Hi DK, yes that was my point as it dumped more than the divi (c3p) at the open, as is common with FTSE names.

Tullow's held up well given the oil price dump over the last 24 hours. Although I think we're due that, given it's disconnection long ago from underlying O&G prices.

Banburyboy, if I was as balls deep in North Sea oil as you've been over the last few years, perhaps I'd have to remain positive too. I suppose that's easier than admitting you've been royally shafted by the management of Harbour, Serica etc. I prefer telling it how it is, I'll leave others to "judge" whether that's positive or negative...

I'm only a holder since November so marginally in the green. But the share price collapse here over the last few years could never warrant puff piece nonsense about HBR management - it was also ramped on here all the way down from 500p. Truth can be painful.

"Is this expected to drop tomorrow when it goes ex divi ?"

As is tradition, and in true FTSE 100 tradition it always falls more than the divi.

30 recommends for those puff piece marketing bullet points? Wow. The ramping crew are working overtime, that can only mean thing...

Hilarious that perma ramper NewKOTB felt the urge to repost it, but doesn't understand the difference between "loose" and "lose". Perhaps explains why he's been bagholding Serica and Harbour for years...

SittingDuck11, you forgot the bullet point that says: "Management successfully oversaw a 50% share price collapse, whilst allowing their private equity mates to slip out of the backdoor at 400p-500p."

P.S. Every man and his dog saw the EPL coming, yet Harbour were asleep at the wheel. The likelihood is that all the legacy investors will never break even, even if the deal proceeds.

Might enter Fresnillo at Crufts this year.

JMAX's "personality" increasingly coming to the surface through Stalinvest alias...I called it after a few posts. He/she can never keep the new alias mask on for very long, it always slips sooner or later.

Then when this alias is discredited and exposed, onto creating another one....

What will it be tomorrow? Mussolinitrader?

They don't call it the devil's metal for nothing...That smackdown could be interpreted as a warning.

$29.26 and $29.42 to beat for silver, which were 2020 and 2021 highs respectively.

Bonker, what % physical premium over spot are you comfortable paying for silver? Or you don't care?

If by "FTSE dividend stalwart" you mean one where where investors lose half their capital, then yes I suppose it is.

CPI and core 🔥

Pacman even if true, in all likelihood, HSBC won't be buying FXPO for their own speculative book...They're a custodian bank and are holding shares for others, perhaps including people on here.

"IC article today suggesting that AAL might be takeover target. BS IMO"

Why not? Market cap makes it look like a tiddler now compared to the mining big boys. It obviously looked better value at 1600p a few months ago though than now at 2200p.

HBR goes ex-divi tomorrow, therefore you need to be holding by the end of today in order to receive the divi. That is really all that matters.

P.S. I'm not endorsing a buying stampede for the divi today, as historically it falls more than that amount.

"I firmly believe 34 p is the peak. Will be shorting all the way down to 30 p" - Monopolyman on April 4th

Obviously wasn't a particularly firm belief then was it...Bit like all of your other nonsense calls under multiple aliases.

I see that JMAX has yet another new alias in the form of Stalinvest.

I wonder what Mr. Monopoly (Monopolyman user), James Bond (J.Bond user) and Stalin (Stalinvest user) all have in common? Could be a pub quiz question...

"Missed this one that I have trackedfor ages. Looked too much at gold players, so missed out on FRES."

Mate, we're at 584p not 1584p. You haven't missed out at all, it was 600p last Christmas.

Pokerchips, £ and FTSE 100 have been "cheap" for donkeys too, still not enough to entice overseas investors though. Oh the days of $2 to the £, perhaps some on here remember when it was 3...

"these will almost certainly get sold off, along with everything else, when a proper market correction occurs"

With CPI print tomorrow, you might not have long to wait LWHL!

"Of course it has.....The City makes money....and as there is no such thing as a bad market"

Not sure about that Pokerchips. Even hedge fund titans like Paul Marshall have lamented the fall of UK equities, he aptly described it as the "Jurassic Park of stock markets". Many UK fund managers pivoted away from UK equities towards the US and Japan, the valuation disparities across the pond are really stark - the big neon sign examples are BP and Shell versus Exxon, Chevron etc.

Low volume and thin liquidity mean institutions need to encourage order flow and market participation by taking down stocks and forcing market consolidation to earn £££, we've seen it in oil and gas.

Most people here would rather shovel every penny they have into the housing market, whereas UK stocks have been largely ignored.

Did you know that in the early 2000s, Vodafone had a bigger market cap than Apple - now it's $23bn versus $2.6tn :)
