There semms to be some confusion on this thread. By law we now have fixes-term parliaments with the current one finishing in 2022. For this to be changed it would take a vote in the House of Commons with a two-thirds majority in favour. Does anyone really believe that Conservative MP's and or the DUP will vote in favour?

You don't need a government HTB scheme to sell shared equity. Does Porsche know that?

Bought in again recently to get the dividend but sold out yesterday lunch time at a slight loss (more than covered by the dividend payment). Be careful buying in again - under the old scenario £5 would have been a good entry point, however the environment is now very different with either a "no-deal" Brexit or a re-run of the referendum both possibilities. To state the bleedin' obvious "markets hate uncertainty" and we have bucketloads of uncertainty at the moment. Time to keep powder dry and resist the temptation to buy in until there is either some stability or positive news to support the price. My opinion only - DYOR and all that.

Well i'm on again at 5 quid.Also bought some TW.10% stop.If Corbyn gets in that we will be hit.Not for long though because Starmer is driving the bus.

Porsche/taffeta in all honesty looking at the 3 and 5 chart i find it hard to be believe you have scalped anything.You would of had to pay back at least 1.50 in dividends.I will assume you are short from 5 as of today.Lets see how that goes.

Porsche1945 I think you may be half right.

[porsche1945] 15/11/2018 10:24

salver. loving tbis 8 pc cent drop, how much have you lost?? labour gov in by spring, end of help to buy, these back to a quid.

[salver2] 13/11/2018 17:45

I’m loving this 4 percent rise Porsche and taffee being burnt to cinders

[rwlly] 12/11/2018 13:06

Seems as if this dead cat is bouncing all over the place.

[taffee] 09/11/2018 10:46

no... the smart people BANK profits by closing short trades...something bulls cannot grasp it seems

Any rise is another selling opportunity..like NOW!

barratt is in a bear market

[salver2] 08/11/2018 17:03

Taffee and Porsche unnaturally quiet they must be a pile of ashes by now - what a useless duo

[salver2] 02/11/2018 13:51

It should read taffee

[salver2] 02/11/2018 13:50

There’s a smell of burnt taffeta everywhere and Porsche has just blown up!!

[gorse] 01/11/2018 11:58

Housebuilders having a nice run this week. Dividend _ special from BDEV, Nov 6. 36p or so.

[gorse] 01/11/2018 11:57

Yes, taffee should give a progress report.

[taffee] 22/10/2018 05:21

But I'm well up on bdev/builders selling short.that's likely to continue

Like I said bulls are in denial including you

[snakeoilsalesman] 21/10/2018 21:13

Taffee,you need to print your own money the amount you have lost shorting at the wrong time.Porsche is you right?

[porsche1945] 21/10/2018 19:31

Yeah I saw the Telford note, they are down from 5 quid to 3, that note along with Crest Nicholsons suicide note and some worrying holes in the Barratt release is the beginning of the end, my only surprise to be honest is that it has taken about six months longer than I thought for builders to really start getting hammered. Wont stop daft punters chasing the dividend tho. Travis Perkins another good building related short, they have lost about half their value and word on the ether is are struggling to get insurance cover.

[taffee] 20/10/2018 05:23

Smart money was out of property some time ago..now the penny has dropped selling short is a license to print money..sell the rallies

Bulls are in denial read Telford homes trading statement for clues

[porsche1945] 19/10/2018 16:21

Tidal wave of short selling is destroying the builders....get on board....money to be made shorting this stuff....Persimmon a good target, cheap nasty houses in cheap nasty places, ripe for a hammering. Surprised this didnt start sooner...but a full on get out quick job now.

Barratt Developments (BDEV)

Selling Flats before Xmas which are ready at very good discount to clear back log.

This may be tanking under Brexit pressure and higher interest rates. Also Help to buy is time Bomb waiting to blast after initial 5 years No interest period. DYOR.

[vatteton] 13/10/2018 14:56

BWY prelims 16/10 & BDEV trading statement 17/10..

[porsche1945] 13/10/2018 14:31

....and, 10 years ago hardly ancient history, except last time it was just rates and recession and end of cheap money that did for Barratt, this time you have all those and the removal of help to sell scheme pulling the supports away, amazed how people always seem to think, this time its different. Telford homes tanking 11 per cent last two days, Ceo put out a statement saying brexit now hitting their business hard. I ll be honest, i have made good, serious money shorting Barratt, TW and Redrow this time and last time, so watching them tank is in my interest.
