Re: HSBC (HSBA)
I thought the main news would be the announcement departure of the CEO (John Flint)?

Re: HSBC (HSBA)
I agree monabri and have just posted that on the HYP P Board. Once again I do not understand why we have two Boards. I am concerned about the abrupt departure of John Flint. Indicates a fall out, maybe with Mark Tucker and remember he is the first outside chairman ever to have been appointed by HSBC. I feel very uncomfortable about the departure. Most unlike HSBC. I think shareholders are entitled to know a bit more.

I would regard that as good news. They buy back shares every year to cover the amount issued as scrip dividend but this appears to be quite separate and might be a precursor to increasing the dividend again, maybe next year?

I agree Dod, and have the same hope as you regarding the dividend.

Re: HSBC (HSBA)
I would prefer they got the dividend cover back to near 2 times before increasing it. Banks need to be prudent!

I am confused. We had an announcement of their Interim Results on 5 August. Why are they reannouncing them? This is not news I suspect. This is a PDF of the printed Interim Report. Nothing new here Ian.

Fair enough Dod, thanks. If so, sorry for the confusion caused for readers, and the waste of 20 mins of my life bothering to post it.

Re: HSBC (HSBA)
My thanks to you both. As for HSBC, I’m sorely tempted to buy more of their shares. Amazingly, and surprisingly, I’m almost underwater in capital returns on my holdings of this share! I bought it for the dividend though, so I shall continue to hold, as I should.

HSBC to axe up to 10,000 jobs in cost-cutting drive
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... g-drive-ft
HSBC Holdings Plc may eliminate as many as 10,000 jobs as part of a cost-cutting drive, according to a Financial Times report that signaled Europe may bear the brunt of the initiative.
The plan would result in a substantial reduction in HSBC’s workforce of about 238,000, the FT said, citing two people briefed on the matter. The bank, one of several European lenders eliminating roles, is questioning why it has so many people in the region when it has double-digit returns in parts of Asia, one of the people told the newspaper.

Re: HSBC (HSBA)
How on earth can a bank or any other business get rid of 10,000 staff without it effecting the everyday running of the company and if they can why didn't the management notice they were massively overstaffed some time ago and started cutting back much earlier, surly somebody at the top didn’t just wake up one morning and notice they had 10,000 staff more than they need

This morning's newspaper is speculating that they will sell their French retail business which will account for a large part of the reduction. This is not simply removing a layer of management; it has to be down to selling entire businesses. Let's not prejudge this and anyway it may not even happen.
