A General Electric director made an industrial-sized buy of stock on Feb. 18 and 19 as shares charged to a multiyear high price.
W. Geoffrey Beattie bought 800,000 GE (ticker: GE ) shares for $20,096,000, an average of $25.12 each. Regulatory filings show that Beattie’s buys were made through an unnamed investment company. Beattie now indirectly holds 858,824 GE shares through entities including trusts and the investment company, a stake of less than 1%. His most recent previous transaction was on July 23 when he bought 10,000 shares for $260,100, an average of $26.01 each.
Beattie is chief executive of Generation Capital of Toronto, an investment-management firm, and chairman of Relay Ventures, a mobile-computing-focused venture-capital fund also based in Toronto. Beattie had served as deputy chairman of Thomson Reuters from 2000-2013 and had served as president and chief executive of Woodbridge Co., the Thomson family company that controls Thomson Reuters.
A GE spokesman declined to comment on Beattie’s purchase.
