CAPE TOWN - CAPITAL & Regional, landlord of seven regional shopping centres in the UK, said yesterday that the end of the second national lockdown in the UK, was encouraging.
The share price shot up 10.43 percent to close at R14.29 on the JSE yesterday following the release of the announcement.
Ninety-eight percent of its units were open, the UK-listed real estate investment group with a secondary JSE listing, said in an update yesterday. Chief executive Lawrence Hutchings said this was even though some form of government restrictions were likely to continue for a period of time.
The three dividend shares I would buy today

This year has generally not been a great one for dividend shares. Many of the best yield-paying
FTSE 100 firms were forced to cut or suspend their payouts. However, as we head into 2021 with a vaccine being rolled out, things may be looking up.
What do I look for in dividend shares?
When choosing the best dividend shares, I consider a number of criteria. I want my capital to be safe, so I look for solid firms with good brands and good financial history. I want to have seen consistent dividend growth, though 2020 is a blip I can forgive. Then, of course, I want something that is yielding well right now. With that in mind, here are my top three UK choices right now.
RISK WARNINGS AND DISCLAIMERS
The value of stocks and shares and any dividend income, may fall as well as rise, and is not guaranteed so you may get back less than you invested. You should not invest any money you can’t afford to lose and should not rely on any dividend income to meet your living expenses. Stocks listed on overseas exchanges may be subject to additional dealing and exchange rate charges, administrative costs, withholding taxes, different accounting and reporting standards, may have other tax implications, and may not provide the same, or any, regulatory protection. Exchange rate charges may adversely affect the value of shares in sterling terms, and you could lose money in sterling even if the stock rises in the currency of origin. Any performance statistics that do not adjust for exchange rate changes are likely to result in inaccurate real returns for sterling-based UK investors.
