''Would have to go up about 400 percent to break even''

or you could buy 4 times more shares than you have already got,then it wouldn't have to go up a great deal - all about choices

well done with that gamble

''Long term did not know u were into metro bank''

I wouldn't say 'into' but I have some shares.

I bought a few Metro years ago (a bit of fun) with a bit of loose change that I had in my account which quickly turned sour. I then traded a number of spread bets with mtro that made profits that exceeded the share outlay, making the shares 'for free'.

More recently I purchased some shares from the previous profits -

LTI (on mtro board) -

''Bought some 13 Mar 2024 12:59

At a bit over 32p using up most of previous profits to add to already held 'for free' shares to give a round xx,xxx shares now held 'for free'.

This is a tiny for fun holding for me, so not too bothered if Metro fail to get their house in order. Shareholders with larger stakes will of course keep a closer interest. Good luck ''

IMB reached another 5 year high

MTRO reached a new 52 week high

basically they were ruling out Covid.

Without Covid around people wouldn't be tested to see if they had a cold

Basically you were tested for Covid

''Surely you may as well sell up and move to a safe savings account ''

Precisely - the reason we have lower tax rates on dividends is because of the risk factor involved in deploying capital.

Reduces rates

''other corona virus like the common cold, flu, RSV etc''

why on earth would you want to test for a common cold - flu and rsv are not Corona viruses

''The difference is due to rebased chart....''

re basing of charts puts the high at about £6.50p. The ftse 100 was about 15% higher in 1999 than 1998. Article from 11 years ago stated a high price in 1999 along with the ftse 100.

Hopefully the share price can continue to nudge up a bit further in the coming months/years.

Xd today - extra monthly dividend this year split into 3 this year which some may prefer.
