HBOS - is anyone going to take up their rights to buy more shares?

Question

I have little knowledge of the stock market, but this does not look a particularly good offer. Is anyone going to take up their rights to buy more shares, or is there so little profit to be gained that it is not worth it? Thanks.

Answer 1

Last time i checked HBOS shares were about 250-275 which is the lowest they have ever been so now could be the time to buy.However, being the biggest morgage lender in uk means they are much more open to losses if we go into recession.Maybe a good long term investment but in the short term a bit risky.

Answer 2

Not at the moment. Except the underwriters

Answer 3

I would buy them up now while the share price is low.

This is the lowest I've ever seen HBOS at, I remember selling mine last year for 11, now they are like 4, not much money to be gotten, so defo buy.Also all the big wigs at HBOS are buying them to show that they have faith they will rise again, to inset confidence in their employees.

the stock market will rise again, and then you may regret the money that could have been made.
