Tax is paid on profit less your capital gain and cost of the shares

I brought standard life shares over 5 years ago on the IG platform. Since the buy back Standard life did 2 years ago - my shares are showing profit 200% although they were brought for over 3.50. When I sell these shares - how will my profits show up? The price i originally brought them at or the price following buy back?

To those that do not know ,Remember sell before April 2nd each year to take out your capital gain , or lose it ,And it talked three days to settle ,And this is why shares drop this week

Mcunliffe . I never panic I just add more if they fall to always keep my avge around the same dip pockets

portside1,

there's a simplistic elegance to your explanation that the div is 5% yet the bank only pays 0.001 (% presumably).

There's the risk element of course with the SLA shares but no risk with a bank deposit (below £85k).

You keep on adding a few.

[mcunliffe1] 25/3/2021 09:03

portside1,

perhaps the "minnows" needed to sell.
Why are they minnows by the way?

I can see your point that at a low share price the div appears decent. But, remember, the div. is not guaranteed.

[portside1] 25/3/2021 08:14

Having only started to buy yesterday it means a 14.6 p div over the next 6 months that's very nice will buy more selling some Bp to buy more

recent holdings in SL are they all buys or sells any thoughts

Deutsche Bank upped its recommendation on shares of Standard Life Aberdeen on Thursday to 'buy' from 'hold' and lifted the price target to 335.0p from 310.0p.

It said SLA has been through the trenches since its merger but the new chief executive and new group targets offer a clear focus as to how the current headwinds can be addressed.

"Even on our assumption of only partial delivery, we now see core fund management profits doubling over the next three years - with further upside in 2024. This in turn implies a 33% uplift to our 2023 estimated profit forecast," it said.

"While we recognise that we could be a little early given that the improved earnings will only begin to emerge next year, we believe that net flows have already started responding to an improved investment performance."

Extra evidence of this in the next few months skews the risk more towards the upside than the downside, it added.

"Meanwhile, the valuation (a look-through price-to-earnings of just 7.4x on the core business) appears to give no credence to a possible recovery," DB concluded.
