Scb,
"LLOYDS is currently 30 or 40 percent below pre covid levels so a buyback WOULD boost the shareprice just the same as RBS and BARC have been boosted by their recent buybacks."
Lloy peaked @ 67p in Jan '20 , since then it's dropped 31% . For your benefit :- 67-46 /67 x100 .
The 40% you are mistaken with are LTI's losses from buying in 80's when we were informed Lloy would resume dividends .
As for Barc and RBS , they have an investment branch , which is boosting their profits in this present gambling frenzy . GFR only 4 yrs away .
LTI ,
You were the cleaner @ HSBC , so it's understandable you're not conversant with percentages .
The more folk you share a cake with , the smaller your slice .
One would be inclined to observe , you'd take more than your share .
