Offer about a 12% total annual return at the current share price level.
2024 dividends should total at least 3p per share giving a forward yield of
about 6%
MS continuing to pick up very cheap Lloyds shares, with institutions happy to sit back and see another year of increased ownership, without necessarily having to purchase any further shares.
It is in the interests of long term shareholders that the share price remains subdued whilst buybacks remain a priority.
3i reaching new all time high
ftse 100 reaching new all time highs
UK shares remain cheap
I remember, being stated as the saviour for Metro when it was acquired, by the ever hopeful shareholders on here , that would grasp at anything.
Once there were hundreds of posts on here daily from those same people thinking that a return to £40 a share was just a matter of time once this that and the other had happened, to now being hardly any. How times change.

On the ftse 100 later today ? - currently at record level to open.

''So they may only own 40% of the JV but the combined JV is now far larger than when had 100% of their own beers.''

The value of the Marstons brewing business was nearly 3 times more than that of Carlsberg brewing UK at the creation of Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company (CMBC),but Marston only ended up with a 40% stake because in addition Carlsberg paid Marstons about an additional £270 million in cash.

Marstons own 40 per cent of CMBC - simple
For nearly £41 million.
Hopefully they will use some of the proceeds for a share buyback or tender offer.
Current market cap of £340 million is way below NAV
Nice move up at the moment today

''The worst is yet to come...34.5p will be seen in 2024''
SO - 48p a possibility, but 34.5p will happen in the coming months -
something not quite right there
Trading under way - market cap 11.5 Billion dollars.
Flotation today in the US with a targeted valuation of 11 Billion dollars.
SAGA market cap £156 million

''China wants HSBC broken up''
? - STOP - don't post misleading info for investors or potential investors.
The insurance company Ping An would have preferred splitting the business last year when HSBC completely rebuffed their suggestion.
Since then HSBC has greatly increased returns to shareholders and made sales of those assets that they no longer wanted for the future direction.
Forgot - HSBC announced another 3 Billion dollar buyback after the recent completion of a 2 Billion dollar programme.
Lloyds should think about increasing the 12 month buyback budget whilst at such low pricing levels.
