well the fall was clearly a buying opportunity; I just didn't sell

XD is always a Thursday for an LSE listed stock.

I'm not sure why people have difficulty understanding this.

[silverfern] 21/3/2019 13:09

Still a big fall. Oh well, one to hold anyway!

[thamestrader] 21/3/2019 12:20

Thanks cwa1

Hmmm, my diary says tomorrow too, but i wonder if we’ve got it wrong, and tomorrow is actually the record date, and today is ex-div.
If not, we’re in for another big drop tomorrow.

[silverfern] 21/3/2019 11:46

Apart from the B word, any reason for the fall? Ex-div is tomorrow

[ygor705] 12/3/2019 09:16

Agreed silverfern. Operational environment totally screwed up by the political class in the past 12 months and so maintenance of profit, an increased dividend and a reasonable outlook ok by me as well. Solid hold.

[silverfern] 12/3/2019 09:04

SOlid results imo; 22p dividend up 5%. I hold 2500+ at around 1500p break even (but historic dividends put me in the positive. Will remain a holder.

In broker note action, Close Brothers was knocked lower by a downgrade to ‘sell’ at Citi

[thamestrader] 01/2/2019 08:25

any thoughts on the 3% drop at the open?
Not ex-div, no RNS, others in the sector haven't done the same. The slide actually stated yesterday pm, does someone know something I/we don't?

[deadly] 18/10/2018 09:51

since going XD last week it's recovering nicely but still too cheap.

[jackdaw4243] 11/10/2018 17:17

Going same way as Baillie Gifford and Aberdeen , Why

[eentweedrie] 11/10/2018 08:24

wtf is going on

[its the oxman] 25/7/2018 16:26

Why the rise anyone? 1615p

[danielbird193] 18/7/2018 08:17

Today's update seems reassuring. Not 'blow your socks off' material but gives some comfort that loan book growth and bad debt levels remain well controlled. Good growth in AUM in the asset management arm is encouraging as well. Overall I remain a satisfied holder.

[silverfern] 20/5/2018 14:10

Update on wednesday!

[silverfern] 01/5/2018 12:53

And so it's proved. Moving up ahead of trading update end of the month

[silverfern] 22/3/2018 18:40

well two things, Preben sold quite a few shares the day after results but he holds lots more, and the shares went xd yesterday or today (21p). BUt it's way over done imho

[thamestrader] 22/3/2018 09:51

Any thoughts as to why we're getting such a hammering? Other shares in the sector (ish) aren't being hit like this.

[silverfern] 22/3/2018 09:22

Still it's down. I will top up on the next bounce up

[thamestrader] 22/3/2018 08:15

Why's this one having such a hard time lately?

[silverfern] 16/3/2018 10:56

Really disappointed at the reaction but it will come back.

[its the oxman] 16/3/2018 10:29

Yes. Time to buy I guess. Feels well overdone given decent results.
