Now 14 consecutive trading days where MS have managed to purchase at an average under 44p.

Al
well done - unfortunately on my platform Aviva shares were unavailable to purchase for the whole week following the consolidation - I made do with a spread bet on the day. I have made a strong complaint highlighting what their inability to deal with the corporation action swiftly has cost me. It has gone to the complaints dept, but I am not holding my breath for compensation.
Another consolation is that I purchased before the consolidation shares that I had previously sold at about 457p

st
Maybe someone at MS?
I wish though that could 'fix' it at 10p per share whilst spending the remaining £1 Billion

st
What would be the purpose of this unknown person to 'fix' the Lloyds price at 44p?

st
who is the person in this world that is 'fixing' Lloyds price at 44p and for what purpose?

st
stop being a pea brain

st
''the "hired man" moved the share price over 100% in 6months to a year!. i''

what a load of ball lox. It is the weight of buying money - demand that would increase a stocks price.

As i said you are losing the plot.

what has asley got to do with the market of the london stock exchange valuing businesses on a daily basis - supply and demand.

st
''The markets decide F ALL''

you are losing the plot. Do you not see the market deciding on price each minute of every trading day.

cb
''The share price can't even break 44p''

yes, good for those of us holding for the longer term to get the extra benefits of a low priced investment being made for us by MS

st
''you should be able to predict the share price''

What planet are you on?
For the 301st time - the market determines the value of Lloyds on a daily basis

Put it this way if I had purchased a £1 million worth of aviva on the 16th, about £250,000 of which would be buying £250.000 cash on the balance sheet, my accountant would not be advising me that I had made a £250,000 capital gain come the 19th - that would be crazy to think a capital gain had been made.

What idiot thinks that a gain of £250,000 would have been made?

st
yes by giving you the amount removed you can work it out.

The share price currently would be about 1.4p less based on the current market cap

2,084,057,168

st
''Where would the share price be without being propped up by the buyback?''

can you not do simple arithmetic?

As of close yesterday 2,084.,057.168 shares have been removed

investment being made on behalf of shareholders continuing at below 45p rather than at 55p - what crazy person would want the still to spend £1 Billion + to be spent at the higher level and thus being able to purchase many millions less shares

loyds current market cap about £30 Billion

Put it this way if I had purchased a £1 million worth of aviva on the 16th, about £250,000 of which would be buying £250.000 cash on the balance sheet, my accountant would not be advising me that I had made a £250,000 capital gain come the 19th - that would be crazy to think a capital gain had been made.

mr
''For shares held outside an ISA or SIPP
your capital gain from the returned capital due to the redemption of the B shares is''

there is no capital gain from the returned capital - any potential gains can be worked out when selling shares on the re based cost.

''Mathematics of it says so.
More shares more divi cash, more shares more monetary value growth of my holding. Can't say anymore to make it easier to understand.''

ffs - you are deluded

TD
The recent rise has added over £1 Billion to the value of Aviva - about a 10% rise from 390p - Aviva now valued at about £12 Billion.

Without the return the market cap would have expected to have risen from about £14.75 Billion to £15.75 Billion giving an increase of about 6.5%
