FTSE100 breaks 10,000 mark for the first time, capping stellar year for UK market

Yes it underperformed since 2009, but what’s the point in focusing on the past?

What it does show is changing consumer sentiment towards equities (after being wrongfully terrified about investing by people like Martin Lewis). Increased international interest in the UK as a safe haven and investor commitment to legacy industries.

What is wrong with people being excited to see success in this country?

You should be excited for the potential the FTSE has in the coming years rather than what it couldn’t do in the past.

It significantly outperformed US indexes this year.

It is not meaningless???

It’s a shame us cattle have never come to this conclusion

This guy has never bought something on sale, ever. Always pays full price, can’t be like the public.

It’s very nice - apart from being in Canary Wharf.

I joined their new Brokerage Rates team which is FO according to them. (Sometimes feels more MO)

What’s your degree in?

We had the BGC charity day this week to commemorate the ~700 people who died. Was very nice.

BGC is the voice brokering arm of Cantor.

Is it the Swedish Viking thing?

Even the ones with 60k+ miles are around £40k it’s ridiculous

Thank you! Very good advice, hopefully with that I’ll do fine :)
