Sold out far too early yesterday...busy with other things so missed most of rise, blast it !.

Cheers partridge , would that 10p be just the final divi or total divi ?

Dil - If they really do have the situation under control, hope that with finals next week a reference to possible interim dividend payable next October (final for this year already scrapped). Doubt any figure put on it, but I would be (pleasantly) surprised if they paid more than 10p for the whole of 2009

Cheers partridge .

Time to sell now fellas.

Hi ya what date is the divi and what date do you have to own them, and the earliest you can sell Thanks

No dividend yet announced - and earliest possible date would be October 2009 in respect of results to end June 2009. That is by no means a certainty!

thanks for that

Not quite the explosive rise maestro was hoping for never mind its bound to go up tomorrow.

sold out at 98p..buy back in the morning

How about todays explosion mitzy?

Hmmm trying hard to stay above a quid.

Royal Bank of Scotland +44%, HSBC +9.7% and Barclays +19%. Lloyds Banking Group +50% after Citigroup raises the bank's rating to buy. Standard Life +7.8%, as investors welcome the group's upbeat trading statement.

Sure it's good to hear something positive (for a change), but even if BARC is 100% correct what we are being told (long after the event) that in 2008 they made a lot of money.

Well, so what?

If they hadn't, it could only be due to uninsured Bank Robberies, as this was a time of unwinding booming deals and provided they didn't do it too quickly, there was an Accountant's profit somewhere.

But with BARC taking on Arab interest-rates and few spending on Barclaycard - just where is the next years profit comming from...( Psst, what a Mortgagfe - er, not just now, mate),
Er, so where will their profits come from?

So I expect this furry for Bank-Shares to end soon enough.......and as many UK-Banks are in hoc to the UK Government, there won't be a big Dividend....Oh deary.

hangon your credibility (if you had any) reaches an all time low.

Profit 5,287 final dividend 11.5p

Final results part 1
Final results part 2

rubbish divi will commence second half of 09........get some glasses skinny!

Broken resistance at 110

120 looks more than possible (to-day)

Results going down well, even pulled lloy past 110 against a flat market.
