CPI figure at 07.00 am could impact on ftse 100 open if wide of expectations.

I would think that the MPC will be raising rates again in March unless there is a bigger than expected fall in the inflation rate

14th Feb 2022 was about 21,600 now a little over 20,000.

Increasing interest rates will have a greater affect on ftse 250 companies.
Banks a beneficiary of higher rates

currently due to open at 8,000 tomorrow but with over 11 hours to go it could be different by 8.00 am

close today or tomorrow?

to be hit today or tomorrow?.

The current market cap of Lloyds is about £36 Billion. You can work out based on that market cap what the share price would be with 12% more shares on the market.
You can extract the value from the share repurchase programmes anytime you like.

''would be nice to have doubled it's value and when taking inflation into account ''

It was your choice to sit on your hands when the Lloyds share price was below 24p not that long ago..
If any investor wants to take inflation into account, then buying at 53p per share now is cheaper than buying at 53p per share 10 years ago - it works both ways.

''other stocks I have bought when I had these are up massively like 3i, yet still pay a far better div.''

3I Group as you know, I am a shareholder of, is currently yielding a little over 3% - currently near an all time high.

NOTHING ever changes with you - consistently negative and boring - heard it all 100's of times from you already.

I have pointed out the fault in the wiring of your brain many times before when it comes to share repurchase programmes. You repeating such nonsense to a new audience doesn't alter that fact.

The buybacks in recent years have taken about 8 Billion shares out of circulation, without which there would currently be about 12% more shares on the market.
Lloyds can afford currently to return at least £4 Billion a year to shareholders meaning that due to share purchases, £4 Billion can be returned to 12% fewer shares, and that will improve again with further share purchase programmes - that will be the case for every year in the future.

all time closing high today? - pushing towards 8,000

''In summary Lloyds is clearly undervalued by any measure''

Unfortunately any positive response to Newchurch will fall on deaf ears - she only thrives on negatively - at least ST (whybother) is now gone having said he will sell no matter what before the end of 2022 - just hope that ST finds a bit more positivity in a new investment.

The downturn has yet to bite and the damage takes months to filter through as businesses scrimp, scrape to try to keep going, so unemployment etc won't show until Winter the true state of the damage to the economy ''

''With not just a year, but years of inflation for lth the pitiful share price of Lloyds says more than any poster ever can about the bank, the increasing level of HMG subtle milking of it''

''Any CEO will ensure it pleases Gov dictate and pressure more than it ever cares about millions of faceless shareholders, for so long as he pays a div of similar amount to others, he knows that they will always be there, so 'why' pay more?''

and as some may already know, she is happy to hold Lloyds shares year after year despite having the chance to sell out at a profit.
Expect more of the same from NC

NC
''just more buybacks, which costs Lloyds a fortune just to 'save' paying out a lowly 4% or whatever dividend on each.''
''For at that miserly rate it would take them a couple of decades to realise a gain''
''Hardly an outstanding return''

is it any wonder why you keep changing your ID. - wipes the slate clean for you to start the same repetition all over again

NC
btw, you were moaning about BP doing buybacks when at the £3 level and also said that the outlook for oil companies was dire.

''Hopefully a steady rise up to £28-£30 by end if year is a possibility.??''

I would have used the word 'possibility' for reaching £28 in the next few months.
It would be disappointing not to be near £30 by the EOY

closed well off of UK intra day high from early this morning.
Hopefully the forward push can continue next week.
