"Gap Down - 1st Sept, not filled...and not on your list...
DYOR"
No it's not filled, nearly was yesterday and will be on the way up, not down. However if you do your own research you'll see it's on A1's list.
Just saying.

There's the weekend double act back again talking/correcting each other. Its all good entertainment reading remoaners fidgeting about nothing. You gotta laugh.

It's all coming together with the EU.

Plus with the US taking the rap for breaking WTO rules with China, has opened up the possibility of a trade agreement early next year.

No chance of UK negative rates ATM, plenty of other options to support spending available.

Better be careful all the nonbelievers, you might be left behind, but I guess most have no intention of investing here anyway.

What's the correlation between lloyds SP and IAG/RR?
We've had no cash calls.........yet.

Judging by that article we'll all be moving to the West Midlands if you want the vaccination early, as that is the only area mentioned.
If true, It all sounds promising.

Yes I bought some RDSB today LTI, but we can't speak about other shares on here, hehe.

The “letter of formal notice” to the UK as a result of the controversial clauses in the Internal Market Bill, are not quite as exciting as they seem…

Despite fanfare surrounding the announcement, this is not an uncommon process. Infractions are a common tool used by the EU and the UK has been infracted before as a Member State. Last year alone there were 800 open infringement cases across all EU Member States – on average 29 cases against each member state. What’s more each procedure takes on average 35 months to complete…
We'll be long gone by then.
As compiled by the Commission’s own database, the top three countries for number of pending infringement proceedings are Spain, Italy, and von der Leyen’s native Germany.
Let's face it they had to respond somehow.

Just couldn't resist @ 885 these are well over sold.
Just saying.

Everyone knows this is the lloyds BB, if you can't mention another share on here maybe it's time to call it a day.

Where is this action going to be contested?
The European court of justice, say no more your honour!!!!!!

OK, who removed or reported the RR posts from earlier? (We probably have a good idea).
If you go on many other BB's other shares are frequently discussed sometimes to the extent that the named BB is not even mentioned.
This lloyds BB is a snitches charter, stupid idiots trying to control what's being said.
I think all agree that abusive posts should be removed, but now you can't discuss another share on here.
Polarized opinions are all good but censorship never works.
Just saying.

Mortgage approvals hit their highest level in 13 years last month, as a temporary cut to stamp duty and pent up demand from lockdown led to a surge in house sales.

The Bank of England on Tuesday said the number of mortgage approvals increased “sharply” to 84,700 in August. The spike represents the highest level of approvals since October 2007, on the eve of the financial crisis. The surge in borrowing was well ahead of forecasts from City of London economists of a 71,000 rise.

Wonder who's lending all this money?

Bronco, I hope you didn't read this in the Express.

Darth it's a binary choice but you do keep on about it, you've made your point but you can't seem to move on.
Just saying.

Quite so PSK, but I think DT must fancy Silvana Tenreyro as that's probably the 5th time he's mentioned her, it fits in with his views.

One thing for sure is that lloyds will not be on the floor forever and when it turns, which it will, despite the number of issued shares it can move quite quickly. When it does you will either read from the 10p-15p doomsters how clever they were to have bought a holding here before the change of direction or you'll probably never hear from them again.
We've had them all on this BB before and the vast majority have disappeared

DT, he wouldn't be doing his job if he did not have a plan that included negative rates. That does not automatically mean that they will be implemented. I just don't believe that the UK will see negative rates, they are practically negative ATM. As I've said previously it's a phycological step too far but in practice a very small movement.
What's your timeframe for the "near future?"

Interesting Wids, I guess there are independent body's in the UK checking the CPI just like the governments 'independent' ONS agency.

Wids, I've often wondered, maybe that's why they switched from RPI to CPI they were rumbled and couldn't fiddle it anymore. :-))

John, this was effectively the last communication from the BOE, "the preparations now under way were aimed more at fully understanding the effects of negative rates, rather than at seeking to implement them."
As you know (and Largarde quickly learnt) any statements from central banks have to be precise and to the point because every financial journalist will interpret it in other ways. I guess that's why the BOE included that sentence.
Now the US are only concerned with average inflation they have if I remember correctly, stated there will be no more rate reductions or increases until inflation exceeds 2% (could be a long wait).
Until the next BOE statement the status quo remains , ATM I don't believe negative rates are imminent.
I don't profess to know about all this John, most of its above me, but like others I have an opinion. I'm just trying to make a few bob on the market.
