now holding very steady as it has done for the last hour or so

It's great being a banker, you get to squander all the money and cause lots of misery eg. family losing their roofs, workers losing their jobs, people committing suicide,children become orphans and get away with it.

They certainly have no CONSCIENCE.

Just maybe Eric Daniels is writing down everything/clearing the decks after all it was his decision to buy HBOS perhaps with a little persuasion from Gordon.

That may well be the case - but what timing - Friday afternoon - the weekend press etc should be interesting!

Surely there must be a way to stop the boy Hornby collecting 60K per month from LLOY. I hold.

Partridge, hanging,drawing and quartering for treason would do the job with his head left on a spike on Tower bridge!

Death by sex is best solution at least he will die with a smile on his face.

cynic - 13 Feb 2009 19:48 - 344 of 483

sounds like you have work to do then!

hlyeo98 - 13 Feb 2009 20:13 - 345 of 483

Cynic, do you think it's time to buy at 60p???

mitzy - 13 Feb 2009 20:56 - 346 of 483

lol..

cynic - 13 Feb 2009 21:04 - 347 of 483

no opinion for a change guys ..... not been following banks for a couple of weeks.

as for you Ms Mitzy, i think you should (not!) behave yourself!!

spitfire43 - 13 Feb 2009 21:41 - 348 of 483

Would think we could see lower next week, if panic continues, if sp hits mid 30s I will buy for short term trade. I hope Eric Daniels has cleared the deck with HBOS losses, but the update was brief, we will have to wait for the finals for more detail.

cynic - 14 Feb 2009 07:11 - 349 of 483

as a rule, falls and rises are overdone ...... whether or not one wants to try to prove the point is another matter .... anyway, a couple of days ahead to think about it

spitfire43 - 14 Feb 2009 09:48 - 350 of 483

Will have to work out my plan for next week, should be a good short term trading possibility at some point. The way the press are reporting this, I'm sure we will see lower next week. They are concentrating on Alistar Darling not ruling out nationislation for Lloyds, but he has no option but to leave all options open.

mitzy - 14 Feb 2009 10:06 - 351 of 483

I think nationalisation is the best policy here HBOS are a complete mess dragging Lloyds down with them you may not like a neo marxist State allocation of bank assets but you will have to live with it.

halifax - 14 Feb 2009 12:39 - 352 of 483

Why should Lloyds shareholders lose everything to nationalisation? Is it too late to call off the merger with HBOS, should Eric Daniels go for making the wrong decision which at this time has damaged the wealth of Lloyd's shareholders? Was he conned by Brown and Darling?

spitfire43 - 14 Feb 2009 13:28 - 353 of 483

Nationlisation would be the last thing the government would want to do, they might have to pay in more money and become the majority shareholder like RBS. But we are seeing histeria and panic starting again, Monday and Tuesday are bound to see some extreme sp movements.

halifax - 14 Feb 2009 13:57 - 354 of 483

nationalisation means political control, Brown would not be afraid to use more taxpayers money to achieve that end.
