Historically shares were equity and stocks fixed interest such as debentures, unsecured loans , gilts etc

But they may be hanging on for more, who knows?

Remember the stock msy be borrowed for a premium not necessarily sol short.

So boris quite rightly does not want a bsckstop. He does not quite rightly want a hsrd border. Why does the irish pm? Who will construct and over see them. It wont be boris. What a splendid chap. Positive but does not care, hammond and may negstive.

YEs you are correct. They are nearly all rated a which means automatic. Generated by computer that is why there are a lot altogether.

The tech is now available for Ireland. No hard border is needed, Sweden Norway works well as switzerland who belongs to EEA. Why is Ireland so against no border? I just do not understand. Merkel making soothing noises now. She knows whats at stake. Most of EU is tuppenny hapenny countries. Germany is broadly on our side in their own interests France always plows a lone furrow.

I have a nice holding in an ISA. When my wife died she left me a small holding of 37 shares. As her estate was UK based they asked for a fee of £80 as Isle of Man based. They settled for £40 still a fifth of the value. A callow youth asked where an outstaning dividend was to go. I said as she was dead and transferring into my name not rocket science to work it out. The so called bereavement team is a joke and it has taken over 6 months for which Rank took only 6 weeks.

Scrapping the water cannon was not a bojo blunder. It was Mrs May again not allowing them. Never said yes to anything!

You have gotten muddled with what I said. I never implied that pension companies bought aim stocks. Of course they don't. I was answering the point from one person that aim stocks can an do give divs. And the other point where someone else mentioned success ful companies reinvest which sometimes is the case. The divs from ft companies are needed by all sports of investors. Of course aim can be good for pensioners not least as some are eligible for inheritance tax relief

It pension funds and pensioners need the income. Often it is greater and more stable than interest. I don't think success can be measy red by the rate of retention. It is interesting that aim companies are now paying over 1 billion in dividends annually and rising. RemeMyer that dividend income accounts for approximately half of total reruns statistically. I was a chartered financial planner and tax consultant so I was constantly faced with this. My clients used to comment how the divs held up when markets fell

According to proactive investors at least a quarter of aim stocks pay a dividend some of thembsubstantial

Don't understand. The link is about banks misdeeds on Forex. What has this to do with unsubstantiated wrongs from market makers in securities, Looks like a non sequiter

Nobody complained when annuity company Tomorrow was taken over

Why would they signal? A they are in competition with each other like bookies on a race course, B they could just ring up or send a carrier pigeon C these people look after hundreds of companies and make money on turnover D So no need for high jinx

But of course the equipment is finite.

Well the uncrossing trade takes place after the daily auction and may be a trade not always it is in the definition compared with other trades. The clue is in the name. If large may indicate the market is short or long.

But here is a company with a yield of 2.6% and a pe of 3. A competitor to the bank's on sme what's not to like

Hinckley another may disaster. Not sure it is even happening now. That was why I mentioned the mini nuclear ones

Double M formation now. Worse than ever. A bad chart.

Best to conserve cash in the circumstances. Look at gec. Amassed millions. Along comes a spendthrift CEO and they went Burt
