I too believe PHNX is 'toppy'. Unfortunately, I had that same belief on 1st May 2025 and sold 1200 PHNX at £5.92.

That said, £3k of the £7k cash recovered went on SDIP on 6th June buying 454 at £6.597 each.

I'm looking for dividend income and PHNX definitely provides that - but so does SDIP.

Net, on Friday evening and yesterday morning there was a discussion on the YLD thread about SDIP and the question was asked of me "where did you find SDIP?".

It appears that I gained the insight from you net, in October 2025 on this PHNX thread. Thank you net.

I have always been more comfortable buying LGEN as opposed to PHNX.

The reasoning behind my going into PHNX was the dividend yield pure and simple 11.2%
Similarly with ABDN the yield was 11.75%

A lot of uncertainty at times with regard to the dividends being maintained hence the opportunity for those brave or foolish enough to go in.

Nothing much has changed in my view

I still have doubts as to how the dividend is arrived at in the case of PHNX but here above 600 those doubts remain.

Still some way to go until we receive the perceived dividend and in line with another poster and past actions think the full year dividend should come in around 55.35

I have switched back out of PHNX back into LGEN now just holding a modest amount but still keeping my 31% float

Caution still the order of the day

fenners66 gets it !
And of course it's not all about the dividend yield, although it's tempting to invest in high yielders. Something like SEIT has a massive yield currently, but risk too high IMHO. And I must admit I was late to the party with the tech trade. But thanks to Trump I managed to stock up on ATT (mainly Mag-7 stocks) on the recent drop so up double digits there, despite a dividend yield of, wait for it ... 0%.
There's no perfect way to invest/trade - not losing money is a good rule #1, so I tend to stick with low-medium risk these days. ATB (and apologies for clogging up a board starting with what was meant to be a light-hearted comment).

MD - not sure they understood the tone of your post which I see has a touch of humour alongside the "nice problem"

Hopefully the shareprice doesn't go up too much - at dividend yield 5% or so I'd have to start looking around / researching again - very inconvenient ;-)

But if anyone (Spud?) wants to criticise the thrust of the dilemma I don't think they see the advantages...

Lets assume that PHNX does rise as high as £10 + and you capital gain is 60-100% ( not done the maths) that's great but the gain is not guaranteed to be permanent.
What has been long term is PHNX's yield but at 5% that may well be only 55% of what could be available elsewhere.

Or in other words your income could rise by 81% by switching to another hi yielder instead.
Then the "very inconvenient " kicks in as to which share could be just as dependent over time for the yield - BUT and its a big but , if you have an 81% yield differential to play with then either the new share's yield has to fall a long way or PHNX would have to rise unbelievably for your income to fall.

I'm sure everyone can get it - the opportunity cost - of say NOT moving savings from a bank account paying 2% to one paying 3.6% , so why the reluctance to look at the current yield ?

Its where the long term income is best from NOW that matters , not what the yield was on your purchase , for an income investor.

I said before I didn't understand the metrics and how they were able to continue paying a dividend far in excess of its immediate peers.

I am not at all acquainted with the noise of the terms 'ebtda ' and such as others obviously are.

I am far too old and lazy to revisit an O'level I failed.

I can work out a dividend and the appeal of PHNX was when it was paying a dividend of over 10 % like a few others .

I do not hold on to shares for any given length of time a return of over 20% satisfies me and if I can collect a decent dividend into the bargain it suffices and I am off looking for the next bargain.

A case in point being Sabre just recently not a share I have much to do with but it popped up on the radar and I had a little punt as did a few others and was very fortunate to be on the right side at the right time .

Still hold a few PHNX but has gone from being my largest holding to a much more manageable level.

Is looking a lot better today than when it fell like a stone to the 450 level from whence it has been a long haul back to these giddy heights.

I think Trump is behaving as if he is still in a reality TV show and what Biden said a few days ago sums him up.

keeping my powder dry for time being and ignoring all the bombast.

Good luck to each and everyone

If PHNX divi increases by even 2% next time (October), prospective yield for 2025-2026 is:

9.3% at 600p
7.9% at 700p
7.0% at 800p

I think PHNX has a long way to go, especially in a lower interest rate environment which is rapidly approaching, imo.

The way its going today, we will soon be back to normal, with LGEN having a slightly lower dividend yield than PHNX...

I have been getting a fair amount of stick and disparaging comments as regards my holdings in PHNX and why I have chosen to sell.

Is very simple the dividend yield has dropped below 9.25 and is now getting very close to dropping below 9%.

While this is perfectly respectable under the current circumstances and in line with a lot of others past movements in this share and the share price behaviour in the last few years behove me to be very cautious at these 'nose bleed' levels.

Will look again as the dividends land but for now content to see how it all plays out.

Not intent on doing anything now ahead of the long weekend so good luck to everyone.

From fool -

This FTSE 100 hidden gem now yields a stunning 9.9% a year, so should I buy more?
Simon Watkins
I first took notice of FTSE 100 insurance and investment giant Phoenix Group Holdings (LSE: PHNX) in March 2023.
My stock screener had flagged the stock because its yield had shot up to around 10%. By comparison, the average yield for the FTSE 100 was 3.7% at the time, and for the FTSE 250, it was 3.3%.
Its payout had hit this extraordinary level because its share price had dropped after the failure of Silicon Valley Bank. That ignited fears of a new financial crisis, pushing stock prices in the sector lower.
Given no change to a stock’s annual dividend, its yield moves in the opposite direction to its price.
Since then, the company’s consistently ultra-high yield has generated a lot of dividend income for me. It had also given me a significant share price gain before the US announced its swingeing tariffs on 2 April.
History has repeated itself, it seems to me. The resultant fall in Phoenix Group’s share price has pushed its yield up to a whopping 9.9%.
Does the business still look solid to me?
Ultimately, a firm’s earnings powers its share price and dividend higher.
I think a short-term risk to these for Phoenix Group could be a global recession that prompts customers to cancel policies.
However, consensus analysts’ estimates are that Phoenix Group’s earnings will grow by a stunning 91.6% a year to end-2027.
Such projections look well-supported to me by its 2024 results. These showed IFRS adjusted operating profit soaring 31% year on year to £825m. Operating cash generation leapt 22% to £1.403bn over the same period.
As a result, the firm increased its total cash generation target to £5.1bn from £4.4bn by end-2026. Its IFRS adjusted operating profit target was also upgraded to around £1.1bn from £900m by the same point.
How much passive income can be made?
Investors considering a holding of £11,000 – the average UK savings amount – in Phoenix Group would make £1,089 in first-year dividends. This would rise over 10 years on the same average yield to £10,890. And after 30 years on the same basis, the dividends would have increased to £32,670.
Crucially though, these returns could be far greater if the standard investment practice of ‘dividend compounding’ were used. This just involves reinvesting dividends paid by a stock straight back into it.
Using this technique the dividends would see the dividends rise to £18,484 after 10 years not £10,890. This is with the same average 9.9% yield being applied to the same £11,000 initial stake.
On the same basis, the dividends would increase to £200,815 rather than £32,670.
Adding in the £11,000 first investment and the Phoenix Group Holding would be worth £211,815.
So by that point, it would pay £20,970 a year in dividend income.
Should I buy more?
I believe the extremely strong forecast earnings growth will drive the dividend and share price much higher over time.
Indeed, a discounted cash flow analysis shows the fair value of the stock is now £8.18. Market forces could push it lower or higher, of course.
And analysts forecast that its dividend will rise to 55.8p in 2025, 57.3p in 2026, and 58.8p in 2027.
These would give respective yields of 10.2%, 10.5%, and 10.7%.

Beaten the larks to it this morning.
Promises to be another lovely spring day

Cassini makes very valid points.
I voted leave as I saw that while we were obeying the European Directives France and Germany were pretty much doing what suited their economy and asking us to pay for it.

I digress

I am beginning to think that those analysts who made the call at 540 as fair value for PHNX might just have been more clued up than most of us.

I did indeed sell PHNX at 570 level before x dividend but I then balanced that by buying CSN at 271 which I am still struggling to turn.

The dividend helps but Trumps asinine statements are not making it any easier.

As I said elsewhere I have locked? in projected yields above 11 % for PHNX ABDN& MNG
so can't be too unhappy but the current situation does not appear to be getting any better.

I will have to sell something to play any further part in the current shenanigans which I am not able to do at moment.

Did free up 5000 yesterday but that is very light considering the wild gyrations of the market.

The dividends payment days cannot arrive soon enough

I wish everyone the best of luck over next few weeks.

We will need it
