Thoughts


A pretty volatile week on the equity market.

Again, over the pond both the S&P 500 and the Dow made new all time highs.

The FTSE was weak on Friday, after crude plunged on Thursday evening. The FTSE broke below 6700 very briefly in the opening minutes, and later expiry was pretty volatile. A hard day, all in all.

Over the week, the FTSE lost 53 points, or 0.78 %.

Made a few very poor exits, leaving plenty of profit on the table, but still ahead of my 2.5 % benchmark.
 
Looking forward to more opportunities next week.




Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
