  • I'm giving up this prediction lark. I go low, the market picks up. I go high, the market slumps. 

    I blame Boris. 
    I"m with you.  Maybe we should sell our predictions to the market as sentiment analysis.  
  • Where was the index at the start of this round? 
  • Think it closed at 7541 om 30/12.
  • Where was the index at the start of this round? 
    Opened on 3rd January at 7451.74, so not too far from where it is today.

    Opened on 3rd January at 7451.74, so not too far from where it is today.
    UK & US stockmarkets have been very flat so far this year. FTSE100 down 1%, Dow Jones up 2.85% whilst S&P500 up just 0.3%. 

    Europe a lot better with Germany up 13%, France 11% & Spain 14%......making the broad Eurostoxx up 13%. 
  • The S&P500 has been up just under 15pc YTD @golfaddick?
