For the patient and long term investers who have seen Neddy fall down snake after snake Finally a ladder for Horsey to climb
With the Ecconomy shot and inflation rearing its ugly head to an uncomfortable level it is clear that further rises will be on the cards until this situation is under control. Interest rate rises are not good for the general public but for for those of us who own a piece of paper with a picture of a black horse on it that says Lloyds share certificate. the grass is green and those roses smell beautiful
Ive held 88 shares for a long time but like many here ive sold the vast majority in panic mode over the years and thats my fault ,im ok with that because l fully understand the risks. Ive since invested in safer stuff and got good returns so alls well that ends well... There seems to be a pattern here a bit like the song "Circle of life" from the lion king only this is an annual cycle. Drilling , Glossy reports, Cash raise, repeat, The Prospects for the company seem bright at the moment... you read these glossy reports and think... Wow this is fabulous stuff an amazing investment, billions of barrels due to 88 anyone can see this is a winner....Im sure all the prospectors from all the top oil companies have also read 88 reports but there is no mention in the glossy reports of take over bids, Tier 1 farm outs etc....Premier Oil packed up and left on the last day of the drill, didnt even turn the lights off on the way out.... People here are talking about "Spikes" as a way of making money, thats lottery ticket stuff...If the oil is "SEEN" to be commercial then someone will buy it... The fact that we have good oil that is now proven under our land is not enough.... Maybe this will be the drill that brings home the bacon only time will tell
Well today is a serious day for Spanking the Share Price of many Vulnerable stocks including The Black Horse.
Coronavirus is yet again the culprit and chief paddle holder for the buttock slapping of neddy..... As the long term shareholders here we look at this as one of the troughs as the Financial Advisors tell us of Peaks and Troughs.... Maybe Nu will be unpleasant and spread but we still have good business and good prospects much better than Airlines, Travel Sector and other Tourist needy stocks ... Drink tea and stay calm Q4 along with End of year results will bring home the bacon, Covid or not
Things are moving nicely once again up ladders in the game of snakes and ladders perhaps as we move towards Q4 finals with a possibility of interest rates rise we may see further mileage in our share price. im looking eagerly for our CEO Santa gifts
Good Divi?? Special?? Buyback?? hopefully not nothing and poor divi??. Personally l have a good feeling with regards to both share price and Q4 Santa rewards
Everything is moving in the right direction now, Q3 figures very Encouraging , With Rising Prices and wages its only a matter of time before interest rate rises which will only further enhance our Margins. Because we are the biggest traded stock on the LSE we will see behaviour of the snakes and ladders variety but if you look for a straight Line in the middle of the board l think you will find that this oil tanker known as Black Beauty will slowly but surely Tortoise itself over the 60p line as sure as eggs is eggs.. Then with Q4 its the New gaffers job to open the cookie jar for us eager beavers Good Dividend? Special? Buyback? This one l hope will be a real fairy tale
If Lloyds were not the heaviest traded stock on the London Stock exchange it may well be that Q3 results would have immediately put the price up 5-10% but the reality is this is an Oil tanker that takes a mile to start and a mile to stop up just a smidgin yesterday and another step today, Going up against a FTSE in negative territory l might add
Bottom line. The results are increasingly encouraging to suggest Q4 will also be at least a set of reasonable results for the year end report. Add to that a fair dividend and the price will tortoise its way towards the 55-60p area. If we get Good results and top dollar Dividend then who knows how high it can go
Excellent set of results, but you have to remember this is the most traded share on the London Stock Exchange by a mile
so there are many different factions involved. The Gaffer is clearly please with his new job and the way the company is going . It may well be in the coming days it will stabalise above 50p but if the naysayers win the day l cant see it settling much below the 50p mark our next glass ceiling... It was always going to be Q4 that makes the difference because thats the one that affects you and l in terms of Dividends, Special Dividends and Buybacks. Personally Im delighted with the results and looking forward to reaping the rewards that will be announced in Q4 Good Luck to Everyone
50p+ this month??? Have you already seen as yet unpublished Q3?
This seems to be an ongoing story with ever increasing alarm over how it could play out on the world stage. some are saying a worse case scenario with this company will trigger a world stock market crash of the magnitude of 2008. Of course if it hits the fan Lloyds will fall along with the rest of the world..... What are your thoughts on this?
l know l keep saying the same thing but its true, The Black Horse is a solid long term investment for both income and growth.
All you need is patience and the ability to receive cheques twice a year
Share prices go up as well as down or in todays case down as well as up. Whats all the fuss about... l can understand it with you daily traded options guys living from minute to minute by the seat of your pants. But the regular guys are here for income and growth. So no problem for us regular guys... The market is in turbulant times with covid with a possible correction coming at any time . but in the long term it will be ok
yes
Personally l find todays presentation much better and more concise and easier to understand than than Duster Daves drivel
And we have a clear simple stratagy in 3 simple parts. Things seem to be looking up for the first time in years in my opinion and about time too
well looks like 14 Billion Shares l remember when it was 5 Billion and outrage here when it passed 6 Billion but that was a long time ago and we are now spread much thinner.. Clearly with real oil now available all we now have to do is to get" the mars bar to the supermarket" Are we going to sell up? More Farm Outs/Partners? clearly we are going to have at least another drill and hopefully some clear guidance in what we are going to do for an end game
Falky please show us the research that in your honest opinion makes you believe we will hit 47p today
If your long term here everything is fine. but clearly the 44-49p band no longer applies looks like more of a 41-45p band at the moment that means shock horror to the would be 50-55p brigade (of which l am one) so what to do next.
take profits?, stay in?, buy somthing else? lm here for the long term and the increasing dividend policy . so mant things to consider in these times
Clearly there is a lot of panic at the moment but we have natural movement here unfortunately its a downward movement at this moment in time.. Having a progressive dividend policy is great but in reality its from a much lower baseline which clearly has not pleased many especially institutions who are looking to fund pensions, but as we develop with increasing dividends, possible buy backs and specials the price will improve. unfortunately l believe that will only come with action and deeds not promises from regular quarterly results.... Unfortunately When Jessie J said "its not about the money" too many foolish people believed her
Im Bamboozled by all these possibilities talked about this morning im afraid the bottom line is we are still 46p
and are not going anywhere until somthing happens on paper or the market is rife with speculation..
Im afraid its tea and biscuits until Q3 and Q4 still in the 44-49 range but mainly 44-47p IMHO
Other Brokers are saying Buy at 59-61p
What happens at Lloyds depends on the results and the effect the ecconomy has on financial institutions
Personally im looking at a long term growth in Dividend with modest capital growth .. Sorry Guys l cant see past the 50-55p range in the Near term that may even stretch to the medium term if Q3 & Q4 are luke warm
