Let's all have a Great Christmas and a BBC Licence Free New Year. The Brussels Broadcasting Corporation, (formerly BBC News Channel), TV licence will set you back £154.50 over a year.https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=no+license+tv&view=detail&mid=B446B64FE5A5963E3A49B446B64FE5A5963E3A49&FORM=VIRE&PC=MOZB

Big holders like Blackrock will be making a fortune trading their holdings up and down and making 10% either way, so we will be going nowhere fast here and other UK bank stocks behaving the same way imo.

Instead of a buyback I'd like to see a special dividend played to shareholders who kept their shares for the entire year, a sort of loyalty bonus.

Oh dear, what are they worried about? They won't listen, they haven't listened and they will continue to put their fingers in their ears because there can be no deviation from the vision. They did not believe we would leave, they were told we would not leave by those that knew best. It might be time to start listening our European friends. I rename this European ship, "TITANIC!

Graham, i was thinking hadrian's wall would go north of all the ski resorts and highlands. Lerwick should be suitable as the border between the n and s scotland.

The Germans are hurting from a slowdown of their own making. Merkel is now as unpopular in Germany as Macron is in France.

We are lucky to be out.

Happy Xmas all.

wendsworth - you are probably right. I'm holding fire until I see a big adjustment and possibly not even then. However the trend is still upwards and in this market you never know what is going to surface to drive the market in lloy.
The market likes the noises Boris is making. There may be a 'Trump effect' which overrides the Brexit uncertainty...who knows.
The market ,as a whole, is under valued and there is plenty of upside room.
Sterling needs to stay around $1.29c - $1.30c for the upside trend to continue in my opinion. There is always the very likely scenario that the market trades sideways.
Though I didn't vote for Boris because the 'deal' he negotiated was not good for the U.K but suspected that was only done to save his party from being slaughtered in the general election. The Real Deal ,I believe, is yet to come and as Boris is a 'Thrifty' chap it's going to be a much better deal for the U.K in terms of Ransom payments to the E.U.
How it will effect the U.K financial institutions is another matter. All my own idle musings over a xmas sherry.
Good Luck.

It seems that there is a lot of flack coming from Germany & France directed at how we British were lied to.

It is a bit late for Germany & France to come up with this old chestnut. The fact is, both Germany & France never thought that the UK would vote out of Europe, it was never going to happen. Just like the Boris landslide, the elites haven't a clue as to how ordinary folk think.

They sit back and tell us what's good for us, it happened exactly the same in the USA with Trump, the elites making gross misjudgements about the electorate. All is not well in France, Italy, Germany and many of Europe's 27, but they still fail to see!

Europe failed to see how the UK had changed. Free movement, Blair's 30,000 East Europeans that turned to mass immigration and still they tell us that as many as 10 million extra people, weren't responsible for a rise in welfare, the NHS, services etc.

European dictats and red tape wasn't working in the UK, however when Cameron went to them in January 2016, they ignored Cameron's warnings. I speak as a Remain voter who changed when I saw just how intransigent Brussels had become, their way or the highway.

Isn't it a bit rich to say that Johnson is a liar, Brussels haven't stopped telling lies.

That solution won't answer, Pierre. More likely the Highlands and Islands would want to remain with England, anyway in preference to the workshy socialists of the central belt.
