12 month low is 233.50p.

Balerboy - 25 Jun 2012 18:13 - 77 of 314

I know why it's dropped.........I, like 2517 bought in at 250 for the rise to div date....sorry chaps.,.

skinny - 26 Jun 2012 08:55 - 79 of 314

Just bought in @229.75p

2517GEORGE - 26 Jun 2012 10:26 - 80 of 314

skinny, you haven't bought enough, they're still going lower. BB time for you to buy more, (lots more) to average down.
2517

Balerboy - 26 Jun 2012 12:25 - 81 of 314

as you say if sp doesn't rise pre div, 14p pretty good and stay in. will see where bottom is for now.,.

2517GEORGE - 26 Jun 2012 12:31 - 82 of 314

BB, I was thinking of the same strategy for FGP, they go ex-divi 16.5p I believe, a week after HFD. I guess it's all down to timing and skinny's was far better than ours this time.

Balerboy - 26 Jun 2012 13:11 - 83 of 314

thanks for the tip, and yes skinny is a canny player.,.

2517GEORGE - 26 Jun 2012 13:21 - 84 of 314

BB, that wasn't a tip, just a strategy that I was thinking about, with the drop in HFD I hope to get my timing better if I do decide to go ahead.

Balerboy - 26 Jun 2012 13:33 - 85 of 314

just used it for short typing, i have also looked forward to that div date and saw it listed. didn't expect hfd to drop so close to div date......don't think any of us did. BB

skinny - 26 Jun 2012 14:18 - 86 of 314

Hmmm - worth a read - Halfords hit its lowest in three years on Monday on fears about deteriorating sales and a dividend cut.

2517GEORGE - 29 Jun 2012 16:02 - 87 of 314

HFD -- strategy was right, execution too soon
FGP -- strategy was right, execution too late.

Timing eh! That was Jimmy Jones wasn't it?

Balerboy - 29 Jun 2012 16:14 - 88 of 314

Kicking myself too george but seeing as FGP has until the 11th before ex div have dipped toe in.....not very far. Hopefully a bit more to come next week.,.

2517GEORGE - 29 Jun 2012 16:16 - 89 of 314

I would have thought so BB, but then again that's what I thought about HFD. Good luck with FGP. I'm not in, yet.
2517

Balerboy - 29 Jun 2012 16:20 - 90 of 314

tell me, why 2571 is it your inside leg measurement.,.

2517GEORGE - 29 Jun 2012 16:23 - 91 of 314

I didn't realise you were numerically dyslexic BB.
2517

Balerboy - 29 Jun 2012 16:58 - 92 of 314

twit.......ok 2517 lol was expecting bigger things.,.

Balerboy - 04 Jul 2012 08:21 - 93 of 314

Well 5217 "thats another fine mess you got me in to" Saddled with these for a while now, timing all wrong.,.

hlyeo98 - 04 Jul 2012 08:35 - 94 of 314

Halfords has dropped drastically, heard sales will be affected again soon as weather is wet and nobody buying bicycles and outdoors gears. SELL now at 220p
