In fact that post is on every board I look at - what's that all about??
This post by "Jilen" also appears on the LGEN board - click on the name and you get referred to admin - whatever that means.

Clearly you have not read the article, the bar charts comparing market performance through the years tells a very different story - the difference between the two parties is very significant. This outgoing Tory party has faced a challenge (COVID) not seen in my lifetime, and hopefully never again, plus a needless war in Ukraine resulting in a damaging energy crisis. Read the article.
So we now know that the general election will not be in May 2024 but probably in October/November 2024.
I wanted to know what we can expect from Labour and what their previous periods in office actually did for the UK Stock Market - what a shock I got - It is all revealed at - cps.org.uk - The article is "THE STOCK MARKET UNDER LABOUR" the author is John Littlewood. It is a really enlightening read and includes many comparisons of how the UK market compared to European and other overseas market. It is a real wake up call - Enjoy.
Get lucky and get 300p for these, the analysts price targets look like a distant pipe dream -
To report in the annual results, many things post year end events. Perhaps the time is coming for the share price to move north. Just hope AFC has the infrastructure in place to deliver on all of the projects that have been reported.
StockCheque: The last raise was made at a time when AFC had over £25m already in the bank - there is no way they will try to raise further funds when the cash balance falls as low as suggested in your post - the lines below are from the interim report in 2021.
· Strategic investment from ABB and Dutco cornerstoning an oversubscribed fundraise of £36m in April.
· Stronger half year cash balance of £61.6m (HY 2020: £2.8m) with investment in product development and increased headcount resulting in an increased loss for the period of £3.3m (HY 2020: £1.8m).
Received by email reiterating the great undervalued state of the shares.
The fair value price targets published by Zeus, WHIreland, Cavendish and even the guy from the Investors Chronicle are looking miles away. Even Jim has gone off to buy houses, all very disappointing from a LTH point of view.
Well done
I bought some on 25th October 2023 at under 40p, so a double digit return/increase in capital value (nearly 20%) in a little over 4 months.
If you have banked that GREAT - It is not a "double digit return" from LLOY. It is an open market trade LLOY have no financial part to play in it.
Despite throwing billions into buying back and cancelling the shares this is the woeful performance of LLOY - I might add the 52.19p high was in March 2023 and has never been seen since - Question Will it get better in 2024?. Still guys maybe buyers will be attracted by the "double digit returns".
YEAR RANGE
GBX 39.42 - GBX 52.19
Which idiot posted this at 15:06 this afternoon:
"You still don’t understand that buybacks increase the share price by the percentage of stock removed from the register over the duration of the buyback."
Come on own up - it is almost as bad as "LLOY is giving shareholders double digit returns"
LTI you wrote
"NO, the dividend distribution has not been flat"
FACT Lloyds have spent billions buying back shares, they have announced huge profits
Feb 2024 final dividend 1.84p
Feb 2019 final dividend 2.14p
Not flat at all - just significantly lower.
So much for double digit returns - Haha.
LTI
Question - Have you age related memory problems or do you not remember whether you have or not?
I know exactly what I get -" the dividend paid into my account" might I remind you "that does NOT equate to the double digit returns" you continually spout on this BB.
LLOY is paying LESS in dividends in 2024 than it did pre COVID. The share price is lower than it was at the start of the 2023 buybacks and it continues to struggle to even attain 50p.
LTI you said
"Lloyds are making double digit returns to shareholders - no one should be complaining"
I recall receiving the interim and final dividend it was not a "double digit" return. I also note I own a greater % of the company, I also note my capital is less now than it was 12 months ago. I also note the company are retaining the dividend on the shares bought back and cancelled - reducing the total paid out to shareholders.
Question - are you getting something different??
