Re: Unilever 3rd quarter highlights
I make that a compound rate of 9.3% over the past five years (calendar). If I'm somewhere near right about that, I could put up with the slightly lower yield on this one!

https://www.dividenddata.co.uk/dividend ... ?epic=ULVR I'm pretty sure use the base currency and offer CAGRs of 7.56% over 5 years and 6.58% & 6.92% for 10 and 15.

Re: Unilever 3rd quarter highlights
Unilever are my largest holding and from time to time I think about top-slicing them but 'masterful inaction' has prevailed so far.

Also my largest holding, price having doubled in five years. It was on a distinctly average yield when I bought it, and continues to be, but in terms of pounds arriving in my account each year, it's delivering more than Vodafone, Glaxo, British Land, Standard Life, and a bunch of other apparently high yielders.
No intention of top-slicing.

Yes I noticed that - which is why I mentioned my basis is slightly different because it is calendar year. I just took it from 4th Dec payout this year, making 141.7p for 2019, from 90.65p to Dec 2014.
Whether it 9% or 7% - both are more than acceptable!

Re: Unilever 3rd quarter highlights
Afternoon all
ULVR is one I have bought on four different occasions at £27.87; £26.87; £31.11; £43.90.
Capital wise, I am up 35% and the annual income generated would currently pay for my home buildings and contents insurance annual premium if I weren't working. Referring to my HYP, we all know that the 'Y'ield isn't 'H'igh, but the 'P'ortfolio bit is important to me as a whole and I like Unilever in there.
Cheers, OLTB.

Absolutely, I often look for shares with a good increase history of income when knocking on the door of high yield, ULVR fills that niche, I see I bought in 2009.

Re: Unilever 3rd quarter highlights
I'm wondering how much an effect a strengthening Sterling might have on the dividend and profit for UK shareholders? Over the last few years Unilever shareholders have see both dividends paid and profits 'flattered' by a weakening Sterling.

Re: Unilever 3rd quarter highlights
My original intention for my monthly top up for this month on 29/10/19 was to top up my BT.A holdings, who seem to be on the up, whereas ULVR are drifting downwards currently. I might just change my plan and top up the later instead. OK, ULVR are a lower yielding share, but I have more faith in them than I do with BT.A. Something to Pickering about over the weekend.

Is it worth trying to second guess currency movements in such volatile times? Maybe better to use a balanced approach - i.e. some dollar earners, some domestic stocks - and let time smooth things out.

Agreed, there will be some swings and roundabouts and the effect on current holdings might broadly balance out. However, I'm focusing on any new buys or (more likely) imminent top ups. Ok, Unilever might not be not be High Yield but I'm not really debating this, I'm putting forward the consideration that one might buy at a certain yield only to see it reduce due to exchange rate movements. The next concern would be that earnings are hit and this leads to a price softening.
With HYP, there isn't usually just one card on the table for selection - perhaps a top up of a HYP share that might benefit from a strengthening pound might be better ?

Better to ignore exchange rates and any potential movements. For a share like Unilever there are so many moving parts as far as exchange rates are concerned. They account in Euros and yet most emerging markets have currencies which are linked one way or another to the US Dollar, and then they pay us in Sterling. It is not just as simple as the exchange rate between the Euro and Sterling.
Much better I think to look at the underlying business and how it is doing. The rest I just ignore. In any case, if you are going to look long term, sterling has tended to weaken against the major other currencies over the long term so it is as well to be invested in companies earning outside of our domestic market.
