If this board are convinced they are acting in the best interest of the investors, why don't they have the guts to let us decide weather we want our dividend in full and not contributing to the Company bonus scheme .Give us the option of using the buyback allocation as a dividend or a buyback .I for one know were my option would end up.

The 3.5 billion shares that are supposed to have been reduced in circulation over who knows in what time frame represent a bout £1.7 billion in pound notes supposing a share price of around 52p which is the figure that was witheld from the 2019 payout to shareholders after it had been passed by the board for payment.
So give us what you owe us and stop putting it away for your rainy days.

It never ceases to amaze me the amount of comments relating to other bank 's results as if Lloyds will benefit or not from the general dross that circulates at this annual circus.
Lloyds have stated their strategy numerous times in relation to divis and buybacks and regardless as to weather the economy as been beneficial the buybacks and progressive return to shareholders will be the norm .That means jam tomorrow because the directors of this bank are all on a share bonus system that buyback enhances, in that it increases the value of the share many moons away and because the big cheeses have millions of shares a small dividend is still a large payout and they do not want to be seen as greedy.
If anyone who has shares in Lloyds thinks they are going to get a bonus divi payout keep dreaming and watch the advert thats all about dreams.

Putin is besotted with the former soviet bloc that collapsed in 91 he sees the Ukraine as a ******** that the West could shaft Russia and he will try to protect it as if it were is own .This is part of a long drawn out stategy to close the back yard and will take years .He knows we will not go in with anything other than threats so as he builds on these pro Russian enclaves and expands into the Ukraine heartland he achieves his goal .

Part of that huge reserve of capital is our retained divi from 2019 and should be paid to the shareholders on the register at the time jam tomorrow with share buybacks is no good to me.

The fact that these people had a party would make no difference to me or my family or the way we handled ourselves during this dangerous period .I was self isolating before any restrictions officially started because common sense dictates the approach not anyone else or the Government. The individual as a responsibility to take care of themselves thats were the buck stops.

Make it 78p for the bet in 2022

Done that chat is temporarily unavailable.
please post the winning list a gain and put me down for 77p

I have paid up for 2021 but I can't find the list for result .

They have 3p per share in the coffers they did not give us in 2019 so if the BOE takes the shackles off they can give the shareholders on the register at the payout time May 20 the money they owe us without any other dividend that is due.

That long awaited post 60p my guess is 76p boldboy

The whole pretence as been about managing expectations and politicians and employers are all experts in this .
They promise the earth to get you onside in the beginning then portray a scenario of unforseen obstacles that are designed to lower your resistance to changes in the original promises ,then they face you with a take it or leave it outcome that on the face of it is better than nothing but in fact is nothing more than they were ever going to give you.

I read some of the posts on this board and cannot find the reason for some of the actions people take . Statements like "I am in for this amount of money when is it going up" This is a donkey of a share wished I had put my money in Apple".The amounts of money are astounding when people make these kind of statements and leads me to think they are bereft of the basic knowledge required to invest in any kind of stock market share.
Relying on others to give you the right vybes to plunge in with hard earned cash is foolhardy to say the least listening to market makers and the drivel that comes from them is dangerous as they change tack on every new breeze of rumour.
The fundamentals of buying shares are well known and are not based on someone else's opinion .
I have never moved on purchasing any shares in any stock based on opinion and I have done pretty well over the last thirty years of course I am down at the moment on paper and I am like everyone else who is thinking straight sticking with this stock because one of the fundamentals of shares is "They go down as well as up"

This country as been a trading nation since before some parts of the EU were known and will be long after they are unknown again.The ability to diverse now the constraints of an all knowing dictatorial regime are lifted opens pathways to markets and opportunities we were barred from for fifty years.
We will make mistakes and we will take some time to get it right but at least we are doing it and not sitting still and rotting away in the EU.

The TSB is likely to be on the market very soon as the Spanish owner reviews its portfolio This once segment of Lloyds as had nothing but turmoil since Lloyds were forced to dispose of it because we accepted Government funds during the financial crash.
This as shown that Government intervention into commercial banking can have a negative effect when they try to justify their bailouts .
I would imagine that part of the group would have been an asset Lloyds could have made a better job of than the Spanish .

I think that dream as a bit of reality looking at how bank lending quadrupled in the first six months of the pandemic and property prices are soaring .
I think this pandemic was the shot in the arm (not head) that Lloyds needed to release it from the doldrums it as been in for ten years.

The BBC are nothing but doom and gloom merchants if there had been a loss at Lloyds it would have been blazed accross all their media outlets we make some good news with a profit guess what not a mention anywhere.

There will be no dividend on Lloyds until the world is vaccinated so when you see that you will see a dividend.
