Very possible monty with the UK holiday and Labor day in the US not that far away now.
Expectation though is for the FED to start cutting next month and I am sure we too will get another cut before the end of 24. That has to be good for high yielders and I am sure north of 2800 will come back around in the autumn and a challenge of 2900 too maybe in the Santa rally.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |
Might go lower first summer markets can be unpredictable, fund managers on holiday, low volume. |
I think that's a good price target and have it down for my next top up.
Could see a test of 2900 happen in the run to the next divi in my opinion.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |
Looking at getting in around 2700 for Divi Russian situation looks dodgy |
What would you sell the other half for? I'm in two minds, we been in for the rise from around 2350p, 2807p top sliced a few. In Nvidia for next week figures, but looking at Phoenix, may have missed the boat there though. |
Not at all surprised to see a little pullback from 2800p, it will take a few runs at it and over it to stick, then 26.09.2024 for the next XD for 58.88 pence.. :o) |
I sold half my shares for a good profit at 2811, keeping the rest for now. I wanted to diversify away from tobacco for dividends so am buying BRWM as part of that change of tack. |
No harm, seven days of gains, bound to be profit taking, I top sliced a few locked in nice profit, especially with 58.8p on top.Only level got to look for in my opinion for next week 2753p, don't won't that broken. Nvidia 28th August figures big day for me. Good weekend bulls and even pesky bears, lol. |
Looks like to me a rotation back into tech, leaving dividend companies. |
I am sure you will get there, especially now I have sold my final tranches here. Was planning on keeping those for a higher target price, but wanted the cash for something else. It has nonetheless been a splendid position for me. And a rare case of decent cap gains plus some lovely dividends along the way. Always nice when those pain purchases (mid 22's and early 23's) turn out well. No doubt I have left plenty more in the tank for others. GLA and I hope you see 30-plus down the line. |
Looking good my £29 average is getting closer hopefully by the end of August |
imb at about a 3 year high. bats has some catching up to do. That is what I am waiting for. Lovely jubbly |
Another close over 2800..
Lower inflation figures in the US today, a rate cut is getting closer, yield hunters will be buying dividends as returns on cash deposits reduce.. :o) |
Tag, thank you. I should check that out. Pendragon2 was the guy who pointed me in the direction of SBLK as we both haunt several of the same threads. |
MC1 there is a board set up for SBLK if you are interested, with regular decent comments added. |
I took a punt yesterday and bought SBLK (Nasdaq)- Star Bulk Carriers Corp.
First time I have bought a non-UK stock. Used my ii SIPP and was required to purchase in UK pounds as my SIPP has no dollar balance. This, I presumed, would be converted to US dollars and the subsequent purchase made in that currency.
By my calculations the conversion was at about 1.263 dollars to the pound which matches very closely with some cash I ordered online for an upcoming Florida holiday next week. With the basic deal charge and no stamp duty I'm quite happy with the setup.
SBLK do seem to be a very good, four times a year, divi payer and that's my game.
I am not recommending the stock as I am not knowledgeable enough but you may want to look at this yourselves. Next ex-div is Aug 27th |
Of course they wont reverse the stamp duty thing....easy money again for nothing like buying a house |
You're right, I've taken a punt US tech stocks have a bounce, Punted in Nvidia on the figures 28th August.The only thing buying US stocks is currency can go against you, on the plus side no stamp duty, ftse 100 stocks we have stamp duty rip off as far as I'm concerned. |
bats is a defensive stock with reliable divis. It is also already bombed out even given the recent move up. There are always reasons to be twitchy but bats is a good place to be for me. |
I am here for the long hall and happy as Larry as a bats investor. (whoever Larry is!) Patience and divis. |
No one goes hungry when banking a profit so well done plastow and monty.
Good luck all 👍🏻 |
I just top sliced a few, nice profit. |
I've sold out again as I'm getting a bit concerned about the Ukraine Russian situation plus middle East is looking not to good which will effect markets had to lock in profits. And wait for another buying opportunity gla |
UK and US CPI data tomorrow, could signal for FED rates to start to pull back in September, a lot of shares will trade sideways until we see a catalyst for growth, and consumer spending increasing.. |
Shareprice starting to roll over on 2800p, I may top slice a few tomorrow, may be wrong of course but looks likerunning out of steam for the time being. |
