Does this news mean the shares will bounce up tomorrow? I'd have thought so, should be a good time to buy if you can get in there fast enough.0

you would need to buy at least £1,000 worth of shares to minimise the cost of dealing and stamp duty.
the price is 35% more attractive today than Friday but who knows which way it is going to go. the share price is made up of the companies assets and future profits. the market has marked down future profits as nrk's reputation has been badly damaged.
its one of those shares you wouldn't put your shirt on.
the banks are going to be busy over the next couple of months as people start spreading their cash around."The Holy Writ of Gloucester Rugby Club demands: first, that the forwards shall win the ball; second, that the forwards shall keep the ball; and third, the backs shall buy the beer." - Doug Ibbotson0 -

Thats what I thought, but after being on housepricecrash.co.uk. He is playing with words
Quote from a thread
Mr Darling said in a statement that “should it be necessary, we and the Bank of England will put in place arrangements that guarantee all the existing deposit arrangements”.
"The existing deposit guarantee scheme protects part or all of the first £35,000 of an individual’s savings only"
So no change there then? And the millionare was right to take out his million quid?
