Usual weekend update
I started this fantasy portfolio in 2016 to challenge various poster's perception that Lloy is 'the worst share ever', 'better else where' or a 'dire share',
On the 8th Oct 2016 I invited WL/Newchurch to choose an alternative ftse 100 company, so I could run a comparison
On 8th Oct 2016 - 1000 quid bought 206 BP. shares & 1905 Lloy shares
Today's value
BP. 206 @ 382 = 787
Lloy 1905 @ 51.8 = 987
In April 2017 Invest4life suggested I add Glencore -
On 22-4-17 - 1000 quid bought 335 Glen shares & 1553 Lloy shares
Today's value
Glen 335 @ 410 = 1374
Lloy 1553 @ 51.8 = 804
In July 2017 Nucky suggested I add RBS/Natwest -
On 12-7-17 1000 quid bought 384 Nwg & 1512 Lloy
Today's value
NWG 384 @ 240 = 922
Lloy 1512 @ 51.8 = 783
In July 2017 Utrickytrees asked that I add BARC -
On 30-7-17 1000 quid bought 479 Barc & 1504 Lloy
Today's value
Barc 479 @ 199 = 953
Lloy 1504 @ 51.8 = 799
In Sept 2018 Motley Fool recommended Diageo over Lloyds
On 9-9-18 1000 quid bought 37.3 DGE & 1704 Lloy
DGE 37.3 @ 3758 = £1402
Lloy 1704 @ 51.8 = £882
In April 2020 Theosus asked that I add Circassia -
On 14-4-20 £1000 bought 3891 CIR & 3058 Lloy
CIR 3891 @ 41.6 = £1619
Lloy 3058 @ 51.8 = £1584
In April 2020 TheBoard asked that I add RollsRoyce -
On 25-4-20 £1000 bought 322 RR. & 3367 Lloy
Today's value
RR. post 10for3RI 1073 @ 120 = £1288
Lloy 3367 @ 51.8 = £1744
This week's observation - mixed wk for fantasy stocks, banks slip, Covid Omicron Infections continue to drop - hospital cases & deaths remain low-ish, booster jabs take-up slows, Most covid restrictions to end next week, Boris witch-hunt continues, Djokovic deported, Russian/Ukraine, Meatloaf, Lloy continues to withhold shareholder funds,
A very basic comparison that does not include divi yield, IMO those still suggesting Lloy is 'the worst share ever' or a 'dire share' seriously need to examine their concept of investing.
Real deal
30-3-20 I bought 15,000 Lloy @ 33.606 = £5040
Current value -
Lloy 15000 @ 51.8 = £7770 = +54% over ~21 months
