Recent interim dividends?
"Doing something right?"...recent Dividends zero or crawling to less than 1%...check this against the Board's salary & bonuses
The SP is doing very well, they must be doing something right
The daily shopping lists(RNS) from Dumb & Dumber show NO buys on the 4th Oct - the lowest SP in recent months. Just shows how off-the-ball these Board-Clowns are - they bought virtually every trading-day in past 6-months but miss out on the lowest SP day on 4th Oct. Got to laugh @ this Board-of-Misdirectors, giving no meaningful information this year.
Tomorrow, so usual drop, but then hopefully nice rise up to xmas
OWLS - Thank you
I've put an opinion in just to keep THANGLAN happy !
PERSCAP, I agree about emotion, I have some strict rules which I stick to, it takes emotion out of the game.
Each month I invest in the stock at the top of my momentum list and hold for 12 months then sell.
I bought CNA at the start of January so another 3 months before I sell, I hope my 70% gain doesn't drift away.
Momentum has done me well over time although the last 3 years have been tough.
It was good while it lasted.
PersCap - Amber Drudge buying a 1000 shares from unjust bonus is hardly "a good sign"
& why does no-one set the OPINION box?
Note sure OWLS, that's all emotion-based (joy at being great, anger at perceived manipulation)...best to be keep emotions turned off. Agree most investors are emotional, which I guess is your core point.
Averages aren't often a great measure...see drowned statistician crossing a river which was an average of 3 feet deep....mostly 2inches but 20feet in one spot...also, most brokers/analysts aren't that brilliant, if they were they'd not be researching companies and sitting at a desk writing notes but using their special market-beating talents to...erm...beat the markets and relaxing on a beach someplace.
Fundamentals for CNA, at the moment, look amazing. Free cashflow impressive, evidenced by the share buyback. My analysis could be wrong, but it's what my stops are in place for...can definitely go lower if an ii's rebalancing oversized portfolio from recent increases here...more of a forced sell than weakness. Directors all buying also a good sign. If I get stopped out and it goes lower, will re-evaluate and likely repurchase if nothing fundamental's changed.
Owls...you know me so well
hanging on for £1.95
Hopefully a lot of the profit taking/re balancing of portfolios for the end of quarter is out of the way.
When the share price goes up it's because we are fantastic investors. When it goes down it's because of crooked market manipulation.
Average target price of 15 brokers as 175p and these tend to be optimistic.
End of quarter tomorrow
Ex-date is 5 October, paid 16th November. Was going to sell given price action but checked fundamentals and drop makes no sense bar technicals showing overbought. So seems a healthy pullback. Trailing 12 month operating profits are £7.321bn for a market cap of £8.68bn and net cash position of £2.8bn. Seems a no-brainer to hold/buy more...broker note senseless too so can only wonder if it's an attempt to trigger a drop given over-heated technicals and their own unknown agenda. Plus the recent CNA deals just add to the positives.
Longtime - my opinion doesn't destroy a share price sunshine. Understand?
LM
XD's are on a Thursday. The interim divi is for 1.33p
Reinstate the divi?
I thought it was going ex-div on 4th October...
Total manipulation hence all the very large buys after hours.soon to reinstate the divi me thinks.a hold for me .

''manipulate''
''It's nothing more than pure theft.''
there is no manipulation or theft - analysts at Liberum have given an opinion . There have been different opinions expressed. It is the holders of shares and potential new investors who decide what opinion if any from a third party they wish to agree with and then take appropriate action.
Some investors would agree with an analysis ,that would support much higher share price projections coming from other sources, and so will be purchasing shares.
Utter crooks. It's so easy for these 'experts' to manipulate. It's an absolute fcckin disgrace and it needs to be tackling once and for all.
It's nothing more than pure theft.
I concur tep1. There's always an agenda with these brokers. I bought more this morning.
Breaking: with share price just under 3 times earnings Liberum indicate a sell rating with poor reasoning or context. I look forward to their change in view next week when they have loaded up.
Hopefulkybwill drop some more so i can fill my buy order.
