I have to agree unfortunately. Many lth here will be tremendously frustrated at having endured so much over the last decade and we were starting to look like having a stable and sustainable div. Covid changed this in a black swan event. The best we can hope for now is a coordinated banking industry support for businesses as best they can but Grace yourself for up to 20% failure of businesses currently getting big support. Hopefully LBG can increase revenue from further inroads into pension and insurance business but time will tell. Banking is having to adapt in the same way we all are and they in the same position of uncertainty as we all are in terms of where the world is headed over coming years.

Stuart. This is a very genuine question so please do not read as being antagonistic. What macroeconomic assumptions are you making when you forecast an SP of 60p in the next year or so?

Good morning Falkland. Having been invested here for nearly 40 years I can not recall a more uncertain landscape.
I am sure there are very clever people out there who think they know what the future holds. I do not have those powers of forsight. I have yet to see any compelling arguments that provide that clarity. Happy to learn as I have done throughout my investor journey however.

Hull. My only advice would be not to look at this or any BB for advice. Hmmm will you take mind then? Most have entrenched views and stick to one side of the other. Lloyds is a well run ship but has not always been. They were on a logical course of digitilisation, meeting Customer needs and looking for growth opportunity in areas such as pension provision. Covid has brought unprecedented challenges when world economies were already heading into down then and throw in spats between America and China and let us not forget brexit.
Trying to second guess where Lloyds will be in 2 years is near impossible. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

Olly. Suspect every holder can point to when they could have brought cheaper. I will stick my neck out though and state with 100% certainty in my mind that many will purchase at a higher price than you just paid over the coming weeks.

With POG likely to test $1800 over the coming days, July could be the perfect time to announce funding is in place and this show is going to get off the ground in physical terms. Not much longer to wait now!

The more I allow my mind to wonder on the subject, the more likely a farm in announcement with NC on SW in the next month or so is the conclusion I am coming to. I would be very happy if that was the case and I wouldn't be greedy on the deal. Just a fair one please. Whatever news GH brings I am sure I will be happy.

And many think world economics is taking us towards a higher POG.....potentially 2k by year end. Perfect time to reopen the mines.

2 excellent podcasts. Must listens for any investor. Thanks for sharing Napthman

Hopefully not a spike WF but I agree the news will be welcomed by all. Now is the time for our resolves to be tested having already benefited from so much upside. I am holding firm though ... Realistic expectations rising and timelines reducing. Oh and POG rising. This stock just puts a smile on my face.

Positive statement. One way or another this is going to production!

That did make me smile enrico.

I read static as stable and a clear baseline over the last 2 weeks. Look at the progress this year so far. In evolutionary terms we have gone from caveman to the nuclear age in the last 18 months of so. I expect solid ratchets forward now with each piece of news. Who knows what the world will bring this autumn and winter. Enjoy these interludes and continue to keep safe.

Same buyer....got to get the post count up here some how....

Sa.e buyer building up in round numbers...?

Someone can see the potential here over the last few days. Still small beer though as to what this will look like in the next 4 to 6 weeks.

My preference is for the exact type of movement we are now seeing. A solid ratchet up as news approaches with no substantial retraces. Inspires confidence for new investors. All good here imo. In fact all great here imo.

Can I ask why the secrecy? Would it expose a leak?

Business is business and any deal will obviously be to the benefit of both parties. I have discounted a hostile takeover for reasons discussed many times here. Just look at the symbiotic nature of GGP and NC relationship. That would take some beating by any 3rd party intervention.

Agreed. We need some exposure such as a proactive investor interview when the news hits to widen the knowledge of our existence. As soon as I have enough shares that is....
