Wouldn't you move it out if you were them?

Limit yourself to big German banks with some, but not too much, exposure to the PIIGS I would guess.

Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostWe will reach a point soon (?) where the best European banks shares will hit rock bottom and there will be bailouts (and probably money printing) and said shares will boom up for a period of months.
Question is, are we there yet and what to buy?
Santander?
Deutsche Bank?
For example Deutsche Bank went sub 20 end of 2008 and then recovered to near 60 in 2010. Currently priced at 24.
Basically need to stick to the "too big to be allowed to fail" camp and then try and guess the bottom, and fill yer boots.
Any views?
