24/8/2017 20:22 | thanks edmundshaw - I was going to go through in more detail later - you have just saved me some time! | fenners66 | |
24/8/2017 20:16 | Having looked in some detail at the results for any hint that there may be negative news that it took a while for institutions to assimilate, I have failed to find anything. There is a bigger pension contribution than last year, but that is simply a timing difference (it will be reversed therefore in the second half). Various additional synergies have been found, and the negative of lower-than-expected interest rates is more than cancelled by the positives(?) of changed actuarial assumptions showing a slow down of mortality improvements. There are some nice tidbits, such as the offset of longevity risk in annuities by life assurance (Sun Life), and the advantages from customers with non-GAR pension pots encashing each month (so freeing up cash from capital buffers). The subordination of debt was obviously a useful exercise for onshoring. All in all, a nicer than expected set of results. I guess today we saw the market voting machine taking precedence over the weighing machine... | edmundshaw | |
24/8/2017 19:51 | About 6.47% and just ticking along, well if it falls back a bit more I may be tempted for some more | fenners66 | |
24/8/2017 17:49 | Well that was disappointing. A nice start to the day, only to lose all the gains as the day progressed. I genuinely don't understand why this share is not more popular - there cannot be many options as low risk as Phoenix delivering a 6% plus dividend stream. Cheers, PJ | pj fozzie | |
24/8/2017 16:14 | There were better singers, but she had such a soulful voice, you could feel the pain when she sang. | essentialinvestor | |
24/8/2017 13:45 | perhaps someone who does not know which day of the week it is , should not be responsible for handling investments... | fenners66 | |
24/8/2017 10:24 | Perhaps someone should look up the lyrics to a song by Dusty Springfield. | arf dysg | |
24/8/2017 09:50 | Very encouraging. R2 | robsy2 | |
24/8/2017 09:45 | hiddendepths (2366) "Impressive! [...] these figures were released on a Friday" Someone should write a song about that: "Only twenty-four hours to Friday... Only one day away from results; I hate to do this to you, but I've bought something new" ? Ought to be a massive hit. Sounds familiar somehow... | arf dysg | |
24/8/2017 09:04 | hiddendepths - I doubt any mid- long-term holders here have been confused, though one chartist posted here a few months back and insisted that the chart was the chart and should not be adjusted. | jonwig | |
24/8/2017 08:55 | The bonus element of rights issues makes a mockery of most charts! The unadjusted dividend data also makes it look as if there was a dividend cut but that too is effectively an illusion as the company tried to explain! Easy to see sentiment being affected by simplistic analyses in cases like this! | hiddendepths | |
24/8/2017 08:23 | For those who bought in before the Rights Issue, a current price of 785p is equivalent to a pre-rights price of 946.6p. That would be progress for just about everybody... | edmundshaw | |
24/8/2017 08:21 | Lord Gnome - doh! | hiddendepths | |
24/8/2017 08:05 | Positive reaction to good results so far. Happy I chose this as my income play after taking a long time to decide. | lauders | |
24/8/2017 07:57 | Sir Clive now .... | my retirement fund | |
24/8/2017 07:55 | Clive cowdry a genius | my retirement fund | |
24/8/2017 07:54 | Very happy | my retirement fund | |
24/8/2017 07:50 | hiddendepths - It's Thursday! | lord gnome | |
24/8/2017 07:44 | So they're virtually paying the same dividend as before the rights issue, on enlarged capital. And in the market for future acquisitions - maybe! | jonwig | |
24/8/2017 07:42 | By the time I buy some Phoenix, she'll be rising... | danieldruff2 | |
24/8/2017 07:40 | Especially with accerating cash generation. | hvs | |
24/8/2017 07:40 | Impressive! A rerating looks to be in order. The only issue I have is that these figures were released on a Friday in August just ahead of the Bank Holiday. Maybe the City won't notice until September! | hiddendepths | |
24/8/2017 07:30 | Much better than expected Interims,with great cash flow,and a 50.20p Full year dividend yielding 6.5%.This should be good going forward for the share price | garycook | |
24/8/2017 07:30 | Very happy with those results. | rcturner2 | |
