Not worth putting out any positive messages to Newchurch about Lloyds, they will fall on deaf ears.
She only thrives on misery.
She likes to keep her Lloyds shares though year after year after year.

''You've used that line before WL.''

NC has used many many lines many many times

''CNA has rocketed since most of its major (retail) rivals went kaput''

British Gas does not really contribute to profits.

''the key question is, will this turnround in the company's fortunes translate into high returns for investors.''

share price was about 30p 3 years ago, now 104p

Good rise for Centrica, but still nearly a £3 lower share price than about 10 years ago.

Continued good performances by BP and SHELL on XD day

''But it puts them right in the crosshairs of the hard-Left ultra''
''windfall tax''

Any nonsense that may come from certain quarters need to realise that Centrica are making a bit of a recovery from ROCK BOTTOM.
The market cap is STILL about a quarter that of about 10 years ago.

the 1.75 Billion dollar bid was narrowly defeated.
Standard chartered market cap now about 26 Billion dollars.

Lloyds had previously sold about 20% of Royal Bank of Scotland.
Rumours of Lloyds TSB making another attempt at SC in early 2000's.
Lloyds bid for Abbey National was blocked by government, but was OK for a Spanish bank to do so - government though waved through a bid for failing HBOS for obvious reasons - forced to sell TSB by the EU -crazy world

La
''yes I make mistakes''
'' worked for £2.50 per week as an apprentice, in 1976.''

yes the mistake is the salary that you have quoted

NC
''which is why shares used to have far higher dividends to make the risk/reward worth it.''

companies have different dividend policies - interest on cash can now be earned risk free and at a much higher rate than yields on many companies offer.

AZN current yield as one example of many that I could give (I am a shareholder) is currently yielding about 2%

NC
'' must tell you something is not right with Lloyds.''

you have held Lloyds share, year in year out - ST sold out of Lloyds as he was fed up moaning about the bank all the time - I imagine that would be a step too far for you as you thrive on misery

NC
'Does capital put into a savings account go up with inflation each year?
Does the capital value invested in premium bonds go up with inflation each year?

NC
''if buying Lloyds shares today compared with earlier times makes it more of a bargain.''

so you think that 52p is not a far better bargain than a higher price of 10 years ago and with the fact that Lloyds Banking Group is in the best shape since it was formed in 2009?

a new day, a different contributor

about 10 years ago - my computer was showing wrong date/time - a glitch .

10 years and a month

NC
''informing the board of imo, the fact that this is a dire share''

You have been holding shares year in year out at an average of about 60p. You could have sold out in the past at a very good increase in capital value,.
and you could have purchased at 24p not that long ago - so stop the fking moaning year in year out.
Does capital put into a savings account go up with inflation each year?
Does the capital value invested in premium bonds go up with inflation each year?

Taking into account inflation, how much more of a bargain is Lloyds now for investors to purchase, than 10 years ago 12th Feb 2013 - closing price of 55.45p ?

''but our country actually has its own NHS''
