Charles L. Ladner

Charles L. Ladner has filed trades across 10 companies (mainly through SEC (Form 4)), most often in John Hancock Premium Dividend Fund, John Hancock Preferred Income Fund and John Hancock Tax-Advantaged Global Shareholder Yield Fund. In total, 15 filings cover trades dated from 7 February 2006 to 27 July 2011.

On the open market, the record shows 3 purchases worth €35k and 4 sales worth €14k. On balance, insiders were net buyers of €21k. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. The rest of the record consists of 4 share grants. In 2011 alone, the filings show 1 purchase and no sales.

Half of the purchases are above €13k and half below.

Most recently, on 18 August 2011, the filings show an open-market purchase worth €14k in John Hancock Diversified Income Fund. Typically, a trade is published a median of 28 days after it takes place. The legal deadline for a Form 4 is two business days after the transaction. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.
