Default Lloyds TSB

Do you guys think that the share price of Lloyds TSB will rise on Monday, assuming that the merger with HBOS is approved, or drop because of the lifting of the ban on short selling?

Regards

Jeff

The short selling ban on UK financials was lifted this morning.
If your broker won't let you go short on stocks look at buying PUT warrants on UK banks launched by RBS today.
Example: PUT Barclays Strike 100p warrant 20p (Out of the money)
PUT Barclays Strike 160p Warrant 53p (In the money)
