With no reference to safety factors? I doubt whether many of your 100 HYPers would do the same
I also doubt whether many would suggest VOD as a new pick right now owing to those safety factors. As I remember it, pyad wrote that when topping up, one should look at the safety factors in the same way as you would for a new share.
Quite.
Reference to Vod's past glories are meaningless. It ain't the same company and has no established divi record and rotten cover.
Buying it is a gamble. Fine, with one's eyes open.
Not for me. I have enough duffers already.
Question is, how did it get into the wife's HYP. My idea? Ummm, oh, really?
