Any one know which big trusts / investment funds hold GAW?
At this level I like really looking at it at moment got a bit but very tempting crypto could go bonkers ๐ in our lifetime may go hard dyor 15 years time looking yummy ๐ I think ๐ค

Royal Mail have just released (preorder) for Warhammer stamps.
Good to see another partnership, I hope they sell well (I brought a few)
Still odd. Other than market jitters around the US debt ceiling, or leaked insider info, I can't see a reason why GAW would fall like this.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Seems to be on the dip again today.
GW is gearing up for 10th edition 40k, which is always a bumper time in the 3 year cycle, so I'm expecting good news from that. No idea why the sp went down today though.
Any thoughts on the recent decline. Is there any news out shortly?
Thank you kindly.

I went with my son who was in the tournament for two days. Outside of his matches, there was only about half a days worth of stuff to do and most of that could be spent queuing, some people queuing for 2.5hrs just to pay for stuff at tills that could be bought online cheaper or to paint. Plenty of moaning about it on reddit so although 10k tickets sold, I doubt many of those would go again.
In case you needed a bit of confirmation that you're in the right share

Great work GAW, loving what you are doing at the moment from Amazon link to new exciting story lines to models and shareholder security and returns.
Wish I brought more in the dip, keep up the good work.

Rolling 12 months is exactly 4% at today's price.
If your average is GBP 73 like mine, it's exactly 5%.
This is excellent for aa growth company. Still a buy up to GBP 100 I reckon.
Earlier this year of course means the lows last year - I am not in 2023 yet, still living in the past.
"1.5%?!! you call that nice?"
Have a look at the annual dividend flows. This is one payment , last year they made 5. This is the 4th so far this year and I would expect at least 1 more relating to the 22-23 FY.
Last year's total divi was ยฃ2.35, this payment takes this year to ยฃ2.95 with *finger in the air* maybe another ยฃ0.50 to come. That puts the divi in the region of 3-4% on current sp - not spectacular, but growing y-o-y, and if you bought in at the lows earlier this year you are more in the region of 5-6%.
1.5%?!! you call that nice?
In the words of The Fast Show, "niiiiiiiiiice!!"
