Hi,
i'd like some views from dabblers and experienced buyers/sellers.
the divi..... 6.5p per share held at COB Weds 20th.
if someone owned 10000 shares and will get £650..... sounds nice. this person waits for a rise back to their buy in price.
BUT someone who opted to not have 10000 shares, sees the price drop after ex div day, then buys in, waits for price to rise above the 6.5p divi payment....
who is the better investor?
is there one?
are they both so so??
i ask as i saw tesco at 234p, then drop, but then drop again further.
so 10000 shares would have been approx 10500 if bought at lower price with same funds....
and divi was ignored....
when price goes back up, more shares at a profit.....??
am curious to know views on divi, buying in, and holding back....
thank you all,

What’s the Morrison’s Divi pay?

Did all shares sto trading from 10.10am till 12pm today, then re-open down??
have looked at charts of shares i watch, Tesco, BBY and Lloyds as well as Barc..... all same (ish) downward diagonal line......
10.10am one price, 12pm lower, trades restart??????

i think these are unpresedented times and everyone is a better pm than the pm.... same as fans are better managers than football managers......
to note, my first walk today, not just 20 mins, but full on walk.
get to a park, it's rammo. basketball on the go, keepie-uppie etc etc. worse was a group of lads on a kick about, 2 actually sharing a cigarette ffs..... then obvs mix of sensible people sitting in a social triangle 8-9 ft apart chatting...... then a trio of three drunks on wine 2 ft apart..... so based on my 10km...... spike will come..... 2nd wave etc..... and Boris will say, i said, stay alert, not go out and share fags......!!!!!!

Weds i suspect price to rise as people will buy in before market closes so they are recorded owners of shares on the Ex Div date. share price will then drop Thursday morning by approx 6.5p..... so hopefully after that knock back (to compensate for the divi of 6.5p, share will rise, but i suspect a drop further due to sellers.

i think no matter what the Special Divi could be, it's the date to be "in" that is to be speculated....

my small holding reaching 5-6p would see me about square with yester years losses tbh.....
would make my wedding fund look lovely without having to work for it.......
Good Luck

ok, i see, so you're about £14k invested?? at 2.388p (41 shares per £1 then)
so i'm guessing approx 75% down on that investment and waiting for the rise to 2.5p.
wish you luck.

BB2, you must be in pretty heavily if you are thinking about leaving the stock at this point.......
wish you luck,
there's plenty of people owed money on losses from yester year from RMP, me incl,
GLA,

Do you mean £0.00239? as i 4 to 1p?
me, i'm in at £0.004934. so 2 per 1p.
i was gutted years ago to have missed that climb to 50p.... i was in at the 17p days.... and lost...... out at 5 p ish back then, disowned them...... was a bad summer holiday, going away smiling at the kids, them unaware i'd lost 15k!!!

Hi, what you guys and girls in for?
volumes?
in profit?
at a loss?

how much are you all in for?
stock volume if you like.
40% up in a morning, not bad at all

285k shares purchase was mine this morning,
was a dabble of £1400 i can afford to play with.
lost too much in the past to want to but tens of thousands of £'s worth.
good luck everyone,

morning,
thanks for the replies,
i'm back in, tempted as have made 4500 quid of Barcalys last ref weeks.
0.4934p buy - via Barclays
cannot recall how many shares i had back in the day, but if this were to go up at all then it's a small way back to clawing back lost and forgotten money.
it it went over 5p i think i'd be even from that loss i suffered.
might have to trawl back through my barclays acc and look at what i did have.
returning to shares after so many years away, and this site, my Watchlist has changed a lot with shares disappearing all together.
but i still cannot find a list of up to date Dual Listed stocks i can ISA trade.
Good Luck everyone,

Tesco and BBY that i watch too stayed low with falls.... Lloyds shot up though......
banking news??? finance shore up???
confidence from somewhere.....
i'm glad i don't work nights... would have slept all day and missed the lot!!!!!

that was a shock......
busy working, just took a quick glance, nearly missed it.... in too early this morning...... at 96.... could not wait then missed on further drop i see, hovering near 92 then whoosh.... 2p gain for me, and i thought it was going to sail downwards for the rest of today and friday......
good luck to those that got in near 92..... well done.........

hello, is this share dual listed?
i was in this years ago, back in the days of 17p a share.... dabbled a few times, then a result went pear shaped on a Monday.... Barclays could not get my sale through on the friday before (twice i think i tried), market closed, that weekend, boom, drill results in, market opened and killed my £'s.... £15k in one day.....
look years later and the shares are 0.5p....
is anyone on here still holding for the high pence days???
good luck with your results,

i was looking early, first thing, saw the 94p arrive, waited... but have to work.... should have jumped in.... was not sure if that was the low.... soooooo early, just never know...... then i look, less than 20 mins it's at 95.8 to 96..... so i'm in. think 96p..... i'm in for small gains, have till June next year, no target, just buy and sell as i like..... same as i do with BBY, Tesco and Lloyds...... don't have time for anything else tbh........
Good Luck all,

under 94p to buy

As it neared 97 i was going to buy in
searching for a low point that no one knows what it'll be.... just hunches.... but i am working and got busy again at 16:10 and then it was 17:08 and i look to see the close of play and the price....
as i posed questions earlier,
also to add, i feel like i should buy in on lows to average the price... in 10k lots....
but i know, once i have done 4, and i'm in fully, if i see it bottom at 95 or 90, then i know i'd wish i hung on....
but the share/market is volatile now...
i saw today, nigh on 2 disappear in minutes (later on)..... as i worked of course... then up 1p then down, up 1/2p then down....
i was in weeks ago at 82p...
i'd like 80.... but again... i'd wait... hesitant but not losing £'s too
Good Luck
