I am confused. Can I claim PIP for that?Markets are nervous.Should we all be buying gilts as the US seems to be finally buying the 10 year treasury?From a low of 3.92% to a high of 5.368% on th 7th of October. Then all of a sudden it is 4.957% intra day.AI is probably managing these trades!The word crash/correction is on every finance channel, could the algo learn from this?When you look at charts 50% downside in any stocks is possible.All of a sudden I like cash and the idea of spending it and enjoying things.I think Monday I will go and look at a new car or nearly new.
