If you think the bank will be affected by just chinese communities think again this is a contagent that will affect every aspect of the banks trading platform especially the retail sector as they are influenced strongly by stayaway footfall.

Bazzer26 do you want to bet your life on that ,I doubt it .

Leas as brought up a very relevant and timely point, there is far too much debate about politics and government influence on this stock from a few individuals that turn the board into a jousting arena for their enjoyment .There are people out there who are looking for sanguid and sensible advice on investing for income rather than immediate profit and unlike myself who as been trading on the stock market for 40 years gaining confidence and foresight on what risk to take are hesitant in putting their savings or an inheritance into the onknown.
We all started somewhere in this game, so give the newbies a fair start and welcome their input into this stock as it benefits us all if more people invest.

You need to do some research before you make non sensical statements all the things and products you mentioned are governed by EU tariffs and legistlastion you will find .
If you look closely at the product ID plate it will carry a C E mark that is the EU conformity certificate mark and shows it as been tested to EU standards on electrical and machinary safety standards without that it is not allowed into the EU.

If the money as been paid out it is not in the bank consequently it cannot be a valuation going forward and the fact we are not going to pay it out again makes no difference to forward valuations only whats showing on the bottom line at the end of the year.

I started buying Lloyds when the crash was levelled out and the stock could move 5% daily up and down made some decent weekly returns over several years(capital gains territory) to make up for no divi but when the divi started again those movements dropped off and it then became a hold for divi share.Every stock as its blue and red line and the in between is knowing when to trade I have made a few k over the last few months on a modest amount without hitting my core holding ,it keeps you aware of whats going on and helps to stop complacency creeping in .
All those who sit and watch the stock going up and down are missing the oppurtunity to make extra cash and as long as you keep within the ex divi dates on trades it will not cost you your divi. use extraordinary events like the recent election and the crisis in the middle east to buy low and sell high. Remember what Buffett said when the feared are selling the brave should be buying, so far it as worked for me.

I cannot see your problem you have either bought too high on a punt of making a quick profit are have been looking at other stocks that have risen in share price.
This is a bank stock and depends on the economy to perform beyond fundamentals ,in that respect the dividend is not far off 6% so if you don't beleave thats a decent return keep your money under the mattress it will shrink quicker that way.

Well done with your correct guess broadland and P C is a deserving charity.Paid in full.

You have all the info you need from recent events and on that make a decision that you feel is the right one for you .
I have been making short term gains on the events in october when the share went from 50 to 60 and on election week those amassed around 6k on a outlay of 40k so you can make quick returns on this share.
its no good in the bank sorry for the unintended Pun.

Reckon on 81p for 2020

Cal I concur with everything you say and having lived in Scotland for 16 years through the last ref I know how devisive this process is .The thin on the ground information the SNP distributes on the public purse and this misnomer that the revenues from north sea oil will oil the economy are as prelevant now as they were then.The SNP dogma of portraying the Westminster government as some overseas colonial power policy maker that opresses the colonies is an outdated and spiteful method of raising natioalism without putting any reasonable debate forward .the use of the words imprisonment and cupboard in recent statements reinforce my view that if bonnie Prince Charlie was still about Nicola would be asking for a call to arms and we all know were that led in Ireland,dangerous times are ahead.

Starmer still does'nt get it.
After the bloody nose his party got in the election this idiot is still bleating about lost jobs and the negative effect Boris 's twelve month amendment will have.
Why we voted to get past his nonsense as still not dawned on the clown.

Yes Livestock I was advocating a 50p buy in at that time and shortly afterwards thats were it landed and the markets have fallen this morning as I predicted so 2 nil I think.

Hi Guys
Don't get carried away with todays rise and expect it to keep running The footsie is up 200 points today and that is reflected in the blue chips but it will not go on into the future, the levelling out will come midweek and then fall away I expect Lloyds to finish around the mid 60s at close of trading for this term as I predicted in my mearkat forecast.

Cannot agree more Cal She showed her true colours when she called on the opposition to unite in blocking the conservatives from office because she knows they won't give her a referendum. the trouble was that strategy was to devide Scotland from the Union so she did'nt give a toss about the oppositions ideals just wanted her demented way as she always will .
Its time the Scots saw her for what she is a very dangerous extremist who does not accept democracy.

That is not the way to make money,sell on big movements and move back in again when they drift lower I have made 6K on the 14% rise from 50 p to 60p earlier this year and the jump today all for a stake of 25k not touched my main portfolio of Lloy .
If you are in the game for divi fair enough but the smart money is in the movements and I predicted this earlier in the week.
Well done all those who took the risk.

Managed to get straight in with investdirect and sold at 66.92 bought earlier this week at circa 60 so xmas paid for grat fun when politics makes you money pays for the hours of listening to the twaddle to get a winning picture.

said it tuesday 68-70p lovely jubbly well done Boris

There are a lot of shares in instituional ownership, pension funds insurance offsets equity funds and private ownership the spread is very small so a penny movement can make a nice profit if you have millions to trade,and the managers of funds have to make profits so they are constantly trading this stock.

share price on friday 68-70p
