😂 Are you still going Troublesome ? Can I ask you a question if that’s ok ? What do you do for a living that gives you so much time to post on this Lloyds BB all day ? STP/DCB doesn’t so I gave up with him. Perhaps your response will be more revealing……

Good work Rogue. Always like hearing about success stories where good profits are banked. I reluctantly pulled £268k out of my SIPP today. Most of the money was held on the overnight money market so not selling equities. I’m sure I am not alone doing the same but others will be withdrawing their 25% tax free amount from stocks and this will affect the market including Lloyd’s holdings. Rachel Reeves and Torsten Bell have had the chance to dispel rumours that the budget will not raid non-public sector pensions again. They have refused to do so I’m out. Last year certain platforms allowed you to change your mind after the budget but not this year. I will be putting it into a low interest paying gilt so I don’t cross this government’s threshold for paying tax on interest and hold it to maturity with no CGT. Hope you haven’t looked back TFE, we earned and saved this money for ourselves not others.

Begs the question why you’ve posted almost 18,000 times then. Off out for a pub lunch. You’ll have to find someone else to talk to. I’m sure Lloyds SP won’t have changed much by my return.

Not that’s any of your business Troublesome, but I was talking to 88 not you. He has spent a lot of time in the US and knows the stocks I’m talking about. He’s right, you must be extremely jealous making derogatory comments in a conversation between two people that doesn’t concern you. I sold 3/8ths of my Lloyds holding a while back 88 as I got tired waiting for them to get a proper valuation. Glad I kept the rest in view of the current price.

Perhaps you’ll explain why the MPC has been cutting rates when inflation has been going up Troublesome ? All members of the MPC will have a political leaning. Mark Carney certainly did as it turned out. My suspicion is that rates have been cut due to flat GDP and rising unemployment and inflation has been ignored for over a year now. It was supposed to be their primary mandate.

*good* to lock in

Nice one fella. Your patience has been rewarded.

I’m getting tempted to shave a few Lloyds and halve my US holdings in Nvidia, AMD, Sofi, Netflix and Uber as they have gone up by multiples in the last 2 years. The party can’t go on for ever and it’s always to lock in a profit and leave a bit for the next man.

I had worked that out fleccy 😉 In all his exuberant excitement this morning, he couldn’t even spell the one word in this title thread correctly.

As opposed to the Morning Star that you probably read Paddy ? Keep on topic.

What have train stabbings got to do with Lloyds Bank ?

Does anyone know what bresched means ?

You’ve probably confused him now Darth.

I wouldn’t look at the price until 08.30am because not all the market makers are open. Dealing pre-market opening is very precarious.

“Electric vehicle (EV) drivers will be hit with a new pay-per-mile tax in the Budget, The Telegraph can reveal.

Under current plans, to be announced by the Chancellor on Nov 26, drivers of electric cars will be charged 3p per mile on top of other road taxes.

The scheme, set to kick in from 2028 after a consultation, will mean the average driver faces paying an extra £250 a year.

The Treasury will make the move amid falling fuel duty revenue as people move from petrol to electric cars. Up to six million people are set to be driving EVs by the time the tax comes in.”

I wonder how this will damage Lloyds on car loans particularly after the damaging car finance scandal.

“Dorfan has shown that it’s posiible to stick to the issue with a contrarian view without the need for personal insult.”

Stick to Lloyds and stop looking for bites with others Troublesome.

Where have you been personally insulted on this thread Troublesome ? I called it abuse but personal insult will do.

Care to elaborate on where there has been abuse on this thread Troublesome because I can’t see any. Seems you're very sensitive and don’t like having your opinions challenged.

Troublesome,

If you’re going to talk rubbish about Lloyds and put a positive spin on what was an unmitigated disaster yesterday morning, people are going to call you out. Lloyds will be affected by decreasing disposable incomes, stagflation, a stagnant housing market and rising unemployment.

Spot on LTI.

Totally agree 88. We know who the shareholders are on here and who the Walter Mitty’s are. Hope you’re well fella.
