RBS

Just bought a bunch of RBS shares, my thoughts are the worst that can happen is they go bust and I lose the lot, my hope is that all their bad news is now out there so the only way is up, obviously hoping for the latter. What do you think am I mad or shrewd?

No harm in a very small punt. Downside 100%, upside could be astronomical. I think the only reason they won't be worth zero is if the govt bow to shareholder pressure to give some value.

If you're looking to invest middle term then I think they are worth a punt.
Everyone apart from David, as share are wrong in his eyes. Although i'm sure he enjoys his interest rate of the bank every month.

Certainly not looking short term, medium to long (or as long as they're in business)

We'll see, but as the govnt has just pumped £X billion into them then i imagine they will not want them going out of business.
Cheaper to let it fold and pay the unemployment.

Nobody is suggesting they will go out of business, well hardly anyone.

The shares won't have any value this time next year though.

I remeber when oil price was at $10 and everybody said it was a sell.

If you can afford to lose a bit of money then the return could be very good.
