Bank Of Ireland shares?

i bought some for 16euro in 2007.i wonder will they go back up to that level in march!?!?!!?!

well aib are in dyer straights and there shares are still 27 cent

so boi wud have to nearly go bust to drop to 20 cent

my guess is they will stay around 36 cent for 6 months then rise steadily wen the banks restructure get smaller and start getting back on their feet

if ur buying them be patient maybe a year or 2 and they cud easily hit €1

Was thinking more like a couple of euros,16euro fcuk.

im being ironic!!

Do they not have to raise over 1.4 Billion by March......

I very much doubt they will raise this, meaning Govt steps in funds by buying shares meaning share price ducks

long term - yes

short term - no

Pal who bought them was told by employee BOI all debt nearly paid back and lending more money,results out end of february he told him to buy now before results come out.

Was his brother.

wasn't his own shares he sold was it

....insider trading .....

have no interest in politics whatsoever...what i dont understand is as we all know is that fianna fail were in power for the good  times and put us up **** creek in recent times... anglo irish are the core root of our recent downfall and who is at the helm? "the great alan dukes" a former leader of fine gael... so how do you vote for these muppets?

Who will you vote for Jackdaws?

anyone wanna buy my 9000 anglo irish bank shares?

dont know honestly...problem is too many"so called politicans"in this are country are their fathers sons..

sorry politicians

we wont have an economy in 2015.. its all fecked

Speaking of banking, who is this idiot that`s chairing The Late Debate now? Pompous git doesn`t half love the sound of his own voice!

have 2 agree gs.. a proper toolbox!!! they can debate all they like but our problems go way back more than 2 years.. i would say our problems started when we gained sovereinty decades ago

It really is a proper mess Jackdaws.

just bought 100 k's worth .

Serious advice alert, both banks are in equal trouble genuinely, this will be confirmed in the media later on in the year, they just saved the face of one of them.

I'll get slated on here for saying it but i have it on good authority.

^^ probably right. unwilling to loan a button.

'Hatch' thats a tuff call, tho I tink in 2009 Feb or so BOI shares were around 15/16 cent and with the arrival of Nama got to 3.40 so a nice winner for any one that took on all the involved risks at that time i.e. nationalisation etc and of course got out in August of that same yr. So good luck with that....

I'm waiting for Blessingtons advice before I plunge.

BOI will have to be nationalised along with the others in the next 6 months. Share's will be worth next to nothing then. Any projected return should be calculated for a max of the next 3 months. I wouldn't touch them personally

Buy RBS, will be five pounds in a few years. Paying their debt off steadily. Currently 40 odd pence.

Shares are fools gold at the best of times and investing in irish bank shares now is probably the most reckless financial invstment you could ever make imo.

I don't know how you can say shares are fools gold when they have performed well over any medium/long term comparison you can make.What is foolish however is putting a large % of your assets in any one share.
