Lloyds Banking Group plc Notification of transaction by persons discharging managerial responsibilities On 2nd July, 2009, following the Placing and Compensatory Open Offer (the "Offer") announced on 20 May 2009, conditional awards in respect of ordinary shares of 25p each in Lloyds Banking Group plc ("Shares") held by the individuals set out below under the Lloyds TSB long-term incentive plan (LTIP) were adjusted. We disclosed in the Prospectus for the Offer, published on 20 May 2009, that options and awards under the Lloyds Banking Group Employee Share Plans might be adjusted to take into account the Offer. Colleagues were generally permitted to participate in the Offer with respect to their private shareholdings. However, they were not eligible to participate with respect to active employee share plans (such as the LTIP and nil cost options) that gave them a future right to acquire shares. Because the Offer was at a discount to current market value, this resulted in a dilution of the value of those share awards. These adjustments restore the value of potential awards and ensure that they are not adversely affected by the Offer. The details of the adjusted awards are set out below. No other changes to the terms of the awards, which are subject to stretching performance criteria over a three year period, have been made.
In addition, a nil-cost option held by Mr. M.A. Fisher under the Lloyds TSB Group executive share plan 2003 was also adjusted on 2nd July, 2009 in order to keep its value whole and to ensure that it is not adversely affected by the Offer. This nil-cost option was granted on 11th March, 2009 in respect of 984,251 Shares. The adjusted number of Shares is 1,288,933. No other changes to the terms of this option have been made. This notification relates to a transaction notified to Lloyds Banking Group plc yesterday in accordance with paragraph 3.1.4 (1)(a) of the Financial Services Authority's disclosure and transparency rules. The transaction took place in the UK and the shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Onceabroker,
Many thanks for your thought-provoking views on this. Without knocking any other contributors (whom I read also), it's always most useful to read more well-considered, intelligently-put comments, as yours are, on such issues, as I'm sure many others will agree. I generally agree with many of your points & only add these as a few examples of why I have growing doubts about LBG, super-bank with already enormous toxic debts: 1). Indeed, but unprecedented borrowing will in time have to be paid back. This means much higher taxation, probably for years, along with increasing inflation & interest rates. Collectively this will impact on all our spending ability & may cause any solid recovery from recession to take longer than previously. 2). Said "quicker recovery" is a distinct possibility for the reasons you state, but bear in mind that the World Bank expects the global economic recession to deepen further this year. Whilst OECD recently forecast that, even if there's a global recovery next year, the UK economy is likely to see NO growth, but at best a plateau: http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/jun/24/oecd-world-recession-uk-forecast 3). Good points about some essential differences between Japan & economies of the West. Bear in mind though that property inflation got nowhere near as bad throughout Europe & the US as it did in the UK. So presumably, we have much further to fall & probably a longer recovery time. 4). Recovery in the US will be fundamental, but the jury is out on the time-scale. Below is an informative, reasonably objective article about projected time-scale of US recovery, the possibilities of this being (another) protracted bear market i& that their recession may not bottom out for up to another 10-20 months (though the stock markets may start a consistent recovery some 6 months sooner): http://www.moneymorning.com/2009/06/06/economic-recovery-report/ The dividend potential is key to any major SP recovery. LLOYDS still owes some £14.7 billion to the tax payer. Until this enormous sum is paid off, I can't see how they can even announce any approximate time-scale for divi payments (hence why they don't). To see this sum in context, remember in 2008 LLOYDS made £1.9 billion profit. This year LLOYDS will make huge losses & suffer 50% MORE writedowns than 2008. Then there's the APS question, depending on how bad the HBOS toxic debt may get. Overall, IMO, a fairly grim picture, even when weighed up against all the potential positives. Hence, I'm relatively bearish about this (not to the N degree though). Have also, I think, learnt an important lesson about the dangers of allowing oneself to be swept along by tides of enthusiastic optimism, without further analysis of the bigger picture. It's a price that I suspect many relatively-new traders pay. Quite agree about SP probably being about right, but that we may be be out of this range soon for said reasons - an important factor to my future strategy.

It's interesting reading everyones investment strategies.
The problem with stop losses I've found is that the Market Makers know they are there and swing the price around to flush them out. So they'll move a share down 10% then move it up again hence flushing out the stop loss trades and encouraging buyers at the cheaper price. I also experimented with a logical portfolio spreading £1,000 across 10 companies as a strategy to spread risk. Some went up and some went down. One share tripled in price while another dropped by a third. The value of the portfolio started at £10,000 and when I last looked was worth a mighty ......£10,000. My strategy generally is to invest heavily in very few shares (2,3 or 4) which I am confident will be ok. I also speculate in one or two companies with small amounts of money but watch very closely. That way you have the time and bandwidth to keep a very close eye on them. Bottom line is as you say, reward reflects the risks you take. But the more risks you take the closer you need to watch your investments. Personally I don't like automated controls to do this as they always seem to sell when you don't want them to. I am heavily invested in Lloyds and RBS at present but very much think it is 12 months before they will start showing strong returns. So if you can wait that long then I'm pretty sure you'll do well. As someone said below, it will be a long time before you can buy so many shares in such quality companies at such a low price. Good luck More | View thread (16) | Respond | Login to Vote up | Login to Vote down |

There are far too many entries on this BB, a very high percentage completely unnecessary. It has become boring, so much so I only read those on the current page and never refer to previous.
Can I suggest all restrict their messages to items that are meaningful ? More | View thread (1) | Respond | Login to Vote up | Login to Vote down |

I would not suggest you puting all your investment in one industry (banking), even though both RBS and Lloyds look very attractive long term. Try to diversify it between different fields - IT, Oil, Banking and so on.
