RE: Special Dividend11 Aug 2021 00:58
I wouldn't worry about it too much. had about £5k odd in tesco. They did their special dividend in a real awkward way. They gave us £1200 and took it off the share price with a share reduction. So we bought another £3k roughly. With the current dividend and special one - We are about £844 in the blue over £8k. So after a year of tough trading with covid costs and selling a £5 billion business we are 10% up on our investment. We had bought in at £2 and it got to £2.40 and we lost all that capital growth. See what it does in the future. Mixed opinion about it see if we get rewarded for holding on in there or should we have just dumped it and taken the growth. You can't win them all.
