HGH - Heartland Group Holdings

[RTM]

Good buying Snoopy. I managed to get a small top up at $1.32 about a year ago and some more at under $1.50 but I have no idea what my average price is as its a complicated mess of shares transferred over from the former Heartland Bank, DRP shares acquired over the years and sales when the share price really did get overpriced a few years ago as well as my latest top up at $1.85.

There's been a few people mentioning they are hoping for a dividend increase this year but I think with the new more stringent RBNZ capital requirements and taking into account last year's dividend increase I think that's unlikely this year and I'm quite relaxed about that.

Although I have lost visibility of all my transactions due to name change...grrrr…..I think/hope Direct Broking still tells me my correct average price which is $1.06. As per Horus's technique I sometimes use this to calculate the % of my portfolio and justify where it has got to.

Can even buy some more and they'd still be FREE but that doesn't seem to make sense does it

Did you or did you not pay money (from an account or from a dividend) for the shares that you currently own?

Pleased to get you started.
Usually it sets W69 right off..!!

We are not saying we didn’t pay for our shares. We are saying, the effect of dollar cost averaging over time, reduces the average cost of our total purchase. Which, as you have already discovered, can sometimes result in a negative average price. So yeah, it can feel as though you get some free shares along the way.

We know what we mean don’t we Percy

Buying or selling shares should be based on whether or not you think the share is over valued or undervalued at the current price. Previous Losses or gains on a share should have nothing to do with that decision.
