US Markets closed Thursday for Thanksgiving which means Wednesday is a busy busy day for Economic news! Friday is a shortened trading day with low volumes as everyone has gone away!

If it bombs, that could be seen as bad news for the banking sector as a whole, but good news for RBS who have steered clear of a Rights Issue.

If it's successful, vice versa.

We live in interesting times, and I predict ripples from the LBG RI will cause a bit of volatility in the RBS share price in the coming weeks.

I'm sure anyone worth their salt at the WTO will be understanding given world trade would have come to a stand still if they hadn't been bailed out.

Are there any available positions I could apply for?

Excellent summary of the problematical issues BTW. By Sir Buns-Up Knealing ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:RBS.L&display=discussion&id=5613695&action=detail Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:51:00 GMT Sir Buns-Up Knealing tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.5613566
Has no-one else cottoned on to the fact that they have been given up to 5 years to sell the insurance business? They have clearly said that their aim is to sell in 4 years. Do not think for one minute that in 3 years they will not start trying to wriggle out of the sale and the Government will most likely help them if they still own some shares. Then watch the share price rise and the Government sell some of their holding.

I don't think RBS would have taken it so easily if they were told they had to sell in the next 12 months.

Firstly, that has been the exact opposite approach of Hester. He's been up front from the start in stating that recovery will take some time.

Secondly, do you think that there's anyone else in the world who knows the RBS situation better than Hester? The answer is no. By Ironuts ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:RBS.L&display=discussion&id=5613334&action=detail Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:45:00 GMT Ironuts
