"Fusion power will mark the end of fossil fuel usage"
i hope so and I think enormous progress has been made but we aren't quite there yet. Also I understood it requires an enormous amount of power to start the reaction. Appreciate its not a shared view by some but to have a meaningful impact on emissions coal is best left in the ground if at all possible, despite the reserves we have in UK. Small scale fission reactors might help fill the gap in energy supply. Would be good for RR and their SMR hopes.

j46 citing Daily Mail article, comments " Confirmation that rate rises are only temporary"

I cannot see any inference this article makes that interest rate rises will be temporary. I wonder how you reached this conclusion. The article states that "Gerald Lyons, a former adviser to the Prime Minister accused Bailey of having a 'complacent attitude' towards inflation" and Sentance backs up the story saying he doesn't have very good communication skills, not like Mervyn did. It goes on to make links between QE policy and high house prices fuelled by cheap borrowing. After pressing on Baileys requests not to ask for too much of a wage rise, it drags out a former Deputy Governor to confirm high inflation will hit hardest on poorer households. It ends with an eye on year end rates increasing to 1.5% but also quotes Capital Economics forecasting a shallower trend to 1.25% by year end, but continuing to rise in 2023.
Please could you explain where it confirms rate increases will only be temporary.
I assume you can, as you posted it with the kind of certainty a teacher would deliver to their class of learners. Is your comment an accurate summary or are you reading into it the things you want to hear?

Total fantasist.
Lloyds board plumbs new depths.

"gone long @51.45p"
Recently you said about the SP going back to the forties? How long are you holding at 51.45p?

Falk
"SP could go in the orbit at any moment"
LLoyds SP hopes of orbit reminds me of Elon Musks comment on the less than successful test flight for SN11
"At least the crater is in the right place"

"52.45p will do for Friday". "67Sam, Are you watching ?"
Yes! I am watching. When will the 2% clawback to 52.5 occur before 4.30pm then Falk?

You'[ve / we've got zero chance of that Falky

"For long termer this is perhaps one of the best FTSE100 stock to invest and keep holding for at least 8-12months that is where the true value be realised."
I agree and am holding but anticipate a longer time frame is needed, maybe 5 years to see significant gain.
"It will not surprise me at all if we end up upper 90p this year" .
I would be pleased but truly amazed to see 90p by year end. I cant immediately see what's going to make this rocket to 60p and over this year, even with some buyback thrown in. What is that that makes you forecast a 75% rise in SP in the next 10 or 11 months?

"another gem from today's effort"
Agree it reads like a contradiction. Maybe if people spend more while having less to spend it means their savings reduce, or disappear completely. And then they take out more credit and try and ride it out, with fingers crossed.

"City analysts think Lloyds’ annual earnings will drop 23% in 2022"
I thought that headline was about write backs from bad debt provision artificially inflating last years profits. So this might make the following years profits look smaller. But I think thats missing the point , so I continue to hold.

does this one worry you more or less?

"Never mind, I'm off now to meet some friends".
Is there some 'flouncing out' going on today?
So you have skills in flouncing and name calling.
What else do you have in your repertoire slownsteady?

Good to see everyone on this forum making an effort to get along.

"If it goes up now I will be OK nearly £1000 a penny".
good luck, the same is true if it goes down as well.

50,000 pounds would have bought you that many shares.
seems quite a big trade to be mixing up shares and pounds

"31st Dec-4th Jan 22 - 51.3p closed today 27-1-22"
Good eyes on the gaps.
Not sure I could ever interpret gaps for any trading advantage, as so far Ive added and never sold lloyds.
But it sounds like good news.
