Friday Email: 22 August 2025
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 had a very good week rising by 167 points (1.84%) and reaching new record highs. The S&P 500 is down 1.66% and the Stoxx 600 is up 0.82%.
The past week has been quiet as expected from a reporting perspective. The week ahead is also very quiet as the summer lull continues.
Going ex dividend this coming Thursday with yields in excess of 3% from the single dividend we have Zigup (5.2%), Bluefield Solar Income (2.4%), Arbuthnot Banking (2.2%) and Page Group for 2.1%.
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.
