Usual Saturday update - 1 day late, I started this fantasy portfolio in 2016 to challenge various posters perception that Lloy is 'the worst share ever' or a 'dog of a 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 @ 586 = 1207 Lloy 1905 @ 66.3 = 1263 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 @ 380 = 1273 Lloy 1553 @ 66.3 = 1030 In May 2017 Pugsy suggested I add Ocado - On 22-5-17 - 1000 quid bought 331 Ocdo shares & 1392 Lloy shares Today's value Ocdo 331 @ 800 = 2648 Lloy 1392 @ 66.3 = 923 In July 2017 Nucky suggested I add RBS - On 12-7-17 1000 quid bought 384 RBS & 1512 Lloy Today's value RBS 384 @ 290 = 1114 Lloy 1512 @ 66.3 = 1002 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 @ 208 = 996 Lloy 1504 @ 66.3 = 997 This weeks observation - BP. closer to catching up with Lloy, Barc & Lloy neck & neck, well done Ocdo on deal news Overall conclusion - A very basic comparison that does no include divi yield, IMO anyone still suggesting Lloy is 'the worst share ever' or a 'dog of a share' seriously need to examine their concept of investing. #Buyback those dips but Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

Just to be clear James - at no time did I say you were a fool * A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool. ... * Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor. ... * A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer. #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

Facts are there if people want to see them James - yet some fools still cling to out dated Lloy bashing #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

From Saturdays update of my fantasy portfolio - In July 2017 Nucky suggested I add RBS - On 12-7-17 1000 quid bought 384 RBS & 1512 Lloy Today's value RBS 384 @ 294 = 1129 Lloy 1512 @ 67.1 = 1014 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 @ 214 = 1025 Lloy 1504 @ 67.1= 1009 conclusion - A very basic comparison that does no include divi yield, IMO any fool still under the illusion the other banks are doing substantially better than Lloy seriously need to examine their concept of investing. #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1

They (TSB) were playing fast and loose with the customers and also with their reputation, which has been so damaged by it now https://www.ft.com/content/7159ae84-5798-11e8-b8b2-d6ceb45fa9d0 #Buyback those dips A1

TSB rejected help from Lloyds at start of IT meltdown TSB turned down an offer of help from its former owner, Lloyds Banking Group, in the early stages of an IT meltdown that left up to 1.9 million online customers unable to access their accounts. Lloyds contacted TSB on the morning of 23 April, according to a report in the Financial Times, after it became apparent that a transfer of accounts and customer information to a new IT system had gone badly wrong. However, TSB declined the offer, despite the fact its customer information was being transferred from a Lloyds system to one designed by its current owner, the Spanish bank Sabadell. TSB was spun out of Lloyds in 2013 but had continued to pay for the use of its IT systems. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2018/may/15/tsb-lloyds-it-meltdown-bank-accounts #Shhh, don't tell the algo's A1
