Insurer Direct Line. Morgan Stanley cut its price target to 435p from 452p to reflect the payment of the FY17 dividend.Cut to 435p.That will do me very nicely.And that is where the share price will be going.Good time to top up with the dividend money.

Huge divi to be paid / reinvested on Thursday - a low price now suits the large investors - expect a recovery from 17th may onwards

I guess just 'profit taking' then. Fail to understand why DLG is so poorly valued considering current market resurgence.

My 3 largest holdings getting hammered today these, SLA and BT.A. The latter the fall out from recent results, although, didn't think they were too bad, but, like others have said the fall here appears to be for no reason.

Now down 3% today for no apparent reason. What the fug!!?!

[sundial1] 14/5/2018 14:11

[woodhawk] 14/5/2018 11:56

No idea either.

pH1Ts - So she did. Thanks for pointing that out. That'll teach me to scroll to the end of an rns next time! I will amend my post above accordingly.

Speedsgh She sold them from her SIPP then bought some back, but not in her pension.

[speedsgh] 04/5/2018 11:43

NED Jane Hanson has sold her entire SIPP holding and bought a proportion back outside her SIPP...

Director/PDMR Shareholding -

3/5/18 Jane Hanson (NED) sold 26,190 @ 359.682p = £94,200
3/5/18 Jane Hanson (NED) bought 11,083 @ 360.9p = £39,999

It's another that looks to have been heavily oversold to me. Just a slight wobble and the market cap is (temporarily) decimated! Still, good profits for those who can pick the bottoms! Onwards and upwards!!

[garycook] 03/5/2018 10:19

W,Very true.See the MM,s playing with RWS this morning.

[woodhawk] 03/5/2018 10:07

You can worry forever about revisitng the lows with ANY share.

[eaaxs06] 03/5/2018 09:51

I'm sure you'll all do well long term with those buys around the 360p level.

My only concern is a bit of broad market pullback (which is very overdue) and the possible re-visit of the 340p lows from xd day.

Good luck everyone.

[woodhawk] 03/5/2018 09:04

My buys have been rather more modest, Gary - although I'm now back to my maximum holding at DLG again.

BTW, some odd action at RWS this a.m. so I'm hoping it will start to move north again soon.

[garycook] 03/5/2018 08:59

O Trade purchase of 132.000 shares at 8.40am.Someone knows a bargain.Or could be a sell Woody.I will take it as a buy !

[woodhawk] 03/5/2018 08:48

Yes, I'm heartbroken, I must try harder not to buy cheap shares and then go and make profits on them. Where, oh where, did I go so wrong?

...oh, I see what you mean (amended)!!

[eaaxs06] 03/5/2018 08:47

You were robbed, Woodhawk.

[woodhawk] 03/5/2018 08:45

So JPMorgan's target is circa 20% more than the current share price AND they're Neutral? How does that work?

Bought some more at 359p.

[cwa1] 03/5/2018 08:10

Taken a small nibble at 357p

Direct Line Downgraded to Neutral at JPMorgan; PT 4.30 Pounds

[doubleorquits] 02/5/2018 11:30

Both Numis and Peel hunt reiterate their previous targets and recommend "Add"

[garycook] 02/5/2018 11:11

W,Wise move. I now have 8,000 shares owing me 334p,with Divi,s reinvested.DLG should go to £4 plus in its own time.I wish you all the best with RWS.GC
