So....

it looks like TD and Scotia are out and likely National now too and RBC is out with their HSBC acquisition.....
 
interest is waning and less players means a potential stink bid....and likely BOD will not be able to accept any bid far off the $55 to $60 bid....after all book value is just under $60

so they get a low bid and decline and carry on but the price is gonna TANK back to low 30s

this is much more risky than investors think.....just because its a bank stock and paying 4.75% dividend that does not help you if you have a loss from $40 to $32 is and that is a loss of 20%....so your dividend will take 5 years just to get you back to even....

I own shares at around $33. I bought on the recommendation of Ross Healy at BNN.  I think you are now are so negative that you are convincing yourself there is no interest in LB because you are worried you could have made a lot of easy money.   You sold at a loss and now you are like short seller, wanting others to lose as well.    You post false information just to help ...more

Not one analyst has said RBC was out of this because of their HSBC buy.  But 88 has already posted they are out of the running.   Funny how he lies to himself.
