03/8/2015 22:04 | RBS in overnight placing at 330p-a-share. Sources said that there was much higher demand for the shares than expected and the book was covered within two hours of pulling the trigger on the placing. I'll be adding on weakness in the morning if we hit below 330p. | smurfy2001 | |
03/8/2015 21:51 | CFC. Good thing this sell off will create some liquidity for trading RBS. great news. | lance corporal winstanley ash | |
03/8/2015 21:22 | sure the share price will go down but the market will turn as they did with Lloyds as RBS gradually returns to private....BEST think that can happen to the bank - to be a bank again not a gov't department! we need the litigation and none stop fines to stop- similar to BP! Get both of those out of the way and the share price flys..might take time but long term this is a screaming buy and tuck away | cfc1 | |

03/8/2015 19:01 | Oil is being crushed. No doubt big oil companies are being hammered too. ----- Hayes was either badly advised or ignored good advice, by changing his mind ... "After his arrest by the U.K. Serious Fraud Office in 2012, Hayes had a deal with the agency to plead guilty. During 82 hours of interviews, he told the SFO he’d “made concerted efforts to influence Libor” and was a “serial offender.” Within a year he’d backtracked, changed lawyers, and entered a plea of not guilty." | leedskier | |

03/8/2015 17:41 | At this price does this not mean RBS is going to be kept low by the market makers so that they can make sure the government keep selling at low prices. If so this share is surely going nowhere for years? | petesnow | |

03/8/2015 10:05 | Government may begin RBS sale from Monday 2 August 2015 The Treasury could begin the process of selling part of the government's stake in Royal Bank of Scotland from Monday, according to BBC sources. UK Financial Investments, through which the Treasury owns its four-fifths holding in RBS, may sell a stake worth billions of pounds, should there be enough appetite among City investors. The move is tentative, and could be set back a month or more. The Treasury and RBS declined to comment. The first task would be choosing investment banks to manage the sale. The coming week is seen as a good time to attempt a sale before holidays start in earnest among investors. Should there be too little interest, a sale could be attempted again from September, the BBC understands. Chancellor George Osborne announced in June his plan to sell the bank back to private investors. The government provided RBS with a £45.5bn bailout in 2008. The government paid about 500p a share for the bank, compared with the current price of about 342p. RBS reported a half-year loss of £153m last week after setting aside more money for repaying customers and potential legal settlements. But the bank's net profit rose to £293m for the three months to the end of June. | smurfy2001 | |
