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

thats nothing as its fallen 660p from last year

failed to hold on to its days gains its a traders share not for investors will be 42p this week .

Problem is the Dow could go to 6500 or less and the Ftse to 2700 in the next 12 /18 months.

Mitzy : Bold predictions indeed ! Not quite sure how you arrive at theses figures, but have a good idea. Trust that you will return to this board on Friday to accept the accolades....or otherwise admit that you are a total prat.

I am a prat yes indeed annie.lol.

Big falls today but RBS is holding steady.

the fall is not that much less than with the other clearers ..... it's just because the base price is already so low

With price at 57.5p who is going to take up the offer at 65.5p.

I brought in at 197p, not one of my brightest ideas, but will try and find a trading range to trade my way out of position. 45p to 65p may be possible?

55p now this will fall further to 30p ish in the coming months.

A new low today.

So if I take up the offer at 65.5p I can make an instant loss of 21%, sounds like a no brainer to me.

another new intra-day low today.

I fully expected this to drop before the fund raising. Happens with stocks all the time.

The point being is the Gov is committed (or perhaps they should be) to 65p. I wouldn't think they could adjust it and as such as long as it goes ahead at the end of the mnth, then the sp will bounce back to 65p. There is probably a good trading opportunity in the next couple of weeks if you're brave enough!

Struggling to stay above 50p.

In the 40's next week if this weeks anything to go by.

Anybody know the final date for uptake of offer? Literature from my booky doesn't state it, only the date that they want more money by.

Tempting to buy in the market

Cant help you there Fred..

Cant help you either Fred,but it may be worth you and any others tempted by the low price to know that Bruce Packard, whose forcaste of 0p price for Bradford & B caused indignation at the time i think, is now forcasting RBS to go to 18p!!! this from todays Times (markets Business)

Its getting predictable now with the sp falling every day I cant see them lasting much longer...and even 18p is too high.

mitzy I hold 5000 of these that I paid .80p for a few weeks ago. I have also read somewhere over the weekend that they could fall to the .18 pence figure that you have mentioned. If I can remember right the person who has predicted this figure was the same person who predicted the same sorted of prediction with northern rock and it came true, but this is just heresay. All the shares I hold just seem to fall weekly. The market is awful at the moment. When I think back about 10 months ago I was trading these at the 5 mark. This country is well and truly going down hill very fast. Try and hang on to some cash. I will hang on to these shares now. I am getting immune to losing money on shares as I am sure a lot of the others must be by now. Good luckI think we are going to need it.
