Sold 13,000 at 342.80 near the open, will begin to add back lower, if available.

[essentialinvestor] 18/4/2017 15:55

Much appreciated.

EI,

Clearly the news on a snap election caught the market by surprise.

The miners are getting hammered and as you say domestic stocks should benefit.

I still hold 10,000 DLG, however will watch news on any Ogden review, but not looking
to add to DLG in the short term (may regret that!)

DMF, are you buying back yet here?. TIA.


Would expect the domestic focused stocks to perhaps get some support on
a resurgent GBP, however if the UKX is going in to free fall then about
everything goes lower.

[dmf] 18/4/2017 15:29

No problem EI
Shortly after the market opened today sold third of my holding in SL.
However bought some LGEN - nice dividend due soon !

nick, is the Cuba trip still on? - said in jest btw!.

Have added today, may take a more aggressive position over the next
couple of months, depending on price and what else is available.


DMF, if you are about thank you for mentioning that you sold 50% on the pop to 3.52,
prompted me to sell 100% on the day.

Any special is reviewed once annually at the FY,
the BOD could not have made it any clearer.

I urge you to follow @McDermottQC on twitter he explains the discount rate in detail, he may also know when the discount rate consultation will be published, although we know it will be before middle of May. Hopefully result in a 10p special divi and a substantial re-rating of the shares
