59.63p will do for me ...

[my retirement fund] 28/6/2018 19:48

Yes and at 60p thought there was someone buying at 60.Excellent vote of confidence

Beautiful 😎

A director buying £135,000 worth of HSD shares with his own money is what I call a proper directors buy showing his confidence in the company with a second director purchasing £43,000 worth of HSD shares.

Thanks - will look to buy soon - just need to do a lot more research.

There has already been announced a 50% reduction in the dividend therefore the forward yield is around 7%.

[younasm] 26/6/2018 10:05

What's the situation with dividends - surely these can't be 14% yield going forward?How much of dividend cut is expected ?

[my retirement fund] 26/6/2018 10:03

Firm buyer at 60p looks like we have a floor.

Interesting the Wellcome Trust have been adding over the past few days from 5.359mln (3.90%) shares to 5.526mln (4.02%).

still heading south here

[mister md] 15/6/2018 19:15

Chelverton Asset Management had 2.4m

[typo56] 15/6/2018 17:11

Volume is due to FTSE index move - demoted from Small Cap & AllShare index.

[mister md] 15/6/2018 17:01

2.4m UT trade ?

[hugepants] 12/6/2018 14:54

yes looking slightly more encouraging here

[mister md] 11/6/2018 17:31

A 25k share buy showed late. Purchased at same time as 20k. Shareprice hopefully bottoming out here

[bizana] 11/6/2018 17:00

My guess is Milton.
Look at their catastrophic decision to sell down VRS.

I have been in HSD for5+ years. Great div while share price held steady.Now, at an all time low, why, I wonder, should I any confidence?

[mister md] 11/6/2018 16:35

In fact looks more like shorting with all those small sell trades, especially into the close each day ?

[mister md] 11/6/2018 11:47

Seller still active ? Wonder how long it will take to clear

The Bahamas operation is in addition to the IoM not in place of it, although inevitable I suppose that some work will migrate.

Hansard’s Bahamas move branded ‘disappointing’ By Kirsten Hastings:

Senior figures in the Isle of Man life insurance sector have criticised Hansard’s decision to set up a company in the Bahamas, which the insurer admits was partly driven by the looming commission disclosure rules.

[hugepants] 08/6/2018 12:34

Id suggest yes

[mister md] 08/6/2018 12:27

Shouldn't they be putting out an RNS regarding the sharp share price decline, even if its of the 'we know of no reason' sort ?

[mister md] 08/6/2018 12:18

exactly. would be very concerning if it was, but very unlikely

[loganair] 08/6/2018 12:03

I would doubt very much if the seller is anything with the name Polonsky in it or The Wellcome Trust or the employee benefit trust.

[mister md] 08/6/2018 10:59

This is all I could find, don't know how up-to-date. Take your pick as to who the seller could be ?
