i'm hoping it sits here until monday.

This 30 or 40 points drop seems to be a common opportunity over the years around this time to buy into and profit from.

At least with Pierre you can have an intelligent conversation. A rare, and fast becoming extinct, opportunity on ADVFN.

200p tomorrow???

[louis brandeis] 04/4/2024 11:45

OK, I'll post elsewhere on such issues if it upsets you so much.

I look forward to truly informative posts from those that remain here. I won't hold my breath.

Well done Skinny. Louis Brandeis Filtered.

[luderitz] 04/4/2024 11:09

Stop arguing for Pete sake.

[skinny] 04/4/2024 11:02

Oh dear.

Why not just use one of the relevant threads - like the one I've highlighted?

[skinny] 04/4/2024 10:55

I refer you to post 4656 & 4613.

[louis brandeis] 04/4/2024 10:52

Why the moderation Skinny???

In response to Louis Brandeis

That's an incorrect generalisation. Lloyda for example have a high yield, plenty of cash to fund their future and surplus cash to fund large buybacks. Ditto several other high yielders. Whether MNG is the same I'm not sure.

SO the following is not the case

--------------

This is because the high yield generally leaves no room for funding growth or replacing new assets with old.

-------------------

I'd say 'sometimes' rather than 'generally'. This due to high divi companies rebasing their divi when or before that situation arises.

If a high divi is paid, all you can say i that the cash for the divi is no longer available to the company (obviously). What effect that has depends on the company.

You certainly don't want to buy any company purely on the basis of say a 10% yield. What you also need to know, or guess, is that the divi is sustainable and preferable growing and the business is adequately funded after the high divi cost.

210p on the short list.

"I keep Aviva and have not looked at Barclays since Covid started."

It's going up - the same as Aviva!

LOL

[garycook] 04/4/2024 08:52

Topped up here. Think bottomed now from the XD. Nice 9% plus yield to buy into.

[skinny] 04/4/2024 07:14

I refer you to .

[dutchguilder] 04/4/2024 04:47

Ron, will you try to sell your Aviva before the XD is complete too?

[helen troy] 03/4/2024 17:11

Yes Ron. I have the days left until Tesco goes x divi for the prices to come into my trading range. No sweat.
