Thoughts


A quiet week's trading. 

Equity markets in the US made new all time highs, with the SPX closing above 3700 again. The FTSE is still well below the highs of summer 2019.

Next week is a shortened one due to the Christmas holidays.
 
And we still have the BREXIT negotiations ongoing, it's unbelievable that this has taken four and a half years...



Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
