All housebuliders getting hammered today as the self harming impverishing brexit sxxtshow rolls on, uk a basket case, currency trashed, if it goes on housing market is going to tank, just too risky to go near at mo with the brexit mess, Woodford will be getting hurt again as his back brexit britain investment strategy continues down the toilet.

With the upsurge last week, it now appears to be capitalised
higher than PSN.

It did move up sharply from 560p while I was thinking about it! But as it's already my largest holding I'm quite happy about it.

[woodhawk] 10/7/2019 11:28

Not my biggest holding, but certainly one of the larger ones. I'm in the same boat as you, but severely tempted, tho' my indicators suggest I should wait... dither, dither....

[barnesian] 10/7/2019 10:14

I agree it's very tempting to top up. But this share is already the biggest holding in my portfolio. I'm still tempted. I suspect the share price will move up sharply while I'm still thinking about it!

So am I, Barnesian. BDEV trading statement is excellent, and BVS good yesterday too. Debating whether to add to my holding here.

"Profit before tax expected to be ahead of market expectations" Very good trading update. I'm surprised the share price hasn't gone higher.

[longwell] 10/7/2019 07:57

Good update, will rise into sept/oct for divi now.

[vatteton] 09/7/2019 10:09

Yes, let's hope Barratt's is as good tomorrow.

[woodhawk] 09/7/2019 08:59

Good to see BVS with a very positive trading statement today. Should bode well for the other housebuilders.

[vatteton] 06/7/2019 09:57

All I'm saying is that I believe that trade a buy, went through at around 11.50am
and the market deemed it significant enough to delay it until the UT book closed.
I'm not suggesting anything else other than to keep a stable price.

[woodhawk] 06/7/2019 09:10

So what? It's a circa six billion £ company.

[vatteton] 06/7/2019 08:42

View it whichever way, however it was an OB transaction worth £1.6mll

No... other than you, nor I, have no real idea what it was (buy or sell) - because it will have been delayed. In any event, it is of little consequence either way.

[vatteton] 05/7/2019 18:31

Any comments on the 278,050k buy that went through @ 17.44pm

[spcecks] 10/6/2019 09:59

Thanks for your views .....decided just to hold and accumulate if shares fall as good company and dividend.

[vatteton] 10/6/2019 09:39

I certainly agree with the first part, not so sure about the second part.

[salver2] 10/6/2019 09:33

Papers just talk rubbish no 1 point - what have shorters got to do with the fundamentals of the co - nothing - most shorters lose money!

[spcecks] 09/6/2019 13:29

Anyone any opinion on wether to sell because of Neill Woodford maybe having to do so.....also papers are saying shorters are coming in.

[salver2] 28/5/2019 16:53

Good to see you back saying the same thing for last ten years!

[taffee] 27/5/2019 05:41

The update used lots of strong and positive words but in reality the growth is hardly startling and number of sites seems the same as last year at 388

All this in the greatest sweetspot for builders in history

Hence its only down from here for the shareprice imo

Labour government and builders are toast
