Pound getting weaker even more great for Micro and dividends.

[montyhedge] 11/1/2017 08:20

Analyst on Bloomberg said £ could be 1.10 to dollar, by the end of the year, wow boosts our dividends.

[montyhedge] 09/1/2017 10:48

These are my calculations for return of funds. They said $400m return to shareholders if deal goes through, that's roughly £327m with the weak pound, say £1.22 to dollar. 229m shares in issue, equals return of £1.42 special dividend. If normal dividend 80c as well this year at £1.22 to the dollar that's another 65p. Surprised I can't see a analyst who as picked this up yet. May be wrong but think I'm right.So my calculation 207p return in dividends this year.That's with the £ at 1.22 to the dollar.

GS said the £ going to be weaker 2017, yippee bigger payout for us.

PhillisThere is a filter button, you just been filtered, suggest you filter me.Shareholders this year, should have nearly a 200p return in payments. The weaker the £ the better.

Oh dear, our attention-seeking simpleton is trying to convince himself that he will not be nursing yet another loss. As soon as he has sold out, it will be back to his usual bilge of:

Target 1935p they said flat to -2% revenue. So what is going to shift this price up, p.e 35 deal with HP not until 3rd quarter 2017.

Time for a protection order?

[montyhedge] 05/1/2017 12:42

So special dividend of 132p, plus normal dividend forecast 75p this year.This is a cash cow that just keeps giving.

[orange1] 05/1/2017 08:47

Typical ¨next year we´ll be millionaires¨ bilge from our resident fool who glosses over the fact that his latest gamble has left him out of pocket, again.

[montyhedge] 05/1/2017 08:15

At least this year we get our special dividend around 132p at current exchange rates.

[montyhedge] 04/1/2017 08:02

Ex tomorrow 23.6p payable 27th January, nice to have in the bag.

[montyhedge] 03/1/2017 12:28

[montyhedge] 03/1/2017 11:13

Just bought some more for my isa, dividend tax free when ex div on Friday.

[phillis] 03/1/2017 10:52

More blather in 2017 then

[montyhedge] 03/1/2017 10:25

Start of the US tax year for US investors, of course the big tech winners like Micro up 70% they may just take profits on there big winners this week. We will have to wait and see.

[montyhedge] 02/1/2017 11:33

Should fall 30p then ex div date always does.

[sogoesit] 02/1/2017 09:57

Ex-dividend 5th January for 23.6p payable 27 January.

[sogoesit] 28/12/2016 13:06

I think we will see old highs surpassed in New Year as the HPE deal progresses to fruition. Who knows it might consummate earlier than 3Q.

[montyhedge] 28/12/2016 11:38

Up 28p on 60,000 shares traded, thin market.

[discodave4] 24/12/2016 15:32

Shouldn't bother with Monty, clueless, was forecasting 1545 for Shell in March.............it's gone up over 50% since then.Given Micro report in $ and 50% of group Rev is US, then Trumps possible 20% reduction in corp tax will help earnings.DD

[montyhedge] 22/12/2016 10:57

Yes, but 1.85% yield not brilliant, not a income stock, more growth stock.

[ringer12] 21/12/2016 18:09

Well it looks like Richard Atkins and Wife/Daughter? have filled their Isa allowance for the year.

Perhaps a hint to put our divi into next years allowance or this years if you have any unused balance.

[phillis] 21/12/2016 14:14

cant stop it seems
