Programme Overview

With Northern Rock shares rising and falling on bid rumours, we look at the prospects for the banking sector as a whole – and ask whether you should buy, sell or hold.

Dominic Picarda gives us his Market View – and looks for opportunites for short-term trading.

In our Market Mover interview, George Luckraft, equity income fund manager at AXA Framlington, reveals which bank shares he's still holding – and when he sold out of Northern Rock.

Then, Mr Bearbull asks whether the City is playing games with the Bank of England over its support to UK banks.

And, finally, Dan Looney of Towry Law and Richard Anderson of Investors Chronicle debate how much of a portfolio should now be allocated to UK equities.
