Something i heard on one of these boards sometime ago is, there are two types of investors/posters, those that don't know and those who don't know that they don't know, you can put me in the don't know category, the best thing we can do is make sure you have a diversified portfolio collect the dividends and hope for the best, because we don't know if shares are going up or down

Just reported him/her, not sure if it will do any good

DC, best of luck to you, I have some shares such as lgen/aviv,sdlf,mng,that i just hold long term for income, but i also have some others i may occasionally trade, so it's each to his own

The Tourists are on the move, just the genuine long term holders left lol

No complaints here, capital appreciation on top of a good dividend, one of the best alongside my mng shares

That was a big drop on Friday, hopefully Monday will be better

Mikeyh68, some things never change, back on the ski slope lol

Guys I've seen this share go up and from around 1.80 to 3.00 ish so many times over the last 10 years, but it's kept paying the dividend all the way through, even covid time, so i have no reason to think it will start cutting the dividend anytime soon, but obviously it's never guaranteed with any share, i hold this purely for dividend income and will continue to do so, I have never had expectations of any big capital appreciation here other than compounding dividends, it's not that type of share, but you make your own choices whether you want to hold or sell

One of my all time favourite low cost funds is lgen international index for growth, but i have seven funds and 2 trusts, plus 7 dividend shares, i would suggest having funds that track different indexes , but i'm no expert, so many to choose from

Dc, well that's what it's for really

Enjoy spending it

Sp Not doing very well here so far, I'm hoping this isn't going to be one of those investments where the share price drops more than the dividends

DC, it looks like just you and i holding on tight here, everyone else seems to be jumping ship lol

Hope it's a case of better the devil you know than the one you don't, also some of the other shares i already own, like mng.aviva,sdlf all seem too high for adding to , with the exception of tw and psn which have taken a nose dive since this war started, sorry i bought the dam things

That's the icing on the cake, increasing profits as well as a great dividend, let's hope it can continue with the same trend

Throne, that's a good question, for all of you that are selling up, What will you reinvest the proceeds in, at the current prices

Drifting, lgen is over valued and sdlf is under values, Really ?, I would have thought the opposite

Soton, loving the retirement mate, everyday is a weekend now, shame about the constant rain though, I expect Dan is sunning himself on one of the costa's with a glass of Sangria, not sure where Vodafone is going it seems to have levelled out for now, maybe it will get moving when this pointless war is over, quite like the fidelity enhanced monthly income fund and cty trust, not many bargains around at the moment with regards to dividend shares

have a good weekend all

Aangus1, i can see your not new, do you use gilts yourself

Hello Aangus1, no i have never used gilts, i have a selection of high yielding dividend shares and investment trusts, also a selection of funds for growth, most of which i have held for a while, i don't see many bargains around at the moment though as the entry price is quite high on most of them,are you new to investing or have you been doing it for a while

Hello soton, no I have bought any space x, chickened out of that one as I'm more concentrated on dividend shares, I might regret it though, not chatted with Dan for a while, hoping my comments might get him back here, atb

Gla, have a good weekend

DC, You should say, Is 400p possible?, we are struggling to reach £3 lol, let's see if we can get there first, but i will give you 10 out of 10 for being the most optimistic poster, good luck to you though we would all like you to be right :-)
