Erm, exactly which one of those holdings prices were impacted by the x date between 7th April 2025 and yesterday?
law debenture was because i looked at it at the time - but saw it was ex-divi and also not at a discount. generally the discounts on ITs have remained consistent over the last weeks suggesting no real "bargains" |

seems like you may well be as clueless about trading s&s as everything else
i don't pretend to be a trading master of the universe like yourself - but i try my best |

generally the discounts on ITs have remained consistent over the last weeks suggesting no real "bargains" apology accepted. the last x date for lwdb was 20 Mar 2025, nothing to do with trading this month. if only judging the value of an IT at a particular time was done by looking at the 'discount'  |

Just checked my records, bought lwdb @8.38 07.04.25 price 745. Today 868.
+16% in 9 days not a 'bargain' though  |
|
By:
apology accepted. the last x date for lwdb was 20 Mar 2025, nothing to do with trading this month.
so you think you bought lwdb between the date it went ex-divi (20 march) and the dividend date (today) and received the dividend? |
|
By:
obviously not. what would the a x date of 20 Mar 2025 have to do with my trade on 7 April 2025 ?
this is what you posted: a number of those were trading ex-dividend on that date what does that have to do with my follow up post yesterday, to ub: All nicely up, not selling though |
|
By:
the date it went xd was 20 march and it remained xd until the dividend payment date (16 April). it's still trading as xd today.
|
|
By:
Are you new to this? the payment date doesn't impact the market price.
|
|
By:
It's just information for holders of the equity. The x date is the only significant one re trading, as that will be when the market price will 'correct' lower to reflect the value of the divi.

Tesla reporting their quarterly earnings after the bell
Expected to be slighty better than the prior year Currently 6% up so far today  |
|
By:
Tesla profits fell 71% from a year ago. Earnings were -$2 billion below even Wall Street expectations. It will not offer revenue guidance the rest of the year at the current time.
Sounds like things are going great. |

Everyone enjoy the last couple days of blatant market manipulation again ? Quite the sideshow with Bessent early then Trump during market maintenance hour when volume at lowest - dark pools were cleared out and shorts got trapped in a vertical 2% spike - gold trounced 50 odd bucks by time it opened itself with the dxy bid
These recent days festered with super suspiciously timely comments and tweets, not all in one direction- this way, that way - wax on/wax off - no consistency - a few hours, sometimes minutes after volume spikes are, in themselves quite low probability, let alone a good few in a row with the same obvious patterns.... |

What nonsense theatre we've witnessed this year so far ... never known the like of it
Markets now 75% retraced the rapid sell off after all that jawboning and fear.. And then guess what ? Trade deal supposedly reached with Chyna over 48 solitary hours ... how about bolleaux What happened to bringing manufacturing back home for the boys ? Short memory this admin lol If I were a contrarian trader, which I am sometimes, and carrying suspicious notions about the current US admin, which I do ( although I'm suspicious about every fker in politics tbf  ) and then couple that with market patterns so far this year - I might posit that this is where exit strategies have been targetted by those much more in the know than us ..... and now they have liquidity/demand to sell into Fair amount of important resistance chartwise at these levels 42400 dow jones, 21,000 nas100 5855 sp500 Not selling here so much, yet .... but definitely not buying anything fresh that's for sure ... Watching closely - interesting week ahead - market open in 9 minutos |

Fundamentals still seem very bad to me. Staying with my strategy of cash and income. Feels like a massive hone trap, needs lots of patience.
