I'm not planning to sell anytime soon. In fact I may top up yet again when my uu and gsk divis come in over the next couple of weeks

Yup, picked up a few more for my ISA, only an extra 2% of my holding, but all the income that's available this month. Hoping for a £1.10 divi in May with cover over 2x.

Picked up another 360 of these at £8.22 to add to my holding bought in three tranches this year, currently averaging a little under £7. 50. Not sure why only 70 are showing up under the purchases tab.

You are quite right Rangor, I didn't notice it's (very brief) surge up over £50 (and straight back down again) in September. Sadly, the stay over £50 this month was ever briefer.

My timeframe is fairly long, as I've held these since they were good old RTZ back in the 1980s. A bumpy ride at times, but mostly profitable.

Took a while to break £20 properly, but now definitive. With de Beers rough up 12.5% on the latest cycle, can see £25 falling much sooner

Been a long wait, but very nice

Added a few to my long term holding, only 32 in my SIPP, but seemed worth it after recent drops, and with everything else heading northwards

Looks like tomorrow will be good:

I think this is a good price and a relatively safe hedge against this government's incompetence on covid and everything else. Also a good hedge against a collapse in sterling. Topped up a few more to add to a holding going back to 1988.

Yes, I picked up another 20% addition to my holding at £1.05 just before the close. Takes my average up to about 75p, can't believe this has any way to go but up.

Topped sliced 10% of my holding at £58, bought mostly at betweem £16 and £24. Not entirely sure what to do with the proceeds. No CGT as all safely in my ISA.

Added another 20% to my holding just before the bell at £1.15.324. Seems to have dropped more than I expected after the initial surge. Decent prospects for growth and/or takeover.

Very nice

50% up in 6 months, wondering whether to top slice

Added a few at £12.20, hardly seemed worth going early to get the 5c divi

@Driftking27: is English your first language?

Divi up 3%, underlying earnings and ebitda both down 5-6%. Could be a lot worse but fear the market will concentrate on fcf down 28% and rather wishing I hadn't made a modest (3% of holding) top up yesterday.

I topped up at £35 in April and was wondering whether to add a few more before the half year figures next week. Doubt the divi will be as good as last year, but with iron ore nudging $112 they must be coining it. Ability to buy limited by the fact that some of my more significant holdings - Lloyd's, Shell, Renishaw, WPP, Air Partner - have passed or cut their divis.

Terrible brokers DZ may usually be, but on this occasion at least they got it spot on as the price is now £78. These were the first shares I ever owned, back in the 80s when they were still Reckitt and Colman. And not selling any time soon.

With RIO nearing £50. Both still paying heavy divis - unlike a depressing number of my other holdings.
