Well the incoming cash currently burying the register isnt going to go away soon, bit i do feel that they need to revise the divi policy by more than the 4% increase annually.
Think thats holding many back (inc me, in fact ive reduced oillies of late) as the % yeild for new buyers is easily beaten elsewhere with other income stocks.
Sort that out and i think this will grow wings, until then it'll be slowly slowly creepy creepy.

Agreed fira, market makes and sets the value in general

LSE showing BP highest price @ £6. now that would be nice for christmas

well Billy it hit the magic £4.50 today, alls good with the cash rolling into the till

Big drop today (surprise), cant see any news out there as to a reason?

I have worked for them both over extensive time periods. The companies themselves are chalk and cheese. SVT very progressive, encouraging inclusive and well managed, all plant equipment and operations well managed maintained and run. PNN the opposite, stiffles innovation, very 'clicky' dictorial management style based on control and fear, workforce full of apathy rather than effort, moral quite poor and operational assets are in the main knackered and needing extensive capex. Its a place for a disinterested robot waiting out for its pension and it performs as such.
As for selling off parts, SVT sold Biffa a good number of years ago, but that was long enough back to have no current bearing on sp. PNN fancy themselves as an aquisition business, took over Bournemouth (supposedly to integrate but effectively closed it down), recently took over Bristol Water, suggest same strategy will play out. Return of cash/share consolidation occured because they couldnt find anything else to buy with it apparantly, but they did give quite a bit away on spurious schemes, such as free shares for customers, 1 in 16 took the offer up.
Viluntarily took over the water supply to Isles of Scilly as pr exercise.No other company wanted it or expressed an interest. The water on Scilys is all from contaminated formally private groundwater sources or rainfall (DWI give an exception to mainland water legal standards there currently as it is so bad). A HUGE Capex spend programme is needed to bring the island upto the legal standards elsewhere in the UK, and the DWI are now looking very very closely at enforcing this, now they have suckered PNN to 'step up' and take it over the responsability.

Well theres a bit to chew on i suppose, i expect unclue didnt factor in the return of capital into his analogy, but for the only time ever in history, i would agree with him that SVT os by far the better bet, even if his figures are dubious as usual.

"Personally my biggest investing regrets have always been selling too soon"

Nearly fell of my chair when i read this one trading for huge losses, lol lol lol.

You certainly f'd it right up and did the opposite by NOT selling soon enough when they hit the 400's and losing all that cash as this fell off its cliff.

You could have bought 6 TIMES as many back in the 60's and been in a far far better position.

You could have picked up a few Glen or oillies and rode a huge rise up not down.

What a strange investment 'style' you have. Get less comedy on Dave.

evi, yes, not good numbers there. he'll be playing 'spot the traitor' each day from now on.

ouch !

Definately.
As for the two ply - if really feeling the pinch there is always the other side to use :)

Hey whats a bit of cross posting (i said posting not dressing) between friends? especially if its rising.
Liking the sound of £7 even more, but will wait for £5 first.

"A share that has not grown in 10 years has in essence almost halved in value due to inflation."

Of course you post nonsense and omit the value of quite considerable dividends along the way, which in such a time frame almost pays for the shares in any case, making them essentially free.

Then of course theres the remaining capital value thats still held.
Oh, and of course inflation is only a recent beast, its been very very low for the rest of the ten years you carp on about in your rubbish.

No wonder you post so often in desparation if this basic ignorance of the facts is how you choose your "5%" portfolio investments. Explains why you try so hard, and post all the time, yet listen to nothing at all.
See you are 5 biggest poster on LSE now, lol, your getting further up the chart, yet know so little.

I wonder exactly how your formula has worked with your BOOWHO?

I'll remind you.
no dividends (and there clearly wont be anytime soon with no cash in the bank)
share price down from 400's to below mid 80's.

What a quality investment you made.

Should have bought oil - but you know that already.

Plato,
Im sure the local community will be most pleased at living in the treehouses you propose on land you clearly dont own so you cant possibley build anything.

Remind me, just how many years do you think it will be before the fruit trees and crops you propose to plant will feed your local commune? And what will you grow in the winter in snowy cold Wales?

Now whilst i agree in some areas of your 'thoughts', i am practically off grid for most needs (heating, water, electricity) myself, i think you need a bit of a reality check as to the practicallities of your 'plans'.

Just a tip or two. Your mode of 'travel' on a cycletrack you construct should be bike or walking, not gondolla. Not everybody wants to eat sprouts all winter, and on a small farm of say 5 acres you should most certainly walk.

plato, why not do something about everybody elses 'failings' that you keep mentioning yourself, rather than go on and on unconstructively on here?

If "the whole community needs shaking up" in your opinion then im sure we'll all be glad to hear from you of your positive contributions towards rectification, before we all get sent to sleep in boredom.

I think its a bit rich that Mikey give refunds and as a shareholder i object - afterall doesnt the 'failed prophet' always carp on that Mikey never gives monies back!
A terrible state of affairs

pipedreamer, appreciate that, i shall keep a passing interest in this share and post as and when, a little buzzy bluebottle throwing insults about aint gonna change that :) He's lasted quite a while given they dont like being immersed in water.

This is one of those shares that clearly was hyped to high heaven that you hope never to get 'spiked' on, unfortunately some people get sucked in with the repetative rampy nonsense and 'clever' talk of ego filled bullies and lose their hard earned cash, i have sympathies with all those that do, heck im sure all of us have been similarly suckered at some point in time, part of the investment game as it were, so imv its always the right thing to do and call these nasty agenda driven individuals out.
There seems just the one particular one left on this board these days, the rest of the clowns ramping away (subtle or blatant) seem to have gone quiet, the £4.50 talk has subsided as this has nosedived so spectacularly, but the insults originating from the final clown continue to flow.
Says lots and actually assists exposing such clowns, so no worries there.
Not so sure we'll be seeing the 50p area, (despite the bluebottles insistance on that number my range was a bit higher) seems to have stopped the rot of late a tad higher, but of course the forthcoming news could indeed prove quite damaging - certainly wouldnt be the first time its pulled the rug from under the sp.
Time will tell i suppose, but one things for sure 50p is far far closer, and more likely, than the 400's

RE: Positive NEWS anyone?Today 09:02
Unlikely as he is invested in ABf which has done about as well as your oil investments in the last 10 years."

Hahaha, what an absolute clot, poor attempt even for trading for losses.
Bluebottle must have one leg in the air already!
the dividends alone will have pretty much paid back my investments costs - and i still have all the capital value on top of that. Also a BOOMING cashflow to watch pour into the industry at sustained high oil prices.

Just remind us how many dividends you have received from you BOOWHO? investment?

And how much of your capital your currently out by and wont be seeing again?

Absolutley priceless humour once again from this boards biggest fool.

The usual boring yet easily anticipated diatribe from the same dissapointed ramper reminds me of the annoying buzzy bluebottle fly whizzing around in my lounge yesterday.

Chucking out personal insults - yet childishly complains when other do similar in return.
Unable to admit he dropped the mother of all clangers - holding all the way down from the 400's - yet still professes his superior 'knowledge'
Continually Tries to silence all opposing views from anybody else - then projects himself as the victim of same treatment.
Posts all day, every day - then bleats when anybody else posts far far less than himself - displaying immature reflective behaviour.
Then calls people dishonest with no foundation whatsoever, whilst not being prepared to disclose his own postion, yet moans on continually about others "not being invested" - when he has absolutely no clue if he's actually right.

The saving grace however is the knowledge that the annoying buzzy bluebottle is eventually found by the cleaner, quiet, very still, with legs in the air on the windowcill, having worn itself out with excessive pointless buzzing to the point of expiry, having spent most of its life in search of carp..
We can all but live in hope of such a glorious day here with the boards own bluebottle

Wonder where Kallu is these days? probably counting all the cash he made from his 100% accurate predictions of BOO collapse, brave man to 'swim againgst the tide' of nonsense £4.50 ramping on here, (£4.50 - anybody remember all that guff) but he was spot on accurate, unlike the usual suspect or two on here who still deny the huge dissapointment this BOOWHO has been as its fell of a cliff. Junes going to be interesting.

RE: Severn Trent27 May '22
Hi Uncle Doug. where did you get your figures from?

I did a quick look and apart from the period from Nov PNN was holding its own or faired much better. PNN sold half of itself so that might account for some of the difference. I used HL charts and over 5 years PNN was ahead most of the time."

Uncle isnt very good with figures Gerry im afraid, he's been challenged on his numbers ability by quite a few people many multiple times over years. He has an agenda, and lots of BOO that he posted was worth £4.50, amongst others, best ignored.
