Lloyds Share Price (LLOY)

Lloyds would be over 70p now if its share price performed in line with Barclays and Natwest, clearly it hasn't, I have to say the difference in market sentiment makes little sense to me. The market appears to be ignoring buyback's, so I can only guess that it's possibly the dividend debasement that upset sentiment and resulted in Lloyds stock underperforming since. Under AHO Lloyds did buyback's, but only enough to counteract the effect of block listings and the Lloyds dividend still hasn't recovered to the pre-covid level under Nunn.

Brixton I totally agree that what the share price should be now !!!

Huntmaster no regrets at all glad to be out been in lloyds since 2008 this share is shocking and you know it still got 20000 shares a dealing account which I'm stuck with for a while so let's see if your predictions comes true while my 26000 rolls royce shares I bought for £1 do lol

I think it is highly likely that Labour will give an amnesty to most all illegals. It will be under the guise of the UK needing more workers, and as we are paying for their 'stay' now, why not get them 'earning', which will fool the elderly and other naive millions trusting such 'simple' but flawed logic.

Yet even if the few who would then 'work', they will be paying in next to nothing, BUT then be claiming thousands in housing benefit, council tax funding, in a few short months huge amounts of what was child and working tax credits, now under the Universal credits.

So they would be increasing our costs not saving us anything, and then as they breed, and as more enter, will finally impoverish this land, as they have their own.

They need removing from our country and a simple dna swab would show where they belong, if not willing to say where.

Eventually they would get the message.

Otherwise Lloyds, closely following the UK's economy, will never get out of the mire, only deeper into it.

Of course, imo, the increase in illegals arriving since Brexit is NOT coincidence, but as HMG KNEW that many voted for Brexit 'BECASUE' we were swamped with immigrants, what 'better' for HMG than to 'increase' the amounts now we are out, to 'pave the way' for a future massive rule change with our current 'agreement' with the EU, which most all politicians never wanted.

Watch and see.

~~~ this week's observation - Bank Q1 results uppy week, russia/ukraine/israel/hamas hostilities rattle on - cost of living continues to bite, strikes strikes strikes, Rayner tax affairs, UK to exit ECHR? Rwanda flights in 6-8wks? SNP mess, Starmer to adopt Rwanda plan rumoured (sorry about all the deaths during the 2yr delay?) King Charles to return to duties

A very basic comparison that does not include divi yield, imo those still suggesting lloy is 'the worst share ever' or a 'dire share' should maybe consider premium bonds?
