"Typically, the average P/E ratio is around 20 to 25. Anything below that would be considered a good price-to-earnings ratio, whereas anything above that would be a worse P/E ratio. "
Lol
NWG currently running around 4
What time is the sell off going to start
Yer, surprised by the initial dip, so bought a few, but not sure how long I want to keep them as anything can happen and the future might not be so rosy, but for a few months, especially leading up to xd, we should be ok.
Afterall RBS/Halifax etc were making 'record' profits, just before total collapse in around 2007!
Stocks to watch
NatWest Bank reported a 20% rise in operating profit and confirmed Paul Thwaite as chief executive on a permanent basis. The bank on Friday said 2023 operating profit came in at £6.1bn. Total income rose to £14.7bn, up from £13.1bn a year earlier. Thwaites had been given a one-year contract last July after the departure of his predecessor Alison Rose, who resigned after she broke client confidentiality in relation to the closure of hard-right political activist Nigel Farage account with NatWest's Coutts banking unit.
TBC Bank Group reported significant increases in net interest income, of 26.8%, and net fee and commission income, of 27.8%, in its full-year results on Friday, leading to total operating income of GEL 2.37bn (£0.71bn), up 14.6%. Despite a 36% increase in its total credit loss allowance and a 24.2% rise in operating expenses, the bank still achieved a profit before tax of GEL 1.33bn, up 7%. After a 20.3% fall in income tax expenses, the bank reported a profit for the period of GEL 1.14bn, up 13.6% year-on-year.

This is what the Taxpayers Alliance have to say. I wonder who is going to get us out of all of this?

British taxpayers injected £45.5bn into RBS in 2008. Current mkt Cap is only £18bn.
British tax payer national debt hits £2.6 trillion. How on earth will that ever be resolved without some market catastrophe somewhere, like a gilts meltdown and emergency QE again?
'Any opinions?'
Another year of mediocrity.
Any opinions?
So basically, they can't headhunt or find a suitable CEO externally....
Unlike most American banks, the UK banks have never recovered from their post financial crisis levels. The economy has not continued on its pre-crisis growth path either. No quick fix here.

Calokey I used to invest into UK banks, I still have a small position in VMUK so I occasionally I read some of these boards but less and less nowadays, and that’s the truth, no agenda here.
Good luck to everyone but I don’t think the UK market is investable until they do something (the government), like identify the public, pension funds and asset managers to invest here.
So why are you here Minnie
Realist1 and Gray59
I don't know why would anyone invest into the UK market.
They say UK companies are good dividend payers but it's no good if the share price falls by 50%.
Here is an illustation from today's news:
TUI board has recommended ditching the London Stock Exchange, where only 10% of its shares are held, citing a “significant” decline in liquidity on U.K. equity markets in recent years.
