If you have 40000 shares and you buy and sell some or all of them when the share price spikes either way then you could make a capital gains of £100,000,timing and luck will have to be your co-pilots .

Dividend will never be increased been the same for years, just like holding a bond not a ord share. The whole point holding shares is for dividend growth and capital gain. GSK shareprice the same has it was 25 years ago, what growth. Poor show.

Just cannot seem to sort earning cash, earnings per share poor, always the same, hover around this until ex div then back to 15.20, time to buy in and sell again on way to next ex div, good trading share but thats all, useless for capital growth and if you want income there are funds with higher yields and lower stock specific risks, if she decides to buy another bio tech for billions this will tank again and put div at risk, its still being paid from debt. I know you " lifers " are waiting for the March to 1900 but its never gonna happen.

abdullla:

The reduction primarily reflected the adverse phasing of payments for returns and rebates, as well as the initial step-down impact from Advair generic competition and an increase in trade receivables as a result of strong sales in the quarter, partly offset by improved operating profits and lower contingent consideration payments compared with Q1 2018 which included a milestone payment to Novartis.

There's those who are reading between the lines,abdullla just on the first paragraph hence the euphoria,sorry

Make your mind up, abdulla.

Maybe issues short term, but the longer term is looking good, which I think is an improving picture!

[abdullla] 01/5/2019 12:16

Looks trouble ahead on free cash flow

TM - will they all be additional sales or will some of those new sales come from existing drugs (sales)?

Some of the world’s largest drugmakers painted an optimistic picture of the industry’s prospects this year, after posting better than expected first-quarter earnings thanks to growth in China and new cancer treatments.

Pfizer, Merck and Eli Lilly all increased their earnings forecasts for 2019 on Tuesday, even as investors continue to worry about the prospect of US regulation on drug prices and US presidential candidates pledge to transform the healthcare system.



Interesting comment vis earnings forecasts UP despite fear over US regulation on drug prices.....

[tradermichael] 29/4/2019 18:23

Not sure what you mean?

[alphorn] 29/4/2019 14:01

TM - will that be incremental sales or cannibalisation?
