Not to mention that pathetic exponential chart where covid cases could reach 50000 cases by october. A 10 year old could pick out the flaws in that. Purely used to scaremonger the public. Nothing more nothing less....

And of course guess what is spashed all over the media? " couvid cases could reach 50k cases by oct says whitty". What a joke!

Easy money at these levels. I wont be trading these

We are a covid stock. Lockdowns are good for us....Thats the retail investor base for ya...they love a good panic. Perhaps they should chill and read a book. I recommend shakespears "much ado about nothing".....

well....so much for "prudent investor" haha sheer and utter panic. shakepeare, eat your heart out; talk about much ado about nothing. The way this is dropping it will be zero by the end of the day never mind 90p...yet it will be one of the least affected by curfew measures. Volume is not particularly high for such a drop.

Go figure. ill certainly be looking into what plans out lord and master have for us tomorrow before topping up again which i definitely will be at these barmy prices. Stick them in the draw for 2-3 years....the bobs your aunt.

What an absolute mess today caused by politicians and governments allowing the public to wildly speculate. Fully fledged panic mode today, so the cheque book has been well and truly dusted down. Still about 63% in cash and gold for such occurences, so inept governments....bring it on.

The funny thing is that we are being punished as much as IAG? mental! when will Mr market wake up.

Tut tut, dont get greedy now jetjock ;) but hsbc has certainly got my attention now it is sub 300p.

Haha yeah I'm sure whatamess we are never going to hit...45p. Whole market is w**k today, plus the dodgy transactions havent helped banks. Once the uncertainty of lockdown is cleared in the next couple of days instead of blind speculation and pure panick, this will spring back for a decent trade. At the moment focusing on the volatile Ftse250s where bigger gains are to be made. I'll be most likely waiting to get clarity over the next couple of days as to what direction bojo wants to take things.....then stick some in for a decent trade.

Politicians have blood on their hands causing this utter carnage this morning....

I actually agree that LLOY and NWG are risky shares to hold now, but are now looking very cheap. For the SP to reach the numbers you have just plucked out of thin air with no rationale whatsoever behind them, nothing short of a severe housing crisis would need to ensue.

I don't hold these two at present, but if i had to choose, i would probably favour NWG now over LLOY, purely for the higher capital reserves and the fact that the govt own a significant proportion. On a UK PLC recovery, my choice would revert back to LLOY. However at present i am waiting for these two to bottom out with the dabble now and then for quick profits trading like i have been doing successfully over the last 6 months.

Barclays however have a diverse revenue stream across far more geographic locations with a significant proportion from the US, plus the IB arm acting as a natural hedge. You cannot paint BARC with the same brush as LLOY and NWG, so to say that BARC will fall as much in terms of percentage as LLOY and NWG from today's prices is downright dumb, and evidently BARC has faired much better in terms of percentage drop since Feb, and still some way off its march lows. Sure they have bad points, but tick far more boxes than the other two....no one can deny that.

Sure the SP may hit 90p in the coming days whilst the govt decide what they want to do re covid restrictions as the longer the uncertainty goes on, the higher the probability for interest rates to drop in November, maybe even hit high 80s? If we ever saw those prices again, you would be barmy not to have a dabble.

It is looking increasingly likely that the govt will most likely ask pub doors to close at 10pm. Sure, sentiment will whack the SP, however look a little closer and MAB may not look so badly affected as others.

The restaurants such as harvesters, toby carvery ect close at 10pm anyway, mabye some urban branches at 10.30pm. all bar one close at 11pm-12am in central london branches, but elsewhere around half 10 but only have 56 bars and 37 o'neills pubs so constitute very little in terms of revenue generation, and of course ALEX, their German operations which are unaffected.

It seems that the vast majority (75-80%) of MAB portfolio will be unaffected as they shut at 10pm anyway. On the other hand, weatherspoons pubs close much later, 80% usually around 12 or 1am, and the others at 11pm, therefore have much greater exposure to curfews at 10pm. Hopefully the more prudent investor can see this.

Hahaha lost a ton of cash in banks and iag? Really whatamess? Now who is telling fibbies. I have been extremely sucessful in almost every trade I have made over on lloy, barc, iag and many other ftse250s. £30k banked in june on IAG alone. More than you could achieve in your wildest dreams. This last 6 months has been a record breaker for me personally. hahaha....thanks to you bud my buy indicator.

You go around several boards spouting utter crap making ridiculous claims and predictions, making fake accounts bombarding thses boards with your bile. It is not just iag but several others dispite being proven wrong so many times. That's my beef with you. Perhaps if your INFA buddy speedy could keep you on a leash....

According to whatamess, he only has £5k invested here anyway....even though he told you guys he had 120k shares (consolidation adjusted) which is about £45k. OUCH! So which one is it whatamess? This prat is an A* cretin. Not a word this twit says is to be trusted....and in fact if you do the opposite you are more likely to make money like I have done in barclays, Lloyd's and iag several times eh whatamess ;)

Looks like someone is getting tetchy with a taste of his own medicine. Not too fond of crap on your own doorstep by the sounds of it! It goes without saying you consider your cash lost haha that's because it already is. Never mind, 2nd consolidation around the corner as shipyards have been fooked since 2014. 15p target for starters....but maybe lower. When has a company that has consolidated ever gone up lol. More confetti for the 15p party will be issued anytime soon by the incompetent directors, not forgetting the appledore tranches that need to be paid for yours truly, a knee jerk purchase made on the back of politicians who are knee jerk by nature and flip flop by choice. Looks like the govt have played a blinder like they did with tata steel to get some poor private sector suckers to take up a project that was barely profitable when it was not derelict. Dilution after dilution whilst asset value dwindles due to shipbuilding activity on the decline due to covid, cost cutting and flip flopping politicians....how many more millions to bring appledore into service? toxic combination.

Next fortnight should be a blast and hopefully can crack back past 400p. Still hold mine from the dive at 210.2p without once trading them

Indeed potentially interesting times ahead for Rincon. I have an amount proportional to the highly speculative nature of the south telfer field in here. Of course no guarantee at all RE south telfer, we see dusters next to gushers all the time. But you never know......

Best of luck GUN

Haha dont worry whatamess, you will see your 60p one day....when it consolidates again lol. No wonder you are desperately rubbishing other peoples views.

The bod have spunked so much money up the wall it puts a Soho alley to shame. 15p target...

25.2p. Lockdown bluster dragging domestic banks through the dirt right now. Lloy holders must feel like a piñata right now.

3 strong intraday recoveries now from NEX. A gutsy performance and the best bottom indicator one could possibly get. A macro tailwind and a little news is all that is needed now.....Watch this space.

We have some form of lockdown, but nowhere near as harmful and as impactful as march and April. People can still work, shop on the high st, eat at a restaurant (5am - 10pm for the north at the moment) and builders can still build. Its interesting as Macron, Merkel and other EU leaders have ruled out a 2nd national lockdown so for the UK to threaten the public is quite hilarious really but i am hoping they will take the threats seriously.

What about your country whatamess? i am guessing you are from central south europe? One of the reasons i brought back is because you were on here again as every time you appear, the SP rebounds. Its a proven fact, i have made so much money from using you as a buy signal. You will dissapear once it rebounds for the 4th or 5th time is it now? I have lost count. You have been so wrong in your calls here that if you were a stopped clock, you still wouldn't be right twice a day.

Technically concerning as it has breached that 100p support that has held since covid, but i suspect it wont be below this level for long. 98p will surely attract some bottom feeders, including myself.

NWG has a CET1 of 17.2%, the best in the industry. House prices will have to tank in order for this bank to get into trouble. Plus the government stake, in normal times bad, but in bad times good.

The govt sure are ratcheting up the rhetoric every day now to scare people into remission, and its a good thing as there are too many idiots out there. Unless they are ready to get the chequebook out, it's all bluster and I stand what I said before that a lockdown equivalent to march cannot happen.

However their patrionising and hypocritical undertone will begin to p155 a lot of people off considering they are as much to blame as anyone as the uk govt cant run a chicken shop efficiently. The testing debacle is a major reason we are seeing these cases rising.

I stand by my initial thoughts that unofficially, lockdown is out of the question.

Indeed. BARC have nowhere near the exposure to UK domestic woes than the other two do, plus the investment wing which acts as a hedge to those pesky loan loss reserves. And whatamess, you really think trump don't want the next stimulus check with his name on it? Plus any good news in the next couple of months from AZN should set cyclicals and value stocks straight.

I agree steve, perhaps this could hit low 90s. I recall last time BARC got to about 97 before rebounding to 110. I always buy in tranches anyway, so happy days if this does go to low 90s.

GLA, even you whatamess. You will need extra luck with your 55p prediction.
