Gold was a mere 53%. And yes, it has continued – £1,000 of silver on 1/1/25 is now £2,960 – I am becoming speechless. We have trimmed some of ours but still hold over £3million but as noted, we can’t hold it any longer as […]

We trust this namesake won’t be doing the same with markets! Helen was not so impressed it followed right after Hurricane Helene as well. This is a once-in-a-lifetime storm, we were told and as ever, the risk to life the biggest fear but […]

]]> The simmering stock market pot subsides https://www.miltonpj.net/2024/08/16/simmering-stock-markets-fail-to-boil-over/ Fri, 16 Aug 2024 15:46:45 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11325 I am pleased to report that the rumbles in markets proved short-lived.

You may think that I am unable to reform my approach, though I hope that the style of writing does not treat you as green around […]

Are the lunatics running the asylum, as speculative fervour has truly taken hold… there we are – the psychology of markets – I mean the masses? That’s not ‘investment’ – it’s sheer speculation, flows of money and the fear of missing […]
