However more interested in the Fed press conference afterwards re future rate movements etc......gl all.

Over the coming year...and falling prices can damage Putins funding for the war further....something big could be happening in the not too distant future re Ukraine imo...hope it's positive..gla

Ps what bothers me most about pfizer is patents expiring in the coming years...anyways i wont bore you anymore lol ...gl

LTI....yeah saw that may wait for£1 for my next Voda sale...............Hi Gate..as you know i have quite a few US shares..the only one slightly bothering me is i have a larger than normal position in Pfizer when ive been selling/trimming other shares ive been putting it there..got a 23 average ...and pfizer suprisingly for a lot of US shares has around a 7% yield......i been wrong loads of times...if/when there is a correction i really enjoy dip buying as put up on here over the last few years...hope alls well with you too gate .......gl to you both & atb.

Vodafone won the race to 90p very pleasing...still got my next sell level on Lloyds @ 90p....a good morning..off to golf ...gla&atb

Sold some @ 90.023...still got plenty gla & atb

Dorfan ..that was my point...gl.

Hi livestock..you have to laugh sometimes..re RBC..if i remember correctly when we somewhere in the 40's sp jan/ Feb 24 I think they were downgrading lloyds quite heavily...these people get well paid lol..gl & atb

Looking to sell some of my April mid 60's buys.....thought it might have got there this morning.....gla & atb

The US and China have agreed the framework of a potential trade deal that will be discussed when their respective leaders meet later this week, the US trade secretary has said.

Scott Bessent told the BBC's US news partner CBS that this included a "final deal" on TikTok's US operations and a deferral on China's tightened rare earth minerals controls......BBC.......i know this is politics but Trump in Asia and what transpires from various meetings will possibly dominate markets this week (unless something dramatic happens in ukraine) and could/should have an effect on share prices...even Lloyds !

"Politics and economics have a deeply interconnected relationship, where each constantly influences the other through government policies, political stability, and public opinion. Political decisions, such as taxation and regulation, directly shape economic outcomes, while economic conditions, like growth and inflation, heavily influence political events, especially elections"........Political stability: A stable and well-governed country provides a more favorable environment for economic growth, investment, and entrepreneurship than one that is unstable or corrupt...... i worked in the City for 35 years and i can assure you politics in all forms was talked about on a daily basis and influenced financial decisions enormously .......any investor who does not see the correlation between the two is not a serious investor imo.....The banks including Lloyds are greatly influenced by many issues in politics....gla & atb

I see my 90p sell order didn't happen.. was wildly optimistic though...weirdly waiting for 90p on vodafone to sell some ..which one will happen first if at all...gla &atb....ps looking forward to all the exclusive lloyds share posts from the moaners

..gl

Beyond belief imo ...todays trading range ....crazy games on this stock...

Beyond Meat (BYND) has rallied by 1,300% over the last four sessions, igniting a new meme stock trading frenzy....the power of social media....

Very optimistic i know ...but is my next sell level for some of my Lloyds shares......saves getting up early lol.....gla & atb....

Lol @ Troublesome the "Snowflake ".......

Key aspects of the term "Snowflake ".....Overly Sensitive: The core meaning is that a person is too easily upset or offended by things that others say or do.

Emotional Fragility: The term implies that a person is weak, delicate, or vulnerable, similar to a real snowflake.

Perceived Entitlement: The insult can also suggest an inflated sense of uniqueness or entitlement to special treatment............yep sums it up nicely ..gla

Lee R... looking in from afar...the UK looks in a bad/strange place atm ...censorship,division etc.etc...im reading that the grooming gang scandals are being watered down incase the verdicts smear the overwhelming ethnicity of the perpertrators which is looking like 100% asian.....i suppose this post will be removed but i think the way they are trying to shut people down will back fire imo....gla

Singing anti Putin songs etc etc...a lot of them young....thats what i call bravery...much admiration from me...gla.

Am I reading this correctly..that when tax rises are announced in the upcoming budget the necessity to make said rises will be pinned on Farage and brexit ? ?...could easily just be newspaper talk etc..gla.

Seems to be overshadowing the market today.".U.S. stocks gave up their gains for the week Friday after President Trump posted on Truth Social that he may cancel a planned meeting with China's president and that he is considering "a massive increase in tariffs" on Chinese products."

The Nasdaq was down around 2% and the Dow 1% after earlier rising fractionally...............WSJ
