Grid finance chief sells again
A round-up of the biggest director deals today so far.
Gas and electricity network operator National Grid has sailed through the turbulence of the past year relatively unscathed.
The share price now is still lower than this time in 2008, but has bounced strongly since April and finance director Steve Lucas is taking advantage to sell his second chunk of shares in little over a month.
Today he sold 41,000 shares at 608p, to net £249,000, to follow the sale of 36,000 shares at 578p in August.
