RE: 100% upside in 12 months?6 Jun 2023 19:53
I invest with HL and surprisingly had to pay the 0.5 % stamp duty. I sent a secure message to HL concerning this matter. They responded by stating that CREST has requested the brokerage companies to now apply the 0.5 % stamp duty. I can only assume that the acquisition of WH with numerous retail units throughly the UK caused this change. Perhaps the now larger UK revenue makeup was the deciding factor.
