Unfortunately I hold quite a lot of LLOY whereas I only have RBS on a recent S/B.

I'm pretty disappointed in both LLOY and RBS share prices.

I really never thought I'd see LLOY down here again. It was 62.x yesterday or the day before and given the support from the dividend yield and share buyback I was really surprised.

I can't be bothered to look at the chart as it will pain me but we were up at 80 a couple of years ago and since then the bank has made good progress.

More surprisingly when it did hit 62.x I didn't buy any more as I went for MARS instead which is giving me 7.8% dividend and I think more upside on a two year time horizon. which is probably all you need to know about UK shares. Everything is undervalued.

I am now back to 99.5% fully invested and have no more cash until I get some more dividends. There's nothing I want to sell either.

Lots of stuff still looks crazy cheap to me but it ain't just LLOY and RBS. i've been thinking that for the last 2 years though.

Morning all

Good morning!

Morning!

Daily Briefing: G7 - and then there were six

I find myself the proud (?) owner of some more LLOY CFD's at 62.99 Gulp

I have traded LLoy. since 2013, and looking back, have about a 10% yearly return.

Unfortunately, bought SBs and shares again 57.5 and 68, expecting 75-78p.

But, the more I look at its yoyo price changes and response to market news beginning to wish I had bet on something else.

Continuing to hold for time being.

Disappointing.
