Oh no! Are you another CSDI robleo?........lol

The strength of the pound is killing VOD's revival. So it's also doing harm to the other FTSE dollars earners. Guess the way back to the 140p's will be long and twisty.

Meanwhile, we all better be prepared for the rough rides....

Yup, sun is shinning here for a change. Hope that you are going to have a great day at work.

Good morning friends, amigos. The FTSE100 is now 7073, up 20 points. Let's hope that VOD will follow the market trends and get back to above 130p then. Good luck everyone.

Hi robleo my friend, amigo, welcome aboard. Hope that you will do well here.

I first bought @£1.60 sometime last year then topped up a few times, average 199.50p. So, my original yield is 9.13%. Current yield is still 7.66% but also got 18% capital gain on top of that too. Therefore, I am quite happy with it and wish that long may this upward trend continue.........lol

We are going to miss you CSDI my friend, amigo. Hope that you will come back one day and bring us better luck.

Anyway, wish you and your Mrs the very best with no more worries over the ups and downs of share prices. Enjoy a more peaceful life!

Goodbye and God bless!!

Yes, that's possible. Some may sell before going ex-div. Let's hope that the ex-div drop won't be too big then.

Nope, unfortunately it finished the day in red but there's always tomorrow hey...... hahahaha

Actually, Pay point isn't bad at all with over 5% yield and the dividend is well over 2 times covered. Better than many high yield shares that needed to borrow and pay their share holders...........lol

Yes, absolutely miserable compares to last year.

But the good thing is that the grass will stay green longer. They were all brown and dead in my garden last summer time and I needed to water them every day....

Sorry for the off topic.......lol

Hi falky mate.

Well, actually LSE is wrong too. No idea where did they get that 39.2p from. According to Dividendmax, Paypoint paid 4 quarterly dividends as follow:
Jul 27, 2020: 7.8p
Sept 28, 2020: 7.8p
Dec 29, 2020: 7.8p
Mar 8, 2021: 7.8p
Total: 31.2p, current SP 593p, only yield 5.26%!

Sorry FosherKing but how did you get 12.34%?

Paypoint paid 7.8p quarterly X 4=31.2p/593= only 5.26%!!

It's a far cry from 12.34%!!!.............lol

No, this is not the great depression. Only a small dip. We should see things that will go back to the old days soon. I meant back to the 140p's........ hahahaha

Should read...'dead cat bounce'.......lol

Good morning friends, amigos. It's looking good so far. Let's see if it can get back to the 130's.

It's healthy. Nothing goes up in straight line. The day is still young. It may finish the day in blue, who knows. IMB has done it many times, red throughout the day then finished in blue. Let's wait and see. GLA and good morning.

According to DividendMax.com, the next dividend will be declared on June 6, ex-divi on July 8 and will be paid on July 22. Usually, dividend declaring and net assets value update are on the same day. The current company dividend policy is 7% of the net assets value per share, up to maximum 7p. Unless the net assets per share will go over 110p per share in the next update. Otherwise, the next dividend will stay at 1p, which is most likely but who knows, anything is possible.

The following is a list of dividend yield of my entire portfolio. If the current yield is higher than the original yield then the share is in red. If it is lower then the share is in blue.

Name Original yield Current yield

LGEN 7.30% 6.275%

NG. 5.46% 5.12%

MNG 9.13% 7.66%

IMB 8.61% 8.26%

VOD 3.98% 6.07%

DLG 7.71% 7.49%

GSF 6.66% 6.60%

GENL 6.08% 7.55%

LLOY 1.23% 1.176%

TED 0% 0%

WBI 0% 0%

As you can see that VOD is the sickest dog of my entire portfolio. Now I am more than £40k under water. It will take many years to recover my losses from the dividend income.....dear old me!

Sorry for the off topic everyone, my apologies...
That's it, no more whining.... hahahaha

Morning my friend. Nope, all I got are only shares. Now got 11 of them. Of which 8 are paying high dividends. LLOYDS pays very little also missed the last one. WBI only just bought from Primary Bid, very small holding(16,666 shares). Don't even know if it pays dividends or not, lol. TED is currently paying none..........but my overall average dividend yield is still over 6%. I need dividends to make up with my measly pension as I am already retired...... hahahaha

Now I have just checked again. In fact I got another notification last week for my VOD. The dividend of £2,250 will be paid on Aug 6. A little earlier but still have to wait until August. Why do they keep our money for so long? Why not pay us now? I don't think they can earn much interest keeping our money in the the bank these days..........grrrrrrrr
