Never have a problem with Jarvis (LSE) and they do not charge monthly/annually for maintaining your portfolio or ISA.
Makes sense to me, they would not want to get involved in the ramifications of exchange rates changing day after day as they do. So they went out on the day and bought GBP at the best price they could find.
David Wood must be having a chuckle; his recent share purchases are up around 13% in value.
Problem is that a lot more folk are going to the discounters because Tesco's prices are rising. They are not much cop at getting decent prices from suppliers because they still take too long to pay - not exactly great management is it.
Thanks for that you guys, I stand corrected but it looks like it may well be all done and dusted.
It simply doesn't matter, they are making good money and paying dividends, eventually the market will understand the true value of these shares. "Everything comes to he who waits".
Why? They have not been involved in property cladding as far as I know.
Problem is that the board is reluctant to pay a decent dividend for some unknown reason. It doesn't seem to occur to them that they should do such during inflationary times.
Ahem, forget all that blah, blah, blah. I'll tell you what matters in the present scenario, you need investments which preserve the purchasing power of your money and that means businesses which have a record of paying dividends which yeild above 5-6 %. I confess to having a small portion of my cash in a couple of outfits which I hope to get some growth from but I know that it's a gamble in reality and it could go wrong.
Oddly enough heavy wind is nowhere near as costly as a flood is to the insurance industry: Neighbour lost a few tiles but it was all sorted in a couple of days, and my little green house lost a couple of panes - no big deal but we both agreed that a flood would be far worser and would take weeks to sort. So I don't think DL will have taken a serious hit.
Happens allthe time my friend, my bank does it too. Always have one last look at what you are ordering before clicking.
Hi Chillphill, Absolutely nothing wrong with this business which always makes money come rain or shine - because everyone has to buy insurance and seems to be able to pay decent divs quite regularly. In other words almost perfect for the medium term investor. However trying to "trade" it is risky because as you have observed, it's up one minute and down the next and that is because "traders" (gamblers in reality) mess about in their usual manner imagining that at some point it will make a great leap forward and then sell out when it doesn't BECAUSE ITS A MATURE BUSINESS.
