Done my last post on the ODX board.

Just saying hello on the new CNSL board.

Good luck all - it is not a bad as it seems. Possible reductions in tax and interest rates may assist here too.

Shame really - I did believe this had legs pre covid.

But really with Covid, Russia/Ukraine, rocketing interest rates and Israel/Hamas companies like this have been consigned to the list of those that investors avoid in preference to the amazing prices and dividends on offer with the blue chips - and no risk either.

Probably my last post - not that I have many.

Good luck to you all.

Sure is, but having been invested here for 3 years and patiently waiting as you say, it is irksome hoe many only buy in moments before the RNS. Insiders? Perish the thought. Not grumbling to be heading into profit at long last with - the money from POG.

Actually it has been quite a long time waiting for this point in time and pleased that I stuck it out through the setbacks. Patience really does pay in the end. Must not sell for a small profit as there is much more to come.

You are right of course BUT some weak need numpties are actually selling into the smallest rise -- just unbelievable that they should hold through the difficult times and then sell just when the time is ripe for big gains. A masterclass in NOT how to invest for profit.

Yes, makes for a good re-read to remind myself why I invested few years ago now. I did sometimes wonder about MB but things haven't gone well across all of the markets for some time now. So it seemed like it was going to be a long time waiting but when it is almost here it is quite a nice feeling. Just need the discipline to keep holding - too many sell to soon.

Pity about spread but hopefully gradually investors will see past that and it will tighten.
After people invested elsewhere have sold way too soon just out of relief to get their money back (Alans55 I sympathise) one needs real discipline to hold now that 2023 is looking so much more promising than the last few years. This is one I was disappointed with for a long time but at last it seems like its time is coming. Only once have I ever made a quick buck but all bar one have come good in the end - due to patience.

Oh what a joy after waiting 2 years for MB to pull a rabbit.
Where are the doom mongers today? Up yours I say!

Thank you for your replies - appreciated.

2018 I received the 4 x dividends.
2019 I received NONE of the 3 x dividends.
2020 I presume no-one received any dividends?
2021 My statement confirms dividends in May and November but nothing in my account.
2022 Again dividends in May and November but nothing in my account.

That's 4 years without dividends - think I need to ask questions of Equiniti.
Thank you for helping me to clarify this.

Can someone help please? I have had some shares for about 10 years and lost track of what's happened on two companies - others I have managed to change from paper certificates into CREST but it hasn't been easy with COVID and I know some banks stopped dividends during Covid. My last dividend from Banco Santander was in 2018 and I cancelled the DRIP scheme in September '22.
I looked on the website but it wasn't clear to me. What and when were dividends paid from 2018 to the present day please?
Thank you.

Yep - gives a good start to my morning.

? indeed. It seems to be due in large part to the fools at Simply Wall Street sticking the knife in with four 'We thinks' in the last two months. Goes to show that 'We (SWS) don't actually know'.
To my mind, if there is nervousness about the economy, then companies will be reluctant to buy vehicles, hold onto capital and prefer to lease which will be good for Redde.

Binned for unresearched worthless comment.

Ice,
Well done for having faith in your convictions here. I have had my concerns over recent years but continued to hold quietly and glad that I did. I couldn't have foreseen Cathy appearing on the scene and think VAL have been very lucky. Be interested to see if she becomes a shareholder as well - or possibly is already. Wait and see.
Glad that I continued to hold.

Raaydaar,
I have just been quietly sat and waiting for something here but wasn't expecting Chads appointment at the end of this month but clearly good news and whilst one might have expected more 'buys' off the back of it, I am still pleased.
Think Daisy is too ready to criticise and overly pessimistic at times but hopefully should be appeased by this announcement.
Aaaand further announcement to come quite soon !

Martini,
Think many have formed similar view BUT you summarised so eloquently.
I am content BUT also patient.

Morning all,
Yes with very little cheer anywhere else and sinking values, EQT is all going in the right direction and will doubtless be attractive to those trying to find somewhere for their money where there are there are real prospects, both before year end and in future.
Soon be last opportunity for a good price before EQT becomes popular with the mainstream.

Hi SB,
When will Mont wake up to the fact that he's a laughing stock?
LB sounds nearer the mark - not sure DFS on MT will quite be a line in the sand but they must be waiting on NYUD and as he alludes to - these licences/transfers can and do take a long time and I am perfectly happy to have a large holding here.

Add Aldebaran to that.

Yep, bit bored and still holding but expecting some interest quite soon now.
