Looking good through March. Ex-divi on 4th April ... we may see a slight dip after. When share price is over 10k im a happy investor.

A fantasy company at a fair price
A recent share price dip offers an excellent opportunity to hop on this quality stock

I am an investor outside the UK and have to pay a healthy amount of stamp duty to buy new shares, and meanwhile people here are buying and selling within the same day :\

@daijavu, what dividend was just announced? There is nothing on the GAW investor relations site.

First View: A Softer Q2 (Jefferies)ConclusionNews. Games Workshop has reported a markedly slower Q2 trend, with H1 revenue 'not less than £235m' (+11%) and H1 PBT 'not less than £94m' (+12%). This implies Q2 revenue growth of +7% (Q1 +14%) and Q2 PBT -17% (Q1 +46%). A chunk of this decline was driven by the more volatile Licensing income line, but we estimate Q2 core operating profit was still c.-8% (Q1 +42%). Management notes that this outcome is 'in line with expectations'.Views. We are surprised by the extent of the slowdown in Q2, even if we had anticipated a step back given the fading Leviathan benefit, tougher comps and moderating external data (see here). We suspect this largely reflects a pull-forward of demand into the extremely successful 40k 10th Edition launch earlier in the year, and would view the H1 run-rate as a sensible read on the overall trajectory. However, with upgrades widely anticipated, we suspect today's update will disappoint some investors.

Sharply rising yields make bonds an attractive alternative for investors.

It is very common for the share price of any company to fall on XD day and then keep falling for a short while afterwards. It is because some investors will buy for the divi and then sell once they have secured their entitlement it it.

I suppose one answer is to wait until after the XD date and then hope to buy at a possible lower price a short while after. The down side is that you miss out on the divi.

I recall a long-term chart that showed the correlation between the new 40k editions and the share price. It was good for investors.

from Citywire
Downing believes Games Workshop is worth waiting for
Patient investors in Games Workshop (GAW) have been rewarded and will continue to be as the fantasy hobby chain monetises its intellectual property, says Downing’s Rosemary Banyard.

The Citywire A-rated manager, who holds the stock in her £48m VT Downing Unique Opportunities fund, flagged its 17-fold revenue increase over the 28 years since floating in 1994 and the £449m it has paid out in dividends.

However, Banyard noted the ‘net share count has only risen by 13% in 28 years’, it has not made an acquisition in 20 years and is not planning any buybacks or acquisitions.

‘Shareholders can reasonably expect a lot more dividends in future and it is worth noting that the most recent dividend declaration at 130p per share is more than the entire 115p original listing price of the shares, and that in recent years the company has made five dividend declarations per year,’ she said.

Its recent success has ‘reflected greater monetisation of the group’s intellectual property and the success of one-man stores under a dynamic new – albeit home-grown – chief executive.’

‘The greatest rewards to shareholders so far have also come in the past five years, highlighting that patience has been advisable to maximise returns,’ Banyard said.

Shares in Games Workshop rose 0.2%, or 15p, to £93.95 on Wednesday.

"Aren't all trades both a buy and a sell"

Depends what you mean and which market you are dealing with.

If you mean a sale and a buy between investors on a market maker share then the answer is 'no'

The market maker job is to facilitate trading and they do that by holding shares on their books aka 'inventory'. Within the market makers world they have compliance limitations on how much or how little shares they are holding at any one time. When this gets toward those limits then that is often when you hear retail investors whining about 'tree shakes' and the like.

LSE SETSqx that also have market makers (not all do) also have periodic electronic auction book, with standalone non-electronic quote-driven market making. Market makers are not obliged to trade during these periods and so most trades are accomplished between individuals which is why you sometimes see the final trade of the day being a "UT" trade which may be several percent higher or lower than the final trade with a market maker and hence should be entirely ignored. These final UT trades are a wrap up of two or more investor trades and hence when a large number of shares are reported it is in fact an amalgamation of numerous investors wrapped up in a total number of shares traded.
