14:11		tournesol: Some years ago I was following Beazley with a view to buying when the time was right. I noticed that A Horton - the CEO - bought some shares in the open market for a price somewhere round 92-93p (from memory). I decided to follow in his slipstream and bought next day for about 89p. I was delighted that I paid less than he did. A matter of a few months later I sold at 120p for a very handsome profit in a very short time. I thought I'd done well. fast forward a few years and the shares are 500-600p. A cursory glance at the chart shows that the share price is on a steady upwards multi-year trajectory. I re-entered last year and topped up more recently. This time I'm holding for the long term not ducking out with a quick short term profit.

15:16		tournesol: It's obvious what's going on. Read the results. Look at the share price. Join the dots. FWIW I think there is a massive over-reaction to a forecast short term profit reduction. I have recently trebled my holding.

10:29		analyst008: Good set of results given the current climate. However everyone is looking over their shoulder as to who will be the next Insurance company to be taken over. These are the companies CEO and CFO's who are saying this at a recent dinner. After the Brit takeover, my hunch Beazley could possibly be the next one. I'm not saying that they are, but I can see more consolidation in this sector. Have been following the share price from £2.80 and just now hit £3.36, I reckon there might be further coverage from the analyst.

11:37		typo56: schofip, interesting what you say about a net dividend of 10% non recoverable. Is that an Irish withholding tax? I'm also a bit of a novice but thought UK dividends were declared net and are then grossed up with a dividend credit of 1/9 (which you can offset against income tax if you pay it). You've done okay this time by selling yesterday, because the share price has fallen by more than the 18p ex-div, but quite often this doesn't happen, so it's not a failsafe system!

16:58		v11slr: 10% tax is deducted at source, so you will receive the net amount. This tax deduction can't be reclaimed. Whether you would be better selling before xd depends on the share price performance. Theoretically it should drop by the dividend amount but theory and practice are often widely apart. Then you have to factor in dealing costs and spread to replace the holding whether you buy back in BEZ or another share.

18:46		schofip: Advice needed I have never had a special dividend before. Normally when a company declares a dividend the share price falls by the value of the dividend when it goes ex dividend.Does the same thing happen with a special dividend as well. Also does anybody have a view regarding the director selling 1M shares at this time and what should shareholders make of it.

17:13		ialwayswinatmonopoly: The large transaction of shares mid-day is not a 'sell' - The software on ADVFN shows as a sell as it is identified and categorised automatically, based on the transaction price compared to the bid/offer prices at the time. If the transaction price is closer to the 'buy' then it will be recorded as a 'buy' and visa versa. This is normally accurate but with a few exceptions. One of those exceptions is when the market is very active and the price is bouncing around and the other is when the size of the transaction is extraordinarily large and the order has to be filled over a period of time or manually negotiated. The main reason, in my opinion for the recent hike is just the natural and healthy behaviour of the stock market. Trading was very thin when it made it's way from 268p to 236p and there aren't a lot of trades for the market makers to 'match' as trading pressures push the price back up. You will see on occasions today that the share price 'gapped' i.e., jumped up without any trades been transacted - this happens in shares where there is large price fluctuations over a short space of time (i.e., what has happened with BEZ over the last couple of weeks). From what I can see, the share price behaviour of BEZ is behaving very characteristically and if this continues it should hit circa 268p within the next few weeks. If the price 'bangs it's head' at this price then it will be bound by a rectangular formation of between 268p & 236p. A break through either of these prices will determine the next, long term direction of the share.
