Exactly!!!

Worries as to why did it not shoot up on tr1 x 2.

I want it skyrocket as firmly believe in it, firstly, being massively undervalued and secondly, it will be bought out.

Forgive the typos / auto corrects

Rns x 2 and no movement. I haven't red them but no movement means they r insignificant or the fact that sp has been falling big time over the last few days and is firmly in ref today suggest they may even be someone reducing their holdings. Not sure if I should read them....

Can't argue with Barclays (or any other broker) estimates now can we....

MrBelfort and Mark@1973, when do you experts think metro will revisit your estimates of 1.70/1.50 ? Or are you already coked up ready for the weekend and talking utter $white? Cos I dont see it going anywhere near those prices, that ship has sailed :-)) glad I bought fuk tonnes when it was around 1.60 mark

Metro is one of very few stocks in green today., well the only bank in green. Looks promising!

Volume seems very low, hurd has moved on I think. This usually is a good sign. Expect recovery from here on in :-)

"Every purchase has a matching sell"

So why doesn't the share price have a horizontal straight line?

Better still, why does the price drop when a stock is shorted?

Were down few minutes ago and now boom up 2 plus percent

HSBC still sinking

Mtro still down but off early lows...watch this space

FTSE down over 1%. HSBC down over 2%. Bad day for banks!!

Pay attention to macro / micro economics issue affecting stock markets?

One of many headlines out their reads :

London close: Stocks sink deeper as trade optimism flounders...

As he is privy to sensitive information so not allowed to buy I imagine

All the stress here? What was your target sell price when u invested in mtro? If u missed it then sell now and move on. If it is yet to come then just chill. Yes it has fallen from 2.80 the other day but it has come a long way from 150 a few weeks ago. I am in since then with average sp of 1.7 and have no intention of selling till it reaches my sell target. I fully accept that Little ups and downs will occur along the way. :-))

As they say, profit is profit!! You sold and price crept up a touch.

That's one of the reason I dont set a stop loss. Luckily, I get to monitor stocks all day every day so probably dont need to set them up. Considered selling part of my holdings here at 2.55 but decided against it as this is just not ripe enough yet.

Lol....still looking for it!

Hahaha....Hahahaha

Bring on tomorrow, i expect mtro to resume its upward momentum. Today was just a blip, nothing more :-)

If you read carefully you will notice goodbody are saying they dont expect any takeover deal to COMPLETE before authorities conclude their investigation. In other words, mtro may well receive the bids from interested parties but wont finalise anything till after investigation has ended...

Couldn't agree more

Ofc the fkrs are playing games

"Also on the slide was troubled high street lender Metro Bank PLC (LON:MTRO), which tumbled 5.5% to 249.6p after stockbroker Goodbody seemed to pour cold water over any chances of the firm getting bought out by one of the big banks.

The broker said that they did not expect any takeover deal to complete before the outcome of an investigation by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) as a buyer “will not want to take the risk of exposing itself to material potential litigation claims”.

The analysts added that they doubted whether Metro was engaging with any of the large-cap banks and that the market had become “overexcited - particularly given we don’t know what the outcome of the regulatory investigation is yet”.
