Hit the 262's again. 10p down today alone. 19p down this week.

Lloyds down -1.5% but Santander down -3.65%

Dividend monies well spent for shareholders (not) ;-)

Although did you notice that Goldmans bought shedloads of shares for days just before the Chairwoman sold a bunch of hers. Then the following week after she had sold they hardly bought any at all. Insider trading / favouritism written all over that... FCA should take a close look at that! :-)

I don't pay anything through IG. Just my £3 trade commission per trade (£8 if you haven't done 3 trades the previous month)... change Broker as Halifax are really sh*t...


Goldman Sach's showing no support today. They really are terrible Brokers. CEO should sack them. Citi are much better and spend buybacks more efficiently. Citi drive up a company's share price which is what you expect when the Broker is spending your Dividend monies.

Goldman's try and get a few extra shares cheaper which means nothing compared to a higher share price for company value...

No it wasn't stamp duty it was the spanish government money grab tax that was introduced 2021

"Yes... great for trading as no taxes..."

Thats what I thought, but halfax just charged stamp duty, the F'rs, Barclays did this a few years ago

Yes... great for trading as no taxes...

Anyone know if santander is still stamp duty free in uk?

Looks like Goldman's have abandoned the so called buyback scheme. Down from 281 to 267.

Took a batch at 262.3 as looking cheap again. More interest rates rises coming soon...

[crazi] 13/1/2023 14:09

Hit 280 then the fallback to 274.5... traded that quickly again :-)

Goldman's only bought 850k shares over the past week. Hardly any.

Good side is there is still plenty of money left for buybacks and the share price has been rising recently with little support from Goldman's

I have a long term hold batch. The other buys and sales I do with a day trading batch of cash so don't really care what the price is with them. As long as each trade makes a profit - it's all good.

Want the price back up to 300 region though before I would sell the long term hold. Company is doing better now than last year with rising rates and low defaults so there's no reason to sell cheaper.

Thought we would FINALLY see 270 today after hitting 268.80 early this morning.

Bit you wish you still had the 2.37 purchase, sold too early?

[crazi] 03/1/2023 09:31

Lets see what the new year brings...

Goldman's not doing much at all today. It seems they only buy big when the chairwoman wants to sell her stock higher... 255.50 down to 251.50 lagging less than half behind other banks.

Friday 9th to Friday 16th closing prices shareholders lost -10p per share caused purely from Goldman Sachs fraudulent negative UT trades after closing each day. -10ppps is huge...

Using shareholders own dividend monies via the buyback scheme - Goldman's owe shareholders a good and proper "Santa Rally" this week! :-)

Fridays closing bid: 237.90 lets see how it goes...


Sold at 237.9 (bought 234.3) --- didn't get much support from Goldman's today -- only a spike to support Wall Street. Constant lower highs and lower lows.

You seem to have this down to a T!

[crazi] 14/12/2022 08:36

And there's that shake I was expecting from Goldman's before tomorrows interest rate hikes which should see banks rise over the next week. Bid closed at 240.70 last night and currently 236.7 --- 4p down

I'm loading up :-)

[crazi] 13/12/2022 14:11

Jumped back in at 240 and sold 10 minutes later at 242...

Could do this all day :-)

[my retirement fund] 13/12/2022 11:28

Likes primed for an upward thrust

[crazi] 13/12/2022 11:07

Banked 242.2 --- expecting a shake.

He seems very experienced...

Down again this morning. Bid closed 238.70 on Friday.

Thursday will have the EU, UK & USA all increasing their base rates by 0.5% at least. Another huge jump in NII / NIM profits for banks.

[crazi] 06/12/2022 09:06

Jumped back in this morning at 237.95 That was a wild opening again...

Banked 242 --- happy with that as only held for an hour...
