And ftse 100 reaching yet another all time high
UK shares still cheap
888
''my prob is they look cheap to me and im not adding anymore atm but am sorely tempted ''
I won't be losing any sleep over my VOD and BT investments, but it is easy to get to a way overweight position on a stock by being ever more tempted.
I will sit back with patience .
Vod going own the correct 'Aviva' like route of getting rid of certain assets. There will soon be a share buyback mopping up cheap shares also at the sam time still maintaining a reasonable dividend.
BT's very large capital expenditure for the FTTP rollout will come to an end at some time.
3i Group surging to yet another all time high at over £29 per share - if only I had kept all of my 188p purchase.
Yet another HSBC buyback about to start - also being conducted by MS
Many other shares in portfolio/market having an excellent day.
Lloyds having a great day , finding levels that are acceptable to more sellers.
LTI o/t...my biggest conundrum atm is my telecom positions Vodaphone avg (73p ish ) & BT (112 ish)....i know from your posts you also have a position in both....obviously we will know a lot more about vodafone on/after the 14th may....and the BT landline case is one of the situations hanging over BT.......my prob is they look cheap to me and im not adding anymore atm but am sorely tempted lol.... gl lti.

nothing wrong with taking an excellent profit on a tranche -
I could have done so myself today , selling my last purchase made from just over 6 months ago at below 40p , but I cannot see a reason to sell at a market cap a lot lower than when I made my 53p sale. It would be a different matter if I thought that Lloyds was not in a good place.
Lloyds has to be one of the cheapest shares on the market an absolute bargain at current levels. Still at pre brexit and pre covid 19 levels with ftse 100 at record highs Lloyds share price should be a lot higher especially with all the buy backs & BOE base rate at current levels. Imo
This bank is turning over £BILLIONS generating big profits and the share price is still under pre covid 19 levels.. It's time for a few days of positive up tick in the share price...
I totally Agree with you LTI... but ive been saying for a long time i would i would buy low forties and below and make my first sale @ 54p...im a bit of a stickler for sticking to my plan...but i was determined to get the final dividend...it wasnt a large sale ....what your saying is very logical.....gl & atb.
Market cap still only £34 Billion
Please enjoy your holiday and leave this board alone for a while. We could all do without seeing your repetitive messages

''was 41p-54p trading range for many months.''
with buybacks in operation, I prefer to look at the market cap.
I last made a sale at 53p in Jan 2022 - that would be equivalent to about 60p per share now, and more than that by the end of the current buyback programme, so I will likely not be selling any below my Jan 2022 equivalent.
.....first sale in a long time....like others on here added plenty in the low 40's.....was 41p-54p trading range for many months......still got a large shareholding and glad i got the final dividend on them all.....happy to be invested here with a good average.....gla..& well done LTH'S..
Lovely Jubbly ,shareprice equates to 56p with dividend and still Lloyds Share price as cheap as chips 10p discounted from pre covid of 64p.
Worse is yet to come 60p 80p 100p IMHO DYOR
On spring holiday in southern Italy :)
Love & Light my Lovelies
Chips
80p end of year
Fakey
Many investors have waited to see - they have seen the share price rise from about 41p to the current 54p in less than 3 months.
You have an endless 'wait and see' -
''The worst is yet to come 34.5p will be seen in 2024'' - rolled over from 2023
...plus the 1.84p div.....
Wait and See...IMHO
Wait and See...IMHO
Well done to those locking in 14-15% + total yearly returns from purchases only 3 months ago.
Goodbye to those looking at the current price level to exit an investment that they consider has been ***** ****** ****** etc etc etc
"need A LOT more sellers for the buyback not to be paying ever higher prices, but it is a win/win either way"
You read it here first folks, it IS a win win !
MD
the laugh may end up being a hysterical one.
54p broken - need A LOT more sellers for the buyback not to be paying ever higher prices, but it is a win/win either way
Endless losses possible on an open 'sell' SB.
Lloyds now close to 54p
He who laugh 😃 Last etccc...imho
Don't worry Big banana. Rayner, Starmer, Miliband and Lammy will be the face of UK plc soon. Once they're elected their supporters can go back to draping themselves in the EU flag and posting pics of union jacks in dog t urds
I mentioned this recently. The financial markets also agree, confidence now returning along with a financially competent government soon. Unfortunately, as usual, will need to fix the mess the current government has created. Hopefully, they will not be back for a while.
