Hi Zirp, I have been following Clipper for a while and they were close to £9 in early September and dropped to around £6.50 about a week ago. I assume the drop was linked to fuel and driver issues, but they are not massively involved in transport. They are in online retailing and returns services which seems to be continuing it's rapid growth with Clipper doing very well in the market. Not for dividend, but recovery in the share price over the next few months following a potentially short term blip. I may well of course be wrong, as I was when I sold most of mine at £7 originally thinking they had finished their run..... :)
MB, I am in Aviva and DLG which I see as a decent bet with strong dividends so I concur with first 2 picks but CLG is Clipper Logistics I assume which has a lousy yield and a poor PE. Where do you see value in that? Other financials I am tracking include MNG and ABDN which are both a bit flaky but pay great returns as long as they don't disappear a la Lloyds.
Hi Falky, LGEN, Aviva and CLG all look good options to me to make good returns on cash within the next six months on current prices.....

And remember the working mans hero, Richard Branson, when Covid hit the airlines he wanted £600 million in aid from the government, when he was told to sod off he managed with £400 million, so where was the extra £200 million going to go, no one asked that question. And Musk gets away with manipulating the Tesla shares and Bitcoin !
Tony Blairs 30yr something son, who as never done anything is now worth over £100 million by people investing in his Apprenticeship company ? ?
And Prince buffoon charlie boy, flogs passports and knighthoods to any foreigner whom gives a million or two via his foundation.
MV be fair, Sir Reginald did use some of his windfall profits to refurbish stables and rebuild a cricket pavilion on his estate. Such selfless largesse must be applauded. I believe that George Osborne's father-in-law is also a champion of Socialist values.
It is not beneath the mattress it is off shore tax havens and invested in companies making millions from subsidies like Tesla.
There has never been so many super yachts, private jets £50 million houses etc.
Then we have the scammers and people traffickers all backed by someone, who protects them, Boris is actually now one of the best people traffickers along with Patel, boats being launched daily from French beaches but no one knows whom the traffickers are, amazing Mi5 & Interpol can't even catch some thirdworld criminals in France and Belgium. No one knows where the billions scammed each years goes , but we do know that certain banks are nothing more than money laundering machines, step forward HSBC and Nat West.

There are plenty of safe places to store wealth, it is just that you and I and all the others are not allowed into the big boys clubs.
Ask Boris and Co how much they have salted away in tax havens and off shore investment schemes, Tony Blair does well for a socialist !. Boris's new chum Bill Gates is now the largest private land owner in America, land to grow bio fuels to get the subsidies ie tax payers money. David Cameron's father inlaw makes a nice penny or two from subsidies for the wind turbines on his land. The real wealthy get wealthier in any scenario for some reason.
Yes collecting is an investment old stamps coins paintings antiques ,memorabilia all good stuff to beat inflation, but buyer beware there are lots of fake and copies out there dyor and happy hunting,enjoy the day.
Hardly Falky, just a more expensive world which causing those with fewer means to make tough choices between food and heat. It was ever thus. You just need to make investment decisions that take into account the dwindling purchasing power of cash. Personally I am looking to put money into shares rather than having it sat in a bank account shrinking. Many people are doing the same calculus; if my cash is going backwards I might as well spend it, which adds to the inflationary problem especially when you run up against supply constraints. There simply are not enough safe places to secure your wealth!
Inflation is hugely understated due to manipulation using devices such as hedonic adjustment and excluding items such as healthcare, education and housing not to mention focus on CPI rather than RPI. Check out John Williams on Shadowstats.com. The country was in uproar when fuel went to 90p per litre in the late 90s. It now looks as though it like energy prices are taking off again. Oil will be $100 plus a barrel by Christmas. We are already seeing wage increases predicated on inflation and that is the point of conception where the cycle begins. Governments around the world are all spouting lies about the transitory nature of the increase. You can't print and distribute that much money and expect it to stay beneath the mattress.
"inflation is 4% and under control."
It's transitory - entire global economy's been through a crazy upheaval.
Isn't Septembers inflation figure being used to calculate next years pension increase!! mmm
Covid up ! !
The rise in petrol will stoke inflation
3.1% in Sep ? Fiddled
Over 4%

How would this impact Lloyds SP?
