- Summary:
- Lloyds share price looks set to target the 48p price mark after the S&P Global Ratings agency upgraded the stock from negative to stable.
Lloyds share price has begun a gradual recovery after the S&P Global Ratings agency upgraded the outlook of Lloyds Bank and several other UK and European banks. The outlook of Lloyds Bank, Natwest and two other UK banks has been revised from negative to stable.
The S&P Global Ratings agency based its upgrade on the expectation of a 7% growth in the UK economy, with bank earnings expected to benefit from exclusions of loan-loss provisions for H2 2021. The S&P Global Ratings agency further opined that the asset quality of the four banks is expected to remain robust.
