We have determined the proper motion (p.m.) of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) relative to four background quasi-stellar objects, combining data from two previous studies made by our group, and new observations carried out in up to three epochs not included the original investigations. Our new p.m. value indicates that the LMC is not a member of a proposed stream of galaxies with similar orbits around our galaxy.
