Hoping to put in 5-10 grand. Hope to double my money.
For long term investment, I think the best UK listed banks are HSBC & Standard Chartered."The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." CiceroComment

Its not such much the issue that Germany is fiddling while Rome burns its the fact Rome has burnt down while Germany is still haggling over the price the orchestra wants for playing.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Banking shares flying today. Barclays up 8%. Lloyds 5%
Sold out at +4, but annoyed and knowing my luck they're probably go up further. But that's it for me. Just holding Yell now waiting to see if they get the debt written down and then that's me out completely in anticipation of WW3.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

For me it would be Barclays or HSBC. Neither have had government handouts and I believe have "relatively" little exposure to the European banks. I've had my eye on both of these for some time and not jumped in yet. Too much risk for me.
If I were to have some play money for a punt Barc would have to drop below £1.55 and HSBC £4.00Comment

PS. Why is "wanking" not converted to "tuliping" ?Comment
