What did I say, three days after Investec downgrades, they move the stock back to a buy. Play them at their own game.

I did take two nibbles at 364-365.5p earlier this week.

Must be news out to push this up today.
The market was falling over itself to get in this morning, why?

[che7win] 22/2/2017 14:38

Think I will nibble

[che7win] 22/2/2017 08:22

Strange that Investec have 46.21p EPS target for 2017 as of last week, and they then downgrade yesterday.Maybe letting in their buddies.Good results from Lloy today, another bank I own.

What has happened the banks today?

Someone has a sniff of what is ahead imho

[opodio] 20/2/2017 09:54

Speculation has intensified over recent days about the future of the Co-operative Bank. According to the Times and the Sunday Times, the Bank may be forced to close, or sell its operations.

I trust OSB bods to buy very well indeed.

opodius - I think you mean 6p not 600p!

[opodio] 20/2/2017 09:50

Opodio, Why would they do that?

[opodio] 20/2/2017 09:02

Blinkin eck, if they buy Coop Bank this will be 600p imho

[che7win] 20/2/2017 09:00

400p approaching, large banks announcing this week.

[che7win] 15/2/2017 15:01

OSB has most upside to me.

[steptoes yard] 15/2/2017 10:00

OSB appear to be outperforming ALD which surprises me but got both so fair enough

[che7win] 15/2/2017 09:57

Uptrend continues for all the banks

[che7win] 11/2/2017 18:30

Maz, That is amusing, I still have a load of shares here, I thought the chart would have a bit further to go here. It is a volatile one and I still hold the bulk of my shares. I guess I only top up here when I think it's fallen too far.I try to protect my capital rather than think of the upside these days. It's costs not to buy and hold too though. Still hoping for 400p here.

[mazarin] 11/2/2017 15:40

Chew7win I thought you'd be amused to know that you bought in about a week later than I did in December last year when I recall you paid about 12p less per share then and part-sold a week later than me this week (to the very day) and still managed get 12p more - how do you do it...? It could have made a difference of just under £1k on my holding, its amazing what difference a week can make, its all about timing. Very annoying - only joking!

[uhound] 10/2/2017 16:47

Not looking to go short then Che7win!

Interesting to see where this goes now as we get closer to results on 16 March.

[che7win] 10/2/2017 15:44

Sold 1000 earlier today at 362.1p and 2007 ALD, no other reason than I want to increase cash.

[mazarin] 08/2/2017 12:01

You could well be right, OSB's previous highs have generally retracted by decent margin, that is until I sold last week and since then remained relatively flat, until today. I reckon PAG is undoubtedly the reason here, although I see ALD is presently flat. It's a strange 'old world' and Good luck to all holders.

[che7win] 08/2/2017 11:55

I thin a good chance we get into the 375-400p range this time, stock has slowly worked up to get here?
