Hasn’t the border been secured? 

 

Thank you. I concede, they are undoubtedly two strong achievements, and much needed unfortunately. They're probably exceptions though, unless you can suggest anything else that he's done to benefit us, the average hardworking people, or the planet?

 

It's a shame that Trump couldn't personally be a bit more assertive with his best friend Putin, rather than bringing him in from the cold with the red carpet treatment.

all the power used by cloud data centres to store everyone's old emails that they will never read again.

I'm doing my bit towards total destruction with 6000 stored. Corporations must have just loads

Emails are amateur local league stuff. It's all about digital photos and videos if you really want to max out the clouds.

All those that are worried about Trump

You'll have to wait til they've written into the Guardian and asked how they should respond to such a question. Check back in a week or two to see what witless retort they're instructed to go with.

So with the markets rebounding you've actually made more than you've lost on your investments?

I remember talking with you on here about investments in March or April 2020 - just after oil had hit negative $40!

I had bought some Royal Dutch Shell for my ISA, but then bottled it and swapped it into BT - you said 'that kinda sucks' and were obviously much more of an optimist than me.

the two charts of RDSA and BT are below also, at the time RR was bombed out due to aviation stopped. You said about employer shares at the time - I remember you doing some tech job for an oil services firm, those pandemic shares must have gone up fourfold. Totally jealous

 

valuations seem stretched to me now, most of my ISA is in 30 year gilts yielding about 5.4%, never gonna get rich staying out of the market, but there hasn't been a crash since the pandemic. Would be good for me if there was a crash on Trump's watch, while I'm all bonds. (so they cut rates to the floor and bond prices go up) Here's hoping for the biggest crash of all time
