Insurance, wealth, and retirement company Aviva (LSE: AV) looks like a good stock for creating a second income via shareholder dividends. The firm operates in the UK, Canada, and Ireland, and I reckon it’s a bit of a gem in the FTSE 100 index. The valuation has been modest for some time. However, the ...

Aviva’s (LSE: AV.) share price has risen around 33% since its 12-month low of £3.66 on 8 September. This raises the questions of whether there is any value left in the stock and if so, how much? What is the fair price of the shares? On the key price-to-earnings (P/E) valuation measurement, Aviva currently ...

Aviva (LSE: AV.) shares are a very popular investment at the moment. On Hargreaves Lansdown’s platform, they were among the top 10 Stocks and Shares ISA investments in the first 10 days of the 2024/2025 tax year.

Early April saw Aviva (LSE: AV) shares flirt with the £5 mark. They failed to break it and since then have retracted. But now at just £4.66 a piece, are they one of the best bargains available to investors on the FTSE 100? The Aviva share price has been on a tear recently and it’s easy to see why some ...

I think the best way to top up my State Pension in retirement is to build a portfolio of dividend-paying FTSE 100 income stocks. I’m getting some brilliant yields, plus the prospect of share price growth over time. Insurer Legal & General Group, for example, pays me income of 8.68% a year. Wealth manager ...

It really looked like the Aviva (LSE: AV.) share price was going to break above £5 for the first time since the March 2020 global market crash. Technically, it did for all of one minute at the beginning of April. But I’m not counting that. Will the stock be retesting that level again soon or will it ...

The UK financial services sector certainly has some juicy dividend yields right now. Insurer Aviva (LSE: AV) yields 7.2%, for example.

The Aviva (LSE: AV.) share price is staying stubbornly low. So what might shift it? I can see a few things. But I reckon dividends, if they’re paid in line with forecasts for the next few years, could be just the thing to give it a helping hand. Refocus Aviva had been a bit of a disappointment for some ...

Aviva (LSE: AV.) shares are up 12.5% in the last six months. They did drop around 6% on 11 April, though, as they went ‘ex-dividend’. This simply means investors buying the stock today aren’t entitled to the next cash dividend due to be paid out on 23 May. I became an Aviva shareholder in November and ...

There can be something pleasing about owning a stake in a large, successful company that also has a juicy dividend. Take FTSE 100 insurer Aviva (LSE: AV) as an example. Despite the Aviva dividend being cut several years ago, the shares still yield 7.3%. How secure is the dividend – and could it go higher ...

Two income stocks I reckon investors should seriously consider buying for dividends and growth are HSBC (LSE: HSBA) and Aviva (LSE: AV.). Here’s why! HSBC As one of the world’s biggest banks, HSBC is a no-brainer buy in my eyes. Despite economic turbulence hampering financial services stocks, HSBC shares ...

I didn’t buy any Aviva (LSE: AV.) shares a year ago, but I did pick some up back in November. From both points in time, they’ve performed well. But how well exactly?

FTSE insurer Aviva (LSE: AV) has long been a core holding in my portfolio of shares that pay high dividends. After I turned 50, I significantly boosted the size of these high-yield investments, largely by selling growth stocks I owned. The idea is to maximise the regular stream of dividend income, so ...

Global stock markets started the year well. The S&P 500 is up 9.1%, while the Japanese TOPIX has leapt 14.2%. However, the FTSE 100 has added just 2.3% this year.
