LLOYDS is going to FLY frog_in_a_tree: Its only money TJ! Hi Fiat, Well you are correct there of course. Perhaps I should have kept the lot for myself and spent it on wine, song and what was the other thing??? Or just frittered it away as I went along. Let the future generations sort their own problems out, I never had the Bank of Mum & Dad to help me and I don’t suppose you did either. Did I tell you I am off to the Somme in 8 weeks time with my grandson for his first visit there. Best regards TJ

LLOYDS is going to FLY trader_jack: You mention the cost of holidays. I would not like to see her savings frittered away on a holiday or holidays. Such pleasures should come out of her day to day living costs. If she has insufficient cash left over at the end of the week / month then she would have to do what we all did when we were that age - forego the holiday and just stay at home in the garden reading books. It depends on the holiday. 2 weeks lying on a beach in the Bahamas? No. A round-the-world air ticket with 6 stops that you have to think about and plan in advance to get the most from your trip … well that is worth a year’s extra education anytime. Depending on the stops picked, that is. My 6 year-old’s JISA just achieved the £10k point, plenty of time for me to blow it when I transfer it next year probably to a stocks and bonds JISA and go to work on it in the AIM market. When she’s 18 I’d rather she spent the cash on such a trip than most other things. She’d probably get more out of such a trip at a slightly later age. After college is probably too late. Its hard to get employed if you take a year out after a college and before starting work. Travel broadens the mind and the horizons, especially if the stops take in, say, New York, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Bombay, Rio. She can spend whatever is left inter-railing around Europe. The difference in maturity and development after such travels is unbelievable, I’ve noticed… Perhaps I’ll go with her just to make sure she stays safe …

LLOYDS is going to FLY skiking37: so looking at AZN and GSK. You have to look at their new drug development pipeline. How many potential block-busters do they have in Stage III testing is the question you want answering. It is so fundamental to investing in big pharma I believe they maintain a development pipeline time-line calendar on their web sites.

LLOYDS is going to FLY PrefInvestor1: I’d be worried about them all crashing at the same time, @PrefInvestor1 AIM doesn’t do that though. As I’ve said before it is the only real diversification left that I’m aware of. A bad day on a major stock market tends to be replicated on all of them around the world now, and across most if not all sectors. That’s due to it all being driven by massive funds, so big they back sectors and indices and couldn’t possibly get involved with AIM because they don’t have any change that small in their cash draw. Any kind of interest that was meaningful to their assets under management would result in them buying the company. So, when the relatively small mega-fund managers herd mentality gets panicked, that sentiment tends to be felt throughout all major markets around the globe. On days like that the only green I find in my portolio is some of my AIM stocks.

Trading Update GRG Greggs…time for a trade!!!report on tuesday. Im already in having bought when it just nudged above the 2300 consolidation mark. Note a golden cross on the MAs on the chart 10 days over 50 days. From last trading update… “Given the strength of trading in the latter part of 2019 the Board now expects that full year underlying profit before tax, after the cost of the special payment to employees, will be slightly higher than our previous expectations when we report our preliminary results for 2019 on 3 March 2020.” Im expecting them to outperform given the new vegy beef wraps.

Trading Update GRG Greggs tie up with ASDA This week, the supermarket also announced a partnership with pastry chain Greggs. Asda is set to launch Greggs counters in five of its branches across the UK, including Boldon, Corby, Huyton, Wigan and Eastlands. This is Money – 18 Feb 20 Asda sales fall over key Christmas period Asda, Britain's third largest supermarket, saw sales fall in the crucial Christmas quarter as budget-conscious customers were 'more mindful in their spending'.

LLOY skiking37 20 Feb 2020

LLOYDS is going to FLY I’m looking at another company to invest in and I am contemplating a pharma so looking at AZN and GSK. GSK has recently announced their results (beginning of the month) and, not being an expert in analysing the facts and figures, nothing really stood out as wrong however, the SP has dropped quite a bit since. Clearly today its gone XD. Given the recent drop is this now a buying opportunity do you think? Still keeping my investments based around dividends but also looking for 5-10% increase in SP before selling and hopefully buying back lower. I’ve had a search on ii and there is bugger all hence why I’m posting here and looking a your views/insight

LLOYDS is going to FLY J_Westlock: Here’s my guess: It’ll all get spent on a Hen Do and Wedding 10 years from now. Oh J. Westlock please tell me you are only trying to wind me up. I want to think that my granddaughter would be a little better than that. You don’t paint a very good picture of the grandchildren of the person you were executor for but hey, I will be pushing up daisies or whatever so I suppose the question would be : will I be able to look down (or up) to see how my grandchildren react when the finally get their mitts on their inheritances and will I be able to grind my teeth whilst watching all this happening… Best regards TI

HUR bobsson 20 Feb 2020

Warwick & Lincoln 3 wells drilling 2020 It is possible that things could quickly turn for the better here. The rig is now on hire and ready to move from Norway when requested. HUR have asked the OGA to delay the time for abandonment of the LC well because the JV hope to drill two or more wells on Lincoln this year. So perhaps the request to the OGA should read extend time to abandon or complete LC well and want to conduct pressure testing analysis. Things could go like this, OGA grant extension, PBLJ drills the Lincoln sub vertical well end March and May and into June, completes the LC well July, then drill another Lincoln development well in August and September. It then moves to GLA end of Sept. Perhaps at some point during the next 6 months Spirit is sold and the buyer is very enthusiastic about GWA and the JV. Remember the Warwick licence expires on 31/8/2020. Just a theory.

LGEN marktime1231 20 Feb 2020

A light trim I think you are right the final dividend more likely around 12.6p if it increases in line would give a total yield of 17.5p ish not 18p. That still means a progressive yeild of 5.5% at the current 317p share price. The risk is whether it will hold up at that sp or whether random developments will push it back deep into the 200’s again. I’ve noticed markets seem to be less tuned to Brexit rattling but LGEN has been astonishingly sensitive in recent years to all sorts of macro economic factors affecting Sterling and the UK economy. Well, I have been tempted to add at 317p this morning, and am hoping for the sp to advance strongly through the dividend cycle, so I can reconsider in a couple of months whether to hold or trim. If the sp gets eroded I will hold and may even add again.

FXPO marktime1231 20 Feb 2020

Swizz tax Took the chance to back out of FXPO at 159p this morning with the sp recovering to a 3 month high on no news in particular. I have noticed that FXPO tends to drop away by the end of the week, as though trading rooms are cashing in bets before the weekend. Anyway, timed well enough to have trapped a reasonable 10% capital gain and a disappointing special dividend, and relieved not to have the worry of such a risky stock in my yield portfolio. Switched some to LLOY in the hope that the approaching 4% dividend will spark new life, and poised to add what looks cheap … am I convinced LGEN will rise even further, or is SMDS a safer long term bet, or does renewed housing sector activity mean it is time to add CRST or another house builder?
