"ftse 100 has delivered virtually no net return in 20 years"

So what ?
You only investing in passive index trackers?
How about investing in some of the individual stocks in the FTSE, then see where your 20 year returns could have been.

I guess you will not be bothering to look up potential answers , but then if you don't do the research you likely will not make the gains....

Looking perky again. MACD bottoming out and bouncing up off the bottom of the bollinger. Back to 330? I can hope.

What's going on, don't see buy back today being likely

Porsche: 'Probably best this stays out of the ftse 100, its doomed, cant hold 7000 level, same price it was 3rd Dec....1999. Just shocking, anywhere else you would have 2x’d plus your money...tories have been a disaster with all their selfish impoverishing infighting that has resulted in foreign outflows and sterling down against dollar 11 years in a row. Cant see an end to it, buy S&P growth and apart from a few trades like this dump UK, terminal.'

Ignores the basic fundamental difference that the US indices pay much lower dividends than the UK typically does. So what their indeces have seen in growth we've seen in divs being peeled off (that we can then spend or reinvest).

For info - I just contacted Halifax Share Dealing chat support and was told they have only just received the dividend details and were working as hard as possible to get it sorted today - So at least it seems to be in hand.

Great Divi-makes a real difference irrespective of short term share price fluctuations.

Love the FTSE 100, has been a reliable dividend payer in the last 25years.

Had excellent share price rises from some unexpected sources!

Buy British!!

Cheers wllm - At least it's not just me then, i guess it will be sorted at some point, but thanks for letting me know.

[wllmherk] 20/5/2021 21:42

I'm with Halifax and haven't received mine either,

wllm

[linton5] 20/5/2021 20:48

Sold mine at 320 just before bought back 285 so I’m happier with that been caught so often with dividends it doesn’t pay

[hallucinogenix] 20/5/2021 20:09

Thanks for the replies - maybe its just a Halifax issue. Hopefully get sorted over night...

[woodhawk] 20/5/2021 19:42
