You did not have shares taken from you for which you got paid.
The money you have been paid was simply from money sitting on the balance sheet.
The shares that you had got consolidated.
If you now purchase shares you will be increasing your percentage ownership compared with last week

I did a bit of shopping today, putting more cash into 3 stocks.

2016 - GET OVER IT.

We have very low unemployment and plenty of jobs available.
Anyone who wanted vaccinations foe Covid 19 have had them - don't care about the fate of those who refused.
The war will mean transition away from Russian oil.
We had supply side issues prior to war from coming out of pandemic lockdowns etc

''We are in big trouble''

I suggest then, with that view you must be 100% cash.
I am not

I buy more on a decreasing share price and sell on the way up - I have made a few sales on the way up from my 24p purchase, the last being at about 53p on 7th Jan - then bought some at 38.5p on 7th March, I would have sold that batch also at about 53p but didn't quite get there.
I have said in the past I don't mind how low the share price goes so long as in my view the fundamentals will look ok for the future from any short term blip.

''Must be me''

and many others - same people I imagine who cannot understand the simplicity of a return of capital from asset sales accompanied by a relevant consolidation of shares.

For about the 300th time - the market determines what valuation to place on Lloyds banking group on a daily basis

''I reckon we see 5 Billion shares cancelled come August time''

I said recently - the share price would have to move a lot lower from here to achieve that.
To start with I would have been happy with 4 Billion, but 4.5 Billion is looking increasingly a possibility.

''Should be circa 65 mil''

how do you come to that conclusion?

''how poor is this buy back getting''

What on earth are you on about?, so far the investment has gone very well.
I would have thought that if an investor wanted to buy £10,000 worth of Lloyds shares, they would prefer to pay 45p per share rather than 55p per share - Would anyone on here prefer to make an investment at the higher price.?

4 weeks until next MPC meeting/rate rise

as you might expect on a dividend pay day, the highest of the week, but still no higher than recent averages.

The housing market has been fuelled by virtually free money since the GFC, and also various schemes that have been on offer - Help to Buy etc.

If mortgage holders had to start paying 5 or 6% on their mortgages next week, the very long period of property overvaluation, would start to reverse.
It is a question of wait and see to find out how high base rates and mortgage rates will go from here - already gone up a lot from the low.

at under 695p to average up a bit more

''15 million people have died. Shame on you.''

Such people are absolutely disgusting calling the pandemic fake - they have a screw loose

back at 55.5p the shares I had sold at over £1

back at under 254p some of the shares that I sold at over £3

now over 1,000 points down

I said it before and I shall say it again - the mechanism for being in the 2 indices and the calculation in change of the indices are completely different.

Ftse 100 contains more defensive and number of stocks hence why the index is little changed YTD - Dow down about 14%

hu
the Fste 100 does not follow the dow
