    The share price of my EAT holding has certainly moved in recent weeks.

    I've just looked at it on HL and it's certainly moving. restart the browser, use a different browser, restart your computer.

    Interesting I've been looking at this recently.

    High dividend though no doubt enhanced by Brexit and sterling devaluation, looks like a decent option in a very small sector and would add diversification to most portfolios.

    The trust's stated aim is a 6% dividend yield and has been for a number of years AFAIK. Some of that comes from capital.

    My average yield on this since the start of 2014, with an addition in 2015 is about 5.5% with another quarterly dividend due tomorrow.

  • Ive held this for many years along with several of the other F&C trusts, they are reliable well managed and offer relatively good value, not to mention the performance over the years. I would recommend.
