Friday Email: 08 January 2021
Every Friday morning our lead analyst Mark Riding sends out his weekly run-down and upcoming events in the investor calendar, like this one:
The FTSE 100 has made a very strong start to the year and has risen by 6.2% in the past 5 days in spite of the further lockdown and events in the US capital that shocked the world. Investors are pinning their hopes on the success of the vaccines in the battle against Covid and the rebound in the world economy that will follow.
The past few weeks have been very very quiet from a reporting perspective as is always the case from the last two weeks in December through the month of January. There are however plenty of trading statements.
Going ex-dividend this coming Thursday we have a large number of companies. Those with yields of 2% or more from the single dividend include Premier Miton (3%), Ferrexpo (2.8%) and Sage for 2%.
The Friday email is delivered to over 20,000 subscriber’s every week, and remains a widely read run-down of recent events and what investors can expect in the week ahead written by our chief analyst Mark Riding.
It’s included as part of the free DividendMax trial.
