Do we have a fixed date for the announcement?

[jsforum] 21/1/2021 19:31

They'll announce how conservative the dividend will be next month - considering weve been starved for months 20p shouldn't be too much to expect- it should help the share price too

HSBC to axe 82 UK branches, cut services in others HSBC plans to axe 82 branches in Britain this year after a drop in footfall across its retail network and a surge in digital banking, the bank said on Tuesday. A spokesman for HSBC said the bank would aim to redeploy affected staff to nearby branches where possible, adding that customers would see the removal of counter services in some of the retained branches. The COVID-19 pandemic has dented bank finances, putting pressure on lenders to cut costs, while more customers have opted to bank online after being encouraged to stay at home to combat the spread of the virus. HSBC said it had begun trials of different branch formats and decided to provide fewer full-service branches in large cities and towns while others focus on providing cash and self-service technology. hTTps://www.hl.co.uk/news/2021/1/20/hsbc-to-axe-82-uk-branches-cut-services-in-others

Just to underpin the total disconnect from other Indices, the UK Market was at a higher level in November 1999 than now! The US is up 169% from that date.... Following that trend, the FT100 would be pushing 18000! spud

Down from 51 cents to 22 cents. Thats quite a drop and way below my f/cast of 41 cents. spud

JP Morgan quarter earnings out today before US market open. Last quarter beat expectations. Could provide a lift to the banking sector this afternoon.

Added more earlier this morning. Happy to stay in for the ride North here. Patience needed for maximum profit.

I'd hope before April - much needed in HK

[luke141] 06/1/2021 18:26

Hey GeckotheGlorious - Well said mate. Hope you did very well with STANCHART and HSBC today. Looking Good.

Is there a correlation between the number of protesters arrested in Hong Kong and the share price?

[coopstock] 06/1/2021 15:57

is there any indication when they will decide on restarting dividends? That would really put the burners on.

[imastu pidgitaswell] 06/1/2021 15:40

Not been too many days when this rises 10%+... :-)

[geckotheglorious] 06/1/2021 12:10

Gale, I share your sentiments in post 9783. Sad day for Hong Kong - Taiwan likely next if no one does anything. A world with Communist China as global policeman will not be a pleasant place for many - life is "cheap" in China, they care not about their own people so they care even less for gwailos, and the rest of humanity. Their treatment of animals is even worse. HSBC is between a rock and a hard place yes.. More likely to be bought out (after excessive Chinese regulation has given domestic competitors an even more unfair advantage) Look to Singapore in my view. And Japan. Beijing Biden will not stand up for the Taiwanese. And once Taiwan falls, Chinese attention will turn to the rest of the Pacific,and Japan. But Orange man bad is the real problem for so many fools out there!!! :)

"wageslave Post 9782 "Freedom? Trump was an authoritarian in all but name" How so? Did he, or did he not, let State Governors do their own thing both Covid time, but also policy wise generally? Did Trump allow state governors and mayors to police their own riots or did he send in the National Guard straight away?? Clue it was the former. Anything but authoritarian you'll find. But keep up the TDS!!!

[galeforce1] 06/1/2021 11:52

Gecko - I should have said 'less confrontational policy' towards China. I completely agree with you that there is much to fear and dislike in the Chinese model and it's important to treasure the intellectual freedoms we enjoy in the West. It's very sad to see how the CCP has imposed its will on HK in the last couple of years. But it was surely inevitable. To be honest I'm amazed that HK's autonomy lasted as long as it did. What is the future for HSBC? That's the interesting question. My guess is that it will be bought by a one of the big Chinese banks, like ICBC. The same will happen with Standard Chartered. It just doesn't make a lot of sense having a huge Asian bank with an HQ in London.

Freedom? Trump was an authoritarian in all but name.
