I missed out. Thought it would drop to 2660. I expect it will be above 2700 tomorrow |
The TA chart looks better already... :o) |
Uncanny how the TA chart was looking a bit toppy at 2800, the catalyst for the sell off is impacting everything, it will look a lot better at 2600 (IF it pulls back that far) ready for the rebound and next leg up.. :o) |
Well we know one buyer everyday until end of 2025, Bats buybacks, lol.13 weeks until our next dividend, thank goodness we are in a high dividend stock so can ride it out. Not like tech traders. |
The futures on BTI is down 6.2% so could be an opportunity to buy once the US market has opened. I can't see why a slowdown in the US market should have a big impact on smoking. I would expect BAT to bounce back in a few days. |
The Dow is showing 870 down. Probably be a bloodbath when the yanks wake up. |
That's it's gone too far little top up for me. |
With HL go on to the main site click on bonus income it will be in there I transferred the funds into other account |
HL is so slow my divi is not even pending, but I always remember Worn out Bucket 'When we buy a stock we like the price to drop so we can buy more at a better price.' And I'm in BATS for the divi income as part of my retirement incomes so over the next two years price drops are buying opportunities. K. |
Short term pain long term gain is the way to look at it right now with stocks like BATS in my opinion.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |
Guess I should have waited till today to reinvest those dividends , Oh well ! |
Everything gets sold off, good, bad and ugly to pay for loses elsewhere, if we hold above 2700p next couple of days that's good. Just a case of battern down the hatches, off to golf forget about it. |
yes i bought friday....and barclays ;-[ |
This stock was supposed to be my hedge against crashes :( |
But off a couple of pence, nothing. |
Problem is traders sell the winners to pay for losers. |
Yes, rotation into large dividend payers as interest rates start to fall. |
#Hope1815, investors have had 2 years to load up on depressed shares while interest rates have climbed from next to zero, peaked, and are now coming off..
A strategy I adopted has been to gradually do this with the expectation that as interest rates cool, defensive/value and high yielding shares will start to shine as cash deposit rates reduce, and the rising tide effect of lower rates reducing company debt interest would raise more boats than it leaves behind..?
BATS was a case of waiting for an entry and that came along at c2300 on the back of the asset write down, but we make our own luck by being patient, and keeping fingers crossed before clicking the mouse.. :o)
Some evidence of gains being priced in over July ahead, but the FTSE100 has made no material gains since April overall..?, the driver on Friday for the -100 points was the sell off over the pond though and we will have to see how that rebounds (or deepens), but their indices recovered into the close.. |
Wow the Dow looking ugly, we must one of the only stocks up. |
I see PM is only just shy of its all time high and Altria with all its troubles with Juul is a third off its all time high yet both IMB and BAT are 50% off their all time highs.There must be more value to be had from these two you would think in terms of their share price No wonder Shell and other companies think about having their HQ in the US.Stocks over there have the advantage of increased liquidity in the market,bigger exposure etc.One can but dream |
