Barclays Share Discussion Threads

no increase in dividend again!!

based on their own 40% commitment it should have been 6.92% rather than 6.5%.

clearly they have held back for the interest fines etc, so why does AJ get a bonus and we don't !!

[dahhad] 03/3/2015 07:24

No miracles but sound progress being made IMO

Sins of the past continue to dog

An additional £750m has been set aside for forex settlements, bringing the total to £1.25bn. a further £200m provision has been made for PPI.

[marko1961] 03/3/2015 07:08

Smashed it 5.5billion. But where are the nastys bits

So now about time FTSE hit 7k....tomorrow would be ideal to coincide with Barc results....

[fjgooner] 02/3/2015 21:37

Great timing for BARC results. :)



US markets reach all-time highs

US stocks hit record levels, with both the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 closing at all-time highs and the Nasdaq breaking the 5,000 barrier for the first time in 15 years.

.......

and note this part:

On the Dow, finance group Visa led the way, climbing 2.5%.

I really wanted that Mars bar, it's not just the chocolate, it's the winning. It will take time but I'll get over it.
Well done Grandeur.
Good luck all tomorrow, let's be prepared to be surprised 👍👏😀

Thanks fjgooner, im for the competition remaining, its a nice and light hearted and does no harm, make a nice change from watching the ever stressful Barcs share price

[seccol] 02/3/2015 19:41

Ken it was tic but on a show of hands I feel I might just lose this one.

[fjgooner] 02/3/2015 19:14

Same here - well done grandeur.

[mattboxy] 02/3/2015 18:59

It's tradition I vote keep the comp. long live the comp!

[kenbachelor] 02/3/2015 18:28

Seccol - Before I started the competition this time, I posted a message asking whether I should do so. If you didn't want it, why didn't you say 'no'?

[manics] 02/3/2015 17:52

seccol: they are real. Just go to any store and check. Like young Charlie in Willy Wonka, you can look, but you can't touch.

[seccol] 02/3/2015 17:49

Can we please have a 3 year competition to stop the regular clogging of the thread.
The competition is a myth like the bloody mars bar;-)

[highball10] 02/3/2015 17:21

Ken, i am very gratful to yourself and the committee of which i hold in high esteem. I promise to check next time.and hope i dont have to appear infront of the committee.

[grandeur] 02/3/2015 17:18

Shocking!!!!!!!!!!!

[kenbachelor] 02/3/2015 17:08

Highball - Are you suggesting that I made a mistake and you didn't check your entry.

On this occasion I've called a meeting of the committee and they've authorised me to amend it, but on future occasions it must be the responsibility of the entrant to notify mistakes within 24 hours.

[waldron] 02/3/2015 17:03

chuckle well done grandeur

enjoy

[highball10] 02/3/2015 17:03

Sorry well done again. the price kept changing.

[grandeur] 02/3/2015 16:57

Well what can I say, the generosity of the prize has taken me aback, I shall be down to Tesco 1st thing.

Lets hope for a good rise in the share price tomorrow and that will be reward enough.

[kenbachelor] 02/3/2015 16:54

The uncrossing close was 262.75, so well done Grandeur and I hope you're not a diabetic. To claim your prize please visit your local Tesco supermarket and ask at the customer services desk, where they will tell you where to find the Mars Bars.

[grandeur] 02/3/2015 16:51

NOOOOOOOOO
