Chesnara Share Discussion Threads

Have had CSN sitting in my portfolio for ages and rarely look at it - just happy with the high dividend yield it provides. The directors seem to be buying up stock too, another 10,000 shares director buy RNS'd today.

Hope your right, topped up today

Boring is beautiful and Chesnara is boring. Always has been, always will be. That is until the day that a bid comes out of the blue from a larger fish happy to swallow up this lesser morsel. At which point you will be able to revel in the satisfaction of a nice capital gain as well as all those juicy dividends that you have accumulated over the years. Until that time I for one will continue to sleep easy with this holding in my portfolio.

Always been thinly traded, moving up and down on small trades. Very frustrating as I have always seen this as an undervalued company. I would certainly be buying if I didn't already have a full allocation.

The share price opened well up on no apparent volume, since which it's eased it way back down on low volume, trading here is different to any I've experienced in the last 20 years.

No but the other I've had for years and it pays a damned good dividend, it's share price is always terrible between ex divi dates.

I'm rather hoping this share price will will have a similar profile.

Turned into the Dog in my portfolio :(

SP holding up well considering the state of the markets.

Just the first part:

"Our dividend heroes comprise defence giant BAE Systems, cigarette maker BAT, detergent to hard hats group Bunzl, life and pensions firm Chesnara, shipbroker Clarksons, chemicals specialist Croda International, distributors DCC and Diploma, safety equipment conglomerate Halma, flooring experts James Halstead, medical centre owner Primary Health Properties, translation specialist RWS, UK software champion Sage Group, top-end engineer Spirax and farming supplier Wynnstay."

Ref Chesnara she says that Chesnara is the biggest income generator of the above and explains how to calculate the yield for those who do not know...

Nice £800 divi today, reinvested.

Chesnara is mentioned in above article and quite rightly.

Much better interview than I've seen in the past, gave a little more confidence that they weren't just buying growth at any cost. I liked the comment that they don't feel pressure to buy and that not much has happened because they couldn't get a deal where the price made sense.

A little miffed that he seemed to insinuate that the current strategy was the one that has allowed dividends to increase consistently over 20 years. He's only been here 5 minutes.

But overall a much more comforting summary of the companies progress and strategy going forward.

@ gbh2: That link doesn't work, it just takes me to a generic landing page. What's the news?

[gbh2] 26/9/2024 08:17

New link below.

Picked up a few K today, ave, fraction over 255p, looks like a decent punt.

Wondered why it was down with everything else rallying hard !

"A life insurer and pensions group formed in 2004, Chesnara is an anagram of 'earns cash' – and bosses are determined it lives up to its name."

Happy to hold !
