The thing about UK banks..is they usually get bought or bailed out. I'm not worrying, and I don't have enough to be concerned, until they stop servicing the debt. That's the thing about corporate bonds, you've always got that potential redemption back at par. Let the equity investors worry about price action. Say's the man with less in it than his portfolio bounces aound by the minute.
It is finding the sweet spot. It is a junk bond with little chance of getting repaid at par or will some nice sole come along and refinance at par when it reaches maturity.

Well I am pleased you are having fun. With all the links and sources you provide on these forums I know I am learning a lot more about the companies I have money in than I would without you.

I bought a couple of hundred shares at £3.50 each. I am a little annoyed. Metro needs an entirely new board and a different direction. A possible merger with starling or virgin maybe helpful.

I wasn't concerned, TTH, just caught by how quickly prices can move! This is one I plan to hold onto.

I should say, when I've got more cash in my WA account if there's any about I'm going to buy more AA. I liked the results.
Your wish is my command!! AA paused on Robowise... so more on the way!
