at about 37.5p

After the demerger, woodside shares fell a bit. I purchased some more at about £17 on the drop. . I have now sold all my shares at £21.
They were superfluous for my portfolio, as I am already a BP and SHELL shareholder.

should be the 31st

''In the UK we have to import half of our food.. What should that tell us?''

It tells us that we are on a small overpopulated island,where certain produce cannot be grown and others where it is cheaper to buy in.

There is no limit to the share price if 10% of shares are bought and cancelled every year.
Just in the current 3 month buyback, about 3% of shares would have disappeared

order in at 43.95

share buybacks are to reduce the share count .The market determines a share prive.
Lloyds have a progressive dividend policy. The prospective forward yield at current prices is about 5.4%. In addition the current buyback is returning about a further 6% to shareholders.

without the share buybacks of 2018, 2019 and the current programme there would be about
75.5 Billion shares in circulation instead of the soon to be about 67.5 Billion.

Instead of about 67.5 Billion shares in circulation (at end of programme) without recent buybacks there would have been about 75.5 Billion shares in circulation, meaning a decent beneficial differential for shareholders.

the buyback is increasing the percentage ownership for investors

''Holding the number of shares it issue at roughly the same figure year after year..?''

No clearly 67.5 Billion shares is a lot less than the number of shares in issue since ja year after the formation of LBG.
Lloyds had not been in a position for a number of years because of the GFC and PPI to undertake substantial share purchases, The current programme is greater than that of a combined 2018.2019 programme where a total of less than 3.5 Billion shares were bought.

''So how has the buyback increased the percentage ownership for investors over the past decade..''

Let me help you.

Without the 2018,2018 and the current buyback (when complete) there would be about 8 Billion more shares in circulation.

67s

The end of month (August) figure not far away.
about 120 million shares have disappeared since block listing - keep up

T

what has that got to do with an end of month (July) figure?
