Nick O'Connor | 2 July 2020 Re: The biggest dividend hike in 2020? Editor’s note: It came to our attention we mistakenly sent you this note with no link to the opportunity we mentioned to secure your special report, Profit from Project Zacatecas: Laying Claim to 15.6 Million Gold Ounces. To claim your special report before the critical 23rd July deadline, click here.   Dear Reader,   2019 already feels like a universe away, with roaring corporate earnings and more than 500 companies boosting their dividends.   The single biggest hike came from a little-known banking firm, with its 78.57% hike topping the charts.   Not bad…   Of course, in these uncertain times, even some of the steadiest blue chips have had to scale back their payouts.   It was reported in April that 45 per cent of UK companies have reduced payouts, costing investors £28.2bn.   Which is why it’s incredible how one company last month ramped up its dividend with a bigger increase than any company managed in 2019.   This isn’t speculation. It’s not a forecast. It’s a promise the company’s board of directors has made.   Of course, there’s one reason this company is so confident…   It’s working on one novel development – involving 5,000 workers – that could eventually lay claim to 15.6 million new gold ounces.   This may seem impossible, in the times of the coronavirus, and the social distancing mandates that come with it.   But as you’ll see, this is no ordinary company.   Not only is it the only one of its kind to be listed on the S&P 500 – it’s not a mask-maker, or diagnostics kit producer, or anything like that.   It doesn’t profit from the coronavirus – not directly at least.   But I know of no other company prepared to explode dividend payouts, and potentially protect investors in these deeply uncertain times.   To see what could be at stake for you before a key 23rd July announcement, click here.   Regards,   Nick O’Connor Publisher, Southbank Investment Research

Important Risk Warning   Before investing you should consider carefully the risks involved, including those described below. If you have any doubt as to suitability or taxation implications, seek independent financial advice.    General – Your capital is at risk when you invest, never risk more than you can afford to lose. Past performance and forecasts are not reliable indicators of future results. Bid/offer spreads, commissions, fees and other charges can reduce returns from investments. There is no guarantee dividends will be paid. Small cap shares - Shares recommended may be small company shares. These can be relatively illiquid meaning they are hard to trade and can have a large bid/offer spread. If you need to sell soon after you bought, you might get back less that you paid. This makes them riskier than other investments.   Taxation - Profits from share dealing are a form of capital gain and subject to taxation. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future. The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate certain activities, including the buying and selling of commodities such as gold. This means that you will not have the protection of the Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. Investment Director: Eoin Treacy.
