Time was flying by and another quarter was arriving. Since the last purchase I received the following dividends:
Pace plc - £7.54
SSE - £40.17
Royal Dutch Shell B - £13.29
Total dividend income since 6 April 2015 - £81.64
I did not have enough spare cash to use to purchase another share, so I decided to sell the Persimmon Plc shares, Investment No 5. These shares actually cost me £1,011.66 including all charges, and I received £1,162.49 after charges. A net profit of £150.83 (15%). Including dividends, I received the profit totalled of £204.03 (20%) . I thought it was pretty good for a share held for just over 6 months, certainly better than leaving it sitting on deposit.
So I purchased shares in Centrica (EPIC: CNA). They were due to go ex-dividend on the 1 October so I would receive this in November.
Centrica was in the Gas, Water & Multiutilities sector. The were focused on energy and home related services. Key markets were in Britain, Spain, Belgium, Canada and the USA.

I like to invest in stock and shares on the stock market. I am interested in getting the most from the Internet, interior ideas and of course shopping ........ My thoughts, ideas and suggestions on whatever comes me. As I cannot save every website I would like to return to in my favourites, I shall be writing a short blog with a link, and save this website to my favourite instead. If you like the links, please follow my blog and perhaps me too
