75000 shares only a small holding ?! I suppose it's all relative.
btw now we all know how much money you have as well as who you'll be voting for ! By heyrevolver ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:LLOY.L&display=discussion&id=6106447&action=detail Sat, 20 Mar 2010 13:42:00 GMT heyrevolver tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.6106441
They are terrified if HMG starts to show a profit prior to the election.

He talks about a levy to get back every penny of the bail out.

This doesn't make sense. The bail out deal already includes the provision that the banks will have to pay back every penny - and with penalties.

I am hoping that Cameron's statement will have the opposite effect on the SP.

If Cameron is moving to dampen the SPs, then he must too be convinced that RBS and Lloyds are in full recovery mode.

Sometimes the City does the opposite of what you think.

You certainly wouldn't invest in any company that ran a business like these numptys!

Any money that is legally extorted from banks under the pretext of taxation will leave shareholders decimated , we the shareholders own the banks , Lloyds has 3 million PI holders and that would be a tax on every one of them

And worse still these fools are going to succeed in doing what the financial global crisis failed to do

They will destoy the UKs leading industry which already pays tens of billions in taxes each year and drive it away from British shore in what will be one of the most historically damaging acts since time immemorial , costing tens of thousands of jobs and billions in lost revenue as they strive to drive Britain back to the middle ages

It makes me hark back to when the last tory party took us to the brink , When Major and Lamont oversaw the disaster of what was the ERM debacle that cost the country billions and interest rates were bumped up to 15 percent to save the pound

Buy hey they look competent compared to this bunch

These tories look to me like a football team who have never kicked a ball , how are former Etonians ever going to connect and ground to ordinary people ?

The answer is they never will , their upbringing serves as a handicap , a disability even , when you spend your whole existence in an ivory tower you re never going to adjust to the reality of how the world really is and make a connection with ordinary people

Normally the vast majority of people on these boards would be considered to be inclined to vote Tory , they'd be considered to be the bedrock of Tory support , but i dont think thats the case now

The news that Lloyds will make a profit in 2010 was a boost for the whole of the UK , GB will make a killing on these shares when he sells them in a couple of years , but thats only if the Tories dont get into power and wreak disaster upon disaster on Britain

Lets hope sanity prevails and this awful clueless Tory party are consigned to the political dustbin because this is the most dangerous potentail government i have ever come across

lol - a tax on oxygen would present a human rights issue...unless of course they changed the law By Melo-the-Miser ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:LLOY.L&display=discussion&id=6105997&action=detail Sat, 20 Mar 2010 10:18:00 GMT Melo-the-Miser tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.6105972
That was the precise answer I was lookig for. Thank you!

So if we assume things are healthier now than they were then, which they are, both in the economy and in the merged business, then there is some upside in the share price. A recovering economy will reward banks and commodities quickest I believe and with Lloyds SO BIG they should benefit most in retail banking. Allow for Lloyds selling some assets and removing risk in favour of discounted cash receipt, then it all looks a lot less uncertain and much much healthier

there is an update on the 27th April, the US will go positive will employement on Non Farm Pay Rolls in 2 weeks so I hope there is some good upside to Lloyds in the next 4-8 weeks. After that is anyones guess By investingisatrickygame ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:LLOY.L&display=discussion&id=6105972&action=detail Sat, 20 Mar 2010 10:05:00 GMT investingisatrickygame tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.6105971 By teepeg ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:LLOY.L&display=discussion&id=6105971&action=detail Sat, 20 Mar 2010 10:05:00 GMT teepeg tag:iii.co.uk,2003:tst.6105956
We see risks to the UK domestic banks as the UK monetary authorities withdraw assistance in 2010, but we believe the valuations of the
domestic stocks discount these fears and provide sufficient incentive for an overweight. By BlackLavender ]]> http://www.iii.co.uk/investment/detail?code=cotn:LLOY.L&display=discussion&id=6105956&action=detail Sat, 20 Mar 2010 09:56:00 GMT BlackLavender
