this was the bit i liked

Very solid results.

Pleased with them.

deployment of capital . how much S/D

SAP results was great. CNA should get coverage over the weekend.

there N/S is going to be a great buy and more to come great news for holders .
the only way is up

If you think the market is going to drop 400+ points, then this is going to go with it! The only way is not, therefore, up!

harryu read again for the divs in these bad times for markets and i will sell my rsa before or after div and if these fall will buy more

i have taken a chance andsold just a few of these to buy more rsa as they go ex div in 4 weeks and hope cna dont rise to much before i switch back

TANK - It's obvious that you buy dividend paying shares only, by the shed load. And sell them immediately the divi is paid out. Why you cannot just say that is beyond me. Constant ramping, ie my contact at LLOY has told me to buy etc is just that ramping. Just be honest.

i happen to hold a few CNA but can's say they are getting me remotely excited and the divi does not interest me much either - i prefer cap growth ..... as i concur with tanks that the markets are likely to tumble (i don't hazard a number on that) following in the footsteps of the dow (am already short there) i may cash them in

cynic - Fine that is your choice. TANK in my opinion doesn't buy anything for capital growth, practically impossible judging by these boards he doesn't hold anything for more than five minutes.

i sometimes get accused of that too!

Cynic - Nothing wrong with that, I use spread bets to make money. Same with TANKS tactics were all here to make money. But hey, I admit it :O)

CC any one with any idea knows the markets go up and down why not buy low and sell with a nice profit it has made me very comfortable and i have watch tthese people holding then upset when they fall. my way works . and as done for over 28 years . inout shake it all about is the song

cc i bought and sold lloys a while back 23 times in one day .

and now my plan is cna quite and rsa to rise for the next 4 weeks but i will sell when my target is reached and back in to CNA for the ride

TANK - No argument from me there mate. But I am right re your tactics am I not?

cc i idea of gambling is to make money
if you want to lose money do not sell simple

No Shit, thanks TANK :O)
