It’s not as simple as wanting stocks to stay cheap or go lower to buy more. Generally divi stocks rise as the dividend increases , thereby keeping equilibrium in the market . If one stock is cheaper than its competitor , more will buy it and the price will rise.

Take legal and general. In 2003 you could buy at 90p a share, but the price has almost tripled as the dividend has too.

The trick isn’t just to buy when cheap it’s to buy early, either before a company grows, or while you’re young enough to see appreciation and compounding

Because I bought £10k worth earlier this year at 104-111p and got the divi to come.

I’m over weight so I’ve played it right, buy more but use the divi elsewhere. That’s not to say Bt isn’t a good price . It is. If it goes lower I’ll reinvest.

Don’t think I’ll be topping up at 138 with my divi

Bought in at £24.50, small position. Won’t be adding

Codger just called me a prat but said no name calling

David Philips Mandy resurfaced the moment someone said the bb is calm. Do one you old codger

Lgen is good for pension or bought young and milk Divis for 30 years

Sub 130 would be nice for a divi reinvestment but who knows where this goes . Long term, up 🚀

The bells the bells!

No, not Quasimodo . It’s Mandy at the off-licence . Sunday bank hol special offer.

Not sure why I didn’t buy more , house builders in the uk are a good stock to own the stock market and culture towards housing in the uk will always see the big builders do ok

I’m not buying more shares past the age of 45. I want plenty time to get divis and get out before I croak it.

Shares are to give me a very early retirement and take it easy, not to be taxed into oblivion after mindlessly saving until death

£12750 on pension or dividends I mean

If they reduce the £325 plus £175 residence IHT allowance I’ll be annoyed. No point in the lower end saving up their cash . My mum and dad never earned much but watched the pennies.

Equally why would anyone invest in shares if there is no ISA all risk and no incentive. It would also mean people retiring earlier when they hit £12750 personal tax allowance as there’s no reason to earn more if the isa is scrapped.

Shame it didn’t hold 1706 tho

Porsche that’s why I’ve bought in. Not bad for new holders but bad for long termers.

When might the divi be fully reinstated? Or has it been permanently lowered

Anyone think Labour will attack inheritance tax £325/500k allowances for estate/residence?

Currently you can inherit £1m combined tax free from parents

£13.50 average im holding

Just wish I had more than £4000 in here at avg 115.

Altho at the time I bought £4000 in bdev and PSN too

The only reason tories didn’t give asylum is because they were on their way out of government and knew it for 18 months. Left the issue to Labour.

Only reason Labour granted it immediately is there’s 5 years for the electorate to forget, which is exactly what they’ll do.

The countries full of thickos, that’s why we let tories in to do austerity for 15 years. Vote Brexit when it was never going to stop immigration due to human rights and international laws we won’t leave due to them being prerequisites to trade deals.

We ended up poorer, let tories do austerity , Brexit and then let labour in after the damage is done to screw us on the last few issues the tories wouldn’t touch.

Winter fuel allowance was handed to baby boomers for many years. It’s the worse off generations who won’t get it going forward.
