I have £1800 in here and am down £220 but have had 3 dividends. I am glad I didn’t add when I’ve been tempted to. I think this will eventually recover to the 200s one day , but it’s not a stock I’m that confident in. If it were to revisit the 135 mark I will top up £500, and reinvest my dividends either way around this level.
But it will never be more than a small holding for me I’m afraid.
Auto corrected
dedino not Definitely
Definitely
If you bought at 143p today, you will not receive the dividend in April, or have I misread your post?
Never advice, but divid picked up. Its it coincided with a jittery Wall St open that hit sentiment.
Added more at the lows today so will average out but thinking of holding for the 10% dividend and trimming at 160 170 180. No hurry, who knows what will happen.
Brought back in after selling in 2023 with a 16% profit, hoping to do the same this year with target of 20% this time.🤞🏾
Most of today’s fall is the dividend coming out, but that 3m shareprice chart is truly horrible, down 20% already this year…..I do wonder what will stop the decline and will this happen before is goes below 100p which if it happens should surely mean Bird’s time is up.
Sold this at some point in the last decade, just noted how the share count has reduced.... By a third, give them another 5 years and goodness knows what it will be. Buying on a dropping share price is a clever move by the board. Don't know if all their moves are, prob not, gla
>There's nothing to suggest
There is if you understand Technical Analysis
There's nothing to suggest that ABDN will even recover its dividend fall by next week, let alone exceed it.
Same here 143p ,final divi is 7.3p ,and fingers crossed we can see 151p next week.
Well took your advice mary. not quite 135. but 143 will do me. fingers crossed abrd now get there act together.
Yes of course you do. Especially if 135p tomorrow.
Have been invested in here for many years from when times where good. and sp at 550 when was standard life. so every time i have bought more it has dropped bought at 450.350 250. do i buy in again has it dropped as far as can go ? decision decisions lol.
Added a few more and will add on drop tomorrow.
Nice add for someone.
Ex Div this week.. top up Thurs
Unfortunately SB has no Macro type view on the way ABDRN fits into Finanacials.
Follows five year plan without making required adjustments to change plan.
Similiar to todays politicians.
How much loss has ABDN made on their share buybacks?
They sure as hell didn’t support the share price
With a market cap now down to £2.7bn including a cash pile nett of borrowings of £600m, the market values the company at £2.1bn after paying £1.5bn for ii and the platform is supposed to be valued at £1.4gn, someone must be running the rule over this. Bird is just trying to get the value down low enough (after an £800k bonus!) for a t/o and a nice retirement cheque. He is trying to cut costs without thinking the effects through - he put the contact centre out on a business park on hte west side of Edinburgh and wondered why most of the experienced staff left.
Yes, HOLD. Forget trying to make the quick buck, certainly with this Share and in these most unpredictable of times. My recollection is that on every posting I have made, even since the merger, my Opinion has been to HOLD and I shall continue to do that.
Investors Chronicle advice is to hold ,and that is what i am doing.
Another one of my LTH, another DLG would be perfect.
Limited downside, 14.6p divid & a DLG bid type play.... someone is bound to be slide ruling here yo swoop.... keeps me adding.
I agree. As well as holding Shares in Abrdn (nee Standard Life, oh how I miss those days!), I have had investments with St James's Place since 1995 and added to it over the years. I would not want SJP to have anything to do with Abrdn (not that they would anyway)
