3card it's a free hit, nothing to lose

a basket case so if it folds he tried his best - if it doesn't he's a hero..

a good time to update on the numbers - but they chose not too

one last roll of the dice, most of the dead wood now gone so there will be no-one left to blame when the inevitable happens.

was only a matter of time

Not 30 days, I think something may happen this year.

I think it will need to happen within 2 years though - I'm definitely not convinced that they can pay their bills and meet the expansion plans in the current climate and with the current business model.

No harm in coming clean, I’m not liked on here but I’ve always made my position clear. So from what you say I assume that you’re short.
It doesn’t bother me either way I just like to know what the agendas are on here so I can asses things properly.

For the avoidance of doubt Theo, what’s with the 900+ posts on here in a month ? Are you short on Metro or just creating mischief to get in/top up at a better entry level ?
Monopolising this BB as you have been must be for a reason other than to gloat that you sort of got it right recently ?

Article absolutely spot on !

A huge asset bubble with risk chasing risk for the fear of missing out. A BS rally kept going by Trump to further his own interests.

It’s not the end of the sell off but opportunities to fill the warehouse with money over the next few years are now definitely becoming available.

Lti, as I said on the Lloyds BB last week - lets not squabble on here. I'm no where near fully invested.

Stop trolling me and get on with your own trading/life. You run a significant risk of making it personal now..! Move on !

You've got my email address if you want to stop hiding behind your keyboard..

so you stayed invested and you're having a pop at me for being short to 6600/being in cash - and then closing and building a portfolio of various things - am I right ?

clients were 10-15% equities , was that wrong too ?

why, I was building a new portfolio.

I was short on the markets too, but you'll probably say that I made that up because they've dropped nearly 20%.

I like investing, I'm much better at investing than day trading - happy where I am but thanks for the concern.

do you want to guess how much equity exposure was in the £45mill I manage for clients - or will I make that up too ?

same - albeit not your boots..

is that almost of the stocks that would come under real financial pressure in a full blown recession were marked heavily down on open. It's quite bullish that metro were only marked down broadly in line with the other banks so it's definitely a time to put them back on my buy list.

Still more risky than some of the others but the risk and reward looks good again now..!

Oil down over 20%

6000 will be here sooner than I thought.

Carnage tomorrow..!

Bull and bear views below both have merit. I think the bearish view will play out more in the short term and the price will drift down, as with the majority of the financial sector the sell off will be overdone and it will be a license to print money - again. Pion3r, I'm not worried about getting the bottom. Not a plug for RBS but here is some perspective to back up my thinking. RBS were 20p in old money when they were effectively bankrupt in 08/09, the UK govt bailed them out at 50p a share (old money), since then they've had massive problems with PPI, GRG, other fines and the threat of being privatised under a Corbyn govt. The world is a different place for banking I accept that but the current share price is 15p in old money. Lower than the probably going bankrupt price, lower than post brexit referendum, lower than no deal probability, lower than nationalisation possibility. Barclays and Lloyds are broadly the same so I'm happy to build a position in all of them, I'm also happy if they continue to sell off because I can buy more.
We've been here several times since the credit crunch and there's always been a spike once they're deemed oversold - this time won't be any different.

pion3r, good luck it's probably got further to fall. I'm buying now and will continue to add in 5% increments. Also LLoyds and Barclays. And maybe Metro if I can see a good reason too.

HSBC shareholder owned so in theory could go bust, RBS 62% state owned so couldn't - you're wrong fella.

cheers Rambo - shall we exchange emails and we can meet for a coffee - you can tell me to my face rather than on an anonymous forum.

I can travel..

is RBS

maybe change your name to timidboy or sissyboy

get a grip - it will spread and it will infect a huge number of people - worse case from the UK virus experts is 80% of the UK over the next 12-18 months. 90% little or no symptoms, of the remainder 6% will be seriously ill and 80,000 will die.

If most of us get it 4 times as many people as normal will die from flue. Most will be old with respiratory conditions - flu kills around 20,000 here annually so it will finish 60,000 more people off a few years early - that's worse case - which won't likely happen.

An invisible man running around shooting people - as I say get a grip...

Your choice, it's my last attempt at trying to move on and not fill a coupe of bulletin boards with squabbling.

Longtime, that suits me - lets leave it there - post what you like where you like but leave me out of it.

OK ?!
