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?????????????

oi......i know idiots that would be offended by that comparison, lol.

he's actually sinister......scottish stalin but without creating anything apart from a financial disaster

Mandy Mandleson for Prime Minister

oh f??k.........i aint bending over for anyone

let stalin brown kill me instead

50p today I am guessing.

i am not looking at this one again till news out ref divis, int rate etc - i should have sold at 84p recently after buying in the 60p range - got too greedy & want the RI!! if price stays here 65.5p RI not worth it esp if now divis!

Some say 28p will be the low but I'm not sure.

28p bargain - look fwd to it!!

28p I would jump in at that price.

Scottish bank ripe for nationalisation beware the iceberg has not been revealed yet. LLOY would be well advised to call off the HBOS takeover otherwise they will end up in the same boat.

I hear what you are saying, but at 28p could be a short term position, well definately maybe.

As for lloy I agree with the price difference between the two ever growing, the market is shouting it loud and clear. The deal needs to be called off now.

Further 7 bill write down to be announced next week on top of the recent placing it doesnt look good to me ...I think it could fall to 10p.

when a strongly cap'd bank like HSBC can crash 15% while we were all asleep (thursday/friday), anything can happen

GB will fully nationalise them.

I agree cynic HSBC is the best around and even they are suffering big time so what chance has RBS.. none.

well i've gambled - who knows what way it will go - tend to agree signs dont look good - how much more write down pre ri?? - i have heard 2B to 6B quoted by various - think i may need a holiday after these past few weeks!!

Well its down again what a surprise.

and HSBC down a further 10% ..... same comment as i made earlier about same

Capitulation

What does it Mean? A military term. Capitulation refers to surrendering or giving up.

In the stock market, capitulation is associated with "giving up" any previous gains in stock price as investors sell equities in an effort to get out of the market and into less risky investments. True capitulation involves extremely high volume and sharp declines. It usually is indicated by panic selling.
Investopedia Says... After capitulation selling, it is thought that there are great bargains to be had. The belief is that everyone who wants to get out of a stock, for any reason (including forced selling due to margin calls), has sold. The price should then, theoretically, reverse or bounce off the lows. In other words, some investors believe that true capitulation is the sign of a bottom.

Could be near the floor, get ready to dive in.

Ftse down 200 points is that correct the way its going 3000 by Friday.. a complete disaster.

You are suggesting people dive into three inches of water from the high boardI am afraid I am blind .but I can see!

My cash is ready to buy, could be this week if the FTSE crashes below 3000 if it crashes to 1,000 you wont need any cash as it will be the end as we know it. Could be like Mad Max movie God hope the hoodies will not rule the UK.
