After the OPS of Intesa Sanpaolo and UBI Banca, many expected a new season and radical changes for Italian banks. The sector has been in deep crisis for several years and many stocks of primary institutes they still lose 80/90% from the highs reached in previous years.
Today we will try to understand why Italian banks continue not to go up, rather to go down to Piazza Affari.
Our analysis will start from the evaluation of the financial statements of the last few years using the discounted cash flow model and then go on to report the consensus and the recommendations of the analysts and then define the pulse of the situation from a graphic point of view. Finally, we will give our buy / sell judgment for each share analyzed.
What are the stocks we are going to analyze?

Why do Italian banks continue not to go up or rather to go down to Piazza Affari?
The study of financial statements and charts, except for the case of Banco BPM which remains overvalued, does not encourage purchases either in the short or medium-long term. It is not a bargain to buy Italian banks and for this reason we are looking for other opportunities at a good price in Piazza Affari.
We will proceed step by step.
