70,000 shares - £169k outlay - I'd like a sofa like that.

Must've been his big sofa ;-)

I see Sir Douglas has joined the boys by sticking his hand down the back of the sofa!spud

Dividend payments can only increase from here.
A Bargain at this price.

Excellent turnaround in the share price over the course of the day. Though with the US markets so far ahead on the day at the moment it would've been unremarkable-if it hadn't been for the poor start...

spud.on 300 not long to go the new revenue income from II in 2022 is going to give the div a nudge up once earnings pass the 1.5 thresholds ;-)

Nice comback...so far :-)

[chinese investor] 06/12/2021 09:08

Agreed Spud but ABDN has impacted my 2021 portfolio performance in a negative way !

65p to 300p !!

[spud] 06/12/2021 09:06

Only if you bought for growth not income! spud

[mcunliffe1] 06/12/2021 08:38

c.i. would like 266 - only 34 then to 300. :-)

[partenope] 06/12/2021 08:30

"Morgan Stanley cuts target price to 266p from 289p"

not great...but for sure 266 would be fine by me ;)

[partenope] 06/12/2021 08:12

stick with it for income. love to know MS' rationale.

[cwa1] 06/12/2021 08:10

Well, it sure is unpopular!

[montyhedge] 06/12/2021 08:05

Morgan Stanley cut Abdn to underweight in other words a sell.

[spud] 05/12/2021 17:51

May not see £5 Tim, but you will see a stonking yield which if we're serious for a minute, is really what this stock is all about. spud

[timgw] 05/12/2021 16:11

I remember some years ago chat on the BBs looking forward to these shares being £5 by then Xmas.

If we see that price again I will believe in miracles.

Directors are usually required to hold a multiple of salary in shares,
details will be in the annual report.

[spud] 04/12/2021 10:20

Yes edited. spud

Guess you mean 'contract' spud. I doubt any such stipulation, but I would guess peer group planning, rather than pressure, per se. As you and Boozey have noted, these buys are impressive. My 'multiples' & TNAV asset concerns (was strong, now hugely less so!) remain, but I'm not averse to acquiring a 6.3% yield IF 230p could be achieved.

[spud] 04/12/2021 09:33

Yes. If the directors don’t have confidence in the Company and their new acquisition, they would hardly be dropping serious dosh now would they! Unless of course, there’s a contract stipulation or peer pressure, which I doubt.

The whole market has been in the doldrums the past couple of weeks. Three Director buys on the back of the II purchase can only bode well.

[exel] 03/12/2021 23:43

Thanks all for great points above. I just can't escape the view that Interactive Investor is a me/too business (albeit growing) for which abrdn has paid a premium price - in the process raiding most of its positive cash. The multiples involved are a tad mind-boggling.
