Eckie8, Plenty of time yet, hopefully we will get a good run in April on approach to exdiv

Good evening Trigger happy. A.K.A sidi lol, A very good day, hope those sales work out well for you, I don't have a large holding here, so was thinking if it should drop back to the 1.90s i will probably add more, hoping to sell some of lgen before exdiv, but waiting to see how high it can go, good thing is i finally managed to sell off some of my Lloyds shares at a profit @ 51.55 it's been a very long wait to get them into profit, let's hope the upward trend can continue

best of luck

To be truthfull I've vvery tempted to sell up today at this high price, but resisted, not sure if I will be regretting it ?

Jesteh, Did you mean, if you don't mind losing money ?

Slpj, you just buy a good crystal ball, and hope you get lucky, if you get it wrong just don't tell anyone ;-)

Longtimeinvestor, Of course we all make our own choices, I'm not complaining, but this is a discussion board, I don't like to see anyone losing money here anymore than i don't like losing myself, but we all have our own opinions of what's good or bad investment

Divi held and share price up, nothing to complain about here for me

Longtimeinvestor, The whole point of risking your money in the stock market is to get a better return than you get in an investment account, well done to you for avoiding those losses with multiple buying and selling, but let's be honest it really shouldn't be that difficult, it's been an absolute nightmare this one, we would have been better off just investing in a basic international tracker fund which is where most of my portfolio is now, i had the opportunity to sell this on a few occasions at 1.40 bult silly me i held on hoping for more, but i don;t think any of us could have predicted this would have dropped this low, anyway that's all in the past, let's hope it can grow some legs and start climbing those ladders

Longtimeinvestor, I guess your another die hard Vodafone supporter, i'm sure you have had a good return from dividends, unfortunately it's come with a big loss of capital with this one, it hasn't been one for the faint hearted or impatient that's for sure, thankfully my biggest holding Lloyds is in profit and hopefully will go a little higher, I will say the same to you as i have said to Fleccy, i hope your long term plan works out well here, you both deserve it for your patience

Fingers crossed here guys

Hopefully Dan will come back to tell me off now, he doesn't like me putting lol

Come on Dan get back here mate

Garonne, I'm a Vodafone holder, I can't afford the £12 subscription charge to read that lol

Hopefully tomorrow will be a rewarding day

Good evening sidi, thanks for the warning, I will have a handkerchief at the ready lol

Let's hope it is exceptional then

Best of luck my friend

Long, you have a good point with that one, maybe if the current share price was a lot higher then investors would be thinking now is a good time to sell, but who would want to sell at these prices?

Everyone's circumstances are different here, if your thinking of holding long time then the buybacks might be beneficial, it depends on how rewarding you think this share will be over the next 5 years, this could be Back up to £2 or it could be as underperforming as it's been over the last 5 years, who knows?

I've been invested here since 2017 and every year posters here have been saying this will get better, just like you are saying now, but every year it's just got worse and worse, The longer anyone's been invested here the more they have lost, one good thing is it does appear to have reached it's bottom, however we all know there's a recession in Germany, Vodafone's biggest market, so my concern at the moment is the upcoming results

Personally, i just want this to rise as quickly as possible so i can offload some or all of my shares

Hopefully tomorrow will be a blue up day for us and not a nasty red one

Well it doesn't look like the announcement of buybacks/Italian sale or next years dividend reduction has done much to boost confidence in this share, so what are everyone's thoughts on the Final results on 14 May 2024 are you expecting them to be good or bad

cheers

Prefer giffgaff myself, i pay £6 for 2gb data and unlimited calls/texts which is enough for me as i'm usually on WIFI, your not tied into any contract and uses o2 network so no roaming charges in Europe, excellent service

Longtimeinvestor

how much do you think these buybacks would increase the share price

I suppose it depends how long you intend being invested here, in the short term probably zero

So for anyone like myself who just wants to see this rise as quickly as possible i suspect it will be of no benefit whatsoever, I suppose it depends on how rewarding you think this investment will be in the coming years or not, each to his own i suppose

Longtimeinvestor, how much do you think these buybacks would increase the share price and how long would it take

Hi Soton, A top tip for anyone retiring, invest some of those dividends with Tui or jet2, and i don't mean shares, i mean a nice holiday or something you enjoy, your only young once ;-)

best of luck guys

Garonne, I've worked out a good formula for analysing all these goings on, if the share price goes up it's a good thing if it goes down not good, unless of course your one of those investors who just wants it to go down so you can buy more, so can only speak for myself as i just want to see this go up, 90p would do me to sell off my last batch, so let's hope it's a good week

not had Guttersnipes prediction for next week yet, maybe he will have a look at his tealeaves later on

but best of luck
