National Bank of Greece

Post by AdamA »

Anyone have any opinions on this stock (NBG).  Purely speculative...I've been watching it for about a year.  It's around $1.60 right now.  My understanding is that they do a lot of business outside of Greece, and may be cheap right now.  Also pays a dividend 2.4%. 

Again, very speculative, but I see a lot of upside.  Anyone follow this?

I know...but in the end they have to have banks.

But cars aren't banks...

Plus, that car (link above) is sweet.

I do like the look of the 601 Limousine. And with a two stroke engine, everyone would know when I arrived! If I arrived.
