"And Nigel Lawson and his stupid 15% interest rates during his "European Exchange Rate Mechanism" fiasco."
Nigel Lawson was not Chancellor on Black Wednesday, he resigned in October 1989. The UK signed up to the ERM in October 1990, and Norman Lamont was the Chancellor on Black Wednesday.

The RNS was not the half year results of Lloyds Banking Group.......it was the half year results of Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets PLC which is the investment arm of Lloyds Banking Group.

robleo, lets hope the BoE forecast is not accurate. We've had a good 2 weeks for SP climbing from 42.7p to 47.6p but I am keeping my feet firmly on the ground, have seen to many false dawns here! Maybe different this time?

"Didn't the UK fall into recession in 2013 briefly

Looks like everyone watching Wall Street open this afternoon for direction. DOW Futures currently down slightly -12 pts.

If some have not received their dividend yet then DRIP will not be finished.............I also believe some of the brokers DRIP programmes have a delay of a week or two before they make a purchase.

It went down yesterday in US as well but Wall Street still tanked because it had not gone down as much as was hoped.

From what I am seeing on all channels of the MSM is that the Queen HAS earned the respect from ALL corners of the nation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland....England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

"Why is Aviva paying such an high yield?"
Maybe attributable to the share consolidation they did; 76 for 100, so 24% reduction in shares which has increased the dividend per share payout for remaining share holders.
