Up 8.7% in a week but still yielding 8.6% - Legal & General shares are red hot right now!

Legal & General (LSE: LGEN) shares have taken off over the past week, rising 8.7% without any fresh company news to explain the rally. That’s a rare burst of energy for this dependable dividend payer. One that will have dividend income investors paying attention. The FTSE 100 insurer and asset manager offers one of the most generous yields in the index with a trailing yield of 8.74%.
Hunting for income shares to buy after the market dip? Then remember this

Income shares have suddenly become a lot more interesting after the recent market turbulence. While some investors remain nervous, this could be a golden moment to go hunting for quality dividend stocks at cut prices. There’s still plenty of uncertainty out there. Donald Trump’s decision to pause new trade tariffs for 90 days has calmed things slightly, while hopes of a UK-US trade deal soon have lifted spirits. But things remain fragile, and investors are understandably cautious.

BAE Systems (LSE: BA) shares have soared this year. Since I hold the FTSE 100 defence contractor in my self-invested personal pension (SIPP), its success has been a joy to watch. Especially given the mayhem elsewhere. This follows an underwhelming 2024. I bought the stock just before last year’s dip (frustratingly), but I’m not complaining now. The BAE Systems share price has been one of the UK’s star performers in 2025. Since markets opened in January, the shares have climbed an astonishing 48%.

The FTSE 100 is fighting back - and I’m going all in

4 days ago | fool.co.uk | Harvey Jones

The FTSE 100 has been all over the shop lately. Like every other market, it’s taken a hit from Donald Trump’s trade tariffs. Although maybe it’s not wobbled quite as much as people think. I just checked how the UK’s blue-chip index performed last week and surprisingly, it climbed 4.6%, clawing back most of its recent losses. Things are tough, but not catastrophic. Over the past 12 months, the FTSE 100 has edged up 5%, with total returns pushing closer to 9% once dividends are included.
