SPMG - Stagecoach - do either of you have info re buyback rules, I'm seeing ref to max 5% of shares in issue in any one year, I'm not seeing any limits re daily volume #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Ok Stagecoach - so the daily buyback volume is restricted by trading laws - darn it lol #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Are we seeing the formation of a 'morning star'? would need to see a rise to around 65 today to complete https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/morningstar.asp #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

Is it time to review the Lloy buyback constraints? give UBS a little more leeway? the current plan certainly doesn't seem to be distorting the market, maybe it's time that it did, flex those muscles ;-) #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Congrats to you Basher, and all who have managed to re invest their divi at this great buy in price, Good to hear Barclays have got their act together. #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

Complaints about loans see sharp rise Concerns have been raised about lenders' treatment of customers with high-cost loans, following a record number of complaints to an ombudsman. The Financial Ombudsman Service said that complaints about borrowing - ranging from store cards to payday loans - had risen by 40% in a year. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44292960

Many thanks to all who took part in today's very respectable 15.7m buyback #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

UK share buybacks accelerate as market lags behind UK share buybacks are close to matching the amount of new equity issued for the first time in five years, but investors cautioned they are not yet at a level to help a stock market that has been a global laggard over the past year. https://www.ft.com/content/df9bad78-2770-11e8-b27e-cc62a39d57a0 #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Buyback pro - by reducing the number of shares in circulation each remaining share is increased in value by a proportional amount, for large holders there may be a tax advantage of SP value v divi income, Buyback con - profit previously paid to shareholders as special divi is now being spent on buybacks #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Wake up James - your rambling lol #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Tut Tut Poolielad - you should know this stuff lol - No special divi this year - instead Lloy are spending �1bn on buybacks Our interim divi will be announced in Aug and likely paid in Sept We expect interim divi to be min. 1p http://www.lloydsbankinggroup.com/investors/shareholder-info/financial-calendar/ #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Wids - for sure the stock market is not the place for weak willed - if you can't stand the heat, leave it in the deposit account, if you don't like what Lloys is doing you have the option to sell up - we don't need any more cry babies lol #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Yes Chancer - every day Lloyds buying back and cancelling millions of share - yet some criticise this course of action even though it has been proven successful by other companies - makes one wonder of their motives - some I think are just simply jealous of long term holders. #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

TheFarEnd - and there we have the reason so many loose money - from the impatient to the patient - the market preys on many aspects of human nature, eg over optimism, impatience, grass is always greener #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

Yes Bob, IMO Jamesroo is a bundle of contradictions, illogical, Immature and argumentative for the sake of it. DYOR #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

James - 2nd request, have you found an example of me stating something as a fact that is untrue? #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

It's ok Bob, I understand, but beware of Jameroo - he doesn't like posters making outrageous unsupported claims lol #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1

James - I would have thought DYOR & IMO etc were a given these day but it seems some are intent on picking an argument over something/anything, I've also added (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) so you don't forget lol #Buyback those dips (Jamesroo - that means UBS, not PI's) A1
