Back in early December 2008 I had suggested a potential opportunity for Allied Irish Banks (AIB) at support; although Anglo Irish had already nixed its own attempt to hold similar support in November.

There was very little joy for AIB shareholders from mid-December
And the brief "Santa rally" utterly collapsed over the past couple of days:
It looks like traders are pricing a new name to AIB, that of Anglo Irish Banks.
