Bank group Barclays announced first-half profits of £2.64bn, down one-third on a year ago. The fall was mostly due to a one-off charge for missold payment protection insurance. Overall, results were respectable, but the market remains unconvinced and the stock is one of the lowest valued major firms in Europe, on a price/tangible-book-value ratio of 0.62. http://www.moneyweek.com/investments/stock-markets/uk/barclays-profits-plummet-54904
BARC is a quality bank like STAN/HSBC it seems to be put in with camp of RBS/LLOY/BNC, I wonder what sort of sovereign exposure they have to Italy,Spain
