A fair few cos seem to be thinking in terms of reviewing dividend policy at the end of calendar2020 - imo they will want to see what happens re the much discussed "second wave" before committing to anything.

Executive directors remuneration to be reviewed tomorrow with the dividend.
No dividend equals a pay cut imho.

13.8p 2019 final dividend deferred on 3rd April. Will this be paid or further deferred and will we get an interim dividend?
I reckon we will get a bit fat zero.
Hope I'm wrong.

Yeah agree... wonder if people in the know have gotten out?

I'm hoping they resume the Divi even if cut abit... better than nothing and might draw in funds and Pi's looking for some sort of returns.

[ribblewader] 29/7/2020 17:43

That finish was not encouraging for tomorrow.

[invest ted] 29/7/2020 10:39

====== The use of UVC lights in Cars and Boats and Planes and Trains ========

As well as Hospitals and Care Homes ; Transport will use UVC lighting for disinfection purposes ie to kill the Covid-19 virus.

This post looks at planes --- as due to Covid-19 most are currently grounded.


Plane manufacturer Boeing AFTER SARS-CoV-1 and after MERS filed a patent application for the use of 220nM UVC lighting ,222nM lighting and various other wavelengths.

Boeing with all their resources could see back in 2017 what could happen re a bad coronavisus re Risk Management output.

Hence:



REFLECTOR SYSTEM FOR A LIGHTING ASSEMBLY
Oct 6, 2017 - THE BOEING COMPANY

A lighting assembly includes a light source, such as an ultraviolet (UV) light source that is configured to emit UVC light, and a reflector system including a base having an internal central crest that is configured to direct emitted light away from the light source.



The right assembly , with the right power level and wavelength 220nm or 222nM or close to --- will NOT damage human DNA --- but it will kill the Covid-19 causing virus SARS-CoV-2

buywell expects to read further clinical results in September.

And Ushio selling their 222nM units in Japan in October

Followed by a ROW LED UVC explosion of usage in 2021 ( better powered special LED's at 222nM are being made )

dyor --- buyell does
