Very happy to see LWDB closed at 800p today.
Bought into this IT as part of a portfolio reshaping last year, around 500p from memory.
I locked in a generous yield and the significant share price appreciation has been most welcome if somewhat unexpected by me.
LWDB has done well over the years - I've been nibbling away with a few buys since a first tranche in 2014, and following my last purchase in June of last year, I can see an average buy price of around £5.49 according to my broker, with a 46% overall gain in capital from my various purchases.
As can be seen below, it's yield has been relatively steady over the years, hovering around the 3% mark, but with good share-price appreciation over recent years, that of course means that the dividend-growth itself has been quite good over the same period, and especially so recently -
