I think you will find that Lloyds NIM is far higher than Tesco's net margin

''they enjoyed fat margins ''

don't think there is such a thing as fat margins with supermarkets.
I believe the net profit margin at Tescos ( I am a shareholder) is not much more than 1.5%

Hollybean - 17p
Newchuch - 34p

but happy to keep holding at 47p

''If they have seen a 15% drop on property values ALREADY, and with a trifling sum invested in such compared to Lloyds massive exposure to property, especially commercial, then, once the fall really gets underway, and with such a huge liability, the mill-stone of such around Lloyds investors necks will throttle us far worse.''

As I said - negativity . It would help if you knew what you were talking about.
DLG are referring to their direct property investment portfolio.
A drop in commercial property values and household property values has no bearing on Lloyds who have given out loans/mortgages on such property.

'' a token gesture feeble lift in div at best imo.''

it would have been anticipated months ago that the final dividend would be about 1.6p - it would have been each individual investors opinion as to whether that is feeble and taken appropriate action if they so wished.
You absolutely thrive on negativity.

The rest of your post is what you have wheeled out at least a dozen times over the years

Newchurch

Never any change with you - very consistent - negativity ,negativity, negativity - year after year after year and yet still content having a Lloyds investment.

''I'm hoping for a steady rise in the price and a decent dividend rise. Lets hope no more money is set aside for impairment''

I am hoping for a steady share price at today's level or a bit lower and a £1 Billion provision and a minimum of at least a £2 Billion share buyback

''is it possible for lloyds BG to do both ?''

yes, they have already stated that buybacks and special dividends can be used to make a return of excess capital to shareholders.

For the third time today -

Fck off you complete imbecile

For the third time today -

Hfel now over 40p above the recent low of a little over 2 months.

I have made 9 purchases below the current level, so no complaints from me

with a number of my stocks up, and with SAGA continuing a good run up to be getting on for doubling in price since my last purchase only a few months ago.

Steady Lloyds - don't want it too high for the next buyback

wey

hardly worth it - will soon be no more - dead as a dodo

it appears that you and others seem to know what the state of affairs would be in a non existent reality

Lloyds forward p/e is a little over 6.

If Lloyds profitability is greater than anticipated and at the same time banks are re -rated now we are in a higher interest rate environment and with other factors in the rear mirror, then a share price into triple digits may at that point in time still only have Lloyds on a p/e of 12.
The p/e has been a lot greater than 12 in years past.

''Do they bring more money in than it costs to have them?''

The royal family gave up all of the income from the royal estate which instead goes into the countries coffers.
The sovereign grant is far less than the income generated from the royal estate.
