HBOS shares

[Deleted User]

"Clean of writedowns,
pretax profit came in at 2.546 billion pounds, down 14 percent for the parent
company of Bank of Scotland and Halifax."

Profits down 14% shares down over 65% and write downs dont happen for ever.

Napoleon and ad have now been demonstrated to be the fools they are, by telling people to sell the shares near the very bottom of its shareprice and to not take up the rights issues they have cost people a lot of money.

HBOS shares up 7% on results day.

Now that I have 100% PROVEN you to be bad stockmarket advisors and frauds I shall let you carry on your campaign of trying to influence the stock price by continuing to create negative spin and post rubbish. Rather then continue to SPAM like you are doing.

Long term investors in HBOS or folks that were waiting for an entry point and dont believe all the short covering hype now understand the full picture. This is a period where bank profits will appear to be worse then they are due to NEW accounting practices imported from america, that will increase volatility until investors get more sophisticated in understanding the balance sheets. For me its easy peasy, but then again I am a pro.

Good luck with your longs, shorts, options and investments. I am now signing off this thread as arguing with morons itself becomes moronic because they dont understand there is no point in trying.

Shall we all asume that as you are so vehemently commited to doom-mongering on this share, you're shorting?

Why do you not seem so obsessed with other banking stocks?

Why doesn't someone do something useful on this thread instead of bickering and answer Sabretoothtiggers question and explain the dividend info in plain English

HBOS + 11.75 p + 4% on the day. Now at 302p

HBOS is like loads of other shares - down & up. Some years profits fall others years are part of an increasing run. Today's share price or this 1/2 year's profit are no good reason to buy or sell. People who were offered shares in the rights issue will have personally known HBOS has had a reasonable track record as a share to hold - smart alecs might even deal in them, but most will simply hold for the long term and keep collecting what's on offer.

Alot more down than up though. HBOS shares used to be £11 or £12. Now they're only £3 :eek:

Banderman, you seem so convinced that hbos are a basket case. Put your money where your mouth is and short this share down. I suspect, shorting this share from
300p would be a very risky move. No investment advice intended
