I came here for learn about the 1929 LSE crash too. It is mentioned in the Wall Street crash aricle that it follows the LSE crash. But what happened here and why? 217.197.186.180 (talk) 23:47, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Total Market Cap
editSource is incorrect?? Statista reports similar numbers but in pounds, perhaps it has not been converted? 2600:1012:B025:3BFD:2570:FDC0:C34B:AA9 (talk) 20:17, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
My word is my sword
editI understand originally this phrase was used to trade in the LSE, before ticker, technlogie, etc. Is that correct? 187.136.253.97 (talk) 15:58, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
- @187.136.253.97 I'm afraid I can't answer your question but I have a question: what is your source for ‘my word is my sword’? I thought ‘dictum meum pactum’ translates as ‘my word is my bond’ (using a little poetic licence and my limited Latin; ‘pactum’ suggesting ‘pact’)? I looked it up in my Latin dictionary to make sure. It doesn't have it as a phrase but the translation option yielded ‘my word is my agreement’, close enough. Google translate yielded ‘said my agreement’ (which I think is rather literal, word by word and poor; I've found Google Translate to be weak on phrases in general and particularly for Latin). ‘Dictum’ does translate as ‘said’, but also ‘saying’, ‘remark’, ‘observation’, ‘utterance’, ‘something said’ (the latter all nouns) &c, ‘sword’ is ‘gladius’ in Latin.
