Good morning,

I see 420-430 potential bottom in the next few weeks- quieter summer months, adding to the downside. I’m sat waiting on the sidelines to buy again. Gl all

Well I was right to wait, so far but where’s the bottom this time around? I still feel maybe 460 short term in next few weeks as a bottom. I think loads of options have to get sold off tomorrow?- is that right? Triple witching?- if I’ve got the right date?

When does BP go ex divi again? Temped back here for divi’s but more tempted at 460-480 levels , will wait a week or two. GL all

When does this go ex divi? Thanks all

When does BP go ex dividend next? Cheers all

When’s BP go ex dividend again? Cheers all

Fantastic results, happy with this. When are we ex divi again? Thanks all. G.L.

When’s it going ex divi? Tempted to jump back in at these prices. Long term all will be well imho.

What’s the dividend work out percentage wise as a new buyer at 8.29 p. Ex dividend next week is that right?

Surely this is the bottom? Not done enough research on this one but tempted…. Thoughts? GL all

Well it’s just gone ex divi so that can drop it by the value of dividend paid out but not completely sure as copper price is still ok but share price been trending down this year

What’s the chance of this going sub £46? Next week or two? - I’d be buying for long term dividend, although expect some volatility the next few years . Cheers

Good job I waited, looks like at least back to 4500 maybe lower now, metal prices dropping. Don’t ever buy purely on a divi as that can be dropped or cut anyway. GL

Also read this morning that 34 % of u.s. investors have moved to cash from portfolios at the moment but partly down to interest rates on savings is ok now but still…

Seems to be some headwinds now, any thoughts? 6 month lows but still possible downside at the moment. Sit on the sidelines or?

Yes personally I think todays drop based on u.s. ratings and Dow dropping. Fancied buying at this price and picking up the dividend too but looking likely cheaper to wait as 110 could be a possibility. Might be a few negative days on the Dow now . Decisions

It’s sell now ask questions later it seems as so much negativity in market now. What’s divi equivalent to at 53.90 share price?

Thanks Skier1 - very good info. I’m treading very carefully at the moment- I rang them the other day for valuation and asked some questions- they are sending forms out.
What has motivated me to move is I believe I’ve been over charged over the years and they’ve performed poorly- value has barley changed in 10 years and I think the fees are sucking up a lot of it as it’s such a tiny pot- a months wage to a lot of people but I think I’ll enjoy investing it myself and spreading it about and seeing if I have joy that way- plus now I’m self employed I’m guessing I’d be able to contribute to it as well along the way. Low cost will probably be important as like you say adds up over years and sometimes it’s nice to change shares and not be stung high fees or running costs etc. All the best .

Does anybody have any knowledge on pension rules or workings please?
Have a tiny private pension that I took out years ago, which I had to stop contributing too once I started work for a company and had that pension scheme then which was better.
Looking to transfer it into a S.I.P.P. From old provider, should they freeze value when I ask? or is it a gamble as to when funds get transferred across and then maybe at a lesser value?
Also any recommendations on a decent S.I.P.P. Provider? Reasonable charges or fees etc. Thanks
