LONDON (ShareCast) - The chairman of Athelney Trust has sold his entire holding in the small cap-focused investment trust, the company said on Friday.
Hugo Deschampsneufs offloaded his 78,038 shares in Athelney at a price of 201p each, raising £156,856.
His move follows a 21% drop in Athelney's share price over the last year.
Athelney's full-year results in March showed a 4% rise in the audited net asset value to 228p per share.
Speaking at the time of results, Deschampsneufs said 2015 was likely to be a "tricky year".
"My opinion, for what it is worth, is that smaller companies are better value than blue chips and that, with a decent tail wind, a modest uplift in asset prices of equities and commercial property is the most likely outcome," he said.
