The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
'Strategic options' still being considered re Wilson sons t/o (come on MSC, back of the sofa cash for you, treat yourselves), investment returns through the roof, succulent divi in June, all seems promising here. Many a slip etc and all IMVHO but glad to hold. GL holders, spectators.
Looking good...https://www.investegate.co.uk/announcement/rns/jtc--jtc/full-year-results-for-year-ended-31-december-2023/8126959 In fact looking rather fantastic. Already priced in or a decent rise today? Whichever, happy times, gla
Looked forward to the 2.06 dividend pay out this a.m. and I find it's .85, half of what I expected. Hicl refer you to the prospectus of 4/3/19 where it states that a divi portion will go for tax purposes.....should have done my homework! gl
Regular income returns and finally, some capital appreciation. Oh and dividend paid on time - as good as it gets. Any downside here? After nearly 2 years, the pessimist in me says too good to be true but what's to derail it...touch wood. GL all.
Me too lti. The 'complaints officer' was conveniently out of the office this morning so no joy, although a message would be passed on. I managed to remain civil but hinted at ombudsman involvement. Honestly, they're behaving like a back street second hand car dealership...
Progress of sorts. HSBC 'complaints specialist' owned up to admin errors having occurred. He assured me that he would sort it either by the end of the day or early next week. Treated like royalty I was, ahem, although actions speak louder etc.
HL look after my wife's divis Tom. In her experience they are very prompt with all payments, usually on or around the 12th of each month (HSBC take note).
I'm loath to sell SMIF as it's been a terrific income stock for me over the years. With the share price looking a tad more energetic, it's one I want to hang on to, so I hope all's settled by next week. Happy updating LTI, gla.

Nothing showing in my account today. November's bumper pay out went in 3 weeks late and the December 1st divi is now 4 weeks (!) late....The HSBC agent who is dealing with the problem actually phoned yesterday so I must be ruffling a few feathers. He suggested that SMIF were at fault, so it's become a blame game. I will be in contact with him today as well as pressing SMIF for an explanation - last time they 'denied any wrong doing' (groan) and implied HSBC inefficiency - who to believe?
I'm weary of this; if SMIF are the culprits then respect's out of the window and I will sell up next week and add to my blue chips which have always paid divis a day early ie PHNX, GSK. Investing should be fun and worry free, eh? ATB
