in a party hat.
@robinwigglesworth.bsky.social will you be issuing another I'm sorry your number went up piece if US equities continue their run?
