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

The market is full of anomalies.

Take for example Nylex, (NLX).

It effectively has no assets and has not paid a dividend for years. Even after years of turmoil mamnagement still admits it is too ealry to anticipate a dividend; (the banks will be after further reductions in debt before money flows to shareholders.

Despite this the shares are selling for about 39 cents. Just shows what hype from management can do in terms of supporting the share price and allowing those who got new shares for 25 cents to get out at a hefty profit.

One day, when NLX pays a dividend, shareholders might realise the lack of substance of the company and the share price will take an appropriate dive.

I recently got the dividend for NAB then I sold the stock. It was like I got free money. The banks usually drop after the dividend is given but they do recover within a month or 2.

Rozella can you please explain your numbers to me I do not get them or you are missing some stuff.

Eg:

Initial investment: $10000
Initial Share price: 435.0 = $4.35

Number of shares bought ~ 2299 shares

Dividend paid: $287.375
Sell price: 440.0 = $4.40
Return from sale: $10115.6

So, return = $10115.6 + $287.375 = $10402.975

Profit $10000/$$10402.975 = 0.9612 then (1 - 0.9612) * 100 = 3.88% return

I do not understand much the margin account stuff. Can you please explain that to me? Are you showing in you info how much you pay for your margin account? do you knwo how much it affects your profit?

Additionally, are you considering any tax implication, if you are in the 30% bracket your profit will go down to 2.716% and then you have to add the brokage fee, let say you pay 23.95 per transaction, so profit will be with tax around 2.40%.

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


I always show the profit as a gross profit, but I will do it with brokerage & interest below.

with your example:
Buy 2299 shares of TEN @ 435.0 = $10000.65
Marginlender lends 70% = $7000.45
Our money 30% = $3000.20 (our investment)

Dividend 2299 x 12.5 = $287.37
Franking credit = $123.16

Sell 2299 shares x 440.0 = $ 10115.60
Profit on trade 10115.60-10000.65 = $114.95
Total gross profit
$287.37 + $123.16 + $114.95 = $ 525.48
Gross return on investment = 525.48/3000.20 = 17.51%

Brokerage 2 x $33 =$66
Interest @ 8.15%p.a
for 34 days on $7000.45 = $53.14

Net Profit 525.48 - 66.00 - 53.14 = $406.34
Net return on investment = 13.54%

Re tax: If you make profits you have to pay tax, that is another issue.

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

rozella,
good gain on your WDC with it being a short time frame profit (chart shows good bull run too).

This conts to be a very interesting thread and I think the way you have presented your trades in explaining the process is great.

thanks again,

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

Thanks Tric,

This is the 2nd round of trades with WDC on the lead up to the profit announcement.....bit of a gamble period atm, so I take the profits as we go, & will re-enter on a pullback.
