    I guess aib would be a good investment which should yield good profit from todays closing price in 2-3 years.

    AIB - best of two rubbish choices

    Yep, the way the anglo chairman behaved with hidden loans etc and the way the shareholders were shafted makes you wonder if aib and boi have some majoir issues concerning possible exposure to bad debts etc, the markets sure seem to think so, I will probably hold onto my aib stock and hope withinn a few years that i might see some profit.

    Ah for crying out loud mate will you go and read some of the posts here and on other forums and stop making crazy statements comparing Anglo to AIB.
    The markets dont seem to think AIB are in the same boat as Anglo, they think
    Ireland Inc is screwed. Its not a reflection on bad debt exposure at this stage.
    Irish bank stocks reflect the economic situation of Ireland at this stage not just
    loan exposure.
    The next person to talk about director loans bringing down Anglo should be bloody banned at this stage in my opinion.
    80m of loans on a 70bn loan book is irrelevant
