HSBC hit a low on Feb.11th and I doubled my position on that date at $69.50/ADR. The low on that day was $69.25/ADR. Those shares have subsequently paid dividends totaling $3.75/ADR. I do not expect the share price to return to those levels ever.In my opinion the ADR share price will close the year at or about $120/ADR. That price may seem overly optimistic to some but the fundamentals support my analysis. I also expect new revenue streams out of Korea and China as ventures in those areas begin to show results. It is also quite possible that there will be an announcement in the second quarter of 2009 that no further provisions for write downs will need to be made as they have been fully accounted for.
Just my opinion of course and folks should do their own homework.

with Britain weak, HSBC should go down to less than 70 ReplyBy How Much Have Foreign Bank Stocks Fallen? [view article]
The British banks have serious dividends ( at this price level ), and also do not suffer dividend withholding tax.Is it time to get a few shares?
Or are we waiting for armageddon?

Thanks kkin365. They are alphabetized by company name. Do you mean by ticker? ReplyWall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News [view article]
Excellent coverage as usual. Suggest that you alphabetize earnings report (after close and before open as 2 groups, as now) to facilitate reading. ReplyAn Evaluation of the SEC’s Prohibition on Naked Short Selling [view article]
To put it shortly, it takes a long time to grow a tree and only a few minutes to chop it down.... ReplyAn Evaluation of the SEC’s Prohibition on Naked Short Selling [view article]
The 'Short and Distort' artists we see destroying the market and companies today are basically supported by organized crime. Buying a quantity of puts beyond which are needed to protect long positions actually held should be prohibited. Naked shorting should have NEVER been allowed, even for market makers and their ilk. Offshore hedge funds seem to think they can operate with impunity from the balmy blue of the Carribean. Local sleezemeisters think they can do so due to SEC oblivion. In the process of shorting, naked or otherwise, the legitimate dreams of many law abiding investors have gone down the toilet. There was a time when investors had faith in companies and trusted that companies would do well over time, despite market perturbations. This healthy confidence has been usurped by liars, cheats, and thieving rumor-mongers who shout 'Fire' in a crowded theatre. The SEC simply must stop this and also reinstitute the uptick rule so normal investors have at least some scintilla of a chance.

Maybe actually reading the information contained in the study by Arturo Bris would help? The study claims that the stocks in question did worse than others and they did. The caveat that all seem to overlook is that the period the study covers is the first half of the year. Well of course the stocks in question performed worse in the period PRIOR to the emergency order --that is why they were put on protection from the naked short onslaught... Reply
