Dope - when this returns to private 100% the institutions will pile in.....or they might wait for a return to divi... Take your choice - I have loaded up on this stock for years and I believe it will be a massive outperformer sooner than we think - THATS why I think its undervalued

[dope007] 17/5/2013 10:14

cfc1 will it be undervalued when all the defaults roll in?

Here comes the free money. WalMart the biggest USA retailer clearly didn't miss all its forcasts, or profit warn. And all the economic data clearly beat all forcasts again yesterday.

The disconnect between equities and the real world due to failed QE just gets bigger and bigger.

PARIS--French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said Friday he expects the country's economy to grow in the second half of this year, two days after official data showed France fell into recession at the beginning of this year.

"Forecasts for the second quarter are better," he said in an interview with local radio station RTL. "Beware, let's not expect a strong growth in 2013," Mr. Moscovici added.

PARIS--New car registrations in the European Union rose by 1.7% in April from a year earlier, according to latest industry data released Friday, giving hope to Europe's battered volume car makers that the market may be bottoming out after a 20-month downward spiral.

Automobile sales in Europe have been sapped by sagging economic activity and rising unemployment that have undermined consumer confidence in the area. Chronically weak demand has forced the volume car makers in Europe into drastic efforts to slash costs and idle production lines to cut losses and prevent costly inventories from building up.

At the same time, they have been trying hard to boost sales in more robust markets in Asia, Russia and Latin America.

Registrations of new cars totalled 1.04 million vehicles in April, according to latest provisional data released by ACEA, an automobile industry group based in Brussels. ACEA attributed the increase in April - the first monthly rise since September 2011 - to two more working days compared to the same month of 2012. It noted that the monthly total was the third lowest for a month of April since ACEA started keeping records in 1990.

Over the first four months of this year, registrations of new cars were 7.1% below the level of the same year-ago period, according to the ACEA data.

Market leader Volkswagen AG (VOW.XE) recorded a 9.9% rise in its registrations, a proxy for sales, in April, allowing it to boost its market share by two percentage points to 26.5%. France's PSA Peugeot-Citroen (UG.FR), by contrast, saw a 10% drop in sales last month, with a corresponding 1.5 percentage point fall in its market share to 11.2%. European Union sales of PSA's alliance partner General Motors Co (GM) were down 4.5% compared to April 2012.

PSA's local rival Renault SA (RNO.FR) recorded a 5.3% increase in April from a year before, while those of Italy's Fiat SpA (F.MI) were down 10%.

Asian manufacturers Toyota Motor Co (TM), Nissan Motor Co (7201.TO) and Hyundai Motor Co. (HYMLY) posted sales increases 5.3%, 5.8% and 2.2% respectively.

Among the German premium brands, Daimler AG (DAI.XE) did well in April with an 11% sales rise, while BMW's (BMW.XE) sales fell 3.7%.

Industry executives and analysts expect the overall European market could contract by up to 5% this year compared to 2012.

"according to BOJ estimates (footnote 4), a 100bp (parallel) rise in market yields would lead to mark-to-market (MTM) losses of 20% of Tier-1 capital for regional banks and 10% for the major banks."

No problem .... just print more Yen ... ;-)
