The market is up more than 80 points. This thing is not even move one bit!

Thanks for correcting me. Yes, that's right but what I actually meant to say was that the ftse100 keeps making fresh gains. But it doesn't matter much really because RSA is only just one of the smallest holdings in my porfilio, the others are doing a lot better apart from RRL. That's another bad buy and my only AIM shares.

we were already closed at an all time high of 847.50p but someone happened to have sold 384 shares for 836.025p a share at 16:40:34, what a moron!

Will we see a new high before xd?

I know this is a long term invesment, but may be a bit too long and the SP is even lower than where it was in 2008! 5% lower after 5 years while the ftse100 is at all time high, you can't really blame me for my patience is wearing a bit thin!

people are not afraid of the xd drops, the SP is now back to only about 10p from its all time closing high of May14. So, no worries, mates!

our snail share is on the move again. Of course in a snail's pace. Well, again, let's hope it will be a tortoise and hare story outcome.

Yes, but they have cut the divi now, so a large part of that attraction has been taken away. It might take longer than before to push the SP back to the 130's now.

So, you already have your plan worked out, good luck to you then. But one thing I don't want, which is seeing this going down 200 / 300, lol ! No.no.no.. let it not happen, please God!

really a snail share, apart from when the day it annouced the divi cut, which the SP was sliding down at a lightning speed and still not recovered! Evertime when the market was 50/ 60 points up, it either went up 0.1 / 0.2, or unmoved or even down! This is really terrible, ugh!

Yes, the divi is 26.7p. It would be a big drop when it go ex-div and normally they always drop more than the divis. So, someone may be able to pick this one up at under 800 very soon.

Looks like that people are banking their profits. Although the results were as good as it can get, the drop is bigger than the final divi. May be it is time to top up. Or should I wait until the dust is settled? Decision, decision....

It seems that the SP is gradually climbing back to 800p territory. Let's hope that it stays this time.

Good for you, are you sure to bail at 800? Why not wait until 850? I think 800 is now within easy reach and so is 850 (assumed that there will be no hiccups from the Euro Zone!). I am in AV too. That one is a real pain in the A*ss!

...there .... 800p!!!

800 soon without any foreseeable obstacles? Well, just a pure wish.

I too had some too when it was first privatized but I did not hold for this long. I couldn't remember when did I sell them and for how much? But one thing I am sure was that I did make a little profit too. Well, actually you deserve for your patience and your faith in the company. Trust you must have enjoyed your holiday very much. Good on you!

Thanks for the info, how I wish I had bought into this share at that time! But sadly, my entery was sky high at 692.5p just over a month or two ago and with a measly 8% paper profit at the mo, which would easily be wiped off in any slight nastiness of the market.

The SP rockets away with the new div policy and a good update. Way to go NG!

You had them since 192? Goodness me! What year was that? And you must have made yourself a fortune! (If your holding was big) Many congratulations!
