.. good. job..!
Probably 140m of the 145m shares sold today were over .225 yet we finish, always the close, at .222! Down .5%, this and worse happens every day! That's down 10% in as many days, for a well performing national pillar bank it's a disgrace, this has been going on and on, for 2 years, do something about it!
It was probably your mention of TD's attention that stirred things up - there may still be one or two of them who subscribe to the time honoured Irish response - "if something is iniquitous IT MUST BE STOPPED" I am thinking of Anglo Irish Bank when the Australians owned it and Mary Harneys reaction to their activities. Modern day bankers usually work outside the Irish jurisdiction particularly in London, they are not accustomed to being supervised by politicians, because most of the time they haven't got a clue what they are up to. Insider Trading is not a new crime but how many prosecutions have there been ? Good luck all.

Something I could never understand the can borrow your Shares for small fee and in some Countries pay no Stamp duty and most small Share holders seem happy with this but its my believe the are taking you to Casino Think about it the have power to destroy your Shareholding and there experts will tell you the are strenthing Share Price,accept my limited intelligence after 25yrs at this game but I never fell for this one Think about it past generation put there Shares in drawer when the had look we did have could celebration if it worked out Not to check your Shares daily means your crazy on most Companies,hedgies now decide,even small daily traders struggle this might sound simple it is believe me Know most long term investors have this worked out .Big boys now decide what Share Price will be Example B O I G L A
Is this a new penny stock looking for a new stock to trade from the bottom. or is this bank ready to close its doors? Where's it based?

I think you can expect a reply from Donald Duck !
To the Central Bank.. To whom it may concern, I would like to put it on the record that I am a shareholder in Bank of Ireland. I have contacted a lawyer and certain TD' s in the Dail. I have recently heard that the CEO of Bank of Ireland will be working for Prem Watsa when he steps down as CEO. In my opinion this relationships is a very cosy as Mr.Watsa has a strategic interest in Bank of Ireland. Im also perplexed that our Department of Finance is selling shares of Allied Irish Banks to shareholder at a minimum market cap valuation of €12.4 euros. This is a company that will still be 75% owned by the Irish Government for the foreseeable future.In contrast Bank of Ireland has a market cap of €7.2 billion euros that is only 14% owned by the state.Who is buying into Allied Irish Banks relisting? Irish pension funds? There is something drastically out of whack in the valuations and I fear that that if the Bank of Ireland valuation is right the Irish public will lose again just like Eircom. I have also tried to follow the trading patterns of Bank of Ireland on the Irish Stock Exchange and the English Stock Exchange and I think there is collusion to drive the price down. I have contacted John Batt and Aidan Cronin in Regulatory at the Irish Stock Exchange about this. Im not exactly sure who is going to read this or where it will be directed but I very much would like a reply. Thanking you, Sincerely,
To Bank of Ireland Investor Relations To who it may concern, It has come to my attention recently that Mr.Boucher is on his way to work for Prem Watsa after he steps down from his position at Bank of Ireland.I have contacted the Department of Finance and the Central Bank about this cosy relationship. I am also perplexed with the recent drop in the share price of Bank of Ireland and the valuation compared to its contemporary Allied Irish Bank. I'm looking at market cap valuations and I'm flabbergasted that Allied Irish Bank is valued at €5 billion more than Bank or Ireland.Why would this be?It is interesting Davy stockbrokers represents both companies. I still have not fully figured out what's going on but I smell a rat. Thanking you, Sincerely

Interesting to see AIB calling out the risk posed by Fintech in their prospectus: The competitive threats facing AIB in Ireland stem from both traditional banks seeking to increase their market share and/or market reach, as well as from financial technology (‘‘Fintech’’) companies, which provide services such as online transaction and payments, currency trading, mobile banking, crowdfunding and peer-to-peer lending. Examples of Fintech companies operating in the Irish market include CurrencyFair, LinkedFinance, Fundit, Realex, Kickstarter, PayPal and Apple Pay. Fintech companies often have cost bases and regulatory burdens that are lower than those of financial institutions operating under the traditional banking model, and may not have the same legacy issues such as IT systems issues and non-performing loans as such institutions.
I'll have whatever Torquay is drinking :)
My point here is, anyone invested at 30+ will lose a packet
Don't know who scooped up AIB but I'm willing to bet it's domestic.
on the other hand If anyone looked at whats happen to this stock the banking system system is far from fixed who in the right mind would invest in aib ok my rant over...
Now Prem Watsa likes owning banks and he keeps selling bits of BoI that depress the SP, then I read that Boucher is going to work for him! Well, I say, no wonder BoI do nothing about the depressed SP! Is it all fitting together?
Man I'd love if an American bank bought us. Bring it on
