Speaker: I worked in the financial field for a long time and no, not really. What goes down comes up.
Speaker: To a certain degree, I mean if I'm going to be honest, I think there have been so many financial crisis in the world in the last five years. Is it going to be any more or less than the other ones? Ultimately the world still go around and the world will still continue growing. So I’m not overly concerned.
Speaker: How the markets are doing there [in China], will have an impact globally and will obviously have an effect on us here as well. Yes, there has been lot of discussion about it, I mean it is a concern I would say.
Speaker: Well yes, I think everybody is concerned. It doesn’t really affect me, because I've been retired for a long time and I have no shares, so nothing to do with stock market. But I'm sure it will affect a lot of people.
Speaker: To be honest, I don’t watch news the, so I am not really bothered about it.
Speaker: The Chinese market will obviously be felt by the British economy. That will effect -- I mean the people here they will be worrying about their pensions and their income.
Speaker: People want to have confidence when they are investing and you know bad news, bad publicity, anything negative people want to stay away from.
Speaker: Probably, but I think it may affect the Chinese more than anybody else because people with shares in China could be big organizations or people who would speculate of course it will affect them. But it's not to say must, when your pension is on the line, isn’t it.
Speaker: You know lots of people don’t invest in China anyway because it's not that easy, you’ve got to go through specialist share market to invest in China. So either you invest in a specialist company or but for individuals invest in China it is very, very difficult. It's not easy, so I mean the biggest issue with China is products and export and import, you know what comes and goes basically. Not investments from here.
Speaker: I think probably in the last 10 years people have shied away more and more from their longer-term investments purely because the markets are so volatile. When is a good time to get involved now, just when things certainly are not picking up, it will drop off again. So who knows, but yes, they must have some sort of impact.
