The gov are in the hook here for nearly 3 quid a share, they either cut their losses and sell to RBS for less (an then the share price goes up) or wait for i5 to get to that price, then sell ((an then the share price goes up).
Am happy either way. It's all gravy as they say ;)

[cfc1] 24/6/2020 10:24

true Ham. Actually I believe RBS will go nowhere until divi reinstated and, after Covid, we then have Brexit! Having said that at the equ of 12p this stock is cheap.
Shame they put in a CEO who says nothing, doesnt buy her own stock and a mouse makes more noise!!

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 17:42

The more bitter people sound, usually they missed the boat and hoping for it to come back, or they over invested in a single stock which isn't performing.

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 17:40

Personally, anyone going long on a broad portfolio, of sound companies (with the odd risky one), will be a winner from mid March.
I missed out in the bottom 20% rise in a lot but looked at the bigger picture, and so am happy to invest and just chew the cud.

Posting positions and info is never bad.

hamham - don't take it personally, Polar Fox appears to have some sort of superiority complex so filters most contributors to this board :-)

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 14:21

Hey, polar fox, are the published facts/articles which I post a problem for you?
If so, am sorry they irk you so.
Let's just see how things pan out eh?
(But you can't see this as you filtered me, right?)

Google:

unquote

Thank heavens for the filter.

Yep, so imagine when RBS do eventually buy the govs 62% stake back and remove the shares from circulation, as per the stated plan. Thats gotta be near 9 quid a share on that 380p comparison.

[gcom2] 23/6/2020 11:28

it was around 380p in 20156 years after credit crunch

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 11:26

I am going to retire on this one, hopefully ;)

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 11:23

Actually when the 10 for 1 consolidation was done, it was more like 23p share became 230p share at the time, not 12p?

So twice the bargain currently!!!!

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 11:20

That was a 10 for 1 consolidation, so pretty well the same share price now.
Bargain, considering the profit levels now made, PPI done and dusted and the gov has reduced it's stake by a good 20% percentage already.
ie Gov stake down from 82% to 62%.

[gcom2] 23/6/2020 10:55

rbs 12p pre consolidation

[hamhamham1] 23/6/2020 10:41

Nice banking rise.
Sit back and enjoy!

[hamhamham1] 22/6/2020 16:11

The gov was possibly planning to exit this year, bit this may be delayed by 12-24 months now. But it will happen very soon.

[hamhamham1] 22/6/2020 15:54

Wirecard always seemed a bit.... hmmmmm.

[smurfy2001] 22/6/2020 15:05

Just been reading about Wirecard in the FT shocking.

[hamhamham1] 22/6/2020 15:01

If they did remove 62% of the shares in circulation, imagine the divi levels...
Instead of 14p, that would be about 37p. Niiiiice.
