If you look at the chart, it’s a fair reflection of many shares, it’s pretty disappointing. You had to sit thru a lot of thin with very little thick but luckily this share pays a dividend.

If you look at the covid crash, anyone who sold and bought back when the yield was around 11.5% would be pretty pleased with their performance.

Without the benefit of hindsight there was no way of knowing how far the price would fall but if you liked the yield you may have made the trade.

Dividends included.

Even though the dividend hasn’t been increased you would have earned around115p in dividends and be on the road to achieving the holy grail of investing of having a share that sits in your account at zero, zilch, nothing and earns you income. You could have used the dividends to help pay your bills but if you had re-invested into your portfolio, you would be earning income on that also.
