Hi zorb, nothing yet as I was expecting a to trading, HL giving upon them now
would love to see the BOD or AH taking a stance on this one,
rather than keep issuing new shares for the staff incentive plan, they should actually buy back shares off the market to give to staff. goes against the grain to all lth to say Lloyds is buying back its shares to write them off only then to list an additional 700million or so to use for their staff incentive schemes.
what are peoples views about Glencore's shares held in treasury as part of the buyback programme,
should these be removed from the register and thus giving an immediate 8 to 10% increase in the share price.
or left to sell when the share price is higher allowing the company to seek out future takeovers
why does Bovis not announce a share buy back versus special dividends.
surely reducing the number of shares in issues allows for better returns for the company and it shareholders.
losing 28% off its share price in 7 weeks is worrying.

Sent an email asking why the delay in paying dividend and surprise was in my account at 4.35 too late to trade
To help with the buy backs lloyds should stop the scrip dividend process as they just keep issuing new shares rather than buying the ones of the market to use as scrip

60% of current cobalt comes from DRC go Glen
we will wait and see how much cobalt they get out of drc.
would like to see the shares that are being bought back withdrawn from circulation and not held in treasury.
need to reduce the numbers of shares in circulation to prove ivan is looking after shareholders
About 300 companies worldwide are now on the hunt for cobalt deposits, CRU estimates.
Mining giants such as Glencore are also boosting production in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where most of the world's cobalt is found.
In the US, limited cobalt production started in 2014 for the first time in about four decades.
Gold once lured prospectors to the American west - but now it's cobalt that is sparking a rush.
Cobalt mining has not happened at any sort of scale in the United States for decades.
But a handful of mining companies are now staking claims at sites in Idaho, Montana and Alaska in search of the silvery blue mineral.
They are striking examples of the growing interest in cobalt - a key component in the lithium-ion batteries that power electronic devices and electric cars.
In the past, cobalt supply depended on the markets for copper and nickel, more valuable metals that are typically extracted alongside cobalt.
But with cobalt prices on the up and consumption projected to rise by between 8% to 10% a year, its status as a by-product has started to change, says George Heppel, senior analyst at research firm CRU Group in London.
need to up date your figures Lloyds 62.12 glencore 3.87.
have been slowly day trading glen, down a penny or two buy and then sell when up a penny or two
slowly slowly catchy monkey
