    I'd like to see the FESX take out it's trend support before I went calling for a sell off but if you're specifically talking about BOI then I dont know

    I'd watch them. Big news this morning about another US bank folding. Will most likely effect the market over here in the short to mid term. So even if BOI go up they will come down imo.

    12c was the time to buy 3 months ago.

    BOI closed at 1.46 on Friday the 22nd May.

    Now is the time to buy before the "Bad bank" alleviates debts off BOI and AIB!

    If any share is progressively gaining value (ignoring day to day blips) then it's a good time to buy! ;)

    But now this Bad Bank move by the Govt should cause the bank shares to rise sharply!

    I jumped back in just before close on Friday.
    I think im gonna hold these until they go above that price. Ill put a fairly far stop at first and then once they start going up above what i bought them at i'll trail the stop behind until it falls enough to hit it.

    Hopeflly they'll start upward soon.

    I'm asking what others think, I asked before if you thought there would come a moment when it seemed the worst was over & once nationalisation was out of the way do you think it would basically be a steady rise from then on, are you saying that some people think now is the time?

    Not on this Leg down but not saying they will never see 1euro again on bad news etc, feel they will hit support at @1.20+- before next leg up.

    Would you have another dip in the pool below 120c ranger?. I was thinking that there would be further unemployent level rises and as a result, further bad credit card debt and following that more threats of foreclosures. I might take a punt and i mean 'gamble' on boi again if it went below the euro, not a big punt but something to take on holiday.

    I would be buying boi below or at 1.20.

    When you say watching and waiting are thinking about making a long-term bet? May be a stupid question but when do you think we will have a real idea about the long term future of the Banks?

    God i wish i knew, Im no expert, i'm waiting for the day the USA shares do well, and then i'll buy more BOi + AIB as the recent trends are that if USA does well a day or so later the irish shares go up also.

    I've been watching and recently if you buy in the morning and sell by lunch time there is a small profit to be had.

    But dont listen to me, im only a begineer

    Managed to buy aib at 1.40 last week and sold today at 1.61, probably will see further gains for few more days but i feel the expected negitive Local elections will spell disaster for ff which in turn will bring a level of uncertainty back into iseq with the chance of a collapse of gov with no confidence call in ff, Not a bad idea to take some profits i feel before the **** hits the fan.

    Who has the nerves of steel? Sell now at a profit

    or

    Risk a bad announcement and the share price will freefall!

    Decisions... Decisions... :confused:

    Any thoughts everyone?

    What announcement? Nationalisation?

    Wednesday the 3rd Isn't today the day we get a Yay or Nay on NAMA?

    I saw one trade of over 700,000 BOI shares a few days ago whoever bought all those must know something we don't?

    At that level that's 1.1m shares, whoowee that's something!

    Insider knowledge???

    Personally I think the NAMA plan has to go ahead or our main two banks will be slower to recover.

    Cowen has dropped enough hints that its going ahead, in his subtle as a mullingar bullock style. :)

    so if the NAMA plan does go ahead as you predict, whats the immediate effect on share price - increase, right?
