I agree, people tend to sell their winners and hold on to their losers but I actively try to combat this bias. This stock wouldn't be so bad if it were paying a dividend, could justify just holding forever

Yeh and no dividend, bought just before covid too how unlucky :/

Round and round in circles......from Wiki:

National Westminster Bank

The merger of National Provincial and Westminster Bank in 1968, surprised the British public and banking community "as it was still widely assumed...that any merger among the 'Big Five' would not be permitted." Nevertheless, the financial authorities did permit the merger and a new company, National Westminster Bank, was formed to acquire the share capital of the two constituent banks. The enlarged entity now had a network of 3,600 branches.[11]
unquote

Since the big merger, more than 50 years ago, what a record of fun, frolic and disaster, as the share price reflects....

Could be fun - anything that damages Orangeman is to be welcomed, IMO:

The publication date of a tell-all book by President Donald Trump's niece Mary Trump has been moved up to July 14 from July 28, publisher Simon & Schuster said, citing "high demand and extraordinary interest." The book has been the subject of a legal battle, with President Trump saying his niece is "not allowed" to write it. The book is titled "Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man."

Been out since early on, but I heard Rose being interviewed on the Today programme just before I left.

With the bank in its close period, there wasn't anything she could give away, but she did say that NatWest has made about £9bn in loans under the lockdown rules and guidelines. She was totally unwilling to speculate on how the overall CV-19 scenario could play out, from all relevant perspectives.

I wasn't too impressed with how she came across - low-key, little in the way of positive leadership. I won't be expecting much four weeks hence....

is RBS now officially the WORST performing stock on the planet since 2009?
