I don’t log it Cookoo, it remains in your posting history on here 😉

If the buy back was completed by the ex Div date (

which it won’t be, but if it was, about £80m will be saved. And you want a special dividend from that ? Spread around the remaining 60bn shares. Really ?

What made you choose that apt username cookoo ?

Lloyds is being held back because it hasn’t had a share consolidation ? I’ve heard it all now 😂

You evidently didn’t do maths at school MPO.

Livestock

“The pandemic wasn't the reason for the drop in SP”

I suggest you look at when the pandemic started and what happened to the share price when it did. We had base rates at or under 0.75% for 13 years. You really are talking absolute gibberish.

Livestock,

I should look up the share price when base rates were 0.1% if I was you.

Rubbish. Read the article livestock. The share price would decrease on ex div day by the value of the special dividend. You still don’t understand that buybacks increase the share price by the percentage of stock removed from the register over the duration of the buyback. Lloyd’s share price has been been subdued for other reasons. Don’t know how many times you need to be told the same thing fella.

Not so many capitals today ? Not so angry ?

I think you need to do some reading livestock because you seem to be obsessed with special dividends.

Here, let me help.

Cookoo,

You wrote this last Thursday morning…….

Sold 22 Feb 2024 08:37

50k worth ,shower of 5hit , kept mothers nest egg as she likes to read how rubbish this is ,if it wasnt for moaning she wouldnt be happy”

Why would anyone take you seriously on here anymore if you lied about it ?

What special dividend would that be for ? There are no exceptional profits nor has there been any significant disposal.

Quite LTI,

Cookoo’s credibility has been shot to bits. I’m surprised he’s not claiming he bought more now last Thursday morning 🤣

Cookoo,

You’re living upto your name. You posted that you had sold at 8.37am last Thursday morning. Now, because the share price has gone the other way, you’re claiming you didn’t. Hilarious stuff. NuckyT sold up and has not posted here again to his credit.

Are you really expecting people here to believe you ?

MOO,

He’s referring to the dividend yield at the current share price (about 6%) plus the buyback (about 6 1/2% at the current share price).

Morning 88 and hardup.

Yes it sounds like frustration and another buyback basher. Chid thought the board were tempted to reduce the final dividend before it was announced and that buybacks keep the capital in the business somehow. I do get a little confused with his thought processes when you sift through the vast volume of material in his posts 😳

Chid, you continue to berate Lloyds. Why are you invested here ?

The dividend was up 15% in the financial year just passed. Far in excess of the percentage of shares removed from the register. I expect the same to happen this financial year too.

I presume you’re not invested in Lloyds then Chid ?

I think you mean cynical. Yes you are.
