D.I.Y? Google ‘aviva share buyback’.

If a no deal is averted, AVIVA will rise past £5 for sure. Problem is in 2022 most likely the loony left will get power, so it may be worth holding UK stocks till 2022 and then switching to the US.

Tradejunkie is being deliberately mischievous.

Dividend looks safe to me. It's important to look not just at EPS (which can be quite artificial in an insurer) but also at free cash flow. FCF per share was 187p in 2017 compared to a dividend of 27.4p. That free cash flow is supporting the dividend, a buyback programme and debt reduction, all of which return capital to shareholders.

The equivalent numbers look a lot tighter for some of the other high yielding FTSE shares like VOD or IMB. In fact SSE reported FCF per share of 16.7p in 2018, yet still paid out a divvy of 94.7p. Completely unsustainable!

EPS 0.35 GBP makes you bang on with 1.25x uppompeii.
Looks good to me medium term.

[uppompeii] 23/11/2018 20:59

And forecast to go to around 1.75x?What are you after?

[uppompeii] 23/11/2018 20:56

It's about 1.25x isn't it?

[tradejunkie2] 23/11/2018 15:06

Hmmmmmmmm.


Annual div (ADY) 28.25 GBX
EPS (TTM) 0.2731 GBP




Explanation by the bulls here?
Why the poor dividend cover?

[bennodean] 23/11/2018 06:50

Can see why you are saying that but currently the price I think is in support zone of the the up trend from 2008 low... and the financial system was collapsing then.

Brexit really as big ?

Takes some large stones to press the buy button though.

That cat looks like a Tonkinese




The Tonkinese personality makes this breed popular as a companion cat. Loving, social, active, playful...yet content to be a lap cat. Tonkinese are firmly convinced that humans were put on Earth to love them. Intelligent and generous with their affection, a Tonkinese will supervise all activities with curiosity.


FTSE 100 to 6000 anybody ?

What price AV. then ?

Meanwhile watch the RSI as it has the current potential to make AV. take a hit to 350p

[uppompeii] 22/11/2018 16:15

Excellent yield then.

[tradejunkie2] 22/11/2018 15:17

Nat far off now kitty cats.

We all getting ready for less than 400p?

Good.

Very good Skinny.

I have a number of Elite Guru costumes but not one in that colour. A little on the vibrant side for me.

[bracke] 21/11/2018 14:46

Good day uppompeii

By the time Gurus have gone through the slings and arrows of outrageous posters they achieve an inner calm and ascend to a higher plane of Guruism. They are then deemed to be 'Elite'.

[uppompeii] 21/11/2018 13:28

I thought that was exclusively the 'elite ones....

[pete_bane] 21/11/2018 12:17

Don't worry about me! I eventually sold out in the 540s. I'm so glad that I didn't listen to buywell and his then prediction. I never rated him at all.

It's 'cos he's a Guru. The're very 'touchy'.

Some people will go to any lengths to improve their self esteem

[uppompeii] 21/11/2018 08:28

You really went back over 2.5yrs to dig up a post that upset you?

This blokie 'buywell3' is complete rubbish at the investment game, isn't he?

He never gets anything right. Aviva sub 400p, was it?
