How many shareholders were on the register when Halifax was over 1,100p per share?
D ( for Dunce)
This is not your first ID is it. People are not in your category.

Did you keep previous user name/s ?
If not ,it is alarming that there is at least one more Dunce
D (for Dunce)
You must be one of the very few in this world that believe having a consolidation would get rid of shareholders from the register.
Maybe you think that there are hundreds of thousands of shareholders with less than 10 shares.
D (for dunce)
Maybe you think that millions won't be able to afford to buy a share for £6, but easily afford 10 shares at 60p.
D (for Dunce)
Cutting the number of shares, does not cut the number of shareholders.
Definitely one for the remedial class.

''1 in 5 might not be the worst of ideas??''
I am not saying that there is a reason for a consolidation not to be made,
but I am saying It makes no difference and serves no purpose apart from,I repeat, the BOD wanting a 'heavier' looking share price.
I would prefer the share price to get back to 3 figures by means of a continuing good company performance and market recognition of that.
Damper,
What does it matter if there are 70bn shares @ 60p or 35bn shares @ 120p ? Who cares ? The market cap is still the same.

''Lloy 70,052m''
Been about the same for over a decade,so what.
Makes absolutely NO difference if 100,000 shares are held with 10 times less shares in issue instead of a million shares currently.
Cannot believe there are so many idiots in this world.
It is up to the BOD if they wish the share price to look a bit 'heavier', end of.
Correct lti but a consolidation at 1 in 5 might not be the worst of ideas??
D (for Dunce)
''penny shares ''
Lloyds bank is not a penny share
The number of shares currently in issue is about an average that has been
sustained for the last decade.
Hopefully the BOD will push on with large amounts of money put towards buybacks.
Cuckoo.....
“ little Englanders will be happy at their isolation, but will it be terminal.
No trades, no deals no jobs.”
Begs the question why you voted for Brexit then ? You do like riding both horses in the same race Cuckoo.
How’s your spread bet sell in Lloyds going today ? Don’t tell me Jamesroo, you took a long position in Lloyds last night. Am I right ??
''The current number of shares in issue are at a unsustainable level.''
Statement has no connection with common sense.
''I expect a consolidation of at least 10 to 1''
Not a realistic expectation from you on your return
That was the reason James ,low profitability
Pat 2014.
Problem there already Doris talks tough while Saj does the opposite.Communication hey?
Lloyds now pulling out of the F/X market due to low profitability.No reason given as we all know.Could it be that they have higher than expected trade charges coming in a week.That`s one for all to contemplate.
Lloyds always seem to be consolidating they never have a positive plan forward , or indeed any plan.
I cannot read the future but Santander,Bilbao and that whole part of spain looking at the Bay of Biscay could be like a pond compared with gung ho card school of years of negotiating with the EU.
When Doris writes the cheque imo we are dead in the water.
James
Saj appears to softening the tone again yesterday he spoke with UK business leaders at Davos like I say we are poking Donald in the eye on 3 fronts that’s not a good start for trade talks .. Maybe Boris is considering where his bread is buttered.. let’s face it HS2 is going to take some paying ... We can always recycle the dinghys coming over from Calais we will have the biggest fishing fleet in the EU then mine you bit choppy in the Bay of Biscay for them ...
Lloyds stuck in the mud.Really, take the recent sell off profits and run.A week and more and the chickens come home to roost.
The trade Secretary will be unleashing the new trade deals very soon.I jest of course, little Englanders will be happy at their isolation, but will it be terminal.
No trades, no deals no jobs.Simple really.Chancellor to print money,as if that had ever stopped.This isn`t a 50/50 divorce that's for sure , not many will be able to buy the book however. As for the bells they were invented for lepers, something that could not be more accurate.
Interesting times indeed.
LT, that don't take alot of figuring out QT to QE. Fed buying US paper. If they didn't, who would?
Road to ruin
LTI,
Whilst conversing with DCB I mentioned 4% yields , 25% divergence is much when dealing with paper backed Securities .
I take it you're still of the opinion lloy is impervious to Global events .
Jammare, yes assets below ground. As for your post the other day selling gold at a high and selling for what (Fiat) - you don't. You buy assets with Gold. Who'd want paper?
Primary/Secondary assets.
John is a confidence game. The majority of S&P companies are losing more money than back in Dot com bubble days - go figure

You ? and others were predicting financial armageddon if the US 10Y's went over 3%.
They were over 3% in the latter part of 2018.
There was no meltdown
Jammare,
US 10 yrs now yielding 1.74% , only a matter of time till they go back up to 3% . History has a habit of repeating itself . Get your timing right !
