    Investment Thoughts

    If you are an Investor in UK Stocks and if you had purchased £1,000 of Northern Rock shares one year ago it would now be worth £4.95.

    If you had chosen to invest in HBOS, earlier this week your £1000 would have been worth £16.50.

    £1000 invested in XL Leisure would now be worth less than £5,

    but if you had bought £1,000 worth of Tennents Lager one year ago, drank it all, then took the empty cans to an aluminium re-cycling plant, you would get £214.

    So, based on the above statistics the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and re-cycle.

    P.S. I wonder how the price of whisky bottles is moving?

      LOL - I Remember the same analysis from the dot-bust days, funny to see the story make the rounds again 7 years later. I guess this is the definition of a Cyclical Market.

          I work across the road from Lehman Brother's UK office. Dead as a door nail in there now. On Monday all the bars in Canary Wharf were rammed with everyone who had been fired. I heard it was a good night to go on the pull with all the pissed secretaries around.

                    Retired the top 12.  Need a new dirty dozen.  

                    Update: The new list is coming together: Nong Poy, Anita, Nok, Gif, Liisa Winkler, Kay, Nina Poon.  Is it possible to find 5 more?  Until then, GGs:  Jessica Alba, Yuko Ogura, Zhang Ziyi, Maggie Q, and Gong Li.

                      I work across the road from Lehman Brother's UK office.
                      A real quote read on Bloomberg the other day:

                      Lehman's Landlord in London said, it is not too bad if Lehman goes bankrupt, because the rent is insured by AIG.

                      LOL!!!
