Nice rise here today, let's hope we get more of the same tomorrow(sp rise that is) not party bolotics lol.

G.l.a

A lower sp might be of benefit if your buying, for myself I'm already holding as much of these that I wish to, I'm also a bit wary about trying to catch a falling knife, but hey I'm still hoping I can get a return on my capital and see a profit here eventually

Well let's see where this goes after the budget, hopefully not deeper under water

Not much point in having dividends if your losing more of your capital than your getting back, with no sighn of it improving, just hoping I will get back into profit sometime soon, then say goodbye to this trust

We are already getting an amazing dividend here, it doesn't need increasing, I would prefer to see more capital appreciation, looking forward to next dividend, loving this share so far

Caz, send them around to me, I spend my money on women and beer, then I just waste the rest

In my dreams of course. 😀

Never had a problem with hl and been with them for years, also they are one of the fastest to pay dividends, they just put it in a holding to be reinvested section, you can go there and transfer it to your capital account immediately, granted they are not the cheapest so if ajbell are cheaper then fair enough

It's been a blood bath both sides of the pond the last week, the joys of the stock market, hopefully better times ahead

Stanley, my socialist friends, you must be joking, I will be glad to see Rachel thieves gone, and her boss

Alas, leaving the country to save paying tax, how sad

Dc good news, but we have the budget hurdle to deal with first

Fingers crossed though

Well we could argue all day about politics, i don't trust any of them, and right now i'm more interested in what effect this budget is going to have on my current investments, will we have a knee jerk reaction which will give us an opportunity to add some value to our income shares at a bargain price or will it cause a longer term decline, i have a few on my watchlist, and hopefully something good will come out of it for my house builders tw and psn, fingers crossed they don't go into further loss

Caz, If politicians told the truth, would you vote for them!!!, Nigel farage is a good example, he will say anything just to get voted into power, but will he deliver? they are all just looking after their own interests, until they get found out that is

Denby, I told you it would go up today, you never believe me lol

Only joking of course, great recovery at the end of the day

I thought this might be a distraction from the politics

Have a good weekend all, and enjoy the dividend payment

Denby, ok I will take it on the chin, ouch lol

If only the stock market was predictable if would make things a lot easier

Marvin, not quite right, exdiv is the date that determines who's eligible for the dividend payment, let's say the dividend is 5p then the share price will drop by 5p on that day, so the company has already does the calculations on what they have to pay out, if that makes any sense, the share price will generally rise on payment day as investors will reinvest their dividends, but of course it will also depend on market conditions on that day

Denby, tomorrow is payment day, not exdiv ?, so why do you say it will drop

Hello Phyl, well the dividend is very good here at the moment, But this is definately a lot more volatile then lgen, hoping though that it's reached its bottom, something good from the budget to help house builders, such as help to buy scheme and further interest cuts would be a good help, we will have to wait and see who's going to be the winners or losers, best of luck whatever you decide on

denby, sorry i didn't mean to be, i'm cautiously optimistic that the dividend will hold, and eventually we will see a decent rise in the sp, from my point of view i have averaged down twice on this share and psn, so of course i'm a bit *****d of with it still dropping, but hopefully we will eventually rewarded for our patience

best of luck all

It does seem like the dividend here is safe, I wish there was an edit function here lol
