"Labour again having a very positive impact on the economy."

Absolute balderdash from you again! They have naff all to do with inflation and interest rates coming down!

Goldman Sachs, Bank of America (BofA) and Citigroup all surpassed analysts’ estimates for their third-quarter earnings on Tuesday thanks to strength in their investment banks

The Wall Street giants have benefited from a pickup in dealmaking activity that bankers are hoping is the beginning of a sustained rebound following a torrid 2023.

Top US lenders are leaning more on their investment banking arms to bolster profitability as they grapple with falling interest rates.

STP........this has got nothing at all to do with what you posted previously "TWICE". This is all about what you posted today at 11:32........"What appears to elude you is that a majority of those that voted in the election voted Labour"

Which my post, and incidentally Sam67 as well, was pointing out to you that was rubbish, that the majority of people who voted at the election did not vote for Labour.

You're just digging yourself deeper into a hole with your lies you fool!

(Sharecast News) - Jefferies has upgraded its recommendation for NatWest from 'underperform' to 'buy', but still rates Lloyds as its preferred stock in the UK banking sector.

In a research note on UK-listed domestic banks on Tuesday, Jefferies turned more positive on NatWest, reiterated 'buy' calls on Lloyds, Barclays and OSB, but downgraded Paragon Banking from 'buy' to 'hold'.

As for its preferred pick Lloyds, Jefferies said "2025 could be its year". The broker estimates that the mis-selling of car finance redress will be capped at £1bn, while TNAV will "accelerate hard given the largest CFH reserve unwind in the sector". Moreover, "the hedge should ignite in 2026", the broker added.

"What appears to elude you is that a majority of those that voted in the election voted Labour, and I am part of that majority."

No, incorrect. A majority of those that voted did not vote Labour. 33.7% of those that voted voted for Labour. 66.3% of those that voted did not vote Labour.

FWIW

Jefferies raises Lloyds price target to 76 (59) pence - 'buy'

"in fact I are part of the majority who voted in Labour. "

Labour were not voted in by the majority, only 30% of those who cast their vote voted for Labour.

"What scenario could possibly mean they didn't last the term? "

None, with the size of majority they have in the House of Commons they would easily brush off any vote of no confidence.

Your best mate is a landlord.
