I don't believe this is a trading share. Take the quarterly dividend. Buy in at a good price. I bought this 22nd August 2023 and at the time here my notes:
Passes 7 long screens on stockpedia. Usually a strong defensive share and pays a healthy dividend. Share price is at a 10 year low, but seems to have tested these lows a few times in recent months. Buying in for a nice dividend and capital appreciation over time. This is an 18 month plus hold targeting 10-15% per year. Risks are high debt and slow down in historic markets.
With dividends as of today I'm 14.8 % up. My original investment thesis stands and I'm happy to see where this is in another 6 months. |
Let's hope the pound keeps falling that's good for FTSE 100 dollar earners. |
May regret it |
Sold out again in morning. |
You have, like I said all overdone, same company as it was Friday. One big buyer Bats with its buybacks until end of 2025, lol |
Just got to be careful tomorrow on any dead cat bounce. |
The summer sale was 2300 |
Also remember Bats same company they were yesterday, but on summer sale price. |
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 :( |
