I think the EU is great!

Wreckless act of self harm to leave really!

Permanent negative economic impact on the UK as well as the other problems it's created! Just imagine cutting yourself off from your closest biggest market?????

Yes, calling the bottom here, is the trick for lloyds!

American interference is the real problem in the middle east!

"Major financial institutions have released their economic growth forecasts, with most predicting an increase of 4.3% to 4.4%."

As it was a false flag attack by guess who on Cyprus and not Iran after all!

All smokescreen to deflect attention away from the Epstein scandal!

I think Sir Keir is great and let's hope he in for many years!

Good chance he'll outlast Trump I reckon!

But it's Jeremy Corbyn I really would have liked to be leading the Labour Party and the country.

And off topic I know but lloyds doing well today!

Apologies again for the interruption!

Yes, that could end badly I'd imagine!

Ust sank into a technical correction:.

However, everything at the moment is being driven by the instability this war has caused asopposed to company fundamentals!

LTI clearly has a thing for goats!

The mind boggles!

Goat curry is my limit.

Overall, not sure how goats fit into investing in lloyds...

Why has the UK got a base in Crypus, in the first place?

The Cypriots should have put that to end a long time ago anyway!

Regardless, I don't expect huge volatility short term in equity markets!

Agree we must pay tribute to Sir Keir for taking the moral high ground and not getting involving this illegal war!

Will be very interesting to see how equities respond in the coming days. The gold/silver prices seem to suggest trader selloff to fund equity losses.

Please paraphrase what the link is about in future!

Triumph, "Spare a thought for the countless murdered solely at the hands of that regime over the decades."

Indeed, at the hands of one particular genocidal state, backed by the Americans!

You make my point for me, so succinctly!

On lloyds, I see protracted stalemate for this conflict in the coming weeks, with stocks moving sideways, given the Americans lack a plan, end game or indeed the means to conclude a conflict where they have no clear end game. The real Rick here's that of contagion and the conflict spillover into neighbouring countries and destabilising the whole region, with the consequental wider impact.

"Spain and the UK have done the right thing by wanting no part of its execution."

It's just the right wing nutters on here that don't support the principled stand that our esteemed leaders Sir Keir has taken!

Clearly the Americans were thinking it would be a rerun of what happened in Venezuela, but are now discovering that is not quite going to be that simple.

Clearly, there is no strategy here by the aggressors here which is American / xxxx!

On lloyds and equities generally I think stock values already have factored in a protracted war, increased energy costs and disruption to global shipping / trade.

Triumph1 @ 21:54 on the 04/03/26, "It's all going beautifully to plan".

Rather sick individual gloating over people dying!

As with many on here 88 sucks up the western media spin, but clearly lacks when it comes to critical thinking.

Mission object 'regime change' discretely dropped by the Americans and we're still waiting for the long promised popular rising of Iranians!

Seems they now have called for Kurds outside Iran to invade, but o dear the Americans just dumped on them big time last month, when they abandoned the Syrian Kurds, who were fighting a proxy war for the Americans and their promise of an independence kurdish homeland in Syria was no longer supported by the American. The Americans have zero credibility!

Americans invade Iran?

Can't believe you even wrote that as a possibility!

In the coming weeks to scoop up equities at knock down prices!
