I don't think so, the record date was given as the 14th but I'm pretty sure you can't buy now as the ex-div is today and surely that's just free money essentially?

If you can then I'll pile in for more immediately!!! But I don't think so.

Can u still qualify for the ex. Divd, if you buy and hold today?

[funkmasterp12] 11/6/2013 21:59

So from what I can tell, the HR Director (Alan Cairns) and the Company Secretary (Darren Drabble) and their significant others (I guess?) have sold some shares.

The RNS at 15:22 says that Sally James (Simon Nixon's replacement) has purchased some shares.

Looks like one (or more) of a) standard director deals, b) more board changes are afoot or c) there could be some more news to come RE how SN's holding is being distributed and/or changes in holdings related to this? Not sure - the RNS re SN's departure talked about 'normalising the company's shareholding structure'. Doesn't discourage me at all personally though - clearly some change at the top but nothing to be too concerned about - the fundamentals remain strong with no signs of change.

Anyone made any sense of the Director deals today?

[funkmasterp12] 11/6/2013 16:45

Hard to make total sense of the RNS's at the moment given SN's departure but it looks like we had news of another Director buy today - 20,000 shares @ 203p.

Ex-div tomorrow (12.96p).

See traderdiary.co.uk has spotted MONY.See if he goes in

[funkmasterp12] 05/6/2013 11:12

Yes - the special divi will be paid to all shareholders on the register before close 11th June, record date is 14th June. If you hold by the 11th, you'll be entitled to the divi (don't forget the share price will drop c. 13p on the 12th)

The 2nd RNS today re SN's 80m shares is a bit confusing but the 1st RNS does clearly say the divi will be paid to all shareholders.

[scottishfield] 05/6/2013 10:40

Funk , if I buy now (not currently a holder) & hold till after 14th I get the divi, is that correct?

[funkmasterp12] 05/6/2013 07:56

Superb news on the Interim Divi today and an interesting development on the Nixon front. Very interesting!

[funkmasterp12] 17/5/2013 06:32

There's a brilliant double-page spread interview with Peter Plumb in this week's Shares magazine which comes with a whopping Buy recommendation - this might explain in part the strength in recent days. Well worth a trip to your local WhSmith!

[adelwire2] 15/5/2013 19:23

v promising. So what kicked in at 3pm today then...more pl

[funkmasterp12] 14/5/2013 21:02

Ah. Near enough ;) But yes looks good!

[fugwit] 14/5/2013 19:44

ATH was in Oct 2007 at 223.25p. Certainly looks like it is going to be tested though.

[funkmasterp12] 14/5/2013 14:55

Up through the all-time high here! Superb.

At 9:05am: Moneysupermarket share price was up 1.85 pence at 202.35 pence.

[funkmasterp12] 24/4/2013 11:07

Huge upgrade to 'Buy' from Jeffries this morning - target price raised from 150p to 248p!

Great to see consensus improving here. Onwards to 210p and beyond we go.

[funkmasterp12] 19/4/2013 12:17

Back on the up! Resistance is 210p, with the strong IMS we should be heading back there soon.

[birdsedgeuk] 17/4/2013 17:29

Shows www.traderdiary.co.uk was spot on today with MONY

[funkmasterp12] 17/4/2013 14:50

Some good Broker movements today:

Canaccord - Buy, 226p target
N+1 Singer - Buy, 220p target
Westhouse - Add (upgrade), 210p target

[funkmasterp12] 17/4/2013 07:36

Strong results. What really excites me here is the cash these guys are generating - already at 26m compared to 18m in the YE results, that's nearly a 50% increase in 3 months! I would say this clears the way for another special divi in the summer imo, especially with trading comfortably in line and new areas beginning to flourish.Back to 200p and beyond!

[funkmasterp12] 08/4/2013 19:15

Tough day - 2nd support being tested but in a sea of market red, any high beta stock is going to come under pressure. Happy to hold here regardless as the fundamentals remain strong.Also, it looks as if a delayed 500k buy went through at the close, which is very intriguing - that's a £940k buy.. small change for someone!

[stavros28] 21/3/2013 20:01
