“ It was you who hounded our James off this forum”

That’s rubbish John. He claimed he had me on filter and in any case was more than able of standing his ground in debate. He posted on other LSE BBs but has not since May this year. Did I hound him off those too ? I know he’s taken time off here before for health reasons. Don’t try and lay that one on me please.

Darth,

If it’s not press articles attacking Lloyds, it’s trawling up repayments to the Government years ago. If you dislike Lloyds that much, why don’t you go to another BB where you hold some shares instead of pouring your negativity on this one ?

What happened to you ? Did you go overdrawn once with Lloyds and have to pay an account charge or something and now you have an axe to grind ? Just about all your posting history is on Lloyds for some curious reason where you’re not even a shareholder. Strange behaviour if you ask me......

We can always rely on you Harbinger of Doom.

Any other articles in the morning press we haven’t read yet that are gloomy ?

John46,

I have time for your opinions as a rule mate. But asking personal questions like that on an anonymous website I think is not on. I fail to see why LTI would make up such a thing. Just saying fella.....

Must be some hoax if they’ve got just about every country in the world in on it......

Theosus,

845,000 dead people worldwide might just disagree with the lunatic conspiracy theorists if they were able to speak still........

LTI - quite so.

TFE - Spot on

“ Undoubtedly a phycological blow to Lloyds.

Investors will have to wait and see how this story unfolds and if other Hedge Funds and Institutional investors follow suit and short position the share price.”

Have a look through the reams of companies who have have hedge funds taking short positions. Marks and Spencer’s, Tui, Royal Mail, Sainsbury’s to name just a few.

0.51% is no big deal and that position may have been built over a long period of time and they have not added to it in the last fortnight. Can’t really understand the big excitement to be honest.

Yes we’ve read that already earlier in this thread zzzzzzzz

Darth

“ i'm expecting them to increase their position”

Wow. Seeing as they have probably be building for some time below 0.5%, that is an incredibly perceptive prediction. Warren Buffett watch out....

Yeah I noticed it about a week ago LTI. Thought little of then and it hasn’t been added to since. Still let the doom-mongers have their excitement eh ?

“ I recall PI's on here denying this and calling other posters liars for stating that short sellers had Lloy on the books.”

Well there weren’t any disclosable short positions so no one lied and this one has only just gone above 0.5% some 2 weeks ago.

Still, let the usual suspects on here have their little bit of fun trying to talk the price down.

Yup, in larger amounts outside the normal market size, the MM reserves the right to adjust the price.

I still fail to see why MMs would be afraid to accept large sales in Lloyds Lazy-Dave.

The market size in Lloyds is only 30,000 shares.

I’m sure any trade above that size, whether it is a buy or a sale is treated by MMs in the same way depending on the size of it. Lloyds is a heavily traded stock and I very much doubt it has reached the stage where Market-Makers are afraid to deal only one way in it. Just curious as to where Lazy-Dave got that a information.

Lazy-Dave,

Thanks for the reply. Out of curiosity where did you get the information that market-makers won’t accept large sales of Lloyds shares ?

Lazy-Dave,

“Such a relief to be out of this trash”

Begs the question if it’s trash, why you are hanging around to buy it back, does it not ?

Lazy-Dave,

“ The only reason it’s going up is because they won’t accept any large sells”

Where did you get that information from exactly ?

John46,

Hope you are well.

DT just points out the bleeding obvious with a load of links to news articles that any moron can look up for themselves. He brings very little to this forum sadly except his monotonous doomsday scribblings.

I’m afraid declaring himself some kind of visionary during a pandemic that has decimated world economies doesn’t impress me or many others here I would imagine.

Didn’t you check the news first Darth before declaring Buffett won’t buy gold ? Your standards are slipping......
