Q: Dear 5i team,
Thank you for the Special Report. Could you kindly confirm a few things about the graphs in it, please? My broker account doesn’t show graphs like yours, so what is the blue line and what is the brown filled-in background- I was thinking high and low stock prices, but noted the left and right y axis are different so I think I’ve not got that right. And how do you read the dark blue graph at the bottom- what is the stock’s ‘relative strength’ relative to?
Thanks so much!

Q: Hello 5i Gurus,
The central bank authorities at the Bank of England and the ECB have, this past week given authorization to all banks (domiciled in the UK or Europe) that they will be allowed to release ALL of their strategic counter cyclical funds that they normally hold in reserve. From what I remember, this would be several hundreds of billions of pounds or euros. Question is: Does the US and Canada have similar "counter cyclical funds" (not sure if this is the correct terminology)? that they can use to support the economy temporarily?

Q: Can you comment on the repo purchases that have been ongoing and have ramped up recently in the US. Does this add another layer of concern to the markets or just what needs to be done in times like these? Is there any holding that might benefit from this?
