How do you mean, Dazzanic? Your second sentence particularly....

News that sainsbury & Asda May have trouble merging could have helped the share price. Those two merging would put pressure on imperial to increase its investment. However, I suspect it’s because of the EX-divi date tomorrow.

Lol !!!!
Well last time it went XD it lost 3 x the div amount i.e around 200p.
Tomorrow could be different!

Is there any obvious reason the share price popped +3.1% today, apart from -perhaps- people buying to 'front-run' the XD tomorrow (though can investors really front-run the div on a company with this jumbo captlstn?).
Either way, a good day....

Well let's hope it continues to recover EJ, I still need £30 just to break even excluding dividends. It would be nice to see it close losing less than the dividend amount to effectively continue the upward movement.

xd tomorrow morning for the 65.46p dividend

Imperial Brands has confirmed this morning's @TimesBusiness scoop that the company "has recently initiated a process to search for a non-executive chairman to succeed Mark Williamson".

The workaround is to capitalize the "H".

"Imperial Tobacco to increase RRPs across all cigarettes"


Imperial Tobacco is increasing the RRP across its cigarettes, rolling tobacco (RYO), pipes and cigars from 4 February, RN has been told.

The wholesale prices charged to retailers are also likely to increase, as the manufacturer also plans to raise the prices paid by wholesalers for orders placed after 4 February. Prices for papers, tips, rolling machines, tubes, lighters and snuff will remain unchanged.

In 20s cigarettes, all Imperial’s brands including Lambert and Butler, JPS and Embassy will increase by 35p. Across its RYO brands including Golden Virginia and Drum, 30g packets will increase by 50p and 50g packets by 80p.

Market report:

"..Imperial Brands was on the blue-chip losers list, with British American Tobacco also falling.

"The whisper – presumably interspersed with a smoker’s cough – is that US regulators are getting more agitated about ecigarettes."

Better day tmmw chaps have faith, wait and see

For 2019

FTSE 100 +0.2%

FTSE 250 +5.9%

IMB -1.3%

BATS -5.1%

EJ a solid bear case but on the flip side tobacco stocks have proven to be extremely resilient and have been facing volume declines and regulation fears for over a decade. Pricing is still extremely low in emerging markets and cannabis is still an X factor that can recitalize the industry.

Will probably be out of favor for a year or two then rebound heavily when the numbers will speak instead of emotions.

[philanderer] 28/1/2019 12:14

Can't argue with that EJ.

I hold IMB and BATS , but they're part of a fairly well diversified portfolio so it's not costing me too much. I'll continue holding for the time being.

Good luck with yours as well :-)
