Yes, suppose we will now see how much that has helped to under pin the price.

[dumpling] 07/8/2007 14:41

Yes. See "Transactions in own Shares" 18/7/07.

I am i right in thinking the buy backs have now run there couse? cheers

[jonak] 02/8/2007 20:52

yep, me too

Bear Sterns, Semour Pierce, Numis and Evolution Securities all downgraded this stock in May. If I own a stock and it then recieves a BUY note from a broker I inwardly groan.

smashing share price performance recently

[bloodsports] 25/6/2007 14:54

The buy backs seem to only slow the fal in share price. Any reason for the falls that you know of?

[dumpling] 01/6/2007 17:22

Another 150,000 bought back.

[bloodsports] 30/5/2007 12:09

She taking a kicking last few days- hope they still buying back the shares!

Yesterday's trading statement was hardly exciting, midly reassuring I suppose, but the market seemed to like it.

[rutt] 25/4/2007 16:07

good solid gains today and now broken away from previous highs

[dumpling] 11/4/2007 14:46

They have certainly bounced back -I was losing on these 3 weeks ago.

[bloodsports] 11/4/2007 09:05

this a result of the share buy backs? it could be.

[madbadtrader] 05/4/2007 09:08

Good call rutt, it's looking good.

[rutt] 05/4/2007 08:37

a breakout potential today

[jonak] 21/3/2007 19:10

is this right? 30% of BRE owned by Equity Partnership Inv Co PLC ?

[jonak] 14/3/2007 18:30

bloody hell, a 20p plus drop on an ex div of 9.5p
its crazy out there...

time to get the cash stash ready for more buys I guess.....

[chris79] 06/3/2007 21:37

sounds painful

[gucci] 06/3/2007 21:32

generally good but few issues re hurricane
will stand back for now

[bloodsports] 06/3/2007 13:53

What you think of results? they seem fine but got to admit i dont really understand some of the forcasts/figure e.g. this forcast of- 'falling to' 86 combined ratio (or something)slightly worse than expected?

cheers

[gucci] 06/3/2007 10:26

waiting for 280p

[gucci] 01/3/2007 12:17

280p would be good

[dumpling] 23/2/2007 15:57

The divi was juicy when I bought them.

[jonak] 22/2/2007 20:23

Hardy underwriting ?
PE 18, Y 3% ?

[dumpling] 22/2/2007 17:00

450k buy today. We don't hear of acquisitions in the non-life insurance sector. Perhaps we are in for a surprise. I also have HWY and HDU. HWY is a shade risky but HDU is a class stock - juicy divis as well.
