    yes, anyone that doesn't agree with you is clearly a hedge fund stooge. Hedge fund people are never away from this site obviously :rolleyes:. What planet do you currently inhabit? :rotfl:
  • Correcting for the rights issue the share price peak on HBOS has been approx £8 per share. The share price has fell back over 65%. Now if tomorrow proves the profits have not fell back 65% napolean then you and your friends on here will LOOK EXTREEMLY STUPID with your constant fearmongering, requesting that people "SELL SELL SELL" and "you definatly dont want to take up the rights".

    The prosecution rests your honour, judgement will be served tomorrow.

    Anyway ive now got to get on with my work. I will be posting at around 7pm tomorrow.

    Have a nice day.

    Yes truly amazing analysis. The share price goes down yet the self-proclaimed 'analyst' says it went up!!!! With analytical skill like that you could get a place on the board of HBOS!!!

    Share price has a sharp rise this morning 290.00

    Chief Executive Officer Andy Hornby said the global credit crunch will last through the first half of next year, restricting HBOS's access to funds. The bank expects loan growth to slow as house prices in the U.K. fall by as much as 20 percent by the end of 2009. Hornby said the company may sell assets as the market deteriorates.
    ``They are under massive funding pressure, that is the crucial factor,'' said Simon Maughan, an analyst at MF Global Securities Ltd. in London who has a ``neutral'' rating on the stock.

    A disastrous day for the king of the turkeys, HBOS

    Profits plunge

    Bad debts up

    Rights issue flops

    Ho, ho, ho, somehow I can't see anyone paying £7 per share for HBOS except maybe Yant1 but that's only because he can't count too well. :T

    Its weird how bad news can cause the price to rise but I guess it could be alot worse. Are you shorting the shares

    Did they announce the dividend, etc

    The shares should just follow the ftse, the general banking sector and because they have american debt, the C&P500.
    If you know of a reason why it will underperform give us the reasoning

    The fact that the HBOS board is a bunch of clowns and couldn't run a bath might be a good reason for it to underperform :rotfl:
