      Iceberg?
      Don't mention Icesave......Landsbanki......a minor shudder down my spine remembering how we had a large sum (between houses!) at risk back in the day...

          Any thoughts on the comments from the BoE Deputy - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c75kp1y43lgo
          Struck me as a bit of a nothing comment - “an adjustment at some point”, but not necessarily “today, tomorrow, in 12 months' time”.

          Is she trying to prepare us for a big crash in the next couple of years?
          Is she talking nonsense?!

          (meanwhile, have a great weekend all!)

            All I’ll sayMike, is the lady has worked at the BOE since graduation-she said the same in 24 and 25. Ask yourself why they say such things-high asset values create inflation. Economics at that level is theoretical and irrelevant to what we do. If she knew anything remotely correct she wouldn’t work at the BoE.

              Everyone has an opinion, some valid, some vacuous (mostly). The difference isn't hard to spot.

                Some perf figures:

                Cobens Tech YTD +17.8%
                Lifestyle +10%
                Index 100 +5.13%
                Equity +1.66%

                Nest Sharia +3%
                Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF +4.76%
                Fundsmith -7.3%
                ARK negative
                BIF Lusitania Tech -3%

                past performance is no indication of future returns.
