Those lads on CNBC would try and pump and dump oil & sand on the saudis if they could.

What are peoples thoughts on Irish shares? Ryanair is the only one I've seen mentioned here. Are many people invested in other companies? The big guns of CRH, Kerry, Kingspan, Smurfit have all had 20-30% haircuts recently. Anyone buying?

Kerry might interest me. They were going from strength to strength before all this

I have intended to buy Vanguard VWRA (Acc fund) for some time now. Apart from trying to catch a falling knife at the moment, is there any underlying reason why people should not buy an ETF now that is different to trying to buy a normal share (Kerry Group, Twitter, CRH etc.)?

Thank you.

Kingspan has had a remarkable run, constantly beating expectations this past five years, debt is relatively modest too

Trump announced a nationwide rollout of testing yesterday and namechecked Wallgreens, Target, CVS and Wal-Mart would be setting up temporary drive-through testing facilities in their stores. He also namechecked Roche Holdings several times as being the developer and suppliers of the test kits. Be interesting to see if these places (particularly Roche) see a bounce of the back of that

He also said that the drive-through sites would be managed by a website built by 1,700 Google engineers.... nobody at Google knew anything about it... but there is a sister company of Google about to start testing a diagnosis tool for some local community......

In the local news here in Switzerland, there has been no mention of Roche doing much, but Novartis will start field testing their kit next week. The expectation is that it relatively easy to mass produce and test results should be available in half the time.

Trump will do his best to talk up the market, so do your homework before taking any actions.

At that amount, probably only DeGiro makes sense from a fees perspective. I use them and recommend it.

He hasn’t been CEO in years anyway, can’t see it having much impact. Stepped down from the board of Berkshire Hathaway also

In the same boat as yourself, and I've been messing around on Revolut. The companies offered are limited to those on the New York Stock Exchange I believe, but it's user friendly and you get three commission free trades per month ($1 fee for any trade thereafter)

Just to add, seems Roche are working on a machine that will also test faster and more importantly does not require so much manual effort in the process. But neither company are a point where this stuff can start rolling of the production lines.

...Fed cut interest rates to 0%, and a €500 QE package...This will probably be the last action by them...I'd say there will be a good bounce because of this, then once that slows, I can only see one direction for the next while...

greenfield21

Was'nt expecting that even though I was expecting a complete meltdown tomorrow ha, maybe even more at next week's meeting. Futures in half an hour will give us an idea for tomorrow.

...Half of this is correct, the part about a good bounce is expensively wrong...
