portside1: I heard a story of a bank robber in east London he walked into the branch stuck the sawn off over the counter and said give me all the money the staff said yes just don't shoot we will even take you to the vault then he looked over her shoulder and saw the Barclays logo. He said no wait there is honour amongst thieves and your cash is even dirtier than I am then he walked out.

• "Barclays (NYSE:BCS) wants to tell a tale of growth, but its audience is struggling to suspend its disbelief," writes Paul Davies in the WSJ, noting shocking underperformance for the stock this year - down 13% vs. an index of European banks up 11%.
• The bank's three main businesses - U.K. retail banking, U.S. credit cards, and investment banking - all are showing either poor growth, or risks to growth.
• Investment banking head Tim Throsby says just a modest increase in revenues would produce a large boost in profitability, but that's been the mantra for years, says Davies. Better to begin returning cash to shareholders rather than using it to chase market share in investment banking.

The directors are only interested in their free hand outsThey do not give a toss about the investors They are no more than crooks and liars And the silence from our so called ceo/ chairman point this out It's time to take action their time is running out And reclaim all their free handouts back they have failed and lied for to long

Portside - Of course I have views. As you say, the FTSE's going up and BARC are going down, and as I'm mostly in banks I daren't even look at what my portfolio is costing me.

[portside1] 29/9/2017 10:53

I went into barcs last week seating down with an advisor when he was telling me about investing money . I stopped him and said our can you advise investors coming into the bank when you can not even give me advice on why barcs is so badly run and do you not think you are giving out poor advice because you do not have a clue about the bank you work for he went white and said I can not help you and walked away
