AIB on Reuters, 'The sale could raise about 3 billion euros, taking into account the bank's book value of 11.3 billion euros at the end of last year. That value has probably risen since then, after another quarter of margin growth, its payment of a 250 million-euro dividend this month and a further 11 percent gain in the value of euro zone banks so far this year.' This valuation is completely at loggerheads with our rigged baby here, so either we are going to go up to that valuation, i.e. +30% or it's going to come down to ours. We are down 15% yoy, and the sector is up at least that. What will the prospectus and the take-up reveal, smiles all around or some very red faces ?

Meanwhile back in the real world, at close today, bid .246, ask .248, and amazingly the SP was.245, think I'm going to give the ISE a call next week, time this was explained!

Yes they are trowing everything at it now, 10m just dumped for 25c in Dublin, panicking but determined I think. Someone should get in touch with the Exchange!

Our dumper/manipulater friends working hard today to bring the price below 25, worst performing bank share in Europe so far, but I don't think they will succeed.

John you might just have broken the hex! Anyway yes it truly is an irritating share but I'm not sure it irrational, only to us ordinary holders, whoever is pulling the strings here will either have them cut or they will get their way, either way the sp will I believe be free to rise to its normal peer level, i.e. +25%, things have changed in the last two weeks. Hang in, the worst is behind I believe.

Sense! At close today BoI was bid .237, ask was .238 and the SP was .236! Explain that!

If the markets would settle down, dearly departing Noonan might announce the sale tomorrow!

The consensus here I think is that the downward pressure is to do with the govs sale of stakes in aib and boi, keep them undervalued and get them on the cheap, we are talking of billions to be made. New CEO is good news, did I recently refer to 'new balls'? Oops wrong again!

One thing is certain if it's 1.30 it must be dump time, same day in day out, very regular! Big dump today brings sp down 2%, expect more from 3.30 on. Same old sht! This share is pretty much on the bottom and is probably not a bad time to buy. IMO.

I have been saying about this manipulation for years now, no hair left on my head to pull out! It's very frustrating and presumably criminal, the pattern is there so the parties should be identifiable and I suspect there is more than one guilty party. Is there any regulator at all?

I think we can expect to see 23 today, judging by the start, down 15% in one week! The endgame must be near!

Hopefully new jockstraps on the way, or at least a change of balls!

Naked manipulation back on the agenda, down 4% in 24 hrs! Could be dragged to 23 again today. And unfortunately Blackrock have actually increased their stake....... will it ever end?

In my opinion, I would think about €10Bn. or 30c per share and it would be that if it was allowed rise! Happy to see Blackrock reducing.

The CET has little or nothing to do with the 10% SP drop last week, 12% CET is quite healthy and a good deal better than when it was 11.3% and the SP was in the mid thirties two years ago. This is a concerted attack, presumably because the BoI SP is the only metric for valuing the upcoming disposal of the governments bank shares, it is an orchestrated fraud on the Irish Exchequer and the Irish people as a consequence to the tune of approximately €6Bn, a new banking scandal!

Thanks to a more than lacklustre presentation of the results our manipulators are having a field day and making a monkey of the SP, close today 23, if we are lucky? Bring on the changes here!

I think out 'controllers' are worried that the share price is getting away from them and too high of late hence the outrageous 3% drop, of course the worst bank performance in Europe today. Expect more ongoing manipulation.....

Well if it's the end of the week it must be hammer the SP time, to kill any recent gains going forward. They have been working hard on it all day, and yes we are by a long shot the worst performing Bank share today! Everybody else green and we are down nearly 2%.

Personally I think she has made as big a mistake a Cameron, and there will not be a majority gov for a long time to come in uk, tearing the place apart, the 64% of the electorate who did not vote for Brexit get a voice. 7 weeks is a long time in politics, particularly in the present climate.

SP under attack again on low volumes, the worst bank share in Europe by far today and already from a pathetic low, have to agree with John Mc' s theory about this all being connected to AIB coming back to the market. Some big boys effing us about in a big way.
