fool.co.uk supposed 'Peer Group' have very little in common - so in no way can they be considered as such.
As for using an average...tosh!!

How would you value them ?

[dope007] 25/3/2024 15:21

I wouldn't value Life insurers and pension providers on PE ever

Aviva trades on the key price-to-earnings (P/E) stock valuation measurement at 12.9. This is the second lowest in its peer group, which averages 20.8.



The peers comprise Hiscox at 7.6, Prudential at 15.8, Admiral at 24.8, and Legal & General at 34.9.

Where as Av is yielding just shy of 7% with a similar upside.

I'd rather hold Aviva

[whatsup32] 25/3/2024 09:32

Direct Line down 12% as expected.
It is yielding just over 2% with possible upside of say 20% if it's bought out.

Doesn't seem like a steal to me .

eurofox...keep up the good humour! April 11th as Stoopid says.

[eurofox] 25/3/2024 08:17

I thought the fool's date was 1st April

[stoopid] 25/3/2024 08:14

11th April

This gave me a good laugh this morning. I suppose we should be grateful that the FCA are not responsible for issuing pilot licenses.

The Financial Conduct Authority hired a chief internal auditor who does not have audit qualifications after advertising the role for only five working days, leading to claims that the recruitment process had been rigged in favour of an internal candidate. The appointment of Robin Jones, who has spent more than two decades working at the City regulator, has been greeted with surprise and anger in the internal audit profession. – The Times

Is it ex dividend today then?

[stoopid] 25/3/2024 07:25

Profit taking today??

[smurfy2001] 23/3/2024 11:49

Phoenix are paying a bonkers dividend, will put that on the watch list. Stock performance seems poor however.

[whatsup32] 23/3/2024 08:28

Phoenix had a good day yesterday closing up 8.4% with pledge to keep raising dividends currently yielding 10% .


Thanks to posters for advice on ISA's
I opened 2 accounts and will follow through in April .
It wasn't as much palaver as I thought it would be .

Yeah I face some pain come Monday in DLG but take comfort from my AV, LGEN, MNG and PHNX holdings. DLG much smaller too but it would have been nice if that had been taken out to free up a bit more for here.

Good luck all 👍🏻

I guess if you're in it for the long haul and the income, day to day price machinations shouldn't really matter. spud

Ageas will not make bid for Direct line…

I expect substantial drop in Directs share price Monday, will it affect other insurers?

[smurfy2001] 22/3/2024 16:50

Over 100p away from that buyout rumour price.

"Yet a takeover bid for Aviva at a rumoured 600p would still be a stretch and a half. "

[adelwire2] 22/3/2024 16:44

5 on Monday? Why not!

[dr biotech] 22/3/2024 16:43

Going back some years the comparison was always AV vs PRU - lots of complaints at how badly AV had done in comparison. Guess over the more recent history perhaps things look a bit more in AVs favour.

[spud] 22/3/2024 09:41

The 2.1% pru dividend is pitiful for this sector and is what's holding it back imo.Now I wonder where that missing dividend money is being funnelled in the main......spud

[uppompeii] 22/3/2024 09:32

Good day at Phoenix, looks like the sector is in rude health, aside Pru.
