I've heard a Chinese bank looking, but could be blocked by government.

Troubled challenger lender Metro Bank, on the other hand, rose nearly 12 per cent as rumours gained traction that it could be a takeover target.

In dire figures released after the market closed on Wednesday, it slipped to a loss of £3.3million in the first nine months of this year, while founder Vernon Hill finally stepped aside as chairman into an 'emeritus chairman' role.
But chief executive Craig Donaldson refused to rule out a takeover when asked if Metro had received any approaches. 

On the City rumour mill, Lloyds Bank's name has been added to a list that also includes RBS and HSBC as potential buyers. Metro closed up 11.5 per cent, or 22.2p, at 215.8p.

Oh Sparky Sparky Sparky!!! BOD buys == good news; No BOD buys == interesting news

You, my young padawan, have mastered the first rule of ramping: "Every news (including no news) is good news"

Hmm that's interesting no BOD buys, I wonder why ??????Someone sniffing around ?

Sell the news

It's interesting that it's Barclays that warns.
The big 4 didn't like the competition.

IMO

Interesting to see who blinks first I reckon ENA closed a chunk yesterday as they are the most exposed.

You bozos think a little rise in price will make the shorter leave the board.
It must annoy you all a lot when this shorter is looking for a rise .

Haha
