NAB - National Australia Bank

Some investors preferred NAB over BOQ. Said that NAB has better qualities in its asset base compared to BOQ.... I hold both because of diversification : one is a major and BOQ being a regional bank. Then I too like both because these two currently offer the highest yield at current prices,...Anybody else doing the same ?
 
I hold Ben but I sold some earlier in the week.
Think the banks are getting pricey.
 
Comparing bet NAB and BOQ, I noticed that NAB would drop with a higher rate than BOQ when a drop takes place. But when Financials are gaining, NAB would run-up faster than BOQ. What other bank counters have dropped by more than 6% since this sector weakness started sometime end of last wk ?
 
NAB and BOQ keeps dropping below my Average Price,.. but the hesitation to buy more and average further down is there, in case the prices drop further. Perhaps for long term holds, the yield matters more, and the fear should be that the dps should not drop instead of the share price dropping.

How stable is the dps for each counter here ? Any ideas please ?

I'm tempted too, but I'll wait and see which way the trend - and especially the RSI - breaks before buying more.

Tq oldblue,... the slight risk with yr strategy is if the RSI breaks in an unfavourable manner, then the ctr would run-up real fast before we manage to buy-in. Of course, if it breaks downward, then this would give us opportunities to buy more.
 
I've been long NAB for many years now and kept accumulating up to some point last year (can't remember when). Been enjoying a >10% grossed up average yield for many years now. There might be a time to sell, but for me it's not right now. Mind you I haven't looked at the chart this year.
 
I've held NAB since around 1994, paid around $11 for them. Probably my most longest and heavily held stock. Usually I have at least 2 parcels of them. One parcel I sold out of at around $31.50 just recently. Looking to buy back in again at lower prices and will wait for as long as it takes for the price to come down a bit more. One of the best dividend payers I have ever had and the shares have paid for themselves probably 3 times over that long period of holding. It will be staying in my portfolio and I will be adding at lower prices.

NAB and all Aussie banks been inflated on this Trump Pump , bit of a blow off , upside limited first half 2017 IMO ...

Seems to be a rather low margin even when correcting for franking differences say from ANZ's ANZPG offer.

Correct and with thanks to Quant and NAB:
NAB states that the proceeds (at least $750m) will be used to repay part of the $1.17m issue to NAB Subordinated Note I (ASX code: NABHB) holders, as well as for general purposes. NABHB mature in June 2017 and currently pay a margin of 2.75% which wasn't a bad margin back when the 90 day Bank Bill swap rate was 3.4933% (2012) as opposed to today's 1.5%.
NABPE is targeted at these NABHA NSN holders and is priced accordingly. In todays market as Tier 2 capital under BASL III, NABPE is "rather low" at a predicted margin of 2.2-2.3% and is well below any other hybrid/note (ignoring perpetuals) in the market other than BENHB which has a margin of 1%, matures in 2054 and currently trades at $68.89.
At an offered annual rate paid quarterly of 3.7-3.8% (margin of 2.2-2.3% plus 90 day BBSW of 1.5%) low is correct even with the potential for some cumulative interest.

BOQ in W.A from my experience, isn't working well, I won't be using them again for a term deposit.
 
Sorry abt that,...

Hey, just my opinion, I tried BOQ, used them, wasn't happy with them.
It wasn't personal, but if any one else had the same experience, I would think they would draw the same conclusion.
I went into the branch got a quote on the interest rate I would get, transferred a large sum of money over, when the info came through it was 2.8% rather than the quoted 3%.
I lived with it, but wouldn't recommend them.
I do find it interesting you're sorry about it, are you fishing.lol
