Glad I jumped back in here a couple of days, that's a nice RNS and a nice long term hold for me.

Positive day seeing as most shares are down, plus s****y new marketing campaign.

Things looking up and starting to distance from past mistakes.

Welcome onboard Popeye, let's hope this outs spinach in Metros sales.

Feeling positive again on here, positive moves from Metro and hopefully we are on our way back up

Not sure marketing strategy is an RNS, it's day to day business operations , hopefully thought it will start to grow confidence in the brand which drives up the SP.

I'm guessing this is a start of the new strategy they have been mentioning , I like it!

As per Matlot, I think this will be an interesting week

I like the new campaign, taking the battle to the marketing led fintechs https://www.campaignlive.co.uk/article/metro-bank-launches-first-brand-campaign-eyes-expansion/1671891

Using real employees for the campaign's is also nice ala Halifax from all those

I've been in since the dark days if 155p, having first purchased at 400p, I've averaged down but still have an I overall loss in my ISA.

I need around 270 to wipe my loses out. 3.30 wipes out all my ISA losses and not just Metro, after that it's all profit. My SIPP averages around 202p for Metro so I'm slightly better placed there.

I believe this will come good, just takes time. I've learnt that flipping and trying 5o catch the falling sword for quick wins doesn't work for me having learnt the hard way.

There has been some great advice from people on this forum.

I've set high to make sure shorters cannot leverage my shares, I use HL who I understand don't loan out. Stop loss is around 1750, I do watch like a hawk though to make sure no sudden surprise catches me out on this one.

This was commented on a couple of weeks back, fully agree long term there is great potential.

The question is what is long term, I personally can leave it untouched for another 9 months to a year in my ISA, my SIPP holdings can stay there for another two decades of there is growth and potential

Reminded me of the EUA forum , I've stopped looking there now as everyone wants quick buys outs , 60p a share etc.

Now that is good, providing it's not about fraud or anything like that

Would be nice but I've already concluded in my head this is a standard marketing campaign or launch of a new product.

Very much hoping I'm proved wrong

Personally doubt FCA related, that's a mistake they don't want to draw more attention to.

This to me looks fairly standard from a marketing perspective,remember new marketing people onboard so this may be the launch aligned with a new strategy. Re-energise the brand for the new decade etc.

There were some nice buys that allude to maybe someone in the know, at the same time shorts have been on the up. I hope this catches them off guard.

Of course , we would love this to be take over or something else given a lot of us have been through stressful times with this share.

Let's see what Monday brings.

Fully agree, fingers crossed for good news

The people that have been around the share for a few months have seen similar scenarios several times, I'm being patient until Monday.

Still, looks like the negativity for this one is all out and going forward looking a lot more positive

Saga has been kind to me since I first purchased a year back for 37p, sold all my shares recently.

Jumped back in at 45p this morning with 20k, fingers crossed long term this recovers

This thing dives faster the the Red October, is it potentially an attack to drive down to get out or just the normal behaviour we see with this share.

Think I need to step away from looking at this frequently until results or news, not good for the mental health

Great article and good comments in there, this was was particularly interesting.

I do find it interesting that there has been a few negative articles within a couple of days, looks like they are trying to keep people away from investing

Bank of England deputy governor Sam Woods told The Telegraph earlier this month that his priority is to get the bank "back on even footing", adding that he thinks this has been achieved "to some extent, but obviously it is currently without a permanent chairman or chief executive

Another positive articke by fool again https://www.fool.co.uk/investing/2020/01/22/why-i-think-metro-banks-share-price-will-continue-to-struggle/

As some of the long term holders will know, we've been here several times in the past few months whether it be merlot man or other things having more subtle spikes.

I see of AVDFN some like SR are getting positive from analysis , given his usual view on this share it's interesting.

Any views on why we think this time it may be different or is it just the shorter letting it go up before hammering it back to 198 - 200. Or are they trying to control and starting to lose their grip?

Is it down to the fact we are a year on from the blunder, new people on board to get risk in order, potential that we may see some decent results plus FCA being more lenient?

For me, new branches opening in locations like Cardiff can only be a positive.

Now we just need to get rid of the phantom raspberry blower of old London town and his shorting friends...
