Good two way tussle bulls and bears, must admit I rather be long at 179p than short at 179p.

Be carefull on your short at 181p Barc could turn up bigtime on one bit of good news.

Spain gdp surprise the market up.

buywell2 not all debt is bad as it's how the financial world operates (until the US try package up bad debt!), I suggest you read "banking for dummies" before posting on chatboards.

hippo - the market cap is 40% less than last month, which suggests a move north is more likely

Added more 177p

My target is £1.57, but I will close on the turn now, as it's a good couple of days profit.

And insurance buywell2? Yup thought not, best not mention insurance via US banks and insurers for the debt they hold. Nor should we mention any assets held against them or the increacing price of their German and US holdings.

Just be a bit careful in case S & M say something good, but I doubt it.

[montyhedge] 16/8/2011 08:50

Great for trading nicking a few pence and profit when you can. Secret is don't be to greedy. Bears in total control.

[montyhedge] 16/8/2011 08:20

Impossible for Eurobond for 3 years, got to change the law. Market wants the impossible.

[newm0del4rmy] 16/8/2011 08:18

Reality check...market hates uncertainty.




Germany's Angela Merkel faces eurobond mutiny

German Chancellor Angela Merkel's coalition partners are threatening a withdrawal from government if she agrees to eurobonds or any form of fiscal union to prop up southern Europe.

Barc down but not much, could the bears be running out of fire power.
