Benjamin Franklin | Citigroup (C) Stocks ? |
I just bought about 155 shares of Citigroup for about $600.00. I have heard that the company has split up into two parts, so what will happen to the shares that I purchased. Secondly, I purchased 155 shares at about 3.87/per share in hopes that it will reach $7 some time soon. About a month or two ago, shares of Citigroup went as low as $3.05 and as high as $9.00+, which means some people were able to double their initial investment within a few weeks! I personally think that the government will not allow Citigroup to go down, because it would be catastrophic and would have negative affects globally, which would be hard to over come. What do you guys think HONESTLY. Won't it eventually bounce back in a few weeks? Thanks in advance to all whom answer and serious answers only please. I would also greatly appreciate it if answers could be supported with some evidence. Thanks again! -BEN |

The stock is unlikely to suddenly bounce back given the current state of affairs. The plan to split Citigroup into Citicorp and Citi Holdings is currently just a reporting treatment designed to persuade the market that Citicorp (the investment and commercial banking parts) is viable and Citi Holdings (riskier parts like asset management, consumer loans, other complex risky assets, and even the profitable Smith Barney brokerage business). So while these units will be managed separately, any losses will still be consolidated into the overall Citigroup stock. The government is guaranteeing a lot of losses, but the details are still unclear and Citi is still exposed to a lot of risk.
The other risk at present is that any capital injections into banks like Citi can dilute existing shareholders (effectively, the government is buying shares in the banks and part nationalizing them). So even if the bank's operating performance does improve, taxpayers are in line to benefit from that as well as existing shareholders. |

you realize that you are gambling not investing. The government may not let Citi fail but Citi could sell off a lot of their business and the bond holders could force them to liquidate their assets - common stockholders are last in line when assets are sold off. The government may not care if the assets were sold off and they got their money back
Bottom fishing investing is very risky and even pro's are leary of doing it. There is a reason why Citi's stock is so low - you don't have any information that thousands of professional investors don't have and they have lots of information that you don't have. So you are just playing a game of blackjack against the house |
