Share Price Information for Aviva (AV.)
London Stock Exchange
Share Price: 353.20 Bid: 386.70 Ask: 318.70 Change: -1.70 (-0.48%)
when this is produced on a daily basis at times by this site for all shares (massive spread differences) is it any indication as to the real price if the % of shorts were reduced to 0? (ie 3.86) and the downward presuure that occurs in order to manipulate any share further down? so 3.18, maybe a liitle further to go possibly 3.40.
remain long regardless, but may add further, am wary of buying at this price as feel the market will manipulate it down nearer 3.4
Hi nuri123a - when i look at a 5 year investing history, then by far the majority of time SP has been North of 430-440p with occasional dips into the 370 ranges on 3 occasions, so all in all 100% agree with your taking a long haul view. I suppose that as i purchased Jan 19 then majority of time has been downwards and i may feel different if i had enjoyed some of the 420 430p ranges. We have exchanged view previously and i fully subscribe to all your comments re financial strength, but maybe i am licking my wounds after 410 - 415p purchases. I will look forward to the Sept divi and try to not worry. My dilema is with substantial cash still available, should i snap up AV whilst cheap and then in 2-3 years reap the reward, or am i frightened off by the recent and possible crap share price for next few weeks / months etc. Also I am concerned that for whatever reason, AV is not a "darling" of the investment markets, and cannot wonder why with such strong financials. What do the guru's know that I dont as a humble home bound investor?? The new team hasn't had time to shine, but judging against share price performance there must be worried faces at AVHQ. looking at the last 5 years SP this is one of the lowest SP prices ever, again good time to buy in, or be scared for a reason?? Suppose that's the whole crux of share investing.... lets hope for sunnier days. Again, does the PRU merger have any substance do you believe??
prussell - if you are impatient to make quick money - my advice is sell up. I am in for the long run - this is an extremely well-capitalised company - £11.8 billion spare capital and cash spare almost £3 billion. This weakness may continue for a few weeks / months - one has to be prepared. At over 5 times earnings - my next move is buying more - gladly pay £3.50 all the way up to £6.... long term game mate!
My flirtation with AV since Jan 19 has only really delivered dissatisfaction, apart from decent divi. Having benefited from the Greene King take over unless AV share price recovers North of 420p then it's no.longer an attractive hold share. Jam tomorrow doesn't pay today's bills. Are the PRU merger rumours current. Cover story is undated and nothing else current on Google. Getting very nervous holding 30k of AV stock.
12 month low-the market obviously rather jaundiced about management probs. and the prospect of more of the integration problems with companies taken over that Aviva has suffered over the years, should the much rumoured merger with the Pru take place. Chaos will reign supreme
Super stupid share price - valued at over 5 times earnings....! wow... rare to see shares of solid companies valued so little!
Based on the fact most of the people mentioned have moved on it looks like poor journalism/click bait.
No seems to believe any rumours as the share price makes a modest tick up...
Looking again rumours have been floating around since 2011.

Article seemingly undated.
Has anyone information on a rumoured takeover bid for Aviva
