Posted at 15/11/2024 01:13 by lauders Happy with the update yesterday and the reaction to it. Now for the share price to continue its new positive trajectory.Off topic: tourmaline44 15 Nov '24 - 00:36 - 20288 of 20288 0 3 0 tourmaline: Are you a gemmologist or someone in the jewellery field?

Posted at 14/11/2024 08:35 by muscletrade Hard to ask for better performance from AV and a half decent reaction in the share price Having said that it is very difficult to overcome the prevailing sentiment for UK PLC. I know I sound like a broken record but 10 year gilts yield now at 16 year high while sterling continues to slide.At least we can take comfort that AV are doing a great job regardless. |
Posted at 11/11/2024 12:40 by nerja AVIVAIt’s been a good year for the Aviva AV. 0.77% share price. The stock hit a floor in 2020, but in the last few years it has made a strong recovery. The insurance giant’s shares are up 20.16% over the last 12 months. As inflation falls and the Bank of England continues to cut rates, Aviva will look more attractive to income seekers once savings rates and bond yields start to fall. eyeQ’s smart machine shows the model is back in regime. Investors need to understand the big picture stuff moving the stock: lower volatility, higher growth and more risk averse investors. The stock currently sits 4.52% under eyeQ model value and the machine fired a bullish signal. For bulls, this could be a steal and eyeQ is telling you that it is the right time to add this stock, but don’t forget to do your own research and keep on its trading update scheduled for Thursday before making a final decision.

Posted at 31/10/2024 18:45 by smurfy2001 So the Aviva share price is declining because gilt prices are rising? Is that the theory? |
Posted at 29/10/2024 15:22 by muscletrade @tornado, while Av seems cheap at these levels doesn't mean they won't get cheaper..Mid September was more or less the high point for AV share price @ over 500p. this coincided almost exactly with the 10 year gilt yield recent low point at just a tad over 3.7%.Im not sure we can expect yields to drop back to this level very soon when government are warning of black holes, fiddling with with budget headroom, increasing taxes, while simultaneously doling out inflationary pay increases etc. But what do I know, I never worked at the BOE as a bean counter like the chancellor. |
Posted at 20/9/2024 17:57 by xtrmntr Three is no doubt that insurance companies are nowadays one of the most important dividend shares for income.They are attractive not because of the volume of dividends they rarely feature in the top 10 payers on that metric, and the 50 per cent cut flagged by Vodafone earlier this year is, on its own, bigger than the entire closely watched payout for Legal & General (LGEN).Interest instead stems from the relative cheapness of their shares. The attraction of inflation-beating yields is hard to match of the top six highest yielders in the FTSE 100, four are insurance companies, according to FactSet data.The question is whether those high yields are truly reflective of the level of risk that shareholders take when buying the shares. As ever, some are safer than others. Aviva (AV.) is an interesting example of a popular high yielding insurance share that reflects one basic truth: it is the largest insurance company in the UK to have comprehensively gotten its house in order.What was once a sprawling group built up by a seemingly arbitrary series of bolt-on acquisitions has been slimmed down to focus on the UK, Ireland and Canada, with clear delineation between the life, motor and personal insurance lines.The company's current health is also driven by the fact that costs have been tightly controlled at the same time as demand for annuities has picked up significantly. Aviva will write £7bn-£8bn of bulk annuities business this year, as defined benefit pension schemes' funding levels improve, allowing companies to offload future liabilities to insurers and simplify their own operations.But the most important reason for Aviva's popularity with retail investors is that the current management, led by chief executive Amanda Blanc, has also kept its word to shareholders when it comes to payouts. After raising £7.5bn from business sales, the company paid out £4bn of capital to shareholders by the middle of 2022.Fulfilling this commitment is no guarantee that dividends will continue to grow over the next couple of years, but current forecasts are for dividend growth in "mid-single digits" this year, or 5 per cent in old money, with a 7 per cent growth rate forecast for the following period, according to predictions by broker Berenberg. That translates into a current dividend yield of around 7 per cent, rising to 8 per cent at a price-to-book value of just 1.3 times. One reason to be cautious is that Aviva's operating profit target of £2bn by 2026 could be quite punchy if premium rates start to moderate, in which case the annuities business would have to take up more of the slack. Currently, general insurance premiums are forecast to rise at around 9 per cent for next year. What might be needed to ensure the future health of the dividend is for Aviva to smooth out its free cash flow. This has been exceptionally lumpy in the recent past, partly because of asset sales, but it is notable that the company is forecast to book cumulative cash flow growth of 12 per cent over the next two years. This seems to underline the fact that simplifying the business and focusing on what the company does best will prove profitable for income investors.Dividend policy: Cash cost of the dividend to grow by mid-single digitsYield: 7.2 per centPayment: Semi-annually, in sterlingLast cut: 2020AlternativeLegal & General surprised the market earlier this summer not via a 5 per cent increase in the dividend this year, topped up by share buybacks, but with forecasts that the two years through to 2027 would see a reduced 2 per cent annual increase, buybacks again substituted to try to make up the shortfall. It was the first substantive act from new chief executive António Simões and showed management's determination to improve LGEN's core operating profits. Income investors may not quibble too much about this change of direction given the forward dividend yield remains well above 9 per cent. |
Posted at 15/8/2024 09:31 by smurfy2001 Buybacks are good long term if a share price is trading below NAV. It no longer makes sense for Aviva. |
Posted at 15/8/2024 08:13 by kenmitch Note the different share price response to the good Results from AVIVA yesterday and Admiral today. AVIVA share price flat. Admiral share price up 8%.Why the big difference? Is it perhaps because Admiral have spent excess cash on the genuine reward of a special dividend on top of the increased ordinary dividend. I.e investors get the big bonus of real cash. AVIVA prefer to waste the spare cash on buybacks where unfortunately investors don’t get any real cash. RIO current dividend yield is 6% but a couple of years ago they rewarded investors with 20% dividend via big special dividends on top of their ordinary dividends. Fortunately more and more UK Companies are now paying special dividends instead of buying back. e.g Big Mining Companies like RIO now always go for big special dividends in the good years. Previously they spent multiple £billions on buybacks…..onl |
Posted at 15/8/2024 06:21 by lauders ADM results today seem okay so perhaps will help AV., when yesterday we expected a better day re: share price. MNG results will be early next month. So far the insurance sector has done just fine. |
Posted at 14/8/2024 16:12 by martinmc123 Aviva plc posted a strong set of H1 results this morning, ones which reported continued profitable growth momentum. Insurance, Wealth & Retirement (IWR) sales were up 12% to £19.7bn, group operating profit was up 14% to £875m, statutory profit for the year was up 58% to £654m. The Capital position is strong and resilient with Solvency II shareholder cover ratio of 205% (FY23: 207%) and centre liquidity (Jul 24) of £1.5bn (Feb 24: £1.9bn). Valuation messages are a little mixed with forward PE looking a little toppish at 10.1x while dividend yield at 7.6% and PS ratio at 0.65x are more attractive. The share price also has some positive momentum. Certainly a share worth considering, particularly if generous dividend distributions are of interest. BUY......WealthOracle wealthoracle.co.uk/d |
