Last day before XD tomorrow and see where we end up with another 58.88 pence in the pot..
#Boatman123, Dec23-May24 does now look like an excellent time to have built this position, keep them for a decade and see what it owes you on a total return basis, but most likely next to nothing.. :o) |
Been accumulating since 2009 @16.70 Admittedly I sold half @46.00 but bought back at half price. It’s very unlike me to sell any of my shares. Just collect divis. |
I certainly won't be selling , I got all mine in the £22-£23 range , luckily for me , and the divi will be my main source of income , I'm in here for the long term now |
In my opinion the hardest thing to do is sell. Each of us have to make our own personal decisions and we all have different strategies etc. I will be holding and reinvesting the divis as I can see this going up further in the medium to long term. Of course one could take a profit and hope to re-enter at a more favourable price especially after the recent good run. It's a personal choice. With the pound doing so good against the dollar that is also a negative here. Who knows. |
If it drifts lower reinvest the divi it will all come good |
Remember juicy divis every quarter. I am happy the hold (but not buying any more as do not want to be too overweight) |
I am in the same boat as you. Personally, I am holding fast here and hoping to ride out any short term retrace. |
It's hard to call making a great profit do I hold for the dividend or take profit before, I just feel ex dividend shares will drift below 2800p. |
Jumping ship all the time is a stressful business and hard to time. |

Burberry is another one in the UK that I am watching but waiting for sub 500 |
If the buybacks have finished here for 2024 then this will drift down for sure imo |
if youre hunting divvis...BP...BT PHNX MNG HSBA even NESF IMHOnot sure theyre better but im a bit overweight here so..mind you divvi thurs take your choice |
In the US:
Intel, Walgreen Boots (huge dividend but may be cut), Estee Lauder ...
More risky is Teladoc but seems to have bottomed
In the UK: BRWM for miners
Then the luxury brands in the EU such as Kering
With the Pound so strong they are even cheaper for us |
#9772 ''...........but there are better opportunities out there for the time being......''
Like where? |
#Nellynell, edited, that was the next part of my maths.. :o) |
Think that figure is out of date now LLB up till and including 20th Sept over 21m shares have been repurchased and cancelled |
Hopefully we move up & over £30, history shows that September is usually a bad month for shares. |
25.07.2024 - further to the share buyback programme announcement on 18 March 2024, the Company announces that it has entered into an irrevocable, non‐discretionary agreement with, Goldman Sachs International to purchase ordinary shares of the Company commencing on 25 July and ending on 14 October 2024.
BAT is a highly cash generative business, and we are committed to continuing to reward shareholders with strong cash returns. We have made progress in enhancing financial flexibility, enabling the initiation of a sustainable share buy-back programme.
The initiation of a sustainable share buy-back programme, with GBP700M in 2024 and 900M in 2025
15M ordinary shares have been repurchased H1 to end of 30 June 2024 (GBP390M spent)
6.5M purchased to 20.09.2024 (GBP175M)
21.5M total approx GBP565M with 135M remaining to spend or about 5M shares..
So tranche 2 buyback for 2024 will be cut off short with just 3 weeks left to run and/or carried over.. |
Have the buybacks been completed for 2024? No notifications for purchases from Friday in the rns section? |
As far as I can see this just took a breather before breaking 30 I've traded it up taking divi on routeBut a profit is only a profit when you cash in well done..Hopefully the handle is forming I have a stop loss if it collapses 30% up gla :--) |
Ok, I'm out in case the head and shoulders formation on the chart plays out in full
I love this stock but there are better opportunities out there for the time being, I will buy back if it goes under 2500
GLA |
Yes i'm tempted. |
Tempted to sell my last tranche and wait to buy back lower ... decisions decisions lol |
This is now dependent on Trump winning. |
