Av for den..!
Nogen der vil købe nogle billige Neteller aktier? Jeg har en stak I kan få billigt.. hehe.
Update: Netellersagen
well tak for info...
penge trukket over på party
Hvis du har trukket dine penge væk fra Neteller som følge af ovenstående, eller sagen generelt, så kender du ikke meget til den :9
Neteller som selskab og kundernes penge har ikke i fare som følge af den igangværende sag. Selskabet har alle kunders penge stående på konti krone for krone, og vil til en hver tid kunne indfri enhver forpligtelse selskabet har. Derudover har selskabet selv en meget stor formue, som faktisk også mere eller mindre alt sammen står i likvider.
Konklusionen er at man sagtens kan have penge stående på Neteller og samtidig sove roligt om natten.
Grunden til Neteller aktierne nok får nogle drøje tæsk er, at der i den nuværende kursfastsættelse er indregnet ekspansionsforventninger - som ikke helt kan indfries bl.a. pga. de resurser de skal bruge på at lege katten efter musen med de amerikanske myndigheder.
Så tag du roligt dine penge tilbage til Neteller - der står de mindst lige så sikkert som på party- eneste sted der er mere sikkert er hjemme under hovedpuden.!
