ANYONE KNOW WHY THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND IS SHOWING A SHARE PRICE AROUND THE 6.59 MARK WHEN IT WAS 18.00 OR SO THE OTHER WEEK OR AM I GOING STRANGE?????????????

Your previous prediction from can't remember how lonf ago looks on the cards here.

I also think 25p and that will be time to buy.

Britain will launch its biggest retail bank rescue on Monday when the four largest, HBOS, Royal Bank of Scotland, Lloyds TSB and Barclays, ask for a combined 35 billion pound lifeline, the Sunday Times reported.

there is a much more in the report on Reuters and it does not make comfortable reading

I agree poo bear 25p is probably the low.

Buying opportunity on Monday

Good that RBS now has funds with share holders benifiting

If 25p occurs, I'm buying in bulk

Government to announce co controlling interest tomorrow before market open.

So here is your chance to buy in bulk!

government will be taking over power companies and other industries in time to come.........this is political change about to happen un-seen for decades.
private companies in years to come will be state owned.

they should nationalise oil and gas companies too

LOL

Let nationalise brussels sprouts.

I have always suspected them of try to undermine my neutrality.

they should nationalise bp, shell etc

whats the implication of the new govt deal to buy part of RBS as far as share price goes ? monday open, and trading would we see RBS head higher from 79 or they doomed cos they getting nationalisd ?

CNBC reporting govt stake will be 50 % of RBS and 70% of HBOS

goodwin gone.

Yes!!

First of many fatcats I hope

50p what a crap share no wonder Fred was told to clear his desk what a looser he was.

don't understand why HBOS and RBS have collapsed the last 20 mins. I would have thought they have been guaranteed their future. Is this market manipulation trying to smash the deal or forced selling?

because of huge share dilution

Not sure about that although I've noticed that in just about every fund raising so far, the sp initially drops well below the set price. HHR went down to low 80's before recovering to 140p (fundraising was at 110p)

Surely if the Gov is buying in at 65p then the mkt price initially should be a % between Friday's close and the fundraising depending on how much is being raised at the lower price.

FTSE down from earlier high dont read too much into it.FTSE was up at 276 now 185 I see big jump when Septics open at 14.30
