If I told you yesterday this was gonna drop to 382 you would have called me a fool,never get complacent with stocks or markets they like to make you like a chump Matt. I’m in anyway as you say great divi after good results

[mattcookson] 13/3/2018 16:24

Keep dreaming Linton5, if anything after todays superficial drop this will be well over 390 tomorrow. Just Dow Jones need to finish in blue. You got to be a fool not to snap this on the cheap. With over 9% divi yield, this is no brianer really :).

DLG goes ex divi on 05/04, 28.6p divi to be paid on 17th May, that combined with an interim divi of 6.8p means this hidden gem is currently yielding over 9.5%/year. What a beauty, it’s hard to find solid businesses like DLG with good divi yield of over 9% in the current climate. share price will do well over the coming weeks/months. SOLID BUY!!

Nice to see some forward movement - at last - after such great results!

[billy5] 06/3/2018 08:21

Well not a bad start to the day and with Esure coming out with Results tomorrow, which are good, +30%, I am hoping these will be carried along with flow. We will have to wait and see.

[woodhawk] 05/3/2018 15:33

Yeah, of course you were.

[linton5] 05/3/2018 15:31

I’m in woodhawk at 810am but was hoping it would go under 370 for more as I felt greedy

Peel Hunt Add 375.40 415.00 415.00 Reiterates

Bit further away from your 370p at the moment Linton5. Already got some in the bag for a 9.4% yield. Enjoy your wait.

[sogoesit] 05/3/2018 13:12

Yes, am chasing dividends so a recent ex-div on CLIG will let me sell to buy more DLG.
I might even squeeze a PSN in there for £1...

[linton5] 05/3/2018 11:37

Waiting patiently for 370 under that even better tick tock tick tock

[woodhawk] 03/3/2018 08:25

Gary, you're right - and I would buy (even) more too. I've doubled my whole portfolio by trading and reinvesting income over the past couple of years, so am now taking a more sanguine approach and seeking the more reliable, progressive and relatively high divi payers. I can use spreadbets for thrills and quick profits, in whichever direction (also tax free)..

[garycook] 03/3/2018 06:11

W,Do not think 354p will come.But you never know DLG have retraced to that level by Skinny,s chart 3 times since Oct 2017,so it would be very nice if it did.Holding enough anyway.But would buy more at that level.

[woodhawk] 02/3/2018 18:01

I'll take my chances Gary - doubled my holding already with a lot bought in last 2 days, first ex-d in a month and next interim in August. Good luck with your 354p, you optimist you!

[garycook] 02/3/2018 15:47

Woody,Well done.But could go lower yet with the markets.If so I will join you with a few more at 354p for a 10% yield.

[woodhawk] 02/3/2018 11:42

I reckon DLG is now yielding about 9.4% at circa 375p - and most of that payable in the near term!

[woodhawk] 02/3/2018 08:43

You wouldn't believe - judging by the last few days share prioe performance - that this share will yield circa 9% (circa 7 times what I might get in a cash account) with a set of great results behind it, would you? And that's all payable within 7 months!! I've now increased my holding by almost 100%.
