Im with SSE ...cost of gas welcome but the reduction starts on April 30 when my usage will drop substancially .
I'll still be paying full whack for the next cold weeks.

Why couldn't they drop it immediately ?

Petrol now falls quite quickly

With most punters being on fixed contracts all the suppliers are announcing cuts but keeping the fact in the small print that these cuts will not be for them. A great publicity ploy and so will not hit the bottom line.
A great steady set of results.

As long as it creeps up again over the next few days.

[gbb483] 22/1/2015 08:23

Drop is less than the dividend, so net positive.

[gbb483] 21/1/2015 18:43

Ex Div tomorrow

[skinny] 21/1/2015 07:37

Hmmmm -

· Competition developing too slowly in market for new electricity grid connections
· Ofgem's reforms look to increase competition and reduce hassle for customers connecting to the electricity grid
· Ofgem launches an investigation to see whether SSE put its competitors at a disadvantage in the electricity connections market

more.....

Ex dividend tomorrow.

[jayson26jay] 19/1/2015 22:29

Shareholders. 5% is a years profit?

[philo124] 19/1/2015 22:18

5% cut applies to gas not electric. £37 a year who cares?

[jayson26jay] 19/1/2015 21:36

These now could either match the reduction in energy prices and agree to lower profits or they should see their customers flock to cheaper suppliers. I am assuming they fully hedged for their price freeze, what would happen if they find they don't have enough customers for this energy and end up being exposed to those falls in the wholesale market? Is that likely?

[philo124] 16/1/2015 17:58

It certainly purrs.

[redartbmud] 16/1/2015 14:43

Indeed. I was out most of yesterday and missed the dip. Got in @£14.80 & bits, to add to my holding.

[redips2] 16/1/2015 14:37

Brumm Brumm !

[wad collector] 16/1/2015 09:15

A sound investment :-)
With 535hp make sure your life insurance is sufficient!

[philo124] 15/1/2015 18:13

Yes, just a 4 year old XF,from new 25k on clock,, V8 5Litre 535hp. ;-).
I wasted so much money on women in my life so I decided one day to buy something for myself.

[lord gnome] 15/1/2015 17:49

Obviously just an old Jag then PHILO if it needs an MoT. :-))

[skinny] 15/1/2015 16:30

Unfortunately so does 13 quid looking at the chart.

[philo124] 15/1/2015 16:25

Had to go out for Jag MOT otherwise would have waited; had raised c£45K in cash from sales.Bought half "unit" as I said to my broker that 1450 looked on looking at charts.

[scottishfield] 15/1/2015 16:21

bought here today as well.

[lord gnome] 15/1/2015 15:59

You and me both, wad. PHILO's buy is starting to look good. Maybe we won't sink to 1450 after all. Tomorrow will tell.

[wad collector] 15/1/2015 13:36

Ah , the retrospectoscope!

I am excellent at deciding when the low point was reached ; just give me a week or two afterwards.

[lord gnome] 15/1/2015 09:58

I think you should have waited for 1450. This is still dropping like a stone!

[philo124] 15/1/2015 08:37

Bought this am for ISA.
