Could anyone tell me what the uk tax on dividends is these days. I thought I heard something about a drastic increase which was in or is coming in a budget? There are lots of juicy divs around at the moment but not much use if a good slice will be lost (squandered) by government. I can squander it better! tx in advance, L
The shares i mentioned all pay quarterly dividends; BP 8.5p a share; British Land 6.5p a share; Land Securities 7p a share; I think GSK is 13p a share. all paid quarterly and offer drip's too. Look into it and prepare to retire...
"All of the key numbers still pointed down in Land Securities’ half-year figures, but the property giant is confident 'that from the low point in July 2009 property values will rise over the next five years'. Chief executvie Francis Selway added the ride may be bumpy with the profile of price rises characterised by ripples rather than pure straight-line growth and LandSecs will be careful in choosing its opportunities."
i bought at 440p so i am quite pleased
the progress bagsy
1600P IN 2 YEARS
Ticking up slowly, looking good.
Thanks for the link, will have a good look later and run it by my consultant, Mr C Savignon. Craig.
a bit like a head and shoulders chart formation there...
Am looking to invest in a company when I cash in my BARC shares after Q3 results (early Nov), this is on my shortlist along with III, HTG. Can anyone tell me when the divi is due? Still learning, any advice / opinions welcome. Thanks.
poor old land no -one wants it ? but i do lol.
possibilities- burst-no-too large, biggest in UK- steady-maybe for a while- rising-not at moment but should by next year. Conclusion-a hold but just pocket good dividends while waiting for next years' rises...
many messages here,is anyone alive
.....and price gone up lol
i m thinking to buy this one for long term.....can you guys put your views forward to help me in deciding......wat is good entry point......looks good to me giving dividend four times a year ............. please advice me
For me this is a medium to long term hold - The company is based on retail bricks and mortar so is bound to be at a low point at the moment and to add to it's woes it is also in a state of change at the moment. I don't rule out a change of leadership before year end (could be a good thing), but the company is still operating at a profit and when the up turn comes then the SP will rise significantly. all said IMO, DYOR etc. etc.
All I read is that Many analyst are confused at what this company is doing. some are saying outperform, 1 is saying hold, 1 is saying sell, 1 is saying add. Can anyone give me a straight forward answer to what we should be doing with these stocks, it is quiet confusing?
“On an individual stock level Citi has recommended Hammerson and British Land as “buys”. The former’s price target has been lifted from 241p to 351p while the latter is tipped to rise to 453p, up from the previous price target of 366p.”
Land Securities London head quits abruptly http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/article6509136.ece
"Mike Hussey, the managing director of the London portfolio of property giant Land Securities is to leave the company at the end of June. The company said the decision for Husssey to step down from the board and leave the company was by mutual agreement, following a major change in the strategic direction of the company. During the time Land Securities was preparing to split itself into three quoted companies Hussey had been lined up to be the chief executive of one of those companies, but the company has since abandoned its demerger plans."
The chief executive of Land Securities, Francis Salway, has been given six months to come up with a radical business plan for the FTSE 100 property giant – or face being sacked. Alison Carnwath, the new chairwoman, has laid down the gauntlet after a set of shocking results this month, which saw the company plunge to a loss of £4.8 billion. There is thought to be growing concern among the firm’s independent directors that it has lost direction. The outcome of the review will determine the futures of Salway and Mike Hussey, the group’s second in command, reports the Sunday Times.
at £4.59. Broke all my self imposed rules buying these ones (not near enough to lows), which have meant i have never sold a share at a loss. But if the fall, i will top up, and if they rise, happy days. Personally, i hope they fall further first, but i got in just in case they don't. Property is usually a safe bet long-term, and i am now buying with that in mind, as i find buying and selling quickly is very time-consuming. I doubled my money in a week on Barclays, but if i had kept them - it would have been 6x my investment. I quick buck is not always the best option, unless you have the time to keep re-investing.
Got up specially to buy these this morning, after yesterdats fall. They dropped to £4.40 in early trading and i went to make a cuppa. Came back and missed the boat. What a numpty.
