English term or phrase: at the top of the market
The bank most in need of extra capital is Royal Bank of Scotland, which rashly bought ABN Amro ***at the top of the market*** last year.

Non capisco bene cosa si intenda con "at the top of the market" in questa frase: mi pare che il concetto sia quello della "scalata"... mi sbaglio della grossa?

quand le quotazioni volavano
Explanation:
Quando i prezzi sono molto alti. Ora, o meglio ieri, i prezzi per chi voleva comprare una banca erano proprio al "bottom of the market". Yesterday's Economist I imagine.
