hi yes thats the one I saw this morning , some of what he says does indeed resonate with our current position thanks
Stocksteady
as Aparma stated before we had 71 b shares and a SP of 85p so its possible , and would love to see it there again , but not sure it will get there in the near future , LBG is mainly focused on the UK retail market , not sure that would be enough to grow the company to a 50b plus market cap , share reduction would help imo, maybe the new CEO will give the black horse some wings and the bank moves into other areas to improve profits etc , I don't think being a housing landlord will be as fruitful as they would like , too many tenants know how to work the system as previously mentioned
@PSK
yes you're probably right , I guess thats the best we can expect , at least we have some dividends now , hopefully they will also improve in the fullness of time , Good luck
@PSK
yes thats my point PSK how can this share ever become 80p or 120p with so many shares in circulation , I think the next CEO would need to buy back a great many shares to improve the SP to be anywhere near what many posters would like , myself included GLA
PSK
thanks for that PSK , so do the LTH here believe thats a realistic market cap for LBG , or is it somewhere between the current MC and the possible MC at £1 , thanks GLA
hi all do we think that LBG market cap is valued at between £ 50/80 billion , am I right in thinking that a share price of 70/120 p would make LBG market cap at those numbers , just asking as I may be confused , happy for someone to point out to me if I am right or wrong , thanks , GLA
some really wild SP predictions today , I agree with some , but sub 100 not sure I see that , but hey what do I know , interesting few days ahead , GLA

you did not mention disliking the uk that is correct , but when you start calling people clowns for voting to leave the EU I did take exception to that , yes you are entititled to your opinion and I apologise if I was a bit harsh , but the EU has not covered itself in glory with the vaccine roll out and that will impact the UK , had they got the vaccine program sorted then they would have been on an equal footing with the UK and US and others , yet they decided to move slowly then delay then stop and finally restart the vaccine program from a position even further back than before , by doing so they have allowed the people to be endangered even further , where are the clowns really , in the UK ,no ,they are in control of the EU , for what its worth I am a euro citizen so its not that I take the British position totally all the time
johnbri
who gives a toss , lucky you being able to go to the canaries at all , as for clowns look at yourself for wanting to be a part of that bunch of clowns , they've ****ed up the vaccine program and that will have a knock on effect here by holding back the uk by default , if you dislike it here so much why not go live there and take citizenship , or is it you want to stay a brit so you can get the best of both worlds .
Hi all , I too see a fall back in the sp due to the negative news regarding holidays in Europe , and I know the US will open up before the EU , but not sure if going to the US , Israel and a few limited countries is enough for the IAG group , obviously the US opening up is great for BA , but BA is not the whole of IAG , therefore if the rest of IAG is not flying to a decent capacity any profits BA make on their flight will be negated by the rest of the group , this will be a temporary fall back imo so a chance to add on the possible fall back GLA

lol yes he did call 80p and 50p as did you , he also called RR 50p and lloyds 15p and yes iag did in fact touch 89p but it did not stay there , and he was still saying it was going back to 80p and sub 100p once vaccine news was being reported ,so please lets not hold him up as some sort of guru
unfortunately the vaccine problems the EU have with Astra Zeneca just goes to show how the EU feel about the UK , and does not auger well for future relations regarding , trade , business etc , I do not believe these views are shared with the general population in the EU , but I feel its the people in power in the EU

no need to apologise , you are entitled to your opinion whether or not people agree or not , besides its hardly decamping as some of the other people who have posted here in the past have done , if other posters on here don't like it , then tough don't worry about them
@Speedymeadie
hi I will be interested in one possibly two , what do you think the time frame would be ? GLA
betterup
I never asked for a cv, just for you to back up your claim with facts , I see you sidestepped the question , tells me all I need to know , you sure you're not a politician , or do alleged bankers do the same thing as politicians , no need to reply and no further questions
@Viking
I have not looked at the fixtures ahead so was not aware they had difficult games ahead , tbh all the games at the moment are hard because of the extra pressure of dropping out the league , I really hope the blues can do it , as I would like to take my boys there again , well at least GGP have a guaranteed great future , onwards and upwards , GLA
@Betterupthandown
you responded to hydro saying he clearly does not understand the repo market , and you say its normal for the things which are going now , does that mean you disagree with guy that spoke in the link that hydro posted too , and if so do you have any info to back up your claim, furthermore if you really are a banker are you not part of the system which which other posters here are talking about regarding manipulation etc in the banking industry , just asking as I am not very clued up on this stuff so trying to understand
@viking / speedie yes I agree on both counts , the club is like a hobby only to the bod now , and yes need a few more clubs dragged into the mix , I lseeonly Mansfield and port vale as only ones getting dragged in now , at least we know GGP will be going up ------- in price that is GLA
@viking
lol don't think we will escape this time , hope the manage it but , it will be a monumental achievement if they do
I wanted to share something about bank stocks between here and USA , I own shares in BAC ,I bought them last year when the market crashed for around $21 , they've gone up in value for sure and I get dividends ,I got my last one in December I looked at the amount I received, and I just worked out that my next dividend payment from lloyds and its bigger than that from BAC , yet my shares in lloyds cost less than a quarter of the ones in BAC , considering the paltry lloyds divi I was surprised and am hopeful for the future , for clarification I am lucky that my average is low thirties as I only bought last year , obviously LTH are not so lucky and I feel sorry for them , this is not a ramp, just wanted to share my view , GLA
