Lloyds Banking Share Discussion Threads

Worth a reminder for some posters that it is the UK leaving the trading bloc - not the EU27 who is leaving.

I still expect some 'skinny' deal; a new meeting date has been pencilled in for 28/12 so it could really go to the wire. GBP continues to be supported and climb. (Bullish GBP positions all remain open).

A skinny deal also supportive to Lloy and bullish positions in the Ords plus Pref holding also remain.

Lombard: Investors should fear the fantastical float valuation of veterinary services company IVC Evidensia. If IVC arrives on the market anywhere close to its mooted valuation, investors are being served a dog’s dinner.



Do we ever get anything else from today's IPOs?

General Motors plans to launch 30 all-electric models worldwide by 2025 at “all price points”, the company said on Thursday. GM plans to invest $27bn in electric vehicles by 2025, up from the $20bn it announced in March. It is also accelerating the rollout of existing electric models, including the GMC Hummer and Cadillac Lyriq. Unlike rivals Ford or Toyota, GM is not pursuing intermediary technologies such as hybrid or plug-in hybrid vehicles. - FT



It's going to get more interesting for Tesla shareholders and fun to watch for those that know better.

READ: Lloyds and its banking rivals have plenty of capital but will dividends return soon?


Some of the big lenders in the UK, along with peers in Spain, Holland and France, are trading even bigger P/E discounts.

“This reflects uncertainty about their ability to generate earnings amid the COVID-19 crisis, and their ability to pay dividends on those earnings,” analysts at the Swiss bank said in a note to clients on Tuesday.

If a successful vaccine comes to market and leads to a normalisation of asset quality and to dividend payouts, the analysts said Lloyds had the biggest potential re-rating upside based on normalised P/E.

The Bank of England, along with other European regulators, will provide an update on their dividend bans in December.

"we are the Catholics hiding in Priest holes and attics,and really running things"

If you were really running things do you think you would need to hide away in a Priest hole?

ROFLMAO!

LEVIS Politics is now plans,plans , plans

Covid was the same projections,projections ,projections.

a nation of muppets but the clever middle class will be able to dodge it all

This is the same as Elizabethan times .. we are the Catholics hiding in Priest holes and attics,and really running things, while the chavs are C of E..
Nothing changes much in England does it.?

I don't trust Johnson. He's desperate and full of "new plans" for the UK but NEVER links his speeches to ....A fresh start for the United Kingdom come 1st January 2021 as a SOVERIGN NATION, free from unwarranted INTERFERENCE, free to make our own LAWS, free to fish in our own WATERS, free from a establishment who seek to use the people of the UNITED KINGDOM as a dumping ground for EU27 bloc over production.

Our great British Farmers could get back to over producing and export instead of tied to EU quota to milk cows, EU quota to produce potatoes, grain, set aside land not to produce food. British livestock sheds are empty !! The dairy industry is in tatters at the expense of grants going to Germany and Poland.

Get grip Johnson....you are not slithering away and playing the electorate anymore.
Put your toy London buses away and man up to the job !!!

LEAVE ....WTO rules

US election 2020: Biden wins Georgia recount as Trump setbacks mount

[minerve 2] 20/11/2020 09:55

What has Farage got to do with anything anyway?

Biden win has made the numpty irrelevant. I wish certain press would not entertain the chimp's ego.

Even Lagarde is pushing for "livelihoods" to be targeted in Europe.

The Great and the Good have realised that if they dont do something soon they themselves will be on the wrong end of class action law suits .

and GS has told them to put the economy back as it was

Nothing whatever to do with a vaccine.

All very bullish for LLoyds the best positioned stock in the FTSE for a spectacular UK recovery.

[dr biotech] 20/11/2020 09:51

Still taking Chloroquinine LB? How is the GS conspiracy theory coming along that you espouse? And your neighbour who changes from a doctor/banker/lawyer/UFO pilot everytime you seem to want to backup your crackpot theories.

Show us the evidence of mass fraud. There simply isn't any. And before you look at the russian funded zero hedge with its anonymous authors or youtube, try looking up the theory to see if its already been debunked. Probably better than sitting at home, searching for evidence to back up your delusions and raise your blood pressure.

The LEFT are always the same

"Leftists Suggest "Re-Education Camps", "Firing Squads", & Banning Talk Radio To "Deprogram" 75 Million Trump Supporters"

"So the right telling remainers to accept the vote but not accepting that Trump lost is not hypocrisy?"


Time since Brexit vote? 4.5years.
Any ballot/voting fraud?

Time since US election - 2 weeks.
Plenty of evidence of ballot fraud and dodgy activities.

Not surprised you cant see the difference.

Only hypocrites round here are those who spent 4.5 years denying and refusing to accept the Brexit vote(and the GE17 vote, and the European Elections in 2019, and the GE19) but think the US election should be respected straight away,regardless of the fraudulently voting!!!

"Covid mass hysteria over" will only last until it mutates and the current generation of vaccines cease to be effective.

[mr.elbee] 20/11/2020 09:39

the media cannot be taken seriously .. nor can you..you are on the dark side and now filtered

So the right telling remainers to accept the vote but not accepting that Trump lost is not hypocrisy?

I think the games is over for Trump. Even Tucker Carlson had this to say - remember just before the election Carlson reckoned he had a killer document on Hunter Biden but that got lost in the post - and no-one had taken a photo/scan before they sent it. Right up there with the dog ate my homework. So he's not afraid to BS to further his cause. But now he says

All of which brings us to the bombshell at the center of today's press conference that was delivered by Powell, who also serves as Gen. Mike Flynn's lawyer. For more than a week, Powell has been all over conservative media with the following story: This election was stolen by a collection of international leftists who manipulated vote tabulating software in order to flip millions of votes from Donald Trump to Joe Biden. The o"ther day on television, Powell said of Trump that when the fraud is finally uncovered, I think we'll find he had at least 80 million votes." In other words, rigged software stole about seven million votes in this election.

On Sunday night, "Tucker Carlson Tonight" texted her after watching one of her segments. What Powell was describing would amount to the single greatest crime in American history. Millions of votes stolen in a day, democracy destroyed, the end of our centuries-old system of self-government. Not a small thing.

Now, to be perfectly clear, we did not dismiss any of it. We don't dismiss anything anymore, particularly when it's related to technology. We've talked to too many Silicon Valley whistleblowers and we've seen too much after four years on the air. We literally do UFO segments, not because we're crazy or even been interested in the subject, but because there is evidence that UFOs are real and everyone lies about it.

There's evidence that a lot of things that responsible people dismiss out of hand as ridiculous are in fact real. The louder the Yale political science department and the staff of The Atlantic magazine scream "conspiracy theory," the more interested we tend to be. That's usually a sign you're over the target. A lot of people with impressive-sounding credentials in this country are frauds. They have no idea what they're doing. They're children posing as authorities. And when they're caught, they lie and then they blame you for it. We see that every day. It's the central theme of our show and will continue to be.



So that's a long way of saying we took Sidney Powell seriously with no intention of fighting with her. We've always respected her work, we simply wanted to see the details. How could you not want to see them? So we invited Sydney Powell on the show. We would have given her the whole hour. We would have given her the entire week, actually, and listened quietly the whole time at rapt attention.

But she never sent us any evidence, despite a lot of polite requests. When we kept pressing, she got angry and told us to stop contacting her. When we checked with others around the Trump campaign, people in positions of authority, they also told us Powell had never given them any evidence to prove anything she claimed today at the press conference.

Powell did say that electronic voting is dangerous, and she's right, but she never demonstrated that a single actual vote was moved illegitimately by software from one candidate to another. Not one.

Why are we telling you this? We're telling you this because it's true, and in the end, that's all that matters. The truth is our only hope and our best defense. It's how we're different from them: We care what's true and we know you care, too. Maybe Sidney Powell will come forward soon with details on exactly how this happened and precisely who did it. We are certainly hopeful that she will. What happened with the vote counting this month and at the polling places in Detroit and the polling places in Philadelphia and so much else actually matters. It matters no matter who you voted for.

Whether or not you think this election is already over, until we know the answers to those questions conclusively and we can agree on them, this country will not be united.

Of course its also worth noting that the manual vote in Georgia matched the machine count.

Also the Trump campaign has promoted so many lies and debunked theories now that the media are not going to take them seriously any more. The "patriot" postal worker, the dead people that are still alive, the additional votes that added from an incorrect tweet. If you want to search the web all day for conspiracy theories I'm sure you'll find enough evidence to convince yourself they are real.
