Usual Saturday update,
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 @ 564 = 1162
Lloy 1905 @ 67.1 = 1278
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 @ 386 = 1293
Lloy 1553 @ 67.1 = 1042
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 @ 554 = 1833
Lloy 1392 @ 67.1 = 934
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
This weeks observation - BP. getting close to catching up with Lloy, RBS jump this week on fine news, Lloy continues steady recovery following ex divi
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.
