Sp fallen but dividend yield now 15%+

And at the current price it yields over 10%

February 8th last year was the 52 week high at 0.80

It would b be good to have that repeated on its anniversary on Thursday

5 years ago the shares were over 30p

It was on the 1st December that I remarked that the SP had reached 50 quid. Now, 2 months later we’re over £57

Keep going!

I don’t think that the consequences of the US listing has been fully appreciated yet with a pe of only 13.5% and a dividend covered 4 times

CRH should be a constituent of every fund

I’m not an investor here except through my holding in Polo

I don’t suppose that Tang would try and relist Polo?

I can’t find any Polo results anywhere

Does a shareholder have a right to be informed of results in a Thai company?

Early buyer this morning spending 9p ((plus commission and stamp duty?) for 20 shares

No rise yet at 12.30pm

Son in law; independent?

Does anyone know what has caused this morning’s sudden relative enthusiasm?

Maybe the Board has arranged a meeting; now, that would be news!

After the publication of the optimistic RNS you’d think/hope that the directors would be piling in

One share per hundred

Expect us to be at the top of the leaderboard tomorrow as the consolation takes effect

Who's going to be in ANY office at 5pm on Friday?

They may have a result before 5pm in which case they could announce that a 75%+ majority of the debenture holders had voted in favour, but I would suspect that they will hold over until the LSE opens after Christmas

Debenture holders

Always a bit anxious when a meeting is called for the last day before a holiday break. As was advised after 9/11 that it was a good time to publish bad news Here’s hoping that that isn’t the case here but the fact is that there will be no analysis or comment probably until the new year

GLA and happy Christmas

Eccles,

Care to share the name of “the gamble “

Hope you have a good return in the New Year

Encouraging move upwards today. Year’s high was 1.60 on 20 December so let’s see if we can repeat this

You make an interesting observation regarding the price of annuities

Say at the age of 65 you invest in an annuity which may yield 6%. Expectant age at death, say 85, your capital investment dies with you. However, if you invest in L&G you receive a current annual income of almost 8% with a current expectation of annual increases and the possibility of a rising share price which survives your death

Of course if the stock tanks you could lose value and income. If that looks too risky you can always sell and invest the proceeds in an annuity which because of your increased age should be cheaper

Just a thought

Seems good value to me

My average is 7.7, so I’ve a lot further to go

Even if there is a takeover bid, it will hardly be at a multiple of seven times the current price!
