And so I arrived towards the end of the next quarter. Things were still difficult for me financially, but I had about £350 sitting in the dealing account from dividends and partially from the Pace shares. So I only had to add £650 top up.
In April 2015, Pace and Arris announced a Recommended Cash and Share offer for the share capital of Pace. This meant there was a "Scheme of arrangement" for the shares I held. My Pace shares were showing a small loss, so I decided to stick it out. Finally, in January 2016 I received cash of £323.30 plus 36 Shares in Arris. Arris was quoted in one of the US stock markets, so this was a share I would be looking to sell if I could show a profit, even if small.
Since the last purchase I received the following dividends:
GlaxoSmithKline - £13.68
Pace - £9.69
Total dividend income since 6 April 2015 - £182.04
I already had shares in mining, which was not doing well, so I figured the sector was low so perhaps this was a good time to buy more but in another company in this sector.
I choose to purchased shares in Anglo American (EPIC: AAL). Mining Copper, Platinum, Diamonds, Coal, Iron ore and Manganese and Nickel, the company had been around since 1917.

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
