Lloyds shares: a play on the UK economy
Firstly, the UK economy needs to strengthen. Lloyds shares are essentially a proxy for the UK economy. When it’s firing, the shares tend to do well. When the economy’s struggling, the shares tend to underperform.

Britain's economic prospects for the rest of this year and into 2021 are shining brighter than the average for the Group of Seven advanced economies.

Figures due next week will underline the scale of the damage to the UK economy from the coronavirus crisis. Numbers for the public finances in June are expected to be dire, but by their nature they are backward looking, whereas the OECD's 'leading indicator' seeks to forecast where economies are going, not where they have been.

"The way I see it at this moment in time is the best option for shareholders in Lloyds is to break up the group and sell off the seperate companies"

The motley fool do seem to be more knowledgeable than you

More than 200 of Britain's top financial experts have joined forces to design initiatives to help small businesses restructure and repay as much as 35 billion pounds in "unsustainable" COVID-19 relief debt.

The bigger picture
At its core, Lloyds is a good company with sound fundamentals. Over the past five years, its historical annual earnings growth is 24%, which is exceptional. The bank’s liabilities consist of low-risk source of funds, which consequently lead to a low level of loans gone bad at only 1.3%. The company has a robust network of customers and a solid product offering.

Lloyds Bank stock continues sideways movement
The Lloyds Bank stock, on the other hand, hasn’t recovered quite as much. Its share price is up only by 8.5% from its lowest. Interestingly, Lloyds Bank hit its lowest only after the FTSE 100 index did and was a result of suspending dividends. Lloyds Bank has clearly not been a growth stock for a long time and it’s quite likely that many investors were drawn to its high dividend yield. With no passive income, it’s little surprise that it just wasn’t very attractive anymore.

Rock-bottom interest rates
The British economy is in for a rough ride during the first part of the 2020s, at least. So you should expect the Bank of England to keep interest rates parked around current record lows of 0.1% in a further blow to Lloyds’ ability to create profits.
