I guess people might have to tail swallow.

But after people will pile in with the money for the cheap shares, so there could be an opportunity there.

Although this is the RBS BB so whats your post doing here? By Painkiller ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:RBS.L&display=discussion&id=5554264&action=detail Sat, 07 Nov 2009 16:32:00 GMT Painkiller tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.5554247
Oh thanks for that, you just reminded me of another penny stock lender that everyone was told they should buy before it rockets to the moon!

LOL, I told people not to buy it, they never listen! By GatorHex ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:RBS.L&display=discussion&id=5554247&action=detail Sat, 07 Nov 2009 16:21:00 GMT GatorHex tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.5554197
You wouldn't get out fast enough anyway because the shares would drop too quickly because the big money can get out faster.

a) Without government intervention then RBS would have been long gone by now

b) If RBS don't perform in the future then it is practically a certainty that nationalisation is their destiny

Therefore I am wondering what your point is GatorHex when you mention the bailout. The key point now is to discern whether RBS can perform in the future. Now as far as I'm concerned I see positivity in the new approach to RBS' strategy in moving forward. Hester has laid out his cards on the table and allowed the shareholers to make their minds up, and it seems that the shareholders want to back this bank because they know that the future rewards in the timescale of two-three years outweighs the risks. The books are beginning to balance and that is what counts at this stage. I personally believe that as long as RBS can drum up enough business and investment when moving forward then they will be successful in living on.

Shareholders in Lloyds Banking Group should either buy new shares in the bank’s £13.5bn rights issue or sell out altogether, according to private-client stock brokers.

Investors who do not top up their holdings in the record capital-raising that was announced this week could see the value of their existing shares shrink to an “uneconomic” few hundred pounds, they warn.
