Barclays Share Discussion Threads

Savogi, I agree with your sentiment but unfortunately there is little to back up your conclusion that the banks are on a knife edge. Why do you not respond to the question posed about the validity of the BoE stress test results?

LOL.. Sorry if I've touched a nerve....Just a bit of advice... It is very dangerous to fall in love with your stocks to the extent that you become irrational and blind where nobody dares mention anything negative.

Savogi - Fascinated by why you think the Stress tests are unreliable. I'm very familiar with them so would value your insights.....

Couldn't resist a purchase on the bell. Looking cheap to me at the moment.

When shares drop in between the divi payments we always get players watching the down, Equally a month or two before the big divi we get the share price flying back up as the institutions use their models to plough in for cash.

I think the biggest player on the cash front at the moment is the FTSE being lower which has dropped Barclays in proportion.

As long as you can make 5% - 10% a year then things are going well. I guess it is about being able to ride the waves !

sigmund,

"Another (scientifically unqualified?) spouting nonsense - just what we need. The global climate has never ever shown any genuine sign of being significantly affected by humans - it's just , science-free activist quasi-religion. All the main areas of the globe have shown a slight cooling for about 18 years now while atmospheric CO2 levels have risen steadily. Mr Carney - there are many genuine problems in the world to worry about."

He should not be wasting his time on this

You need to wake up and see the handwriting on the wall.. Have you been sleep walking for the last 10 years?



There is, however, a deeply disturbing paradox in the fact that Goldman bankers are now effectively running the world’s monetary system.

BOE is managed by goldman sachs,? you've lost the plot

[savogi] 30/9/2015 11:13

LOL.. If you believe BOE you believe anything! The stress tests are highly unreliable and useless..the banking system is much weaker and more vulnerable than the BOE would have us believe. The BOE is a member of the same crony ponzi system and is managed and controlled by Goldman Sachs..

The previous tests have proven to be nothing than unreliable. They failed to identify the collapse of the Irish banking system. And they didn't prevent Dexia failing in 2012

The problem is that everytime the share price goes down,the investors always are looking for someone to blame for their troubles and losses and lash out and point the finger at the guy who called it right. I can understand the frustration but you are where you are because you allow it to be.There will always be those who,not understanding the situation,will go bottom fishing,and their number has skyrocketed since few years ago.

Wow - Barclays are able to cover 7% of all Liabilities.

That is good.

A 3% yield or even 10% yield is not worth it, because when the thing falls apart, your 3% will be gone in an hour.

[clond] 30/9/2015 08:07

Dividends keeping this one alive. 7p a year going to be worth 3% a year.

Perfect storm inbound, as I said last month EU banks and indexes are going to get killed and they are in the process of getting killed. Look at STAN, it is heading for ultimate lows as I predicted, as is the DAX. Dyor,

Oh dear oh dear... Very intersting

Jim Willie: If Deutsche Bank Goes Under It Will be Lehman Times Five!

With rumors escalating that Deutsche Bank’s derivatives book may be on the verge of collapse, we thought it apropos to revisit our exclusive interview Jim Willie on the topic:

When asked by The Doc how Deutsche Bank differs from Lehman Brothers in 2008, and what events could lead to a renewed banking crisis, Willie responded:

My best German source informs me that 3 major banks are in trouble, and these 3 banks are fighting every single night to fight off insolvency and failure. He says CitiGroup in New York, Barclays in London, and Deutsche Bank in Germany- every single night are in trouble.
