The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
Presumably with all this rain we're presently experiencing and all the extra illegal ar*es that are in the country they will be presently releasing more into the rivers. Meanwhile the CEO is paying herself even more !!
maybe the rights issue is a plan to make the labour party think twice. if ng is showing that it is investing in the future possibly labour will leave it alone. plus it has business interests in the us. the water companies have just released details of how much more money they require. they are a far more obvious target for labour and nationalisation. but they require, according to themselves, a great deal more money to stop the **** going into rivers and sea. the ceo of severn trent has recently given herself a massive pay rise so they are not short of a bob or two!
Your optimism overwhelms me! Check out director buys?
Been watching this share for months and I don't think I have ever seen any other board that has so many optimists. You lot should be able to platt sawdust!

Buying back shares is their way of covering up their poor performance !
This is yet another company for the directors to take excessive salaries at the expense of the share price.
If the directors (the company), know of no good reason fot this huge (HUGE) fall in share price why are they not buying like crazy - seems like a no-brainer to me?

And you think petrol and diesel is expensive?
This quote is for them to empty, flush and refill the system. I feel that if they want to sell Hi-Therm in quantity they will
have to either reduce the price or give full instructions to the house-holder in order that the house-holder can fill
their own systems. I now have a choice of either buying Hi-Therm or double gazing my last two windows. If I was to sell my property in the future a prospective buyer will either see double gazing or something I tell them is in the radiators. Which would impress you the most?
Taken from the latest results:
Finally, we are also delighted to announce that during our annual general meeting held on 7 June 2022 in London, shareholders approved the distribution of a record-breaking dividend of EGP 1.3 billion in aggregate in respect of the financial year ended 31 December 2021. Our ability to reward shareholders even in the midst of such difficult times demonstrates our business' strong cash-generating abilities and our unwavering confidence in its future growth potential and in the solid fundamentals of our industry."
Sorry, spelling mistake - "Dycun" - Dickon

Circa 1398 - When the crazy king Richard the second was on the throne he paid for a private army to surround himself (his Cheshire retinue (knights, squires and archers) . They addressed the king by the familiar name of "Dycun" - Dicon. "Barrel-chested guards waited outside his chamber at night bearing massive battleaxes, saying to him: "Dycun slepe sicurly quile we wake" "
