I think UK banks would be much stronger today but for this wretched European shorting ban which means UK banks might have to be used as proxies.

Must admit I thought that SOC Gen BUY Target of 400p would push this over at least 200p today, still not the end of trading yet, only just beginning.

A very good buy price for barc right now but ignore the buy ratings. They NEVER give you a date. A massive cop-out if ever there was one as they can never be held to account.
Its like me saying price taget £7, but without a dte it means sod all.

What happened to 210 on Monday? lol...I reckon its going to be sunny today, blue skies and all that a the clue:-)

[montyhedge] 15/8/2011 07:27

Prediction from the No.1 trader over 220p will be hit later this week.

[montyhedge] 15/8/2011 07:25

No those who paid 750p for Barc, don't beleive it.

[shareho1der] 15/8/2011 07:23

Most people dont believe in price target.

[montyhedge] 15/8/2011 07:22

400p will do nicely.

[ny boy] 15/8/2011 07:21

montyhedge> Send the link :-)

Only 400p? lol!

[montyhedge] 15/8/2011 07:16

SOC GENERALE HAS COME OUT WITH A BUY, PRICE TARGET 400P.

..hate the game, not the player.

Nice to have a spare million at these times.

[smurfy2001] 14/8/2011 13:43

He bought a million pounds worth at 217p recently, that shows confidence...

02/08/2011 BUY BARC Barclays PLC Diamond, Robert CEO 457,482 217.50 p £995,023

The company did not pay for them....

[solarno lopez] 14/8/2011 13:34

But did he pay for them......I don't think so

[smurfy2001] 14/8/2011 13:17

Bob Diamond CEO holds £24m shares, that's confidence in my book...

Or the nuclear option, no longer respond to posters unknown, bit harsh but it's always the few that spoil it for the rest, as amply shown by the walking fecal matter, aka the rioters.

[wilba] 14/8/2011 09:23

Ken just ban him He's not a paying customer.

[kenbachelor] 14/8/2011 09:03

There are too many people around with nothing to do. On 10 August treavis2 posted the following

Ken;
Looked everywhere but obviously not in the right place to find the e.mail link to contact you. Could you point me in the right direction please.
Ta

I responded telling him to look on the FTSE thread but have heard nothing more, although I have checked my e-mail inbox at regular intervals. I've now checked for postings from travis2 and find the one mentioned is the only post listed against that name.

This is the last post I'll be putting on this thread.

[bobp] 13/8/2011 23:11

Robert, a good post, makes you think!!

Diversification with a lean towards the sector most likely to 'put weight on' will do the trick. As things are it's shares and maybe buying then renting out a low maintenance property that's in an area where there's demand...

I'm geting 3% on savings in the wifes ( no interest) name, shares took a whack.

I've too much in savings with the value going backwards! Something I'll address after we move house next week and settle the old finances a bit.

[enormouswillie] 13/8/2011 18:58

what about WAGES ?

[montyhedge] 13/8/2011 14:18

I think 219p next week.

[lock2] 13/8/2011 13:48

Any predictions for Monday ?
The sooner £2.00 is broke the better, I think they will increase to £2.30 quickly.
