Why millions?
Little and often a few hundred here and there soon adds up if you reinvest it.
It is what it is, the share is 103 because that's what it's worth right now. If you want it to be worth 130 buy a few millions quids worth and maybe you'll drive the price up but when you aren't prepared to throw money into it at up to 130 then you are part of why it's worth 103 surely? (Not having a dig just saying)
Given where NWG is and it's performance over the past few years it seems like the government having a controlling interest really isn't helping! Sell off some more, hand control back to the bank and watch the SP rise. Sell out when it's risen at a profit, on top of all the loan repayments/dividends along the way. When the bailouts happened Europe told us what we had to do, the banks (especially Lloyds and RBS) got totally shafted and now we're not even a member of their rediculous club! The one that assures a level playing field but always in favour of mainly German and French companies! Their ridiculous requirements crippled two banks with massive potential for years and for what? I'd have told them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine. They've proven they know nothing about business when all that they had to do was forward order some vaccine!
OK so i'm going to try a new strategy for deciding if i should buy FRES the day before they report. I'm going to get their previous report (which usually has the words up and down dotted through it multiple times), print it out and stick it to a wall. Then i'm going to put on a blindfold, spin round several times and throw a dart. IF the dart hits the report i'll look at whether it lands closest to an up or a down and base buying on that. It's gotta work better than assuming a good report will help the price climb! lmao
Does anyone own a business and trade their company's money?
Share centre were recently acquired by ii and my account holding fee has risen from £25 per quarter to £40 PER MONTH (dealing fees on top). Nothing short of profiteering as far as i am concerned and i'm looking to move my holdings to another platform. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

"Intention to accrue dividends and resume progressive and sustainable ordinary dividend policy"
We had a sustainable dividend policy. Through covid i have been hammered by HMRC on one side and by The bank of England on the other. Not on the bread line but i'm getting fed up of hearing about other people's money woes while it's my hard earned at risk and supporting them.
If i took out a loan from Lloyds would i be allowed to write this in the box asking how I intend to pay it back?
If it's not good enough for them why should it be good enough for me? Is there still a case for investing in this "excellent long term dividend payer" when awarding them is beyond it's control? Considering selling up and investing in Bricks and mortar rather than sit here AGAIN waiting for dividends to build. Nice when they do but it took a decade last time and still no guarantee that was was owed will be awarded at any future point.
Antonio only gets £3.4m for the year. My dividend might just cover 10% of my new patio. After HMRC have taken their usual slice!
Is this the fall before the fall or coukd the results put £13+ within reach again?
I'd make a bucket load of money out of this one if
a) i knew what i was doing
and
b) sold out and waited every day i thought, that was a great day!
lol
No i didn't miss Q3 but as we saw with yr end 19, Lloyds paying a dividend doesn't seem to be up to Lloyds anymore. The cancellations we saw early 2020 could always be repeated, a promise isn't a promise any more.
I'm in but "better to be out wishing you were in than jn wishing you were out"
Surely q2 has to be a stonker? Question is, do you hold out for £15-20 or move on and find other opportunities?
