Does this go ExD 5th April? No messag
Re: FCA Investigates To cause such calamitous damage not only to their own reputation but also to that of the company that we as shareholders own, I can only conclude, as per my previous post, that the Aviva board must be a bunch of d!@kheads. As such, I will not lose any sleep if one or two heads roll. In fact, I'd prefer it if they did.
Re: FCA Investigates Quite right too. There must have been quite a few who took fright and sold early .They may have a claim against Aviva. I hold no Aviva prefs but a holding in Lloyds, an my lloyds irredemable prefs went from over £1.80 to £1.50If I had lost money selling out I would be waiting to see if I can make a claim for my losses against Aviva
Re: First they came for the irredeemable... My aged mum had a lot of Lloyds preference shares. They certainly repaid them at par. Didn't need them as part of their capital. The market clearly didn't think it possible while they traded for years above par, then they found the small print. All the prefs took a big tumble following Avivas big idea. Im losing trust in the city!
FCA Investigates The Financial Conduct Authority is looking into whether Avivas controversial plan to cancel £450m of preference shares broke market abuse rules.see[link]
Re: First they came for the irredeemable... I have not seen it mentioned anywhere but it could have been a 'fishing' expedition to test the waters and gauge the strength of investors reactions although I can imagine the reply to that would be 'their reaction would obviously have been exactly as it has been'.An expensive, reputation damaging way to go about it even if only half true.
Re: First they came for the irredeemable... " Then they came for the shareholders but there was no one left to speak for me " No one except a few million other ordinary shareholders. Anyway, the Aviva board of d!@kheads have seen the error of their ways and have scuttled back into their ivory tower to dream up another brilliant money saving idea. Hopefully the next one will be better than the last. ...And to think we pay these people uber amounts of wonga to run the company on our behalf. Hmm.
First they came for the irredeemable... "First they came for the irredeemable preference shares, but I had none so i said nothingThen they came for the preference shareholders but I had none so i said nothingThen they came for the shareholders but there was no one left to speak for me"Shame on Aviva for even suggesting that they could redeem the irredeemableI hold none but i do hold irredeemable lloyds and know that should Aviva have succeeded then Lloyds would have been fast on their heels
I have noticed Every rise on this share falls back. Taken profits before but not this time, I thought the results were very goodGeneral market is my view looks cheap to me at this price as do a lot of shares
