Income arising within your personal pension plan is exempt from tax. You can take 25% of your pension pot tax-free; this can either be taken as one lump sum or as multiple lump sums up to 25% of your pension pot. Your pension provider will then compute any tax due on your remaining payments (using a tax code provided to them by HMRC which allows for any personal allowance, state pension and/or other regular income) and deduct any tax due from the payment you receive (like PAYE).
You do via your tax return for '24/25
Who passes the 8.75% to HMRC. ? My current sole Tax Payer is my Pension provider and takes 20%.
A lot of profit taking today, hopefully it will now rise to the occasion of exdiv after those good results, I will be sitting tight here
Now sinking slowly but surely-bets on us finishing up in the red??
What a conundrum this share is-good divs. granted (only £500 allowed before taxable thanks to Comrade Hunt) but when there are regular bouts of significant capital reduction makes a mockery of it all.
Sorry, not just this
Yeah, disappointing that (just not) this gets sold into. Same to a lesser extent with KIE today
Only Aviva could lose good justifiable gains on the back of excellent results.
6million shares sold hints of profits being taken as the SP hits a high not seen since June 2018
Buy back starts tomorrow ( 8th March). Hopefully they spread it out during the day, but my impression on the last one was that they like to do their shopping in the morning.
Filing the gap, down from today's high at 483, and should go to 455 before heading upwards again. Wait and see.
Strange the sp has fallen back by so much from 483p. Super results, super forecasts, div up and forecast to grow extra, Blanc buying shares.. .. What more does Mr Market want? Let's hope the Analyst Upgrades boost the sp in near future !!
So have I!!
The sharp fallback today is absurd so I topped up. Can see these being bought up to over £6 over the next few months - and quite right too.
Interesting RNS at 12:26 - both Amanda Blanc and Kenneth Blanc (presumably her husband) have bought shares on the market. Around £130k total.
Yes, just think- 4 years ago we stood at £2.00. Just hope we can hang on to today's gains
Wow, this has jumped up to first place in my portfolio now ahead of lgen which was dissapointing, will be adding here sometime after exdiv
Results look good. SP looks good. Divs are good.
I've doubled money here but will just keep hold of them for a while longer and enjoy not having to worry about this one.
Yes pleased with all that, have moved AV. up in my Portfolio no longer in the Boring Category !
Excellent
The "phoney" trades (as I like to call them) are in full swing at the moment. As far as I can see on L2 (not that it really helps much these days), the share price drop seems to be primarily driven by autotrades and I suspect that the MMs may be doing a bit of treeshake as is their wont. There may be "genuine", large delayed trades behind the scenes driving the current share price drop but we will only really know for certain later in the day as the MMs release the data.
No more noise about a take ober please! This is a great company, now paying over 7.1%. Show me better. A keeper for me and not for sale.
Thanks that’s great advice, that’s the reasons I was trying to get everything into the isa. I will probably sell today but trying not to watch the share price as it’s dropped to 467p hopefully pick up this afternoon for my sell.
Thanks for the advice and explanation!
It all really depends on your personal outlook. One should never overlook a bird in the hand for two in the bush. You've doubled your money and the US markets opening are unlikely to materially increase AV's share price further today IMHO. If I was to hazard, the share price might re-test 480p again later today but nothing is ever guaranteed.
Don't forget that the CGT allowance for 23/24 is £6,000 and due to reduce to £3,000 for 24/25. So, selling at least some of your shares before 6 April to utilise your 23/24 CGT allowance and transferring the proceeds into an ISA would appear to make sense (if you've not already used your 23/24 ISA allowance).
Unless you already have the cash sitting around, don't forget that it could take 7-14 working days to sell, realise the cash proceeds and then re-invest back into an ISA. Most brokers work on at least a T+3 days settlement period - which in practise generally means that although they might allow you to re-invest the sale proceeds immediately within your trading account they'll require you to wait at least 3 working days before withdrawing the cash and/or transferring the proceeds from your trading account to an ISA, if they provide that facilit). Furthemore, if you have to withdraw the cash before investing it into a new ISA then you've not only got to wait for the funds to clear in your trading account but also wait for the funds to clear in your bank account (most brokers will take 2-3 working days to transfer funds once they've received your instruction). You will also need to factor in the time it will then take for funds to clear in your new ISA account (if you pay by debit card that should be same day but bank transfers will take longer).
Also, don't forget that bed and ISA'ing is likely to depress shares prices the later in March you leave it and likewise raise share prices after 5 April as most people are looking to sell before 6 April, utilise their 23/24 CGT allowance and re-invest post 5 April utilising their 24/25 ISA allowance.
Hope that helps.
Clearly Aviva is not firing blanks
Great performance and I see so much long term potential here. So reassuring to see an understandable and clear strategy so well communicated.
IMHO this is a £6 share in the next 18months. I haven’t heard the takeover rumours that others refer to. Although I’m in this for the investment return, I hope Aviva stays independent.
Well done Amanda and the whole team at Aviva.
Price: 474.60
Sell now or wait for US markets to open? I’ve doubled my money now and need to get stuff into isa really instead of standard trading account
