Online schools already pay VAT so if Labour get in, this should level the playing field and allow better competition between the two...

Pearson are big in online education....

Actually the update was at the end of April:

"
Omar Abbosh, Pearson’s Chief Executive, said:
“The year has started well. Financial performance was in line with our expectations, thanks to strong execution
across the business, and we maintain a sharp focus on delivering against the priorities that I outlined. The
year is unfolding as we anticipated, and we continue to expect an acceleration of growth in the second half,
which will see us achieve our guidance for the full year. We look forward to providing an update on our
strategic progress with our half year results in July.”
"

Psst in MARCH they said:
"
Positive outlook for 2024 and 2025 in line with expectations and Group guidance unchanged. Free
cash flow expected to further improve next year due to lower restructuring cash costs.

"

So if 2024 is going to be good when should we expect the next news?

JULY 29th Interim Results and Strategic update.

Might get a trading update next week (we had one at the end of April last year)...

I guess I need to live and let live....

Could it be that the over done fall was related to tracker funds rebalancing after huge BT rise today?

[netcurtains] 16/5/2024 11:43

I think I'll buy a few more on hope its a bit over done...

Thanks Blackhorse:
I noticed RELEX also fell today - so perhaps its not dividend date but FTSE100 firms that do most of their business in the USA...

Perhaps dollar fell? Or USA economy beginning to shrink?

Just done some research: Persimmon profits more than halve but dividend maintained, probably can not maintain dividends at coming days , profit warning issued at past

[netcurtains] 16/5/2024 08:20

Why the massive fall today?

Makes no sense....

Why do people sell on dividend payment day?

Is this a normal event?

A buying opportunity?

A good education always pays in the end.....
