Skinny, the ONLY way any pension reform would be welcomed by the finance industry is if the financial industry makes more money from the reforms. Whether pension punters make more or lose more due to those reforms is completely irrelevant.

Maybe for smaller pensions or for those who fall under the Inheritance Tax Threshold.

I would be surprised if Labour don't count your pension pot as part of your IHT amount. It's an easy pick and would affect the more affluent with large pension pots that have a defined amount. Thus, avoids the nasty inconvenience of hitting the highly remunerated Civil Servants, Judiciary etc etc.

With 100 million shares in Phnx, they have added £110 million in value to their asset base since the low price of Phnx of 436p.( year low), plus millions in dividend pay out.

Please correct me if my maths is incorrect.

Net, my view is on the big issues, the 'tories' are as left wing as Labour. Hence no change in outlook. NZ will still bankrupt the UK.R reeves is at least saying reasonable non loony left things ATM. What are the chances of her actions matching her words?. All unknown.

There's mention in the press that the Rate Setting body may not drop the base rate in September but, wait to see if inflation is really under control before dropping.

[skinny] 10/7/2024 10:46

Well it certainly not due to the BB!

[chinese investor] 10/7/2024 10:44

Maybe This !

Once the threat of high inflation evaporates then ABDN will zoom upwards.
IMO

I was a tad prem. to ditch my £5k at £1.58

Cannot see what has changed to improve matters for Abrdn other than the honeymoon period of the new Labour government.

Barclays raises abrdn price target to 150 (140) pence - 'underweight'

If I put that a good distance from my face, close both eyes tightly, and stand upside down I could SWEAR that it says RAISES ;-)
