Investment 429.3/share
Exdiv 9th September, dividend 32.0/share fully franked 13.71/share

My fingers & brain are not connected again, the ADB purchase should read, Investment 378.90/share, not 389.90/share
 
Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

Is TLS paying the special dividend & the regular div on 31 Oct ?, if so the yeild is looking pretty good at today's price.

Overall investment not so good if the SP goes to $3, like Burgess is spruiking.
 
Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

Yes 31st October for pay date.

How low can it go.......more yet I think

Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

Hi Rozella,

There is an interesting debate going on as to whether a trader can claim interest expenses on borrowings at http://www.number.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?t=126&sid=8ed8c5ffd10deac24731a0ec7c5d3c8a (need to scroll down a couple of posts).

If you are registered as a trader, just wondering how you interpret the ATO's fact sheet as interest on borrowings would be a major expense for you. Would appreciate any insight!

Margaret.

G'day sails,

Thanks for pointing me to the discussion, I don't agree with Paul, & obviously my accountant does not either, but I will look into it further. I have a trader/friend visiting me for the day, so I am a little restricted with time atm.
 
Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

Well I only had a quick look at the site but the guy seems like a clown.
His opening post he states that an investor gets a CGT reduction on a dividend. Umm dividends are not CG and are treated equally no matter what your clasification. I wouldn't hold much credit to any of what he says personally.

Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

Damn Don, I should have started my dividend trading plan with warrants last week on SSX. I was just looking at them then. I thought ex-div was tomorrow.
Bought some PMN though. Will see how that goes. It all looks dandy on paper. Gonna sign up at etrade too so I can get the trailing stop losses. I need a system going.

Re: Dividend, Share Price. Is there a connection?

G'day The Estimator,

Yes, SSX is one that has come back to just above buy price on exdiv day....they don't all do that.

I made good $$$'s in short time on this one in two trades.

Sold SSX today (7th Sept) @ 157.5
Bought 5th September @ 152.5 with a margin of 65%
Investment 53.375/share
Exdiv 19th September, dividend 4.5/share fully franked 1.93/share
Gross profit 5.0/share = 9.368% return on investment. 2 day trade
Will re-enter if situation permits

Then todays trade
Sold SSX today (19th Sept) @ 153.5
Bought 9th September @ 153.0 with a margin of 65%
Investment 53.55/share
Exdiv 19th September, dividend 4.5/share fully franked 1.93/share
Gross profit 5.0/share = 9.34% return on investment. fc excluded. 10 day trade.

I prefer to take a profit when it is there, i.e. I set out to make the dividend my profit, so if the stock rises an amount approximately equal to the dividend, then flattens out, I sell & re-enter on a low day. SSX is a good example, but sometimes this can be done 3 or 4 times within 3/4 weeks. Recent examples are WAN & ADB
