Good data, thanks!

And historically, assertion is false, last year.
And dividend impact is quarterly, so smoothed.

22 Feb '18 : closed even
10 May '18 : closed up approx. 7p
09 Aug '18 : closed down approx 2p
15 Nov '18 : closed up approx 10p
From 22 Feb '18 to 20 Aug '18 trend was up.

The last twenty years that might of been the case but it was not always thus.Things don't stay the same forevermore.It'll be interesting to see if there's a bit of investor appetite from other quarters other than income seekers.

Followed GSK for 25 years can write the script now, everyone piles in for the 23p dividend, ex tomorrow, share fall 25p, then some bit of negative news, income boys already holding, traders come in bang, below 1500p.

[watfordhornet] 20/2/2019 16:42

Let's hope so - looking very attractive even at these prices so all for it looking even better

[montyhedge] 20/2/2019 16:03

xd tomorrow, next week below 1500p.

[steeplejack] 20/2/2019 15:22

US currently trading around £15-91 equivalent.

[philanderer] 20/2/2019 14:04

xd tomorrow morning for the 23p dividend 😊

[tradermichael] 20/2/2019 13:02

Well, I believe that the 'market' has taken the dividend out of the price already, so I'm buying in NOW for the dividend come what may ….. ;0)

CGT on GSK? Now that would be quite an event.

Sub £15 coming any time soon.

[tradermichael] 20/2/2019 09:48

Its a job to get capital gains on GSK at the moment! The fall so far resembles an ex div day!

[alphorn] 20/2/2019 09:46

grahamite - you were reading my mind!
Sorry off topic - at the moment a GB national in France or Switzerland can opt for GB laws on inheritance - rather than defined rules to spouse etc. Who knows post Brexit whether that will fall away. Very relevant if you are not married.

[grahamite2] 20/2/2019 09:40

Possibly relevant to you Alphorn - transfers between spouses are not necessarily IHT exempt if one of the spouses is not UK domiciled.

[alphorn] 20/2/2019 09:27

Ayl - I do understand that. I was interested in the wider tax implications that's all.

[ayl30] 20/2/2019 09:25

7 year is about inheritance tax not CGT. It does not apply to transfers between spouses

[zho] 20/2/2019 09:25

I can see what I wrote is ambiguous.

Transfers between spouses are not tax events. But if someone gifts shares to someone who is not a spouse then CGT may be due in the normal way because the gift counts as a disposal.

[alphorn] 20/2/2019 09:20

grahamite - agree. Does the 7 year rule apply between spouses inter vivos?

[grahamite2] 20/2/2019 09:18

zho's second paragraph is not correct.

[tradermichael] 20/2/2019 09:13

zho - correct, (sorry for the typo, old data)

[zho] 20/2/2019 09:06

TM,

I think the CGT allowance is currently £11,700.

And the CGT would be payable by the person gifting the shares because the transfer counts as a disposal.

[grahamite2] 20/2/2019 09:04

A transfer between spouses inter vivos will not of itself give rise to a CGT charge whatever the amount.

[tradermichael] 20/2/2019 08:59

Think again, then.

You can transfer shares to anyone without using a stockbroker and, provided no money changes hands, there is no stamp duty to pay. If you make the gift to anyone other than your spouse, capital gains tax may be payable if they go above their £7,200 annual CGT-free limit

[northernhills] 20/2/2019 08:52

Thought there were laws about that sort of thing!
