Anyone would think you are talking Lloyds down after making sales.

I am afraid that your talk has no influence on what the market will price Lloyds at.

''Failure to cut interest rates = greedy banks... people are suffering''

It is the BOE that sets base rates on which other rates are directly/indirectly related.

I think you will find that millions 'suffered' for over a decade with near Zero returns on cash.

''Back to 51p for the Donkey, this has got more chance of going to 30p then 60p''

You would make a lousy odds compiler for a betting firm

''Realistic to assume over 600 when all the new ISA money gets shovelled in''

How long for it to get back to near £16 - the level I sold out at in Jan 2018?

It is certainly making fast progress since getting back into the stock at 392p less than 6 months ago.

S123

some people are so lazy/ cannot do a simple task - currently 59p if the share price opened at that level in the morning, but the 59p figure will increase as the buyback programme progresses.

MP

Jan 2022 when I made a sale at 53p the market cap was about £37.64 Billion

Today's market cap is £33 Billion

MP

''What levels, for you meet this criteria ?''

I have already given an indication in a past post - I last sold at 53p in Jan 2022. The equivalent price to that this year would be about 60p + depending on at what point in the buyback programme such a price is hit (if at all)

''The resulting change (drop) in exchange rates will upset more than it pleases. ''

Sterling down today with US data

UK inflation due to fall further - energy costs for households down from today

Dow getting a bit giddy - from nearing the 40,000 heights, with sticky inflation meaning the 10 yr comfortably above the 4% level.

BOE may not move on base rates independently

MP

''its a vicious circle ''

is it? -

a lot more fear needed re car loan farce to get back to my last purchase level.

Lloyds banking group is in the best shape since it was formed. Since it was formed we have had a high of about 90p per share with more shares in issue.

Still a long way off of pre pandemic levels of the 60's which had a temporary dip due to the buyback having to be stopped due to the appearance of a last PPI instalment.

I am hoping for a lot more fear re car loans farce to get back down to the small range that HU was guessing would be the case during the buyback because of the car farce.

Would be great for the buyback, but I will not be complaining of a continuation of the upward tread, getting near to some selling contemplation levels.

Capt & MP

MS could do with a lot more help from greater numbers of willing sellers.

MP

''The trend suggests selling, missing the dividends and re investing when the buyback program is complete''

Buybacks have nothing to do with what the market value Lloyds at on a daily basis.

There have been a number of factors over the last 15 years that have knocked back the Lloyds market valuation.

I prefer to look at the fundamentals rather than anticipating another valuation affecting factor appearing whilst this years buyback is in progress.

MP

''The anticipated future decline in interest rates and any action relating to the car leasing overcharging currently being investigated could adversely impact the share price during 2024''

leasing?

Market has already factored in base rates having peaked- should help with keeping bad debt provisions lower.

Market knows about potentially applying new rules retrospectively,to back years in time -

a total farce (re loan car sales) .

Flec

no anger - just trying to put you straight - NO connection between

''''Buybacks will increase the price per share relative to what it would otherwise be."

and a re capitalisation of Rolls Royce creating Billions of more shares reducing the share price at the time.

''Thanks for letting me know the March update is missing - seems the list is getting too long for the page''

ffs - why on earth do you need to show a monthly difference in shares in issue.

28th Feb 2018 72,086,432,586

28th Mar 2024 63,716,020,308

28th Feb 2018 and the end of April 2024 would suffice for next month, etc etc for those interested.

Flec

what is it you do not understand with -

''Buybacks will increase the price per share relative to what it would otherwise be."?

''I simply used RR as a good example to make my point''

NO - what point in relation to my above that YOU quoted.? absolutely NO POINT because there is NO Relationship. What the fk has a RR re capitalisation got to do with the benefit of buybacks. You are dragging yourself into a corner

Flec

re 16:23 yesterday

the whole post in relation to what you quoted from me was a lot of waffle..

''Look at Rolls Royce ''

Why?

They recapitalised creating about an extra 6.4 billion shares dropping the price per share.

Any subsequent increase in share price since has been the result of a turnaround from being on the brink of disaster to a much improved business outlook.

so as I said, waffle and nothing to do with ''Buybacks will increase the price per share relative to what it would otherwise be."

strange how you thought that there was any relationship

''You report anything you don't agree with to LSE admin and then get erased , and in due course course get them barred .''

Once again - a STUCK RECORD.

Have you nothing better to offer

''One can only surmise you are also WOKE ''

One can surmise that you are unable to read and comprehend

''Has it not dawned on you yet that buybacks are a scam ? Decisions made by bankers , who can't be trusted , to line their own pockets .''

The usual nonsense - heard it from you years ago - change the record.

The decision is made by SHAREHOLDERS in a vote. They do so knowing that it is a good investment for the longer term

Absolutely NONE of your business in any case - you hold shares in ZERO companies. Your idea is to stay away from shares -

‘’With DOW ~30k it's not investing , it's gambling !’’

''US 10 yr notes yield ~1.5% , risk free''

The Dow is now not far off 40,000 - investors would have done well in US stocks and lost a

great percentage in capital value, getting a 1.5% yearly coupon return investing in the US 10 year.

''failed Mensa applicant''

Yet another lie - I did not accept the invitation to join Mensa, just as I did not accept an invitation to join the Freemasons.

'' they are taking shares out of circulation with what should be dividend profits and then awarding themselves shares .''

Again, NOTHING to do with you. Shares have been bought for cancellation (nearly 13 Billion of them so far), which should be the case as that is what shareholders voted for.

The BOD's do not award themselves shares.

All employees can now apply to be part of share incentive plans.
