Nick Watkins

Nick Watkins discloses dealings in EJF Investments Ltd to RNS (LSE). Between 3 September 2019 and 14 January 2025, the trades on record add up to 3 filings.

Purchases make up the whole of the open-market record (3 purchases, €32k). A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. 2025 to date brings 1 purchase and no sales.

A typical purchase (the median) is worth €11k. On 1 out of 3 purchases, another insider of the same company was buying within the same 30 days. Such overlaps are known as a cluster signal: distinct people reaching the same decision at about the same time. For 3 purchases whose 90-day window has closed, the share price was higher on day 90 than the day after publication in 33% of cases, with a median move of -1.5%. They describe history only and say nothing certain about the share price ahead.

On 14 January 2025 came the latest disclosure, an open-market purchase for €15k in EJF Investments Ltd. The median gap between trade and publication is zero days: most filings appear on the same day. For comparison, UK MAR gives managers three business days to notify a trade. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by RNS (LSE). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
