Started re buying shares, now the drama's with the market over.Dividend looks safe to me.

[spud] 06/10/2022 07:54

Oh dear. Last on 27th September. Price has responded so well since they started hasn't it! £150m up the Swanny. Obviously no one told Bird when he was a wee bairn not to pee directly into a stiff breeze.spud

They're back!

I suspect they have cancelled the share buy-back because funds under management have fallen significantly during period to 30th September. As such operating Prophets will be falling at an accelerated rate and they will need the cash to pay uncovered dividends going forward.

Why have they bought ii? They better not go down man

I d like a few opinions please

I am beginning to come around to the view that abdn is now beginning to resemble mng as an investment vehicle rather than an insurer having sold of various parts such as phoenix and the like

As such the lti events that have adversely turned lgen and others on their heads might be a buyin opportunity for abdn. Would be interested for those with more knowledge to put forward their thoughts with the II investment now not such a drag as was my original thought

Thoughts please

Agree re t/o. Pound as low as it gets, dollar as high, with cash in hand and stakes in decent companies inc ownership of II. If no one takes them out now I can't see it happening later. spud

i see a critical article of birds inept management of the company in the telegraph this am..

[spud] 01/10/2022 11:12

No. But I suspect it has something to do with the current economic sh1t storm and or the rumoured £500m shareholder return. spud

Nothing obvious, may be :-

[mcunliffe1] 01/10/2022 10:26

Did they honour us with an explanation as to why they've stopped Spud?

[spud] 01/10/2022 09:24

Thank goodness they've terminated the buybacks. spud

[spud] 30/9/2022 07:38

Buyback paused/terminated?spud

The chart still looks like pants, one to avoid IMO until the chart turns up or management gets replaced.

I did hold up until they changed their name to 'ABRDN', then bailed as they'd clearly run out of ideas...

The UT at 134.15 was a sell so it is likely that all trades at or below that are sells.

[gaygay3] 29/9/2022 18:22

Some big trades after hours don’t no if they where buys or sells

[montyhedge] 27/9/2022 16:06

Mister MD
Yes roll on to the next big one, ISA dividend compounding tax free, eighth wonder of the world.

[mister md] 27/9/2022 10:13

Well, received a huge dividend today - the only consolation here for now ...

[jubberjim] 26/9/2022 07:34

Update on buyback this morning

56,872,923 shares bought to date

Will not attempt to try and make any calculations in future

Hope this info as to buy back incl in rns news this morning means that someone has been paying attention at Aberdeen

Only comfort for me at moment

Now what to sell think deja vu 2020 again didn t learn my lesson then

Good luck we will need it next few days I think

[mcunliffe1] 25/9/2022 09:26

The removal of the banker's bonus cap will indeed benefit the high-flying, go-getting, uber-achieving bankers of this world and they may well move to London to enhance their bonus prospects.

Unfortunately, Abrdn have no employees who meet the aforementioned criteria so it appears we are stuck with the rather mundane crowd until the takeover.

[chinese investor] 25/9/2022 09:03

Scottish bankers will be moving to England and commute !

[jubberjim] 25/9/2022 08:07

Point taken spud will try ? To reset for time being

The double bottom mentioned in earlier message was where and when

Good luck everyone
