How could you have sold your Lloyds shares this morning at 49.3? High today so far is 48.405.

The early morning SP spike has soon fizzled out!

Can we make an analogy between then and now? If I remember the 2008 financial crisis was caused by the world banks playing pass the parcel with dodgy debts until the only one left standing without a seat to sit on was Lehman Brothers. Then when the sh&t hit the fan it had a domino effect around the world banking system. Since then regulations have been tightened and safeguards put in place to ensure the same could not happen again?

Strange, the DOW has opened 137 pts down but FTSE so far has held its ground and Lloyds has increased?

Shortly after opening the DOW was up around 238pts. As soon as it started falling FTSE and Lloyds followed. Look at the charts for DOW this afternoon and then look at charts for FTSE and Lloyds. As soon as the DOW started declining so did FTSE and Lloyds.

After a good start for LLOYDS and FTSE looks like we end up in red today after FTSE follows DOW down again!

Looks like horsey is pulling up at last fence again!

The last time you posted "FTSE 100 is set to start the day on the front foot" it opened down and was a bad day for Lloyds. Lets hope it goes better today.

DOW Jones opened up slightly down but is now in positive territory so if it continues gaining further today should see Lloyds starting to recover todays fall.

It is refreshing and pleasing to see that when there are differing opinions on this board they can be polite and courteous to each other through their posts.

Well SP could finish closer to 47p if DOW opens down! DOW futures slightly down at moment.

Looks possible SP go sub 48p today?

Slowly slowly catchee monkey!

A share buy back after a 1 for 10 consolidation would be equally ineffective as the shares would cost 10 times more to buy back so only buying back a tenth of the shares of what would be bought back without a consolidation of shares. Same result either way?

SP followed FTSE down today but is reluctant to follow it back up?
