This has been a dog for a while. Mainly self-inflicted, but it seems real momentum is finally building. Once, fingers crossed, it breaches 200, it may well run fairly quickly to 230-250. I had promised myself that I would sell above 200...but...
Thanks Nofear, 330 looks a tad optimistic to me. I could reasonably see 2.50 which would be a slight discount to TNAV and a pe around 8. I don't want to waste another 5 years waiting for Billy bunters postal order to arrive.
Hi Bloomers_Blower
According to the EUROPE RESEARCH ROUNDUP latest broker rating that was published on the 02/April/2024.
Barclays BARC.L : Jefferies raises target price to 330p from 220p
Don't always agree with the Jefferies brokers who in the past have been responsible for crashing UK company stocks, whilst at the same time have also created a major rally on a UK stock. Moreover, sometimes they've over talked a stock that were also sitting as their commercial investment banking advisors. So, always do your own diligence.
Nice divi banked £9669.69
I've had this wretched share 5 years and now finally it's come food. I'm holding 90k shares having averaged down to 1.60 so I'm not exactly doing that well. My planned out is 2.30. When are other ppl thinking of throwing in their chips here?
Morning All, Hope everyone has had a good Easter break. @Nofear - Jan 2022 we were at 2.20 before the conflict in Russia started and cause economic changes which hurt stocks. I am positive and long as I have said a few times, keep posting good numbers, markets are up beat, economic stability etc etc, really is a fundamental long this one, I say that as a someone who obsesses with charts with my day trades. All the best.
I agree wrt short selling: it's often close to market manipulation! No-one in the City will agree (in turn closely linked to the government), it's all part of the big gravy train, which small, mostly uninformed investors are paying for.
This petition is not getting much traction though, very slow uptake. I'm wondering whether it is has been "advertised" enough.
I have signed.
Definitely Sampson
This is the year that Barclays shares will for the first in many year cross over the £2 mark and beyond.
Trimmed 50% what a nice move
I've held these for so many years I cant remember - prob since the 2008 financial crisis. In and out and then the price tanked its taken years for it to get back to these levels.... I remember this being around the 320p price but then i averaged down
Just hope this can finally make us all some profit. Decent dividend however. Scooped around 1300quid.
Hope the blue eagle can finally fly high once more. One of the banking giants should be up there.
Wish I had £50k in here at 98p
Glad i got these at 98p....total gift.
I thought with HL (Who I am with) that the cash becomes available the month following the receipt in the HL Account.
A good day here and the Divi in the bank, not long ago peeps were waiting to get back in in the low 140s
With dividend reinvestment, my guess is the volume should be substantially higher than a normal trading day. UK yahoo shows only 32M shares traded so far, which is about half of the average volume. Similarly, US ADR trading volume is also only 10M. Maybe the reinvestment happens at close? Anyone has an explanation?
My calculation of 15.1B share x 0.053 = ~£0.8B. If 50% applies dividend reinvestment, £400M can buy 210M ordinary shares.
I received mine on HL today, expect that auto reinvestment will be next week.
Me too !
Just received!
Received mine today, held in isa as cash. Not reinvesting at this price
Hello, supposed today is div payment day! So when will see the money to our broker? (HL is mine)
Thanks
Yes total buyback is £1bn
Lloyds has massive exposure to car finance.
Barclays was always been a very small player in the car finance game.
If you are nervous about the car finance issue then go with your gut feelings. The problem is the temptation to look at overall levels of car financing and then assume that all or most of it will give ground for redress. I would guess that a lot of car buyers were not affected as they would have looked around for the best deals. I think the administrative costs for the banks could be very high as the claims management companies will go into overdrive to start with but personally, I would be staggered if this is anything remotely approaching PPI and doubt it will stop Lloyds returning large amounts to shareholders. In the end though, you have to go with your own feelings. Although bank shares have rallied a bit, they are still low by reference to historic norms which may give a little protection as well. I suspect the economic picture will be more important to Lloyds' prospects than the car finance.
