RE:Div makes this attractiveI am a new shareholder. Bought my shares a few days before the Sept 29th, the ex-dividend date. What I liked about SNN was...
Covid-19 was made public on Jan 25th 2020, SNN share price on Jan 26th 2020 closed at $50.57. The high for the past year Nov 5th 2021 was $37.15. Both past share prices make SNN + dividend seem like a bargain. We all saw our hospitals over capacity with ill covid patients, while others who needed surgery, hips and knees for example, were delayed indefinitely. Brexit, Covid-19, and British Parliament shenanigans have also contributed negatively to the share price. Going forward Smith & Nephew should see their business take a turn for the better providing we do not see a repeat of Covid. Will buy more shares when I can.
