15:23		cassini: Sold at 388p earlier this week. Drax has a decent divi considering my much lower buy price but in the end, what with the (more than) total recovery from the lows I have decided to see if my money can be better put to work in another share.

01:37		cassini: I'm in a quandary as to whether to take profits. Consider this scenario - someone buys 500 Drax shares at 200p, then it rises to 400p. His original outlay of £1000 bought shares that have now doubled in value to £2000 and the dividend is 8.15% - relative to his original buy price. Not bad at all. He gets 16.3p per share as a dividend (£81.50 dividend annually in total). However the dividend is actually 4.08% to a buyer at the current share price of 400p. He could sell up DRX and with the proceeds buy £2000 worth (1751 shares) of, say, DGOC instead. With a dividend of 10.85p/share (maintained through 2020 incidentally), his DGOC investment will return a dividend of £190 per year. He is now getting over double the DRX dividend payment (if held in a SIPP, as DGOC is subject to withholding tax). Considering the original outlay into Drax was £1000, that's a bit like getting a 19% dividend on the original £1000 investment inside of a year. All this supposes of course DRX does not climb in value much further and DGOC does not drop or stop paying the dividend. You can replace DGOC with a similar high yield share. Of course Drax could climb higher - it's been much higher in the past, but it's met resistance at ~400p since 2015. Decisions, decisions...

06:23		paulo435: Castleford, capital growth is important to me as much as a dividend payment so I wouldn’t always agree with the approach you suggest. Whilst obviously the yield improves as the price takes a dip, it’s the underlying capital growth I am after - dividends alone won’t cover me if the price falls too significantly. Not that it is in this case, I have the benefit of both growth and good yield from my entry price. To answer your question, I have Airtel Africa in my portfolio - which yields around 8% at the moment - just one example. Also, don’t forget, attractive dividends can also reflect a higher degree of risk.

13:27		castleford tiger: with 17p dividend to come even after paying 300p a share its 5.8% can someone tell me where that return is possible. 7000 shares in an ISA returns 1190 in profit tax free a year. What happens to the share price does not matter. Any dips you just add.
