Totally agree with you - Got 100000 of this at 30.6. hope to hold for ever!!! This should see at least £1.00 in 3 yrs. THats £100,000 :-D

Discuss. On a serious note, you can blame people shorting in an aggresive volatile market!

200p last week like you said so at todays prize they are bound to take some profits especialli in a volatile bear market. Still cheap though. Financial stocks' time would come again.

DYOR though. I can't wait for their full year results. Should take this, shorters permitting, to over 300 in no time at all. Definitely on my must have list

LONDON, March 17 (Reuters) - British life insurer Friends Provident reported 2008 underlying profits in line with expectations on Tuesday and reassured on its capital strength. Friends Provident, the smallest of Britain's blue-chip life insurers, said its underlying pretax profit came in at 420 million pounds, for 2008, slightly ahead of the average forecast of 399 million pounds, supplied by the company. That compares with a profit of 16 million pounds in 2007, which was skewed by 473 million of charges. On a statutory basis, Friends posted an underlying pretax loss of 190 million pounds, in line with expectations. It reported a pretax loss from continuing operations of 871 million pounds on charges related to its stake in asset manager F&C. The insurer posted a full year dividend per share of 3.9 pence, compared to 8 pence in 2007, and said it will create a new holding company to pay the dividend.

http://www.forbes.com/2009/03/16/aig-citigroup-options-personal-finance-investing-ideas-arena-pharmaceuticals.html http://uk.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=aig What effect this would have on LGEN's price tomorow I do not know. Any thoughts?

Not bad at all!! So hoping for better things tomorrow

Its the bl00dy alarmists and shortsellers aided by their cronies in the press For all of them, a classic case of "Heads I win, Tails you lose" hehe

with FP results. If its true that they cut dividends then, I think this will fall back to 28p -ish. Profit takers would bail out. And asI mentioned earlier Shorters will start sniffing around again. So 25th is far mate. Sentiment that might create more panic or generate confidence starts tomorrow.... So for that reason, I am OUT Only joking...

IF FP cuts divis!! THe greedy B@stards!!!!

Been buying and selling this for last 2-3 weeks or so. bought last week at 26.4 but sold 28.5p. Then got back in at 27.2 and sold 32p. So not too bad but wish I had gone long at 26p!!!!

Hope it has a positive effect on this tomorrow.

I sttrongly believer that long term, this would be a winner. Should hopefuly go back to its £1.00 - £1.25 price per share. When we eventually turn the corner, apart from banks, financial stocks are going to fly!!! And they will start flying before others
