Metro Bank Share Discussion Threads

[ygor705] 24/2/2021 17:25

In an environment where even the top professionals in commercial banking are struggling to make a buck, I can't really see where Metro Bank is heading. The post-Pandemic bad debt season is still to come and negative interest rates are still a possibility. I think that the Board should be looking to merge with somebody with deep pockets........but who wants bricks and mortar banking these days? GS still looks to be the most likely candidate but I suspect that they won't be any hurry. Surprises me that there hasn't been a run on the Bank but they also don't appear to be fashionable any more.

Ball Deap keeps calling mtro a bank, like it should be lumped in with the ftse 350 sector

This is all expected but having reviewed the accounts all day I am content:
£40.6m LOSS was the Exit from London Old Bailey Offices
£124m COVID19 related

So over £160m or 52% of Annual Loss is attributed to those 2x factors alone

Also H2 had improved NIM margins and CAPEX OPEX was always going to be higher

All in all FEE INCOME too was better than I thought considering DEAD economic activity for a year!

So as Lockdown eases this should mean REDUCED losses Im estimating sub £100m for 2021... if all things go to plan!

All GUESSWORK

Most banks turning blue from earlier losses today... even Lloyds just turned Blue again...

Metro will bounce like the other banks did on results day and over the following few days after... will head towards 160 again as people put 2020 out of their minds and focus on 2021.

Currently the markets are turning Bullish for 2021 with vaccines going well and restrictions reducing and dates getting put in the diaries to reopen the economies of the world...

Both JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs are looking to expand in the UK banking sector.

It much easier to buy a cheap bank than get new banking licences approved...
