Halifax HPI m/m is four times the forecast, should give the share price a boost today.

FTSE operates a reserve list for the FTSE 100 Index, to be used in the event of a corporate action occurring between reviews e.g. merger, acquisition, delisting or suspension. In such cases, the reserve list constituent with the largest market capitalisation (on the date of the corporate action) will replace the outgoing constituent. With immediate effect, the following reserve list for FTSE 100 will be used (in alphabetical order):

• 3i Group
• Berkeley Group Holdings
• Direct Line Insurance Group
• Merlin Entertainments
• Ocado Group
• Taylor Wimpey

The reserve list is normally used for forced changes to the list in between reviews (usually merger or acquisition removing a current constituent, occasionally company collapse [eg Polly Peck]).

[bluerunner] 05/3/2014 21:06

What is the significance of the reserve list? Is there still a chance TW could be included?

Appreciate the help, I don't normally buy Dividend paying shares but this year I seem to have accumulated a few.

[speedsgh] 05/3/2014 17:23

gbh2 - note that the shares go ex-dividend 2 business days prior to the record date. so for the special dividend the record date is fri 6/6, ex-div date is weds 4/6 which means that you will need to hold TW. shares at close of business on tues 3/6 in order to qualify for the special dividend.

see (remove ---s between i-i-i)

[speedsgh] 05/3/2014 17:16

uknighted - payment of 0.47p on 21/5/14 (ex-div 9/4/14) is the final dividend for FY2013. special dividend of 1.54p payable on 3/7/14 (ex-div 4/6/14) comes under FY2014. the next regular payment after that will be the interim dividend for FY2014 (normally paid in Sept).

Just had a read thorough and its the close of business 6th of June, thanks again.

[libertine] 05/3/2014 16:21

XD 4th June

[gbh2] 05/3/2014 16:11

Thanks ukn, I was being a lazy sod, but I'll have a read through :(

[uknighted] 05/3/2014 16:09

I think it is 6th June. Just check the 26/02 Results RNS for exact details.

[gbh2] 05/3/2014 16:01

Anyone noticed a qualifying date for special dividend?

[uknighted] 05/3/2014 15:29

Interim 21/05/14 0.47p, Special 03/07/14 1.54p plus hopefully a Final in September.
July 2015 the special divi is 6.16p.

[homeboy35] 05/3/2014 14:29

Nice divvy in total then!

[uknighted] 05/3/2014 13:17

The "special dividend" is in addition to the interim and final dividends.

TW.highlighted on one of IC's value stock screens yesterday as one of only 16 stocks passing their "value and growth" test. This is a short snippet from the article:

... but the market was unimpressed that Taylor Wimpey has set itself a lower bar for shareholder payouts with a special dividend of just 1.54p planned for this year followed by 6.15p in 2015 and probably more thereafter if the market remains strong. My screen, however, is not interested in exactly how a company's underlying value is distributed and has simply honed in on the strong growth forecast and robust financial position the company now boasts.

[battue2] 05/3/2014 10:21

gbh2 yes buying far outweighs sells. nothing specific here.

[markie7] 05/3/2014 09:50

next time - fine to wait, good value now. excellent 2014/15 ISA choice I'd say, especially before it gets into FTSE

Wild swings like we have seen this week, highlight the share price in this company has been manipulated for a long time and will do in the future. MM are making a bloody fortune............because they can.

[gbh2] 05/3/2014 08:57

Looked more like it was walked down this morning to fill an order.

[valedo] 05/3/2014 08:48
