The FTSE

I'm not one for picking out specific shares so invest each month on the S&P500, I also put more into the Vanguard life strategy 100% equity fund each month. Planning to start using some monthly spare cash to lump in on both.
 
Not FTSE but those Tesla shares have jumped from 108 to 246 in several months. Everyday they seem to go up 4 or 5%.
Yeah, I bought at around $130, sold yesterday at $247, but some of my tech funds have them so still have an interest. I also have Microsoft and Alphabet shares, both up 28% and 20% respectively since last 6/7 weeks…

258 now and just keeps rising. 140% up since January. When they tanked too just over 100 not long ago I was tempted but all the news was bad. Mistake :)

Yeah. I’ve never invested in Tesla directly before, but at 130 I figured it was a no brainer. I think there is a decision on US interest rates today with many suspecting they will be unchanged…if that’s the case it should drive shares higher. Likewise, there has been a lot of good news around Tesla this last week or so. The agreements with GM and Ford Rgds charging network. Their sales figures in China and UK (up over 100% yoy etc etc)….

274 now pal. I think it's had 23 out of the last 25 days positive. 153% increase since January, another 5% again yesterday. Just seems relentless.

What happens to the world stock markets if ruSSia collapses?
It will be topsy-turvy turvy for a short while as the ramifications are worked over and after that the markets will get back to their normal pattern of behaviour. It always happens and as long as the fundamentals remain in place such as shortages of food and places to live then human nature will continue to exercise its normal pattern of the battle between supply and demand. Shortages of commodities in demand will always lead to high prices.
 
landmark moment for me today as my ISA finally passed its december 2021 high by a massive 0.1%, can I relax now?
 
Better now. Decent bump today with the BoE holding rates, but still expect the base rate to be cut and a couple of banks given notice of cuts to savings rates from May. Stock and shares ISAs going up, savings interest going down.
 
It’s been a good few months for investors.

America’s new darling stock Nvidia is now up 90% YTD and a huge 1964% over 5 years! Artificial Inyelligence leading the US markets higher.
