The price is right because that's what the shares are worth on the open market. Doesn't matter what analysts think. Most of the time you can find totally oposite views. You buy and sell at the prevailing price and the divi just doesn't do it for me. For me its a bit of gamling and as long as my financial advisor keeps getting me 20% anual return it will stay that way.

Can't see a bid, Wood holds too many to make an offer - least of all by a company he had previously set up. Think it will drift a bit lower in the next couple of weeks then pick up a bit towards the xd date. Most broker targets still seem to be around the 250 level.

I think the company is well run, its a case of waiting for the market to harden - how long this will take is anyones guess.

This is just too weak as though it is desperate to hit 200p sooner...

Well Invesco generally know what they are doing, and I think they fit into the general description of a "big boy". So the share price is right today, and will be right in a few weeks too....

Having shaken away some of the shareholders who fail to understand what investment and good management are about, Esure will soon start to be bid back up by the big boys who understand that this is one of the best managed companies in the sector. Even in difficult times they have produced remarkably good figures and have a very sound structure. Dividend is extremely strong and prospects for improvement from this base will be hard to resist.
So I expect to see upward movement as we head towards the ex-dividend date. And by the way, of course the share price is always right. So it was right when the price was 230+ and then it was right when it was 20 pence lower just a matter of minutes later. Investment management is all about timing, and sometimes one has to work out why share prices are doing what they do in order to take best advantage of situations.

The share price is always right, everything else is hope or an attempt to justify bad advise.

Doubt the downgrade will have helped. I think its a good bet for the next 2-3 years assuming that the market picks up at some point. Just have to ignore the share price and think of the dividend.

Thats some drop and recovery this morning. Hard to see why they are were so badly hit. Perhaps its the forward looking comments about claims inflation affecting the future COR.

I hold these for the yield - have to doubt whether the payout ration of 85% is sustainable.

Rather surprising price action here given the reaction to rather underwhelming results at Admiral.
If I didn't own the non life insurer Lancashire which yields over 10% with its constant stream of huge special divis I would be tempted to take some here.

Current PER at yesterdays closing price is circa 12 with a yield of 7.1%. Solid hold for me.

How do these guys get any business!!!
As I have a shed load of these shares thought I would give them a chance to have my wife and my car insurance.Both retired, donkeys years of no claims.
quote 20% higher than my renewal from Churchill.
Cant even get a quote without putting in a fictitious "how you heard of them"
Beginning to question why I own so many of these.
