9th Jan 2017 16:25

(ShareCast News) - A second Next director has bought a handful of shares in the retailer as the prince wallowed around four year lows. Senior independent director Francis Salway, the former Land Securities chief who joined the board in 2010, spent just over £50,000 on shares at a price of just over £40. Last week, fellow non-executive Steve Barber bought 2,500 at £41 not long after Next's gloomy trading update sent the shares tumbling from the near-£50 at which they began the year and set a negative tone for UK non-food retail sector.Full price sales were much weaker than the market was expecting and the company issued a cautious outlook for the coming year, leading to widespread downgraded forecasts for this year and beyond.
