Anyone keeping half an eye on stock and share prices today ?

Took a massive tumble yesterday due to falls in tech. stock and the fact 'predicted' sales of I-Phones/Samsung mobiles aren't as high as hoped.
($1000 a pop what were they honestly expecting ?)

But the charts today are all over the place.

@Picklebobble2 I'm suspecting that the central banks have been making exits from many positions since October

Yeah it's the Tech !!
Apple's 'Facial recognition' system isn't as good as hoped !
Sales have slumped.
That's cause a drop in microprocessing companies ! which in turn is affecting Intel/Nvidia etc....

@Picklebobble2 Plus all this talk of banning menthol cigarettes has caused a drop in some of the bigger cigarette companies !!

@Picklebobble2 That makes no sense to me. It probably won't happen, and if it does, immediate sales will shoot way up.

@cultofaction Or smuggling and black market trading will be the next big thing !

@Picklebobble2 It also just pushes production overseas. What a waste

@cultofaction Emerging Asian markets where the cost of living and production are far cheaper.
And the end of manufacturing jobs in the west.
