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..?

Chart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=HBOS&S

The chart looks like one long suicide note.

This is great entertainment....one bunch of hedge funds wiping out another bunch of hedge funds... Crazy markets..... :-)

In my opinion.

have been out all morning, but what an unbelievable big-dipper both with HBOS and the markets in general ...... i foolishly, with hindsight, bought too early, but should end up with a good profit at the end of the day

Strawbs - 17 Sep 2008 13:43 - 62 of 569

Be interesting to see the terms of the deal. I hope they haven't just created a bigger target for the hedgies.....

In my opinion.

Totally gutted today - only just got in to play!! 88p at the low, you must have been mental not to snap them up below a pound.

nordcaperen - 17 Sep 2008 13:58 - 64 of 569

Just read the news that Lloyds are in negotiation to buy out HBOS, like to know what the offer is !!

cynic - 17 Sep 2008 14:01 - 65 of 569

rumour is 300

nordcaperen - 17 Sep 2008 14:02 - 66 of 569

2.75p all share offer - I can live with that

spitfire43 - 17 Sep 2008 14:06 - 67 of 569

I believe the 300p was a unsubstantiated price by a BBC reporter this morning, 200p or less might be nearer.

cynic - 17 Sep 2008 14:10 - 68 of 569

all will be revealed in due course ..... only stumbling block may be the over-sized mortgage book the combined will create, so may be required to spin that part off.

anyway, with sp in backwardation yet again at 152/125, but perhaps quite well below 200 again, could be worth a dabble

Hi Cynic ..............

Good to hear from you and see you back in action.

Your thoughts always appreciated.

Be lucky
Amar

Time to buy HBOS now.

HARRYCAT - 17 Sep 2008 15:13 - 71 of 569

I wish I could! Selftrade pants today!

Jub - 17 Sep 2008 15:24 - 72 of 569

not sure they are floating around the 170 mark... i think it's a risky business

cynic - 17 Sep 2008 15:30 - 73 of 569

am waiting for +/-155

nordcaperen - 17 Sep 2008 15:47 - 74 of 569

Cynic - if Lloyds are in advanced talks (first we've heard from yesterday) when do you think they'll make announcement of offer - do you think it would be sometime after close or a few days ?? I'm back in in at 1.63p cant see it falling lower than 1.60ish , but can see it flying on a an offer.

dealerdear - 17 Sep 2008 15:49 - 75 of 569

Bloomberg reckoned it may be tomorrow but judging by the sp, people obviously don't believe that.

nordcaperen - 17 Sep 2008 16:00 - 76 of 569

Stop loss triggered - trying to get back in but wont let me on Barclays

cynic - 17 Sep 2008 16:02 - 77 of 569

147.8 seemed a good price just now, so i topped up
