    HBOS, which was valued at more than £43bn in February last year, was this afternoon worth a fraction above £8.5bn.

    Total carnage today. HBOS shares down about 10%. I hope everyone managed to bale out of these turkeys long ago. These shares have alot further to fall as the housing market has only just started to tank.

    Called it a little early today. Life in the old dog

  • I've a few bob on a good day for barc tomorrow. Buy on the dips, sell on the rise.
    Big share price fluctuation is what the trader is looking for. You can make money on the way down as well.

    Are Setmefree and Banderman the same person? Both seem to have way to much time on their hands.

    Just been on the news that HBoS have announced 100's of job losses this evening.

    Are we going to gloat about that as well, and accompany such gloating with lots of laughing emoticons?
