Pierre are you going to sell high 58s or do you feel 60s+ imminent?

Done very well with these recently, 3x40k buys since the buyback started to add to lots I had before which haven't performed so well. My biggest by value share delivering me not far off 10k tax free divis annualised (and that's what it's mainly all about). But need to rebalance by dumping one or two of the recent tranches. So many more to be bought back in the buyback I'll wait for a couple/several more months. Near completion, the buybacks may drive the price higher than the free market price

Starmer saying the right words atm, no need to fear what he does unless he's lying. He's local to us which used to be a deep Tory area. Hopefully he'll kill off the loony left tag by governing sensibly.

The other banks wont be helping so if can manage to do it, fair play. Going to be tough though. traders will exit low to mid. See if it causes anything

Samsmith I'll ask you once more & if you don't answer I'll just ignore you like everyone else on here.
Q1. How has anyone wasted their vote?
Q2. What would have been your preferred outcome.

I'm going out on me bike so you've got a good couple of hours to think about it!

[bulltradept] 05/7/2024 12:33

UT, you could be right regarding your analysis.

I'm surprised reform didn't get more votes, not sure what he or his party can do about that atm, apart from engage locally and people watch his performances in the house as you suggest.

Let's be fair, he gained a lot of traction from you tube when he was in the EU.

[utrickytrees] 05/7/2024 12:25

But you've still not answered the question Samsmith how has anyone wasted their vote? Can you elaborate pls? What would have been your preferred outcome for example?

3+ year high earlier @58.56p.

As golfers say.
It is matchplay not medal.

Safe to vote Reform knowing they will not win your seat.
Just a protest. Voters know it was a vote for Labour.
If it was PR voters would behave differently.
Low turnout because safe Labour seats are even safer. Why not stay at home and put your feet up.

What should we all have done differently SamSmith....dying to know?

[smurfy2001] 05/7/2024 11:22

Good for Lloyds a Labour win. Should spur more lending / housing.

[careful] 05/7/2024 11:10

turnout down about 10%.
Quite a few did not bother to vote this time.

A bigger turnout last time.
Keeping Corbyn out was important for many.
Getting Brexit done and controlling our borders was the issue for others.

Why were they disillusioned?
