    Excuse my ignorance but I'm going to ask anyway...

    In September 2011 BOI shares were trading at €0.07 per share. Today they're trading at €0.14 per share.

    If I had bought €5k worth of shares in September would they now be worth €10k?

    Mad isn't it, nothing like making easy money? Don't take my word listen to the experts who advised not to at 7c and now at 14c!! Plenty of opps with BoI shares.

    So BOI shares doing quite well. 40 cent high this year and currently at 27 cent.

    Could be up to a euro by 2020.

    Yes!! Having lost a chunk with the original bank crash, bought plenty new @ 7 cent and 12 cent. Well into the black now :)

    I think it'll be a while to reach € 1.00 but who's in a hurry? Divi's next year ?

    I think they are undervalued currently. I think 40c-45c with divs is a fair price.

    down 22% YTD though.

    It's an independent (original state funding more or less repaid) Pillar Bank, as the Irish economy improves, it is reasonable certainty so too will the fortunes of pillar banks. BoI is unquestionably the lead player (of all home players) and will remain so for a considerable period.

    I think it a no brainer, that even a punt of € 2k will yield rich rewards eventually.

    Remember me when you've made it big !:D

    They have a sizeable operation in the UK too. Although that could a double edged sword considering how overpriced the UK property market is though. They are actively reducing their LTV on new mortgages in the UK to limit their risk

    They already have almost 1% of current mortgages in the UK and are pretty much making more there than they are here at the moment with the partnership with Post Office. All good so far anyway but like you said, it could work both ways.

    Probably. But the way the shares are getting hammered with the poll during the week, Brexit might be pretty much priced into the share price

    I hope these shares keep on dropping.

    I'll buy some if they reach 15c, if they go to 10, it's worth a few grand.

    Absolutely! Iv been watching a number of shares myself for a first dip into the stock markets. I only have 5-6k The plan was to spread the money between 3-4 diferent companys but if the price keeps droping il put 2-3k into BoI. With dividend on the way in the next year or two you cant go wrong can you?

    Also i assume the week the uk goes to the polls would be a good week to buy?

    I piled in a bit yesterday at 0.22 aswell. I was holding a long term loss on an ETF that was trading at its level and showing no signs or reason to hope for a recovery to near what was paid.
    Sold them at a loss of @40% over what I'd paid, now that said the dividend return over the time I'd held it meant total was only @20%.
    Piled it all into BOI as a longterm hold, wasn't expecting to see such an uptick already nor do i expect it to swing up in any meaningful fashion til at least 2017 and the return of a dividend
    I'm happy to let it sit, if I could get lower ISE trading costs however I'd probably consider a few flips to crystalize any gains.

    It was more like 20% by the end of yesterday, but unfortunately I didn't sell. Was always prepared to hold longer term if the vote was 'leave'.

    It's only a loss if your sell, the current price is as meaningless as the 10% gain you made a few days ago in a single day :)

    Not if you are leveraging your equity like some trading houses do.

    Also some investors are more disciplined in their trading. They will close a position based off a movement of X%, or some who will only buy shares if the stock is part of a specific index (eg fund managers). If a price drops and the stock falls out of the index, then the fund manager would sell the stock, regardless of whether its a loss or a profit for them.

    I'm pretty sure none of that applies to alb, who my post referred to.

    As Bank Of Ireland is nearly a penny stock is it a good long term investment or is everyone treating it like a penny stock to try and get quick and big returns? I'm worried about the liquidity of it if something happened and needed to sell!

    Morningstar surprisingly puts it nearly at a buy at 3.7/5

    I'm considering it because of talks they will begin dividends next year with nearly a 5% yield.

    BoI is still a very risky stock, the UK will no longer have to prop up any more of these EU zombie banks. It now looks like another financial crises is developing.
