SUF, was there a Pandemic, lock-down back then, what was the unemployment figures back then..?
as for traders, they had not problem taking it up, down for months on end and still have no problem trading now. In fact it's probably easier now and will be for some time to come...

..hmmmm, Bush visited Ground Zero,....Ahem.! think you are on to something....

..unemployed in the USofA as of today and all this had happened in the last two weeks. They estimate that 20 million will be the figure soon as the social distance measure go deeper and have been extended until the end of April.....

the UK unemployment figures are not price in the SP yet...food for thought.

Maldim, yes the banks are there to be traded, this is how the stock markets ticks; Barc has been a great swing trade but Wall st is probably the best for wild swings, today had a good day for traders.
sitting on your hands and only using them to attack posters is not very productive and will not reinstate a divi but it sure makes one look like a divy.....

good show, old boy.!

HSBC considering leaving UK base because of this ....

Lots of companies withdrew dividends prior to banks announcement in fact they did it to support the country as they felt in it inappropriate at this time, yet you was not of support of this until Lloy withdrew dividends.

Jonh46,
that explains it, the poster probably got cabin fever...thinking of putting of the posters pals in the sin bin to keep him company, i've called it Utopia only so they don't think bad of me...

china - yes but i'm sure they'll be stock piling oil for the foreseeable future....which will no doubt drive the price down further...

$1 Oil: Saudi Arabia's Attempt To Crush U.S. Shale

unless the President introduces a fee, which he alone can do without consultation the only person able to do so, then Oil Wars will drag on. US have enough surplus, china have made large orders recently.

i'll just filter you Redial as you obviously have issues..

Redial - i actually traded Barc as it had been more volatile, made a decent profit., it's called trading, PI's do this often.
move on...get over it.

its time posters faced facts and stopped attacking others for having an opinion..

SUFFER, LOL, for someone with an average over a quid after years and years of being invested in Lloy, lol

Redail, it is you and fleccy who had gone on and on, i have questioned his reason with my own opinion..
get over it...

fleccy, i started excessive optimism, which you are clearly full off...

Redial, the posts to date have been correct unlike many on here, post from FT articles had even been slated which just shows you how one sided some actually are..
get over it...

FYI fleccy...."loy ,I feel, is heading for a fall that will shock many again….it will take years to get over this but the CEO’s and the likes will be well remunerated for it.

keep spreading your excessive optimism , which by the way is not a healthy condition and can actually do you harm..

fleccy - were have i written the bank will fail? i have actually wrote the opposite in one of my post ., "CEO's will continue to be remunerated"..

we are far from Utopia is my stance...

"Well lets see where we are in 12 months, a lot higher than where we are now i bet."

in recession, mass unemployment and many people struggling in poverty and lloy not paying a divi, but apparently kitchens will be cheap...

assets sitting empty due to the fact that no mortgages are in the window and no government back loans for established business is more likely to lead to recession unlike any other we have witnessed....

This is a perfect storm...

..The historic low was 16pennies. the question is, as i have already stated, if the low is breached will it become R1, 2 or 3....?
