The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring financial educator and author Jared Dillian has been released. Listen here.
NOFEAR somethings never change, you spouted nonsense when you were invested here and you continue to post meaningless drivel now that you have sold out.
I don't think it was the Ft that messed up they just reported what they were told, they have since updated:
'Following the announcement, Bhidé said: “The board told me that I was being removed. It was unambiguous. The only issue was the wording of the announcement.”'
Whatever that means....
There is a bit more of a discussion about it here

The guys been on the board since 2020 he should have raised his concerns before the share price dropped 50%. At the end of the day SMT’s investment strategy is very clear, if you don’t like it buy a different trust, I am happy with 30% PE and the fact I get that exposure with such low management fees. Bought more today for the risky part of my investments.
I also added a few to trade just before close. It closed spot on its 20 day moving average, and still looks bullish to me. I hope it is set to bounce off the average tomorrow. But its a bit of a gamble considering how bad markets are at the moment. The fact aim seems to of turned bearish on this again is also a positive, that normally signals a bottom.
I bought a small chunk too, been looking to buy for awhile.
This is rapidly converging with its 20 day moving average, if the bull trend is intact that could bring in some support, and we may see a bit of a recovery, but there's a lot of pessimism in the markets so i don't hold out much hope.
But what’s your motive? You’ve just got a kind heart? Like any company HL has its issues, it doesn’t make it a bad investment long term but everyone should do their own research and not believe everything on these boards, or in the papers. HL is often demonised as expensive but that’s not actually true if you avoid investing in funds, and their active savings offering is excellent for people with cash savings. Yes changes are needed but hopefully new management can address the issues, but like any investment it has lots of risks.
It’s more about the potential dividends for me. Hoping for a progressive dividend policy paying at least 2.3p annually in the next few years, to give me 10%+ annual return on my investment. If we get that the share price will much higher than it is now, probably over £1.
Seems like this board has been hijacked by a couple of users who have a axe to grind with Hargreaves. Not the brightest pair if they think anyone at HL reads this board.
Started buying these this morning, I lack exposure to any growth stocks and private equity, and this looks like a cheap way of getting access to both. The rest of my portfolio is value shares and alternatives, so I need a bit more risk.
The cut off date for the march reshuffle was end of feb so we have to wait until the June reshuffle, but as things stand at the moment we would be guaranteed entry.
Still looks cheap to me compared to its peers, that’s purely based on its adjusted earnings PE of less than 7.
“Capita plc (‘Capita’) today announces that it has agreed to sell its resourcing businesses Capita Resourcing, HR Solutions and ThirtyThree to Inspirit Capital, for £21m on a cash free, debt free basis.”
Hopeful Barclays and Citigroup will now raise their targets. Based on eps peel hunts target looks realistic to me.
Biggest mistakes I have made over the years is selling a great share too soon. I am 70% up but this is just the beginning in my opinion, with dividends just over the horizon it’s a long term hold for me. GLA
@noveckingood if you are referring to me I am not stuck, bought in at 750 for a long term investment. I see that as good value, so why would I not top up if it drops to that level again? I was answering a question and personally don’t care what price this is today or tomorrow or even next year, but I do hope it will be much higher in 5 to 10 years time.
@evanescent I don’t like the fact the share price has recently dipped below the 200mda. The trend here could turn bearish again in my opinion, so yes I think we might well see the 700’s again, but that would just be another potential buying opportunity.
Around 4m more shares bought back since numbers2 post on 9 feb, looks like he was spot on and buybacks may of ended. Will be interesting to see where this goes without them.
Filters the only way to get rid of the endless, pointless posts of mapp… don’t get what they are trying to achieve, think they have lost money because they invested without researching or something and blame Hargreaves’s. The riddles are just tedious.
Thanks I always thought it was the first of the month, so that's interesting to know, a couple of days before the big day. I don't think march is realistic but we can dream.
