It appears most banks are up 5% today.

Do we really need the constant copying and pasting of news articles on here Moderators ?

This is supposed to be a discussion forum relating to Lloyds Bank not a news ticker. We are more than capable of turning our TV set on if we wish to.

“ Last time I checked gateboy13 there was still freedom of expression in this country”

I never said there wasn’t. I merely asked you a valid question given your username.

If you’re a dividend chaser, what are you doing on this BB ? There is no dividend currently.

“ amazing how they have got it right”

Amazing in a current bear market. How incredibly insightful......

As we previously ascertained, you don’t know what price they borrowed the stock at. You’re just guessing that they have made anything at all.

So you don’t actually know then. You’re just guessing as I thought.

“ these guys have a track record of getting it right”

How much did they make shorting ASOS ?

“ Marshall wace short reduced 0.02 total short 0.59% they are winning so far”

How do you come to that conclusion ? Are you privy to what price they borrowed the stock at, what price they sold it into the market at and what price they bought 0.02% back at ? Or are you just guessing ? I’m curious how you know......

Wouldn’t call 0.51% a huge position.

There are some much bigger shorts out there.....

Here’s hoping Wace get caught out.

“ Early days gate boy early days,the pain is yet to come.”

I was referring to the apocalyptic predictions made on Friday about what was going to happen today. Seems they were wrong......

Doesn’t look like that’s going to happen today.

Exactly PATTS.

The only previous occasion recently I can remember was on one other day and it climbed back above 26p by the close.

Think Dividendchaser is rather misusing the term Groundhog Day.

Isn’t the meaning of Groundhog Day something that is continually repeated ?

He’ll have read it TFE. He slipped up this afternoon replying to one of mine before the mod dispatched my post to Room 101.

Another day Lloyds finished above 26p then blowing away the predictions. Who’d have thought it ?

“ Ramping stock is not clever not matter how one dresses it up”

The same applies to de-ramping stock does it not ?

*anyone not anyway

Hi Patrao1,

“ G13B - morning first of all - I could actually live OK with your prediction of ranging between 26-28p”

I’m not predicting anything fella. Seen enough people on here say the same thing on a daily basis and get it wrong continually. I was merely poking fun at someone else who was saying it could go down through 26p or up through 28p. He’d forgotten to say it could stay in the 26-28p range, then he would have backed all the horses in the race....

If anyway actually knew what was going to happen to the share price, they wouldn’t be wasting their time on here.

“ Very helpful to know that it could go up or down. I will bare this in mind.”

Indeed LTI lol. Very insightful wasn’t it ? It could go up through 28p or down through 26p. Nothing like covering all your options lol.

Alternatively it could stay in the 26-28p range which it has done for a while now.

You may well be right Wids and probably are. Lots of bad news still to come until they find a vaccine. Just get weary of the same pointless and incorrect daily predictions by the same posters.

Looks like the sub 26p (or sub 25 pennies even) brigade are not going to get their way again at the close. Still, if they keep hopelessly predicting the same every single day, they might get to be right on one occasion......

Rosewall,

Why don’t you buy an 8 bedroom mansion then if property is so cheap where you live ? That way you’ll get to benefit from the stamp duty holiday the “Marxist Conservatives” are offering currently.

BTW, if the Tories are Marxist, what is your collective name for Corbyn, McDonnell, Abbott and Long-Bailey ?
