Today they have fallen 22% to a new low of 223p ..are they another Marconi..?



The chart looks like one long suicide note.

I think

At present prices HBOS is valued at 2.67 per share. It will no doubt change; which way though?!

if americans are following the same news about short selling than i think we can see another upsurge in the price which is only my view.

hbos were valued at 5 fairly recently and are profitable company.......5 billion i think

Yeah Lloyds got a bargain.

aye, as they know it will at least double, even treble in value in a few years time even from todays sp.
i'd have thought other banks would have capitulated 1st and not hbos.......barclays would be my bank to capitualate as it is in usa and needs about 5 billion to shore up

Smaller ones like BB. still look vulnerable.

As if !! The government wont let it happen - They will get bought out though (BB.) its obvious and they are a steal at present IMHO. Or even a merger ?? Bargain - just dive in you cant lose

In a quandry now with HBOS sold this morning at 251 should I buy back now it is going down

I wouldnt leave any cash in any shares over the weekend whatever you decide to do ! Anything could happen - its way too volatile, I might call it wrong but if them yanks take a drop we'll be in the sh*t - and they are dropping even though there up 3% they are well off the highs.

tricky decision but I would think yes as they're on the way up again

Lloyds look cheap - but too risky leaving in over weekend - might take a punt though , what the hell !

glad to say that having been too greedy yesterday, got out today at 250 ...... thank you, says the bank manager

Without wanting to rock the boat .....correct me if I'm wrong but the Isle of man has a weird status.....I'm not sure if it is part of the UK or even part of the EC.....I do know that it only pays 10% tax, that's why so many hedge funds and banks are based there; (ref 216).

I've never been to Scotland in my life but they say its gruesome.

where do u come from mitzy.......your credibility on this has been shattered for life......49p but by end of week almost 5 times the price.

uk will be bankrupt soon........just scottish oil thats subsidising england and all my illegal immigrants down there

so hornby is getting 2 million quid in shares...........unbelievable, sickening and obscene.........this man (if u can call him that) should be hung drawn and quartered for bringing down a profitable bank lasting more than 300 years......oh yeah, it was stupid yorkshire building society full of numpties on the board with no banking experience.
whole HBOS board should be in jail..........if we had someone like stalin who was a real leader and best project manager, this would never had happened.

about time we became communist in this country

i bet u aint got a clue where scotland is mitzy from your hysterical comments

EDITED MoneyAM

Never been there and not likely too... whare the hell is it..?
