HBOS are they worth 49p (HBOS)     

mitzy - 15 Sep 2008 11:16

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

The chart looks like one long suicide note.

Banks seem to have imploded bought lloyds at 218 and hbos at 167 probably too early

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 09:27 - 426 of 569

not so bright of me after all ..... very strange

Falcothou - 07 Oct 2008 09:29 - 427 of 569

RBS and Barc up the creek without a paddle

scotinvestor - 07 Oct 2008 09:35 - 428 of 569

uk will go bankrupt just like iceland

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 09:35 - 429 of 569

seemingly RBS and BARC have gone to the gov't for funding ..... BBC report i am told

Fantastic buying oppertunity for stocks, other than banks

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 10:54 - 431 of 569

total arseholes this gov't may be, but they will not allow either RBS or BARC to collapse ..... therefore, quite good argument that bank shares in general will bounce, though perhaps not these two ..... betting the financial sector as a whole (hope not hole!) could be the safer way to act

hlyeo98 - 07 Oct 2008 11:14 - 432 of 569

BARC has not go begging according to news

ptholden - 07 Oct 2008 11:25 - 433 of 569

Ahh, the market Guru Hlyeo offering advice to Cynic - haven't stopped laughing since I read that comment :-)

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 12:16 - 434 of 569

good morning Peter .... guess you must be back to the cold and wet and wind shortly ..... lovely golfing weather! ..... i shall now own up and admit i bought further at 135 for it is a racing certainty that rates will be cut and even more certain that neither RBS not BARC will be allowed to collapse

ptholden - 07 Oct 2008 14:03 - 435 of 569

Yes indeed Ricardo, not long to go now, hope the weather improves but I doubt it will. Good luck with the HBOS trade(s).

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 14:12 - 436 of 569

am pretty confident they will come good ...... banks in general have suddenly recovered sharply, though HBOS is lagging badly despite LLOY being much improved from its low

hlyeo98 - 07 Oct 2008 15:16 - 437 of 569

Now it's the time to buy at 123p

Clubman3509 - 07 Oct 2008 15:20 - 438 of 569

Can't blame the short sellers this time. It is good they are locked out otherwise I think they would have further destroyed SP of many banks yesterday, and today.

nordcaperen - 07 Oct 2008 15:23 - 439 of 569

just got in - missed all the action it seems !! Bloody hell, what can go wrong from here !!!
Cynic - I reckon if Lloyds tried renegotiating HBOS deal, we would have a complete meltdown on banking stocks - were near enough there as it is !! Its just a case of picking WHEN to jump in - wish I could call it right for once !!

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 15:28 - 440 of 569

strange that HBOS has been hit much harder than LLOY who are actually the ones said to be looking for gov't money!

Clubman3509 - 07 Oct 2008 15:31 - 441 of 569

Maybe they have had a run on savings accounts being closed as I have done today with Birmingham Midshires.

nordcaperen - 07 Oct 2008 15:35 - 442 of 569

If the short sellers weren't locked out it would be like Mad Max 3 out there !!!! The Country is on its arse - along with a few others ! Its mental, and there seems like there is nothing thats going to change it - think we better declare war on North Korea or Russia to get us out of this mess.

robertalexander - 07 Oct 2008 15:36 - 443 of 569

anyone think i am mad buying HBOS at 122p?

cynic - 07 Oct 2008 15:39 - 444 of 569

not at all ..... LLOY is currently 222, so even if the conversion is dropped to 0.6 = 133 for HBOS
