Hi all,

Just thought I'd let you know that I've just had an email from Saxo Bank (my trading platform) that they're re-rating a lot of shares across most worldwide markets on 14 Dec.

Nearly all of the changes mark an increase in the risk rating (ie more margin required) which usually means that they're expecting an increase in volatility. The link below has the list for everything affected (pick your exchange and then the share) and you can see it's not just the minnows - some very big fish on that list.

This is exclusive to Saxo as far as I know but they're very good at helping clients to manage their risk (unlike IG who like clients to take more risk!). Just FYI. Here's the link - I hope it works!
