Question. In a S&S ISA the dividends you receive that are automatically reinvested do they then come off of this years allowance?

No, they are inside the ISA, so like gains, they don't affect it.

The only time you allowance is used is when money goes into the ISA.

Seem to be in bear market. Don't buy into the doomsday mongering myself, although it's not helped by the Chinese markets. (the FTSE was at this level back in October/December last year too)

Dividend may not last too much longer, although management currently prefer to freeze our salaries rather than cut the dividend! I'm sure Bob's got it under control :p
 
I've had a win week. £2k into INFT on Thursday morning saw me bail out this morning at 200%up on Thursday close and another 11% today when I then thought, sod it, and dumped the lot on MAC today at 60% up. That limit sold at 506%up this afternoon.

They will borrow to maintain the dividend. But I am rather heavy in BP too
 
What gave you the clue on INFT, congrats anyway


BP should maintain dividend its a big deal with these companies. CHK cut it and has plumented even though its actually a fairly smart move, but perception wise people dislike it so BP wont I agree

BP are running a solar farm locally on wasteland, funny game. Nice weather we having for it :o

This recent move should have bounced, its failure is significant but we'll see how it develops I guess. From a big trader newsletter:
Friday was unusual in many ways – you see a day like this as a trader once every 3-4 years.
>>
So where does that leave us?

1) technical damage for short-term and intermediate term is massive. Dip buyer confidence was taken out to the woodshed and thrashed.
2) So much of this is about China – they are the last frontier of growth. Global central banks are running low on bullets and if China is slowing down ...
3) Watching two things very closely – reaction on the QQQ 100 zone (which we will attempt a long on – after a reversal candle) and when market does rally, the reaction on the first major resistance (underside of the SMAs).
4) For the first time in a long time the bias is with the bears.
5) Gap up on Monday morning is quite possible but would make things quite difficult in terms of trading (we are flat). Only way we would get long on a gap up on Monday is on an Indy/pullback to ascending EMA and reverse up pattern.
6) Ideal scenario would be move down to 100, close around there and gap up on Tuesday, or move down on Monday and Tuesday and reversal on Tuesday afternoon. It would give buyers more confidence if the reversal occurred on Turnaround Tuesday. Seems silly, it is silly, but in the end, so is human emotion.

They think 100 to 90 QQQ as a marker for recovery, a bounce that keeps that point could lead to a reversal
Its not a bear market till we lose 20% from the top apparently. So about 1681 on the sp500

The graph for BP doesnt give any clue to strength it might find. Wonder if Gold can build a recovery, no doubt it'll have many false starts. Gold miners use a lot of oil, I always think this situation should benefit them more and a lot of this FTSE fall etc is from China backing off growth/spending.
China is a massive driver in the gold markets and no matter what will remain a major buyer for the next decade as almost all their foreign reserves rest in dollar debt which is a mistake they will continue to correct. So fundamentals good for gold still imo. Dollar down with Yen up as money retracts to Japan
Chart for AAPL looks better, 100 to 75 range. BT 400 ATK 1400

Was gonna get in on BP at 390, forgot and kicked myself, same again all the way to where it is now.

Now I think I will get in, even if it's up a little a open
 
When you quote the yields for oil companies, are you sure that they can sustainably keep paying their dividends with the current oil prices?

WTI Crude is around $39 / barrel I think?

edit: $39 instead of 42!

with BP. its hard to tell as they have had to pay out so much money. If nothing else i am sure one of the Oil Majors has to be looking at a take over bid by now.

RDSB hasnt missed a dividend since the war which i think speaks for itself. If i didnt have a lot of this already id be buying more.

I am hoping there is a pull back soon. My ISA is a sea of red apart from a few funds and some house builders ha
